What's New at Cre8ive Cutz

Have you been to the Make the Cut! forum lately? The Nutcrackers in November challenge is going on right now!  There's lots of great challenges to participate in, and prizes from great sponsors. (I should know, I'm one of them!! LOL) The challenge runs until the end of November, so there's still lots of time to check it out and create some projects.

My sister came over on Sunday and we had a great afternoon crafting together. I got a good start on my Christmas cards, so I'll post pics over the next few days.

I just had to share this birthday card my husband made for me! It was my birthday a few days ago, so he decided that since I'm always making cards for other people, he should make one for me. But he didn't use my craft supplies to make it, he went into the garage and this was the result. This is how a man makes a card!This is the outside of the card:And the inside. The little buckle on the right side panel held a wooden charm for my Pandora bracelet, to remind me of the card. :-)Here's a close-up...
