Happy Hump Day, Friends!!!
Here’s our last sketch for the year – we’re taking a bloggy break for a couple weeks, so our team can enjoy their holidays with one less commitment on their plates! I’d also like to say a great big thank you to the girls from the DT this term – you were all so wonderful to work with, and I thank you so very much for that! Great job, girls!!
Cute, right?! I was totally inspired by the tree, and had this old Crate Paper pad from last Christmas sitting around.. so out came the scissors & I fussy cut the tree! Here’s what I came up with:
Some of the other girls had a chance over the weekend to play along, too, so here’s what they’ve got to share:

Good Morning,
This is my last post for 2011 at PaperWorks Co. I want to thank Peggy for giving me the opportunity to work on her FAB team. I also want to give a shout out to Stephanie, you ROCKED the Blog Coordinator position. This was such a fun team to work on, and I want to thank all the DT gals for welcoming me, and for the support.
This last card was created using my absolute favorite PWCO PaperCard Kit in 2011. The July kit was full of bright papers, and the kit had me reaching for the Aqua Amigos Stamp set over and over. Carlos the Crab is just darling, and he is fun to pop up too. He totally makes me smile, and that is always a good thing. So as we head into the winter months, I hope this sunny warm card helps dull the chill in the air.
Wishing all you a Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays, and may the New Year bring peace, happiness and joy.
Hugs,
Tanya

This is my last post for this year at Paperworks Co and I’d like to thank Peggy and all the girls for a wonderful DT term. It’s been a blast!
This is my last project on Anything But A Card Sunday. I found this really cute sucker when I was out shopping, and thought it would make a great birthday treat. Here it is:
Isn’t it adorable? !!!!! I used the monkey stamp from the Jungle Jesters set. He’s called Mikey the Monkey. I used E31 and E33 to color him up. I used paper from my stash to create the holder and die cut out 7, which i inked with TH distress ink and added stickles for bling.
Happy Christmas everyone and enjoy the holiday season.

Hey-eeeeeeey-ya! (Shake it, shake it… shake it like a polaroid picture!) {Anyone remember that Outkast song? It just totally popped in my head, and you can thank me later when you find yourself singing it at some point today!}
ANNNNYWAY – it’s our last Recipe posting for the month! Remember, we’re taking a ‘blog break’ as of Wednesday, December 14 – that way, we all can have one less commitment to tend to over the holidays!
Here’s the recipe:
LET IT SNOW!~

Good Morning,
For the next couple of weeks I will be showcasing some of the previous month’s PWCO PaperCard Kits. Hence the title “A Blast From The Past”.
Needing some masculine paper for my husbands anniversary card (we celebrated 9 years on November 30th), I found myself perusing through the August 2011 PaperCard kit. These papers are delicious, and the matching embellishments that came with it just screamed masculine to me.
Lucas the Lion from the Safari Friends stamp set was just perfect, and inside the card I used the Safari Friends ” I am wild about you” sentiment stamp. And yes, my husband loved the card.
Happy Monday,
Hugs,
Tanya

Hi there, it’s Janet today. I’m creating for the Anything But A Card Sunday this month, so let’s get started, shall we?!
Have you seen those cute little gift boxes that people are making? I really like them but they are so small as you use a 6×6 piece of light patterned paper. I decided to make it bigger, so I used a full sheet of light patterned paper…light weight paper is the best.
Here it is:
I decided to use the Rocky the Raccoon stamp which is available here. Isn’t he cute? I colored him with copic makers (C1,3,5) and added some pearls to the scalloped circle Spellbinder die cut.
I wanted to make a treat box that would hold some Hershey kisses, and this one is big enough to hold at least 6. It would make a great party favor or a small treat for someone special.
If you’d like to try one of these treat boxes, here’s the link to the instructions and pattern.
Happy Sunday! It’s the weekend!
Janet
