Card of the Week: Fabulous by DeeDee Campbell from Scrappin' With DeeDee
It' is FABULOUS!!!!! I'm really late on my birthday thank you notes and I'm really drawn to this card. What better way to tell your girlfriends that you think they are awesome than with a pink car card?! LOL -- seriously, you'll never find anything this great at your local Hallmark store. This card really is FABULOUS. :D Dee is fab too - she made this card for sick kids as part of a charity effort. You really should check out her posting to learn more about her great work and exactly how you can make this car too.
Runner Up: Decorative Circle Medallion by Kittie Caracciolo from Kittie's Krafts
I just think this card is SO beautiful! I have been a big fan of these new circle medallions -- but I especially love how Kittie tucked a little Christmas village behind the frame. I feel like I'm looking through a window to a lovely winter scene. So pretty!
Craft of the Week: Teacher Clipboard by Michelle Wooderson from Mish Mash
Nichole Heady from Papertrey Ink is coming out with an awesome new set designed around teacher appreciation. Ideas like Michelle's, make me wake up at midnight so I can buy the stamps the moment they go on sale! I have two boys, both with GREAT teachers this year, and I'd love to be able to make something like this for Christmas. Michelle is so incredibly creative and she came up with this awesome clipboard. Run (don't walk) to her blog for a full tutorial on how to make this for yourself. - It doesn't even look hard!
Runner Up: Snowball Fight in a Can by Jen Tapler from Jen Tapler Designs
I think this is hilarious!!!! We do neighbor gifts for Christmas (I'm in Georgia -- not a lot of snow here...) and everyone has kids. I think this would go over so incredibly well! So funny. Jen, you're brilliant.
Runner Up: Holiday House by Melissa from Mme. Designs
This gorgeous ornament is all made from paper -- the trees are a Martha Stewart punch. I can only imagine how much time it takes to put something like this together! WOW. Totally worth it - so beautiful! Click on over to Melissa's blog for more details.
