Happy Black Friday!

It's Friday, and not just any Friday, but Black Friday. Julie O here today from Muddy Paws & Inky Fingers. I, for one, am staying out of the stores.
But, there's still plenty of shopping to be done, including new trims at the 3 Girl JAM store.  I used the Holiday trim to create this:


This silver trim is perfect for dressing up a gift for Christmas!
I cut this box out on my Cricut.  The stamp is from Unity Stamp Co., colored with Copic markers, and inked with Tim Holtz distress inks.  I used a Spellbinders die to cut it out.

Face the Sunshine

Karen N here from Craftily Yours sharing a card I made for a friend who has had quite a bit of emotional upset in her life recently.  I wanted to let her know that there are people out there who care.  We all should know that, right?

I used some Tie Dye Blue Crinkle Ribbon, some blue Distressed Lace, Basic Grey Serenade paper and a Unity Stamp Company image/sentiment to make this card for her.


I love the sentiment, and the 3 Girl JAM ribbon and lace were perfect, don't ya think?

Fall Harvest Time Tag

Hi Friends! Abby here with ScrappinAbby and today I have a super fun Fall Harvest tag to share with all of you. I was able to play with some of the new Holiday Trim that is now in the 3 Girl JAM store.


I used the following 3 GJ goodies on this tag....

Holiday Trim-Gold Cording 

Royal Bundle-Gold Crown 

Hot & Cold Bundle-Hot Chocolate 






I absolutely LOVE the new Holiday Trim that Julie has in the store. The gold cording is so much fun to use and incorporate into the tag. Love how it just peeks out of the flower cluster. 

Be sure to head over to the 3 Girl JAM Store and pick up some of the new Holiday Trim and use it on your Fall projects. 

Thanks for stopping by the 3GJ blog today and for checking out another ScrappinAbby project.

one layout - 2 cards

Hello there, Nicole here today to share a couple of cards I made using the same sketch but different themes.


I used a sketch from Mojo Monday to create these cards.  On my Thanksgiving card, I used some Doodlebug "Friendly Forest" paper from the 6x6 pad.  I used cream ribbon from the  3 Girl JAM "Coffee Bundle" for my bow.  The cute little squirrel is from Create a Critter 2.


For my birthday card I used paper from My Mind's Eye "Hip Hip Hooray" and a piece of ephomera from the same collection for my accent.  This time I used some pink ribbon from the 3 Girl JAM "Ribbon Candy Bundle" for my bow.  


For both of my cards I used the 3 Girl JAM "Bow Maker" to make double bows which I glued onto the ribbon that I wrapped around the base layer of my card.


Thanks for stopping by today!!  Don't forget you can save 10% off your purchase using code NE10.

A Christmas Make Over

Hello everyone!
I had this "big idea" to redo some of my older
Christmas decorations.  Little did I know it would be so much fun.
 
 For many years we have purchased ornaments for our nieces and nephews.
This year I wanted to make them.
And I'm so glad I did.

I used blocks that spelled Merry Christmas to create
monogram ornaments.
 I added papers and bling and trinkets...
and of course some wonderful 3GirlJAM crinkle ribbon.
So my plain 'ole blocks...turned into treasures.
Oh...
Be sure to join our challenge this month!!
AND...check out the new release
If you decide to shop...enter the code DB10 at check out
to receive 10% off your purchase!
Have a GREAT day!

Knowledge is power by Marji


This is an image from The Stamping Chef.  I'm a huge owl fan if you didn't know, so when I saw this I knew I had to have it!
 I chose to use the jute ribbon and create an awareness ribbon.  I used the tan color to make it a neutral ribbon, just general awareness.  
 The pin in the center is one I created from beads I had in my stash.  The spotted feather is a real feather I picked up, (it's another thing I collect)  The other feathers are from a file I had in my SIL program.  The leaf is a die cut from My Favorite Things I had left over from a class I took.  I added a strip of glitter washi tape to the bottom.

Good Friends are God's Blessings

Happy Friday, fellow ribbon lovers!  Julie O here today and I have a friendship card to share with you today. I'm thankful for many things, and especially my good friends.  They get me through a lot!


I used 2 QKR Stampede digis on this card and colored it with Copic markers. The easel card is from My Scrap Chick. Papers are from Close To My Heart.
To  me, what really makes the card, is the crinkle ribbon that matches the image perfectly.  That is from 3 Girl JAM.  I used Goblin Green from the Spooky Bundle and combined it with Ice Blue from the Hot and Cold Bundle.  I used my 3 Girl JAM Bow maker  to make that double bow.  



 
You can buy these products yourself, for a discount, at 3 Girl JAM. Use coupon code JO10 for 10% off of anything in the store. 
  
During this season of giving thanks, I am concentrating on what is important in life. I don't know about you, but it would take me a loooooooong time to count all MY blessings!
