Merry Christmas!

Merry Christmas Friends and Followers!
Allow me to share one big reason I've been missing.... our new puppy! This little sweetie pup is a Christmas present for my daughter. She is a long hair chihuahua. Just a day and a half after we picked her up she became very sick and it was several days and long nights of nuring her back to health. I am happy to report that Rosalee is healthy and playful again!

I have a couple projects I've worked over the past few weeks. Below is an art piece that began as a stretched canvas. I created this for a santa gift exchange at my LSS. I used Primary Elements with solution #2 for all the painted parts- canvas, tissue, grungeboard and silk flowers.

Tilted view... there is a double layer of ribbon covering the sides.

This card is for my hubby... we celebrated our 10th anniversary right before Christmas as well. The puppy was very sick during our special weekend so we stayed home to care for her but friends invited our human daughters for sleep overs so at least we had some snuggle time;)

I will be working on a bunch of projects this next week... some I can share and others you'll have to wait to see. But in the meantime enjoy your families and stay toasty warm!

More Glazed Coaster Tiles

Hello Friends
I've been a busy, busy bee this past week! My daughters were in a Christmas play at our church, our home school group had its Christmas party, another party with our bowling league... and on! I've been making more glazed coaster tiles for Christmas presents in between all these activities.
These are for my mom. I used Wild Blueberry and French Lilac Primary Elements over silver Pearl Ex. Instructions are in my last post.
A close up so you can see the silver showing through the natural cracks in the tile. The finished tile was edged with a blue velvet ribbon.

These are for my youngest sister and her new husband. I used two greens- Olive Vine and Lemongrass Primary Elements... very little of the gold pearl ex base shows through on these.
I also made a dozen for neighbors and friends... but forgot to get a pic of those before they were given!
