4x4 pages for a swap

I am working on 4x4 pages for a swap I joined...these are the pages I have started...I used scrapbook papers, vellum, stamps, ribbons, flowers and acrylic embellishments on this page...

This was a fun one to make...I used a variety of elements here...I know we all do "sassy" moments...
This is my favorite page, but then, Fall is my favorite time of year...I like the way the embellishments on this page came together...


Snow pages are really fun for me to do...cause its as close to snow, as I like to be...I did enough snow as a child to last me a lifetime...so no snow is cool for me...anyway...this page uses lace and ribbon, as well as a mini envelope turned pocket to hide a little extra that goes with this page...I stamped The Stamping Studio snowman and then used marker watercoloring technique to color him in, then coated with Ranger Glossy Accents...the little embellishments are also glued on with that...



Inside the pocket is a little snowflake ornament...I hope my swap partner likes this one...cause its been real tempting to keep it...LOL...




I like to work with Christmas colors and papers...I combined the coordinating papers and stamped the verse directly on the background, then coated with glossy accents...I added little pearl ornaments to the tree...I used a little cardinal sticker to accent the envy pocket with special gift inside...





Its an ornament...I die cut the sizzix ornament, ran it thru my dots cuttlebug folder and sanded off the color of the dots...i colored the top of the ornament with a gold metallic marker...and added gold thread...I think I know who will get this one...but still got to get all the pages finished before I decide who gets which one...LOL..or which ones I keep and make others to send...nah, just kidding...
