Happy New Year with Beth

Good Monday Morning!  Happy New Year!  Beth from Beth's Beauties here with you to share this fun interactive card.
 I created this card using the SnapDragon Snippets' New Year Ball Drop card file.  2018 is part of the updated years file.  This file is also included in the JGW New Year's Celebration set.  The papers I used are from DCWV's All Dressed Up and Glitzy Glitter stacks as well as solid colored Recollections cardstock.  I love that the ball can move up and down on the strip of paper!
 Embellishments include Bubblegum Taffy Trendy Twine, rhinestones, and Wink Of Stella.  Adhesives used include ATG and Lineco Adhesive in a precision tip bottle.  For more details, stop by my blog!
I hope you have a wonderfully crafty day!

New Years Eve Decorations

Hello again and Happy Sunday.
It's New Years Eve tonight (Yay) and that is a special occasion around my house. My hubby and two boys are more excited for this evening than for their Birthday or even for Christmas. So naturally we make a big deal out of it - even if we're only 4 or 5 people around to celebrate it.
Every year I make decorations for New Years Eve and some is kept for next year and some don't survive (yes it gets pretty wild around here)
This year I set my eyes on the new Candles in Three Sizes for LED Tea Lights from an upcoming kit from SVG Attic. Watch for it in a set next summer for early Christmas crafting. You can also find the Candles in the Snapdragon Snippets store or in the Silhouette Design Store.

These are very easy to make and I made all three in a jiffy. I decided that since they are meant as decor for New Years Eve, I not only wanted them to be candles but to look like small crackers/fireworks as well.  The little "fuse" or paper flame is included with the candles and is simply assembled by rolling it on a pencil or something similar and gluing the tube together. Then curl the long strips. I just put it over the LED flame but you can also glue it inside the candle hole.
I made the candles in AC Cardstock in Black and decorated them with AC POW glitter paper with a chevron pattern in silver.
And what is New Years Eve without  Champagne or Champagne glasses?
So I made two 3D Champagne Glasses from the JGW New Years Celebration kit

I didn't use acetate on mine or decorated them with gems or stones but kept them in the same color scheme as the rest of my decorations: Black, White and Silver. I don't plan for using them for candy but I might use them as candle holders - a LED Tea Light fits perfectly in them.
I used AC Cardstock in White for the glasses and decorated them with AC POW glitter paper in Silver and Black. On the top of the glasses I put some glitter washi tape from my stash.
I must say that these were also very easy to make. The trick is to use a pencil or wooden dowel inside the stem as it helps to hold the top onto the stem and makes it more sturdy.
Well that was what I had to show you today. I wish a Happy New Year to all of you and hope to see you a lot more in 2018

A Toast To Your New Year

Hello and thanks for joining me today.
I just want to show you the card I made for my friends Birthday (it's today: Happy Birthday Sys!)
Usually I don't want to make Christmas themed cards for people who has Birthday around Christmas or New Year themed cards for those, who's Birthday is close to the New Year, because I think it important that their Birthday be celebrated like everyone else's. But in this case I made an exception.

This card is from the JGW New Years Celebration kit and I saw two meanings in the sentiment - One for toasting in the New Year and one for toasting in somebody's new year.....a Happy Birthday.

I made the card in Black and White AC Cardstock along with gold pearl paper, gold and silver AC POW glitter paper and gold and silver adhesive foil from Silhouette. Then I simply added some small bubble gems from Queen & Co. and Voila!

I gave my friend this card along with a bottle of bubbly Asti Spumante so she has something to toast in the New Year and her new year.

Thanks for joining me today - please come back tomorrow where I'll show you some of my New Years Eve decorations I just made.

Happy New Year ~ with Cyndy G.

Happy Friday.  I still can't believe it is the end of 2016.  I hope everyone had a wonderful holiday season and has a safe and happy New Year.  Today I am sharing with you the 3D Champagne Glass from JGW New Years Celebration.

This cute glass is about the size of a real wine glass.  I added pearl strands to the seams of my glass.

To give the impression of bubbles in a champagne glass I added gemstones.  
My treats are Pirouline, I just love these chocolates!  Thank you for stopping by today and I'll see you next year :)
