A couple more Christmas goodies!

  I was wrapping some presents the other day... in fact, it was all the goodies that came in the 2 Grab Bags that the boyfriend bought me for Christmas from Elle's Studio. He told me to wrap them.. I knew that he meant wrap the 2 Grab Bags, but I like wrapping, so I wrapped all the things in them individually, lol. 18 little packages in all!

Speaking of little packages.. I couldn't resist. The funny part is she didn't seem to mind one but. Still walked around the house, just slower.

This is my other niece making/eating some Christmas Cookies.. can you see the red frosting on her face?

A couple weeks ago, I had an idea to make a wreath out of Candy Canes. I finally got around to finishing it a couple days ago. I added thick cardboard on the front and back to hold it together. I used an old Kohl's 20% coupon to spread the glue around so I could add some green yarn.

This was the finished project! I loved how it turned out and I was going to add a couple other things on the yarn, like Merry Christmas and a couple goodies just to add some dimension.

As I was taking this picture, I thought to myself, "This is going to be in piece by New Years."

...And then it was. It didn't fall, I had taken it down and the Candy Canes were slick and it slipped, I went to catch it and it shattered. I was bummed but I started laughing. What can ya do! They were fragile piece of candy... at least I got a picture of it before it shattered into a million pieces. My dog, Scruffy was on the other side of the dog and he enjoyed all the Candy Cane that went under the door!!

Have a VERY Merry Christmas!

You Are Fabulous

I went with a picture I took of my 1 year old niece that I took this summer while she was wearing 3D glasses that we got from seeing the movie UP! Here's a picture of my oldest niece wearing them when she was little..

SUCH A HAM!

 I made this layout for Scrapbook.com's "Oh Baby! Challenge". You had to make a layout with a baby on it who was younger than 2 years old. The twist this month was to add flowers.

Don't you love the size of that photo? I actually printed it straight from Instagram using an App called "MoPho". You can order prints in 4x4 and 8x8! Like I said, you can choose them directly from Instagram, so even if you don't have the photo in your phone anymore, you can still print it! If you're going to order from there, make sure to look up a promo code first, they usually have one for 10 free prints or free shipping!

 I used Simple Stories Sn@p Sticker Labels. I bought 2 packages of them because I LOVE labels! So, you'll be seeing them a lot in the future! 

I used October Afternoon's "Mini Markplace Alphabet" Stickers for the title and finished it with a Making Memories Rub-On and some K & Co. stitches Rub-Ons.

 

I used some American Craft's "Baby Girl" Rub-Ons and My Mind's Eye "On the Bright Side". And one of my favorites.. Pink Paislee's "Junque".

I painted the background with some cream craft paint and sprayed some Tattered Angel's "Chocolate Covered Cherries" Glimmer Mist over it. 

Don't you love these flowers? They're actually one BIG Rub-On from Basic Grey's "June Bug" collection. I added some tiny gemstones to the flowers for a little more fabulousness!

I used My Mind's Eye "Love Me" and GCD Studio's "Oh Happy Day".

The label is from Jillibean Soup's "Love The..." Soup Labels.

The last but definitely not least part of my layout is this SUPER CUTE Flair Button! I bought them from Finding Nana. Go check out her Etsy, she has a TON of cute Flair Buttons for sale! I actually found her on Instagram! I bought the Bubble Quote pack (that's used here) and the Noteworthy pack!
