Guest Crafter
We wanted to post the incredible artwork submitted by our friend, Jim Ryan, our guest crafter. He decorated this beautiful bag for Christmas. Let me know what you think of this masterpiece:
End of Year Cards
I (Maria) had a pile of colored images that were sitting in my drawer, so I spend the last few days turning them into cards. I've still got about 6 more to go. All images are colored with prisma pencils and gamsol. Images are from Inky Antics, Happy Hoppers, Hero Arts and a few donated images which I'm not sure of the company.

2009 Flip Calendar Gift
This is a 2009 Calendar Gift I am giving to my "hair sculptress" as she likes to be called. I used Sizzix square die to cut chipboard and patterned paper by Provo Craft. I downloaded the calendar from Excel templates and resized and changed the font. I highlighted the holidays in Bold and also highlighted the "Full Moon" dates b/c she likes knowing when there will be a full moon. About 90% of stamps used are from Michael's Studio G $1.00 stamps. I used a book ring to secure the months and dressed with ribbon. I also made a matching Christmas Card for her.
Yankees Gift Tin
We were asked to make two Yankee-themed gift tins for Christmas gifts. Here's our result. Using brand new paint cans, the base is a silvery-grey paper and we traced the Yankee logo on Navy paper and cut out. Then we used Sizzix Shadow Box dies to cut out the names and the Cricut to cut the jersey #'s. All were decoupaged on. Beads for the handle and ribbon around top of tin and paint key.
