The Santa block was given to PJ's teacher for a Christmas gift. She loved it! You may not be able to see the detail of his face, but I inked and emphasized all of his features. The Candy Cane block was designed in DS and layered. The ribbon was half of Minnie Mouses' bow and half of the award ribbon off My Community. (I think?) The ribbon was also alchohol inked for color. I loved the way that both of these came out...

This was a "custom" block that I made for my brother at the request of my sister-in-law. He is a telescope/stargazer cult member and this is the name of a telescope manufacturer. This was done with tissue paper adhered to the front and back of the block, with vinyl cut and layered over the top. The telescope was designed by me using DS. The edges are wrapped with black satin ribbon. He wanted this as a night light and didn't want it too bright. Stargazers are kind of funny about lights from what I understand. Anyway, I hear he liked it!

Glass Blocks

Ok, so I'm a little behind in posting my Christmas projects. I made (and sold) quite a few blocks this year, in addition to helping my friend and neighbor Monique make some for gifts. I am going to post a few, some made by me-some made by "us".....

This block is a different shape, not the ordinary square. Peace was cut using Design Studio, as were the holly/berry combinations. The holly was cut out of white and alchohol inked to make it the color I wanted. (I am limited to the colors of vinyl and I have found that the alchohol inks will allow your to make anything whatever you want!)

Ok, so I haven't been around for a while. Well, almost a year, lol...I'm gonna try to do better.....really.
