Happy Christmas in August!

Any time before Christmas is always a good time to make Christmas cards so why not? And when you're inspired sometimes you have to go with it even if it doesn't make any sense (which is really the case with me!)
It's Ruth here today and thanks for humoring me.
I really did get inspired and had the best time designing my card!
I used:

and:

and here's how it turned out:

I love the 3D effect of the train with the card frame and the ticket is a great sentiment, don't you think?

Feel free to stop by my blog (Paper and Musings) where I'm sure to ramble on endlessly, or you could do some Christmas in August crafting, too! It's what all the cool kids are doing! ;-)

Thanks so much for visiting today! Click on any of the pictures if you'd like to go to that product in the shop.

Happy crafting!

You are Elephant-astic!

Hi, and Happy Thursday!

Gloria here from Gloria's Goofy Craft Spot. I hope everyone is doing well. 

For my project today I used PPPR "Shadow Box Card 1" cutting file along with PPPR "Safari Love" cutting file for the elephant. I cut the top layer of the box card two times, one in card stock and the other in printed paper because my printed paper was very thin. I used Tim Holtz "Vintage Photo" Distress Inkon the card box and Memento London Fog Ink on the elephant. The sentiment is from  Pink By Design "Jungle Fever" Stamp Set. I also added some yellow stickles to the bow.

 I did a little pocket page in the inside.

 I glued the top layer of the elephant to the top of the box card first.

Then turned it around and glued the base of the elephant to the back of the card box.

What I used:

PPPR "Shadow Box Card 1" cutting file   

PPPR "Safari Love" cutting file

Pink By Design "Jungle Fever" Stamp Set

Memento London Fog Ink

Tim Holtz "Vintage Photo" Distress Ink

Ranger Archival Ink

Yellow Stickles
