Freewheeling Friday 12-26-08

I really wanted to try the Christmas Chatter wheel.  Here’s the card I came up with.  ho-ho-ho

After I wheeled the back ground I made sure the wheel was all inked then I colored just the words ho ho ho with the chocolate chip maker.  Then I rolled it on the vanilla card-stock and punched it out with the large oval punch.  I used the tag punch behind it.   I used the blender pen and touched it to the markers to color the Santa.  I used the white water color wonder crayon for his beard and fur.  I think it turned out cute.  I like how I could highlight just one sentence from the roller to use as my saying on my card.

I was going through some of my Holiday Decorations and discovered these two great frames I made last year.   I thought I would share them with you today since the background was so simple to make.  I just used the Versa Mark with our Bold Snowflakes Jumbo Wheel.  f-noel-frame

I know it’s really hard to see but it looks great in person.  I’ve added a close up shot so hopfully you will be able to see the effect.  The are really fun to put out for the holidays.  f-holiday-frame-close

I really like the big one because I can change out the picture when I want to.f-holiday-frame

Freewheeling Friday Holiday Fun Pages

I usually tend to do cards when I am trying to come up with an idea so this time I decided to challenge myself and come up with a scrapbook page to share.  I have to say that I think it turned out really cute and I’m excited to share it with you.  Today’s theme is Freewheeling Friday so I just need to use a wheel.  I had fun making the Rudolph with the punches and the Big Shot.  I hope you like the pages.  I even added pictures.fwf-holiday-fun-pg-1fwf-holiday-fun-pg-2

Weekly Challenge

One of my favorite things about Patty’s blog is that she has something new almost everyday.  So I decided I wanted to challenge myself to post a new idea for you each day.  I wanted to make it a little fun so I’ve come up with some fun names for each day and hopefully a fun category.  I’m not promising that I will be great at this, but I’m going to give it a try.  I will be starting on Monday here are the fun categories and what you can expect.

Marvelous Monday- I will be starting with the Many Marvelous Markers.  I have a document with lots of ways to use our great markers so I will be giving you tips and show you some samples.

Technique Tuesday- Hopefully I will be showing you a new fun technique and sometimes some old ones that we tend to forget.

Wacky Wednesday- This will be for anything that is different and fun.

Thrifty Thursday- Stampin’ ideas for those on a  budget. 

Freewheeling Friday-  I often forget to use our great wheels when creating projects so my challenge will be to get them out and see what fun I can have.

Swapping Saturday-  Saturday’s are usually pretty busy so I will be posting some of my favorite swaps.

Stampin’ Sunday-  I usually get a few minutes alone in my Stamp room on Sunday so I hope that I will be able to show you something new each week that I have created.

Hopefullly you will like these and we will have a little fun with it.  Please feel free to leave your comments so I know what to do more of in the future.  Be watching for them starting Monday and check back everyday to see what is new.
