Came across these projects recently while blog-surfing. They are soooo cool! So I thought this would make a great thread. Lots of us like to look at other people's blogs, so when you find a really cool project that you want to "enable" us with, post the links here! I'll start:

Snowman Kisses

Santa Card

Paint Chip Christmas Tree Card

Double Pocket Card
http://margiesmoments.blogspot.com/2007/11/double-pocket-card-4.html
(you have to click on several different posts in the side menu for all of the instructions)

I plan to try all of these!


Ok, so who's next?

Vicki - these are soooo cool. I especially thought that the paint chip tree was pretty clever. Who would've thought. TFS. I'll have to surf to find something cool to add here.

I just put a cute project on one of my blogs. I know we see things made with Hershey's Nuggets covered with stamped address labels all over the net, but here is my version:

The paper for this wreath (http://acolourfulworld.blogspot.com/2007/11/decking-halls.html)reminded me of ribbon candy.

OH it DOES look like that hard ribbon Christmas candy. Also looks like it took a long time to make! TFS, I like it!

I love those Snowman Kisses. I saw them on the CTMH Consultant Board. It is adorable. They would be great stocking stuffers.

Just found this. It's a "photo corner Christmas tree" card. Looks pretty quick and easy - I can't wait to try this!
http://craftdoc.blogs.splitcoaststampers.com/2007/11/08/todays-tip-photo-corner-tree/
Looks like she used a punch to make her photo corners. But I just cut a square, like 1" x 1" or whatever. Cut it in half diagonally to make 2 triangles. Put your two triangles back to back and snip off the tips. Now you can fit them together to make a photo corner. Look at my card here to see what I mean:

I wanted to share this "ribbon blossom" tutorial. I think it is sooooo cute, BUT I tried making one today and um.....let's just say I couldn't get it to work. :(
