Hugs card

My first Christmas card for this year, hope to get more done so I can avoid the just before Christmas rush to create,
I made this card using a LSHD cutting file called "Warm Hugs" found  here.
other materials unclude some papers I found at Dollar Tree in these cute little 6x6 packs, glimmer mist, glitter, ribbon, and some puffy paint,
I'm entering this card into the "Gift for a Sibling or friend" challenge over at Cut It Up blog.
I made this card for my brother and his family, my little nephew loves little "Olaf"

Leaf layout

It's been ages since I've done a blog post, I've been pretty sick since June so it's been quite a challenge lately to get anything done.
These are layouts I've created for my DT posts over at Little Scraps of Heaven's design facebook page,
I entered this into the Canadian Scrapbooker Magazine "It's a Sketchy Challenge".
I used some random papers from my stash, I really have no idea where alot of these come from, I buy papers I like all the time from dollar stores so not sure if they even have a brand,
I used die cuts for cutting files from Little Scraps of Heaven Designs, http://www.littlescrapsofheavendesigns.com/
I use Recollections cardstock for my die-cut pieces cut on my Cricut Explore,
I embossed the leaves with a Fiskars texture plate for added effect, the title is a free font,
and the tag is from a Cricut Cartridge.
Journal stamp is from Autumn Leaves stampology line,
Bakers twine

 I'm also entering this in the Scrappy Mom's stamps Terrific Thursday challenge, "Fall colors" http://www.scrappymoms-stamps.blogspot.com/search/label/Terrific%20Tuesday%20Challenges
It feels good to be posting again, hopefully I'll get around to doing more...
Until next time
Hugs.
