Window Clings


  This is the 4th Craft we will make at my Annual Christmas Craft Party...they are snowflake window clings. We used scribbles paint and some snow flake  patterns and made a pile of snow flakes that will stick to your windows...they are glittery and very pretty and ohso easy to make. I am sure everyone will have tons of fun making these. And thier kids will have fun too when they go home..I am sure this will be one that gets done with thier kids.

Covered Pens.


   Here is the 3rd craft  for my Annual Christmas Craft Party. I made these with my meet-up groupd called Texas Art Glass from Sculpey clay. . I just loved them and knew I wanted to make more and I knew it would be easy enough for my friends to make also..so here are mine. I decided I wanted to make  breast cancer ones...so this lovely shade of pink worked well.



I burnt my first attempt. BAD!!!. I was sad becasue I really liked this one alot. Lesson learnt to watch them cook closely...lol.  check back for the cool ones my freinds all made....

CTMH Christmas Cards

  
 





   I went to a fun class with my local group called Creative Outlet and we made the cutest Christmas cards with a stamp set from Close to MY Heart. I didn't get to ask what this set is called, but I tell you I sure do love it and will be purchasing it in the future. I am not a very good stamper so I keep taking these small classes to pick up some technique and tips. I love how these cards turned out and will be using them for some speicial girl friends this year. I was working on these on crop night at Anthologies . If you live by the Fort Worth area this is a store to check out. A very fun place to crop and shop..

Snowman Hanging



    I seen these in the December 2009 Craft 'n things magazine and thought this would be fun to make for my Christmas Craft Party...So this is the third item we will be working on. This one is a bit harder, but not real bad..I have confidence they will be able to do this craft also. I like it because I am not a painter, but this is simle painting so can be accomplished with good results. My Girl will love this for her blue themed Christmas....
