Project Christmas 2011 ~ Jingle Belles (Softly Falling Snow)

It has been a while that I took part in challenges, as I said, I wasn't in a crafty mood lately

Well, I finally make a card for Jingle Belles

this week's theme is "Softly Falling Snow"

pop over to Jingle Belles for details

When I think of the word "SOFT", I think of Melissa Frances...

I think of lacey doily...

I think of pearl and crinkled ribbon.....

I also think of tulle and lovely roses...

here's my "softly falling snow" christmas card for Jingle Belles

everything I used for here is from Pixie Dust Paperie September Kit "Tecolote", including the package backing....

you can get "Tecolote" at The Pixie Shop

buy it now with a 15% discount today, the code to use is Tecolote-Oct-23

and then join in the fun over at Jingle Belles

LESSology challenge 4 ~ Wall Art

Hi, I am sharing a project for LESSology Challenge #4 - Wall Art

If you haven't know yet, one of my dream is to live by the ocean, but too bad, I am living in the desert right now! : (

To get one step closer to my dream, I actually decorated my bathroom with a beach theme, but I couldn't find anything I like for the wall next to the bath tub, so I created one

a frame bought from thrift store, painted white and a little cracked effect

and now the recycling part, don't we all have maps from our last road trips?

Tada........

ahhhh..... now I feel closer to the seaside, I can even hear the waves......

Come on join us at LESSology Challenge 4 - Wall Art

Our sponsor for this challenge is

Tradefish Designs

Tradefish Designs is generously offering our winner a $20 gift certificate to the Tradefish Designs store.

Hop right over to LESSology to see the lovely work of the design team
