Candy Corn Tree Doorhanger



I had to try to think of something else besides a card to make with this tree from Stamps by Judith because it's a fairly large image. I don't usually like to make large cards, so I searched and searched, blogs, template sites, SCS & everything trying to figure out what to do besides a card. Of course, I was browsing the SCS gallery when I happened upon a couple of these doorhangers! Perfect! I didn't have a template though, so I just winged it. I made it 4" x 11" (or half a piece of cardstock), covered it in decorative paper then measured to the center and cut a circle with my Nestabilities. It would work with just a circle, but it tended to hang to one side instead of dead center. So, I measured to the center again, and using a small circle punch, cut about half a circle above the larger circle. This way the shaft of the door knob will hold it place.
It looks so much nicer IRL, I hate that I just can't capture it in my pictures! A photographer I am NOT! Anyway, you should try this easy project. One for each door in your house, for each holiday, occasion, etc. etc....LOL.

Cupcake Birthday Tree


Love this sweet little (actually not so little, it's a 5" x 7" card) cupcake tree! I've been wanting these stamps from Stamps by Judith for a while, because they only come mounted and I wanted so many it was pretty pricey! But, I couldn't resisit anymore and ordered up the Tree for all Seasons and a bunch of tiny 'Stick and Stubby' stampers. I didn't use many of them on this card though, most of the little cupcakes, balloons and flowers are from Pink Cat Studio's Limitless Limbs set. I love them all! You could do any occasion with the variety of tiny images to decorate the trees.
I die cut some felt flowers using a Bosskutz die and glued it to the center of the JustRite circle. Also applied pink and blue Stickles to the balloons, but it doesn't show up well on the monitor. Lots of sparkle IRL!
Thanks for stopping by!

When I saw this set from Pink Cat Studios I had to have it! Trees of all kinds are one of my favorite stamps to work with, and I have quite a collection of quirky, stylized trees. Plus, you can decorate it for any holiday with all the different kinds of teeny tiny images that come with the set. Just my thing, I love versatile sets!
Keep checking my blog, I have a lot of cards to post, and some exciting news!
