Joy to the World - Part 2: Unstampabelles

  Hello Peeps!

Another piece for Unstampabelles Challenge#107: JOY

the TWIST this month is MUSIC!

Who has their tree up already this year?

Hard to sing through the mask though......


I made a tag - extra long so it can be a bookmark too

I  recycled the JOY circle from a card to the tag


I die cut some music symbols and the drummer boy
Smooched around the edges of the tag with the red ink
Added some bling


My music clefs are in two different silvers


Here's my tree with it's mighty guardian!


He was very excited - as long as he doesn't climb it I will be OK
One bird ornament got a little chewed but its back on the tree again now!

(Please) Joy to the World....Unstampabelles have a new challenge for December

 Hello Peepers!

Hope this finds you all cheery and well. We are still COVID free in little old Tassie and we hope it remains that way for a good while. BUT, we will be ready for it!


The summer has started but no-one told the weather gods so the wind and rain and snow are still beating us up - hopefully summer will get back to us about mid-week!

I am knee deep again in Christmas cards and the first thing I did was recycle a few from last year that were just too pretty to throw away. Especially those hand made ones I was lucky enough to receive. Along the way I made a few tags as well, and this is what I will use for Unstampbelles latest challenge.

Challenge #107: JOY

with a TWIST of music!

I raided all my dies to find one that said Joy
I was sure there was one....could not find it....ordered the latest one from SU, then....
FOUND THE OLD ONE!

Oh well!


I cut out the word in gold card and trimmed the image I wanted to use
This photo was to prove it was a recycled card image


I had a strip of Whisper White already folded over that was just 
the right size too so another bit off the desk
Punched a hole in top left to thread some gold cord through and added some bits of bling - done!


It is quite a pretty image too


The sun does shine sometimes.....


Well, there you have it - a recycled Christmas card from last year
turned into a gift card for this year 

Simple. 
What are you going to make?
Remember, there is a cash prize and you have a month to enter!
