Simply Betty 12 Days of Christmas - Day 3

Hello, all! Here is another day in the 12 Days of Christmas over at Simply Betty Stamps.

No home is complete for the Holidays without a Christmas wreath right?

So.. today we challenge you to create a project and put a Wicked Wreath in it! You can even make it an actual Wreath! Like Jack Skellington says...

“A man-eating plant makes a wonderful wreath… as long as you don’t get caught in its teeth.”

Isn't that just cheery and cute! HA! 
Today we have a third new Non released digi from our upcoming __________________ line! Like the two prizes before, these are brand spankin' new, their release will be next year! You won't want to miss this one either!

 

For this challenge, I made a wreath ornament.

Jack Skellington Wreath Ornament. I bought some cheap wreath ornaments from the dollar section at one of my local stores and covered it with gray yarn. I added a large glittery snowflake and a Burton Chibi Digi Stamp to the middle. The "ornaments" are glittered brads that I had in my stash.

Saturday Steampunk

Hello, all! And welcome to another Saturday Steampunk! I have a project to share with you that I have been planning to do for a while but haven't had the chance to complete until recently. I had planned to make this around Valentine's Day but here we are more than a month later! Lol! I'm also sharing a layout I did for a couple of challenges below.

Steampunk Heart Ornament. This started off as a paper mache heart; which you can find at most craft stores. I cut slits in the heart where I wanted gears to come out. I covered the entire heart in Bronze UTEE and heated it until I got this hammered metal look. I used hot glue to set the gears in place in the slits (Gears are from Tim Holtz and 7 Gypsies). Then I add some ribbon roses I made and assorted Prima flowers in aquas and oranges, plus some more gears. I cut out a butterfly from some Graphic 45 Steampunk Debutante (which is what inspired the color scheme) paper and glued it onto the flowers.

Friendship layout. This layout was created to enter in the Scrap Your Faves Challenge (Lift of Kaye222's Cute As A Button) and the Cosmo Cricket Challenge at scrapbook.com. The Cosmo Cricket papers I used are all from the Halfway Cafe Collection. I used my Cricut Expression to cute the circles, frame, and background, the title is Thickers Glitter Rainboots and the flowers are Prima. And of course, I added Stickles in Turquoise.

Correction: I was notified that the above layout was not allowed into the Cosmo Cricket Challenge because it was not 90% Cosmo Cricket products. Oh, Well!
