Festive Birthday

 

You might need your shades for this card. it is so bright!  This is another card from our monthly Occasions class, we always do a birthday card since that is the card people send most often and it is my favorite to make.  I used the Biggest Birthday  Ever stamp set and the matching Wish Big Framelit dies.  The DSP is from Festive Birthday.  Thanks for stopping by!

Swirly Scribbles

We have been without internet for 10 days which is just crazy, of course Thanksgiving was in that 10 days but you would think they could of got it fixed sooner than 10 days.  Anyway, I have one of the cards from my monthly Occasions class to share today.  The In Colors are perfect for flowers and the Swirly Scribbles dies make such pretty wreaths.  The sentiment is from the Open Heart stamp set.  thanks for stopping by!

Lip Balm Holders

I get a lot of request for directions on these little lip balm holders so I thought I would write up the directions.  The main part is from the retired Two Tags Die but you could easily cut just the paper and add a decorative edge to the tops and fold it to form the bottom.  One of the die cuts from this die measure 4 x 2 3/4 and are scored at 1 3/4 from the bottom edge.  I cut  two of them and glued them together at the score lines.

 

The part that holds the lip balm measures 2 x 3 1/8 and is scored at 5/8,1 1/4,1 7/8, and 2 1/2 and then glued into the center of the two die cuts.

Just in case you are interested, I do these dress boxes in most of the Disney princesses for birthday parties as well as wedding dresses for weddings.  They have a small box built in which could hold small favors such as jewelry or candy.  I ship them flat but they are easily formed.

 

Here is the original one I made a few years ago.  If you have further questions, let me know.  thanks for stopping by!

A Lotta Gobble Gobbles

These cuties are for a custom order I got during my craft show.  My Dalton saw these and asked me why I had a lotta gobble gobbles hence the title for my post.  He couldn't remember what they were, just that they say "gobble gobble".  Love my sweet boy!  Thanks for stopping by.

Craft show Goodies

I thought you may be interested in seeing some of the items that were the best sellers from my craft shows.  A friend gave me several of theses empty cappuccino jars and I made them into Milk for Santa jars.  I sold out the first day and made a few more last week to have in my shop. 

 

 

These little snowmen treats were popular as well, they hold two chocolate nuggets.  I sold out of these as well plus have an order for 65 more.

 

 

 

 

I only  have nine of the 65 done so that is what I will be concentrating on tomorrow.

 

 

 

 

I had two left out of 25 of these snowmen hats.

 

 

 

More nugget treats with a reindeer tag.  I had several more custom orders as well which I will share as I get them ready.  Thanks for stopping by!







Santa's Sleigh Scene

 

I made these for my craft show and I had a customer to ask me to make her 6 sets of each of them for her grandchildren.  I mailed them out this morning!

 

For the sleigh I cut the runners twice and adhered them together to make them more stable.  The seat was made with a piece of cardstock that is 2 1/2 inches wide and 4 1/2 inches long, and scored at 1/4 inches on both sides of the long side and at 1 inch and 4 1/4 inches on the short side.

I stamped and cut four trees, scored them down the middle, and adhered them back to back.

I added a piece of white cardstock to the bottom of the snowman to make him stand up.  Thanks for stopping by!

Holly Berry Happiness

Today I have a Christmas card made with the Holly Berry Happiness stamp set and matching punch.  I am working on another project with this stamp set that I will show you soon.  Thanks for stopping by!

Blessing of You

 

I love how this card turned out, totally not what I had in mind but like it anyway.  I used the Basket of Wishes stamp set from the Holiday catalog and the Moroccan DSP.  I had my craft show this past weekend and it was awesome.  A huge thank you to everyone who stopped by, bought from me or ordered from me.  I have several custom orders to get done over the next few days and then hopefully I can post more on a regular basis.  thanks for stopping by!

Swirly Scribbles Pumpkin

 

I have seen the Swirly Scribbles made into a lot of different things so I made a few cards using them for my craft show.  This is such a versatile set and can be used for several holidays.  Thanks for stopping by!

Star of Light

Love this stamp set mainly for the sentiments.  For the Christmas cards I send, I like to put a religious sentiment on them and this set has five that are perfect.    Another plus, it has a set of framelits to go with it.  Thanks for stopping by!
