I'm impressed with all the wonderful embellies you ladies created in the busy month of December!

I'll be sending you your gift card soon! Thanks everyone for playing and check out January's challenge!
I spent an hour yesterday and M's trying to find Diamond Dust so I can add some "snow" to the paper flowers I love to make. I finally found it in the Christmas seasonal section and was amazed at all the buzz in that area. There is such an energy this time of year in craft stores as people create gifts and decorations for the Christmas season!
So to celebrate all the crafting and handmade creations of the season, I am challenging you to add a handmade embellishment or embellishments to you layout!
On my layout, I made the paper flowers and cut up some Prima paper to make an envelope.
I can't wait to see you put your craftiness to work!
Here are the rules:
1. Include one handmade embellishment which means it cannot come out of a package. Other than that, you're free to create!
2. This is open to paper and digi but digi must add a handmade elements as well.
3. Post your project here by the end of the year (hee hee, that's right, it's coming up!) and a random winner will win a $5 gift card to ACOT!
Also, I'm working on growing my blog, so if you become a follower, I'll add an extra entry in for you!

I really like how you clustered the elements on your page. I think I'll have to lift this idea I love this challenge.

Your flowers are AMAZING!! It must have taken me half a day to make one paper rose - I'm hoping that the next will take less time - lol! I also love the envelope and just might have to "lift" this for a Prima layout that's on my drawing board!
There are awesome tutorials for these flowers on YouTube and they actually are pretty easy to make! I'm sort of addicted to the paper flowers now.oceanbreezes423 wrote:Love this challenge, and your flowers are amazing!!! How did you do it???

Here is my layout for the handmade challenge. The lollipop flower was handmade, but not by me. My email/scrappin' gf made a bazillion for me and I just love using them. I did handmake the journal spot and deco squares though if those count as embellies !
Thanks for more inspiration to get these pages done!
