Yesterday Betty stopped by and we did not really do anything major. She made a few cards and I used some of her punches that I asked her to bring over. Not really much getting done but that's fine. It's nice to just sit and chat every now and then. It's not like we have to do stuff all the time, although it's fun.
I wanted to show you a couple more of the CD holders that I made. These are really fun to make. Last night I had to go to the store and I found a huge pack of hot chocolate and I'm going to be filling these with that and some other "snowman soup" kind of goodies. You don't have to use that, you can use anything ~ really the possibilities are almost endless.
The base is Chocolate Chip that I layered with Bashful Blue, Tangerine Tango and some Frosty Day DP from SU last year. I stamped the sentiment from The Angel Company in Pumpkin Pie ink and punched it out with my SU wide oval punch and layered it on to a piece of Bashful Blue that I punched out with my Super Scallop Oval punch. I took my paper piercer and my white gel pen and did up the scallops a bit. I adhered that and added the felt flower and foam snowflake with a crystal brad in the top corner and I was complete.
For this holder I used a green base and layered it with some Real Red, Dark Green and Dashing DP card stocks. I stamped the sentiment from The Angel Company in Real Red ink and punched it out with my SU wide oval punch and layered it on to a piece of Dark Green cs that I punched out with my Super Scalloped Oval punch. I took the white gel pen and paper piercer to the Dark Green layer to give it a little more pop before adhering it to the box. I added a red felt flower to the lower left corner and a green felt flower and foam snowflake to the upper right corner and I was complete.
Over the next week or so I may or may not be here. I have some family medical issues to deal with so I might be a little sporadic. I hope that you all understand. I hope that you all try this CD box out ~ they are really fun and they would be a fun gift to give a co-worker or friend.
Have a super great day!!

Hi Joani, your CD holders are soooo cute. I hope your 'issues' don't stress you out too much.
Big hugs~
