One more....

before I call it day.

I'm on this kick  now with other awesome blogs.   I'm finding so many great crafters and ideas and challenges, I just can't help myself and participate. It's been fun! I will certainly try to maintain this enthusiasm.  :-)



I love everything sparkly! For this card I'd thought I'd change it up a bit and use gold instead of silver. I did the sunburst pattern on the circle I cut out with the circle framelits set and flagged my banner by hand. It's fairly long so my banner framelits would not have worked this time around.  I did use my star framelits with the Typeset DSP and snowflake patterned stamp from the November Paper Pumpkin kit with the gold ink pad.  Did I mention I looooove framelits?! :-)

Bear with me.....


   This will be my first attempt in entering a project with another site and linking back to it.  The sketch layout is fantastic and had to take up the opportunity!

PCCCS #119

If you're wondering why I have the owl punch for this project, it would be because it had the perfect sized circles for the three little circles above the Typeset paper.   It was a little obsessive, but the size was just right.  lol

I couldn't sign off without a couple pics of Christmas projects.  Oh how I love Christmas crafting.  The best part? My kids and husband do too! Today we have my son's friend visiting and because I have craft particles everywhere, she'll have the chance to make some cool things for her family. (yes, I said she. yikes!)  Fun!

Ornaments or gift tags! I haven't even decided. 

I put this on a wine bottle but whatever your flavor may be, its a fun look and great tag when visiting friends during the holidays!

Wine bottle box. Seems like a running theme here, doesn't it? This is great for bottles of coffee also, not just wine.  :-)

 Oh and just for fun, look at this gem!  My 6 yr old has crafting skills. He loves his crafting! :-)

Happy Thanksgiving Week!!

Thanks for visiting!!

Potluck Workshop!

Good Morning!


       Food AND crafting?! Really, is there any other way? I, myself, spent part of my morning crafting while enjoying my coffee and fresh banana bread (made by my mom and dropped off early this morning. Nice, right?)  

       I'm cramming these to together for a Pre Turkey Day Potluck workshop! Yay! Now I'll get to eat, craft and hang out with friends! Can't we do this every day? Oh ya, work.  Guess I need to keep my job to support my habit. Lol!


I'm sharing a few projects I've planned for this weekends workshop.  I think gift tags are in order and some may be used at tags or ornaments.  Handmade tags and cards are a wonderful way to show those that receive them how special they are to you.  I love handmade gifts of any kind.  

First on deck:

   

 I cased this Santa on Pinterest. It's just so cute!!  I added googley eyes, I thought the kids might have fun with that!  My kids loved it! Here's a list of tools for this project.

Bigz L Gift Bow die ( I love this tool!)
1/2in Circle punch
Circle Framelits (for the face and cut in half)
Silver Glimmer paper

I did freehand the hat and trim.  Decide how tall/long you'd like the hat.  I then cut the width I wanted for the hat (approx 2 1/4in, depends on how big the face is, how much you want covered) and lined up the one corner with the midpoint at the other end.  Then cut the other side to match.  Hope this makes sense! 

Next up:

Foral Framelits ornament. I cased this for the general idea and then made some changes to make it 3D

Floral Framelits and Big Shot

Silver 1/8in Ribbon

Vellum

Silver Glimmer paper

Whisper White card stock

Frosted Sequins Embellishments

Glue dots

Liquid Multipurpose Glue (as far as glues go, this one is great. I finally tried it out on this project and I love it!)

One more before I wrapped it up:

This little cutie was simple and will be easy to make in multiples!  I first cut the card stock    2 x 3 1/4.  I punch one side of 2in sides with the Scallop punch. Next I used the Trim the Tree paper pack and cut one piece at  1 1/4in x 2 in and Gold Glimmer Paper at 1/4in x 2in. Punch very vanilla card stock with the 1 3/4in x 7/8in oval punch. Then using Chocolate Chip ink pad, stamp you saying smack dab in the middle.  

Scallop Tag Punch
Paper Trimmer
Trim the Tree paper pack (these are handy because there's such a variety, their affordable and the size if perfect for these projects.)
Gold Glimmer paper
Oval Punch 1 3/4in x 7/8in
Twine of your choosing
Get Your Santa On Photopolymer Stamp Set


Hope you like and it inspires you to create your own projects! I love to craft and even more so with my kids, husband, friends and family!

Goodbye Halloween.......

 until next year.  --sigh--- 

Hello Thanksgiving! I'm sad Halloween come and went so quickly for my household but incredibly happy to welcome the more intimate holidays we have with our family and friends.  The cooler weather is wonderful and the time change is slowly growing on me. :-)

I'd like to share the final Halloween treat I made for my boys' classrooms.  

I secured these with some Sticky Tape and closed them with cool Halloween Washi Tape. The boys were super excited to hand these out at school.  I was pretty happy with the way they turned out. Easy peasy! :-))

Thanksgiving projects are on the way as well as Christmas tags and cards, of course.  To start things off, here's a Thanksgiving card I made a couple months ago (you'd think I was more on top of things now that the holidays are right on top of me) and I absolutely love it! I can't get enough of the two tone stamping and have yet to try three. Whoa.  So here it is. Hope you like!
