The Latte Lounge Christmas Celebration

It's time for the Christmas Celebration at The Latte Lounge! There are going to be challenges, chats, and lots of fun.

I'm sponsoring the Christmas Candy Challenge. Your challenge is to make a project that is inspired by Christmas candy. There's a lot of room for interpretation in this challenge. Make sure you read to the end so you can see the prize - it's yummy!

My first project is an Advent calendar for Peanut. I followed a tutorial from Splitcoast Stampers. I made the numbers and the sentiment using my Traditional Christmas paper pack. The other papers are from My Mind's Eye. Each tin contains a piece of chocolate - Christmas candy!

If you'd like to make this yourself, I'd be happy to share my numbers and title with you. Just send me an email at jljdesigns at cox dot net.

I'd like to enter the calendar in the following challenges:

1. Lothian Crafts #9 - for someone special - Peanut is very special to me!

2. Stamp with Fun #87 - advent

3. Really Reasonable Ribbon #13 - anything but a card - winter - it's hard to see but there's a beautiful red ribbon with snowflakes holding up the calendar.

My second project is more literal. I used Cherrie with a Candy Cane from Tickled Pink Stamps. I won the Cherrie Christmas digi release in a blog hop - yummy! I made a little folder to hold a paper pad that I got at Michael's. The papers are My Mind's Eye and the stickers are Jolee.

I'd like to enter this project in the following challenges:

1. P3 - to do list or organizer

2. Top Tip #12 - anything goes

Finally, Peanut has a card. She's used a digi from The Greeting Farm - two mice with a candy cane. I think all the glitter and jewels she's used remind me of yummy candy too.
So, you've made it to the end and here's the prize. Stickers, ribbons, and papers in the Christmas candy theme. The challenge is open until December 10th.

We hope to see you at the Christmas Celebration at The Latte Lounge!

Blog Candy Winner and IDIC Forum Freebie Challenge - Toucan Scraps

Please scroll down for two digital paper pack candies and the Some Odd Girl blog hop.

Before I show you my project, I have my blog candy winner to announce. The winner is ...

and this is Larisa! Please contact me with your address at jljdesigns at cox dot net by Friday. If I don't hear from you, I will redraw the blog candy.

This week the I Did It Creations Forum Freebie Challenge is sponsored by Toucan Scraps. The freebie is Thank You Puppy. I used Toucan Scraps' Holly and Ivy Digi Papers to make Diaper Fold Pouches. I folded down the top triangle into the pouch to make little "flower pots." The Thank You message fits perfectly in the green flower pot.

I colored the Thank You using Copics and added Stickles to the yellow and orange letters. The plaid background paper is from DCWV and the flowers are from Michaels.

I'd like to enter this project in the following challenges:

1. Paper Cutz #69 - anything goes

2. Wags 'n Whiskers #41 - Wrap it up

Happy Crafting!

The Greeting Farm Blog Hop and Digi Blog Candy

Scroll down for the Some Odd Girl Blog Hop.

Welcome to JLJ Designs stop on The Greeting Farm Hoppin' Into the Holidays. I hope you'll read to the end as I have a little digi blog candy on offer! If you get lost, head to The Greeting Farm for directions.

This is my card for the "Santa, Baby" Challenge. I used Cupcake Anya to make a little tent to leave with Peanut's treats for Santa. I colored the image using Copics and added red glitter to her headband and belt. I used digi papers from my Traditional Christmas paper pack. The stickers are from Creative Memories and have been in my stash for a long time.

I'd like to enter this table tent in the following challenges:

1. Cute Card Thursday #140 - Blast from the Past - I used challenge #116 - anything but square

2. Winter Wonderland - shape up - I don't know if this counts, but with the two shapes together, it's not square : )

3. Polkadoodles #47 - Twas the Night Before Christmas - "In hopes that St. Nicholas soon would be there."

This is my card for "Let It Snow." I thought Ivy Xmas Tree was perfect for this challenge since the snow is built in! I used digi papers from my Traditional Christmas paper pack and silver doilies from Wilton. I added Jolee snowflake stickers and a Papercraft Inspirations freebie sticker for the greeting.

I'd like to enter this card in the following challenges:

1. Midnight Madness Sketch Challenge #82 - sketch

2. Delicious Doodles #2 - Celebrations

3. ABC Challenge - I for Ice and Snow

4. Simon Says Challenge - Let it Snow

Finally, I have my card for "Holiday Treats." I used Candy Cane Snack. Again, I used digi papers from my Traditional Christmas paper pack. I added stickers from Jolee - it was a Christmas candy set.

I'd like to enter this card in the following challenges:

1. Friday Sketchers #130 - sketch

2. Sew Many Challenges #34 - red and green

3. Ellephantastic #20 - red and green
