Created this WILD WEST Pocket Tag using a Sizzix Original die, Pocket. Used Western scrapbook paper centering the boot image to cut pocket image. The Pocket die has a faux stitching as part of the die. Used Kraft cardstock as base of tag cut with scissors. Red tape used to seal up around the edges of the Pocket except for top where a note can be placed inside of the pocket. Added eyelets to Pocket Tag using Crop-A-Dile. Had bought the Crop-A-Dile this yr but only used it to punch holes. Well, now I can say I used it to put the eyelets in place. Stamped a Tim Holtz WILD WEST stamp. Distressed the edges with TH Paper Distresser and TH Distress Ink.
Closeup of the Pocket with faux stitching:
adhesive: red tape
eyelets: Recollections 2 copper
ink: Memento Rich Cocoa
paper: Kraft cardstock - base, K&Co Old West scrapbook paper - layer
Sizzix: Originals die Pocket
Tom Holtz: Distress Ink walnut stain, Paper Distresser, stamp - Wild West
tool: Crop-A-Dile - to set the eyelets in place

hey Friend Winter Mini Card
Created this Clean & Simple (CAS) hey Friend Winter Mini Card using a new to me Cuttlebug embossing border folder, Winter Borders. Embossed the left hand side of the Kraft cardstock card base (the photograph makes the Kraft cardstock look orange) with only part of the embossing border folder that is the tree and not the Winter house scene below the tree. Used Basic Grey bird stamp & sentiment "hey, Friend!" stamped on light blue cardstock (photograph makes the light blue look gray but I like that for a Wintery feel). Used Stardust chalk for snow look on embossed tree & birds. Chalk-Ah-Lot Cafe challenge this week is Something New w/ Chalk and last wk was Snow and my new was that this card was for a new friend (new friend met at Michaels that I'm going to show how to make some cards like I've been making) and since I was using the Winter Borders embossing folder the snow look seemed appropriate.
chalk: Stamp N Plus Stardust chalk - for snow look
embossing: Cuttlebug Winter Borders embossing folder
ink: Memento Tuxedo Black
paper: Kraft cardstock - base, light blue cardstock - layer
stamp: Basic Grey - sentiment "hey, Friend!"

Happy New Year Sudz Tag
Created this masculine whimsy Happy New Year tag using StitchyBear digi, Sudz. I'm not a beer drinker anymore. When growing up my Father use to allow us to have beer at home and now I do not like beer. Guess he used a reverse psychology of sorts. The only beer I like now is Root Beer and it best be A&W or homemade.
Colored digi using computer photoshop program, Photo Impact Pro 8.5. Printed colored digi on white cardstock. Cut digi out using Spellbinder. Added enamel accents white to the beer in the mug on digi. Base of tag is Kraft cardstock. Layers of tag are white cardstock. Stamped Basic Grey New Years sentiment on white cardstock layer. Used an item normally not used for crafting which is a scrap piece of gray rubber shelf liner as ribbon for tag. Thought the dots on the gray rubber shelf liner resembled the dots above & below the sentiment.

Deer Ornament/Tag
Created this Deer Ornament that can also be used as a Tag.
Used Cricut Winter Frolic for base. Cut 2 pieces one of plain white cardstock & one of white glitter cardstock. Attached the white glitter cardstock to plain white cardstock for more sturdiness. White glitter cardstock used for snow look.
Cut the Deer from new die I found at Michaels clearanced priced $2 ( Yeah!) Basic Grey/Sizzix Deer die. Did not know that Basic Grey (BG) collaborated with Sizzix before. All BG I ever had was BG stamps that I got several of online.
Wonderful thing about the Tim Holtz Vagabond is that I can cut pieces such as paper, felt, foam stacked on top of one another with die face up. Inside of ear & spots are pink foam from my Valentine foam stash that has adhesive on the back of it so I put the foam on top of the brown cardstock when cutting. The nose is red felt so I stacked a scrap of red felt on top of the brown cardstock. The die has the eye off to the side on the die. I stacked brown felt for eye brows, white felt for next layer of eye & black felt for eyeball. The antler is brown felt which is off to the side on the die.
Taped some scrap pieces of the cardstock behind the ear area & spots area. Peeled the adhesive off the back of the pink foam and put in place. Added a scrap piece of red ribbon.
Found a mini gold jingle bell that had broken off an ornament so I recycled it on the deer attaching it with a glue dot.
Stamped sentiment and cut sentiment tag with a Spellbinder.
Used Scotch Foam Mounting Tape to attach sentiment tag & Deer to the white glitter cardstock.
Added some gold ribbon to hang the ornament from the tree with and gold ribbon bow.

Snowglobe Shaped Thank You Card
Created this Snowglobe Shaped Card using:
Doodlecharms Cricut cartridge & Gypsy to weld the snowglobe into a shaped card and hide cuts,
StitchyBear digi, Snowman Trio,
Craft Lounge Tweet Winter Wishes stamps
and
glitter.
Printed digi on white cardstock. Colored the digi with markers & pencil colors. Cut digi out with scissors. Used foam adhesive to pop up digi on snowglobe.
Decided to not add ribbon because a snowglobe does not have a ribbon on it & so it would be flat for mailing.

adhesive: foam (hoarded supplies)
Cricut: Doodlecharms 4.16" x 8.65" welded, 4.5" layer
