A Study in Green and More Projects for the Church Craft Sale

Good morning everyone!!! I hope all is well with you on this wonderful Friday morning!!! Our church craft sale is Saturday so today we will set everything up. I have been using all my spare time to finish up my cards and other goodies so I haven't cleaned my house or cooked anothing...I'm getting kinda used to carry out...LOL!!! I am going to share more of the cards and projects I made but first I wanted to show you the card I made yesterday for Julia's Ways to Use it Challenge on Splitcoast. We were to use mostly green on our card...... I used six different colors of green ink to create the background and stamp the trees. The colors were sponged on the vanilla cardstock, the script stamp was stamped using water misted on the stamp, and then Perfect Pearls and water was spritzed over the entire area and dried with a heat tool. The trees were then stamped, sewing and distressing were done around the edges, and the sentiment, Prima poinsettias, lace, and ribbon finish it off. All the stamps are from Rubbernecker Stamps.
Recipe:
Stamps: Rubbernecker Pine Trees, Script Background, Sentiment
Paper: Vanilla, Old Olive, Hunter Green
Ink: Ranger Crushed Olive, Pine Needles, Peeled Paint. Stampin Up! True Thyme, Old Olive, and River Rock
Accessories: Prima Poinsettias and leaf, Nestabilities, Ribbon, Sewing Machine, Lace

The script and dove images from Gina K's Blessed is the Season were stamped with Versamark and embossed with white ep. The snowflake and the sentiment were stamped with Night of Navy onto the Bashful Blue cardstock. The snowflake was also stamped on the inside and on the envie, too. The silver ribbon finishes it off.

My DH loves Crysal Light so we have lots of these containers. I started collecting them a few months ago because I just knew they could be used for something!!! I'm glad I did because they were decorated, filled with candy, and I thought they were to be sold at the craft sale. However, most of them were sold at the church yesterday!!! I guess I better make a lot more for next year...LOL!!!

I used a variety of Christmas papers, ribbons, lace, gold pearls, stamps, and stickers to make these and more that I didn't photograph. The paper was secured on the container with score tape and a tag was attached to the top. This was such a fun project...I might have to start making more of these next week for the 2011 craft sale!!!

Thanks for stopping by....I'll show you more things I made for the craft sale tomorrow......hope you have a great weekend!!!!
