My guilty pleasure lo
I have lots of these guilty pleasures- like dancing all my spare time, smoking (bad and I know it), drinking a lot of coffee, shoping craft products ( as all of us, don't we?)- but the most significant is to spend every single extra $$ I have for my overseas trips. I just need to go anywhere 3-4 time a year ...
So I did this no photo lo about this guilt of mine with this ABC list of places I visited and the question about the next one.
China it is - not on this lo yet- very fast decision to go there for this last minute winter price ( it's very cold there- but for this price I can stand it for sure)
So this lo was made for some challenges too:
1. AAM- MY GUILTY PLEASURE
4. No photo lo- for LOTUS PAPERIE
5. Distressing- for Frosted designs
6. Buttons- for Design dollies- I added 11 smallest buttons on the balck frill

Snow globe winter shaped card
I was chosen next GD onLexi's creations for this card- thanks
I did this card with the help of digi image from Whimsical doodles I got as win on ETSY challenge.
First I tried to do the ball from acetate- but my fingerprints were all over it and I hated the result, so I went for texured AC white cardstock, embossed it, made some silver glitter edge and here it is.
As a base I used some Cosmo paper with red ribbon, white lace, huge flower I made of some PRIMA flowers with big crystal, some pearls around and lots of snowflakes and brads.
NEW VINTAGE CARD
This card was published in April issue of SNR
I need some cards for this week and with no snowmen and snowflakes- jusr plain birthday ones.
So I did this one using some of Creatalicious goodies I won in their challenge blog and got a few days ago and I love this vintage look .
This is no patterned paper card and I just used AC cardstock, made 2 kinds of dry embossing, cut 3 kinds of die cuts and did some stamping and inking.
Some challenges :
Dry embossing for Humble pie

Happy Hanukkah and happy holidays for all of us!!
It is Hanukkah tomorrow- so one lo for it too!!
Tomorrow we celebrate Hanukkah- actually it's 8 days of holidays with no non working days at all (lol)- but for teachers and schoolers.
For these who are not familiar with jewish holidays - this one is all about light!!
I am not going to introduce you to the historic reasons of this holiday, but to the symbols only and the main 2 are candles and ... donuts!!
O' yeep- we have 8 days and every day we light candles- 1 for the first day. 2- for second and so on. And we eat!! Mostly huge fatty donuts with lots of red jelly in and on..
So this lo was done to celebrate our after Hanukkah diets- as each donut is about 800 callories and we eat it every day for 8 days and some days before and sometime more than one a day and we cry after...
p.s. I hate donuts and I am very skinny person- so this is not a personal weap, but " community service"..
This very simple lo was made for some online crop and I only had an hour or so to finish it- so it's all about journaling after all..
And as it is a holiday season- this one is great for some challenges too:
Not cookies- but still lind of- using AC 2 packs of thickers and AC pen- for ACFlourishes- for Belli
Holidays- for AAMHolidays- for Frosted designsFavorite holidays for What's your favorite things

This lo was one of TOP 3 at La-la- land buttons challenge- thanks!!
This no photo lo was made for SIC December challenge (my challenge actually) and it need to be Kraft paper, no photo and 3 non scrappy items on it.
My non scrappy items are : the key- the wood on the tree and rectangular paint chips I just got from ACE store. The acid free is not important here as this has no photos on it.
I used some FANCY PANTS die cuts, lots of buttons, some white pen doodling and 1 AC foam number.
I used some FANCY PANTS die cuts, lots of buttons, some white pen doodling and 1 AC foam number.
It is about my 7 houses I lived in my adult life and never took a photo of.
So this is a great challenge- not too hard to do even if you are only a cardmaker as there is no photo on this. Come and play with us on SIC0 great RAK too -
I know as I got some before I was on their DT.
And for other challenges now:

All pp are Graphic 45 I got as a Rak and as it is vintage- the card is pure vintage too. I added some blings and stamped sentiment- but I used some distress ink and it was very pale so I just used some AC pen over it.
This one is great for lots of these Christmas challenges that are on the web now:
Colors- for Dare4 u
Colors and bling- for ROSIE'S AND DEE'S

This lo was made for IF THE SHOE FITS color challenge of black- red and orange colors. This great photo is a real sea star my DH met in his Red sea diving vacation. I used Dcwv black scalloped texured cardstock,some Creative imaginations lace paper, some fibers, AC Thikers alphas and Heidi Swapp invisible chipboard inked with some distress Ranger inks.
This was my first time to try this " lots of free yarn " technique- you just
leave it free and add some glue dots wherever you want it to stay.
Great use of all old yarns from ages ago.
As for other challenges- not so much:
Scallops- for Frosted designs
Black and bright- for Ildi co
No ppapae- for Penny

I WAS PUBLISHED- FIRST TIME OUT OF ISRAEL
This is my first publication out of ISRAEL - I was published in December issue of SCRAPBOOKING. COM ( actually this was the first work I ever submitted and they liked it! )
I was published in Israeli print craft magazine called " Hobbyton" several times - mostly with tutorials , but now it's international and I am just thrilled and so proud !! (And this Israeli magazine is out of market now- so I need to go international )
I have 6 more works to be published in January in this e- zine and in another one too and a big tutorial and even an interview - but this one is my first one and that's the reason it is special for me.
So just click on it and than you can enjoy the whole E- zine and if you make a subscription- you'll get it every month to your mail.
