Christmas Decorations!

Hello Hello!

I wanted to share some Christmas decorations I made this year, in the midst of Wedding goodies!!

I made this ornament LAST YEAR from my boyfriends Mustang key. He had traded it in and forgot he had another key, so I recycled it!

This might be becoming a tradition! Maybe I'll make one every year!

For this years, I used scrabble tiles and glued them together with Glossy Accents. That glue will hold ANYTHING! I use it on all sorts of things around the house because it's so strong. I glued some twine to the back as a hook and that was it. For the rest of the year, I will tape down the twine and have it as a decorations in my room.

 I made this banner for my sister for her tree. I used some Kraft Cardstock and my Cricut with the Base Camp cartridge to cute the letters. I also used Fiskar's "Apron Lace" punch for the bottom of each piece. I used KI Memories "Holly Jolly" paper for the bottom as well. I added 2 small eyelets on the top corner of each piece and threaded twine through all of them.

Welcome to the world little one!

I found this Happy Birthday card on Pinterest.. there's no watermark and it doesn't go to a site, so I'm not positive on who made the original.

I made it a baby card and used Bo Bunny, Basic Grey, Crate, and The Girls Paperie!

 

Happy Birthday Banner Card

A simple, but lovely Birthday card! 

I lifted this card from ~{Puppet}~ on Scrapbook.com. You can see her card, HERE.

Baby Cards!

A friend asked if I could make 3 baby shower cards for her, so here they are!

They're all for the June Card Challenge for Theme, which is Baby.

I lifted this card from Pinterest, but it originally came from the blog, All Things Lovely.

I used tags that had punched holes in them, but cut that part off. I used some Blue Berry Trendy Twine for the banner.

I LOVE this card! I lifted it from Danielle Flanders.. check out her awesome blog, Homespun with Heart.

I created my own pattern after looking at hers.

This one is also for the June Card Challenge for Product, which is chipboard.

I sanded the edges of the chipboard stars and inked them.

I inked the edges with Vintage Photo Distress Ink and stitched on some old buttons with twine.

When my friend told me this almost new ones name, I knew exactly what I wanted the card to look like. Pink, vintage and doilies! Doesn't her name scream that?

I inked a doily with pink.

I used a ribbon flower with an old vintage earring for the center. I added 2 stick pins to the top of it.

May Card Challenge - Lift & some 50% off goodies!!

A couple of months ago, I went into Aaron Brother's to get a frame and I noticed they had a bunch of Ranger products. I didn't need anything, so surprisingly, I didn't buy anything!! 

On Friday I went in purposely going to get some Faded Denim Distress Ink. They didn't have any though! Infact all the Distress Ink was gone! I asked and he showed me where the 50% table was. So glad I asked! They didn't have Faded Denim but they did have Broken China. Broken China is just a bit brighter.. works for me!!

I also got some Ranger Sparkle Embossing Powder, Distress Crackle Paint, some Copper Stickles, some super cute number banners from Jenni Bowlin. I also got something I've wanted for a while... Tim Holtz's Tiny Attacher!! I had only picked up 2 of the 3 extra staples that were there and the guy who was checking me out said "you should get all that we have!" I told him "You sound like my Mom" lol. So I went back and got the other... he's right though, I'll probably never find them that cheap! They each have 1550 staples, so I'm set for a while!!

 

I made this card for the May Card Challenge for Lift. We lifted Placktorin's "Happy Birthday" Card on scrapbook.com.

I added some Strawberry Cupcake Trendy Twine.
