Christmas Card Hanger (Garland)

Happy Hump Day friends! 

It's another holiday project, I love Christmas crafts....

The Clear Scraps Swirl Christmas Tree Mascil/Stencil works perfectly for a swirly look on the Bell Acrylic Mini Album (both are in the kit). 

I used spray paint and glitter to create the unique shiny look. 

After that the October Afternoon paper in the kit made a beautiful background. 

Just a dab of Beacon adhesive behind the spray painted areas hide the glue perfectly. 

After it is all set, add clothespins and use the snowflake brads to attach to ribbon!

Fun, easy and functional, that my middle name LOL

Christmas Tree Cards

Hello Monday and hello friends, I am so behind on holiday crafting!

After my accident I just can't catch up! Hahaha I guess it's life. :)

I did want to share these fun Christmas Tree Cards I made using the 

December Kit from Creating Made Easy. 

They are stenciled using Clear Scraps Stencils and Krylon Spray Paint. 

I had fun making them and they are going to be so cute for my friends. 

Happy holidays my friends, have a wonderfully crafty day.

Stenciled Canvas Gift Bag Tutorial!

Yes, I am still crafting! LOL 

Since the divorce, it is so difficult to blog consistently, 

working and taking care of two boys by myself just limits my time.

I wish I had more blog time, I will try in 2016. 

So this is a project I created for publication and here is a photo tutorial for it.

CLEAR SCRAPS STENCIL!

A little spray paint on the edges and viola! :) 

Beautiful Gift Holder Idea!

You're My Favorite Flake Clear Card Fun!

Yesterday I shared a Wine Glass Votive Holder and today

using the same stamps I have these clear cards.

You're My Favorite Flake is the best quote ever! LOL

 Avocado Arts always makes me happy and stamping with white 

StazOn ink also makes me happy, Clear Scraps is such a fun product. 

 I wish the shimmer on this card would show, it's really pretty. 

The snowman shape is a Clear Scraps MINI album page .

Love love snowy crafting!

Wine Glass Stamped Votive Holder

Everyone tells me to wait for holiday crafts, BUT I CANNOT! 

LOL, I love snowflakes and snowy fun...it's happening people.

Plus it's a wine glass that holds alcohol...just saying'.

This is the latest set of stamps from Avocado Arts and 

of course I can't even handle the awesomeness. 

For this Wine Glass Votive Holder I used embossing powder in gold

around the lip of the glass, then I stamped the snowflakes onto the glass

using StazOn ink in Cotton White with the Season's Tweetings stamps. 

That's IT! It's so pretty and so simple too. It took a couple tries to get the

stamps right with the curve of the glass, so I suggest you try on an old 

jar first, or maybe a glass you can wipe off later with nail polish remover. 

If you mess up, just remove with nail polish remover and start over!

Check out Avocado Arts Stamps they are beautiful.

Bird Cage Ornament

Sending much respect and love to our veterans today!!

I think one of my favorite things about Clear Scraps is the durability, 

I can make an ornament and I know it's just as durable as one

I have bought and I will have it for years to come. 

With the November Kit from Creating Made Easy I created this 

ornament I painted the back and graduated the colors. 

I did use my bakers twine but the rest was this adorable kit!

Fall Window Card Tutorial

I was playing with the Creating Made Easy kit and decided to take

the ATC cards in it and create "window cards" that have a clear

window in the front, fun right?! 

Here is a step by step photo tutorial that you can use to create your own!

Don't forget to erase your tracing lines!

I love the colors and style of this kit.

Turning A Canvas Fence Into A Mini!

I had fun with this Linnie Blooms Canvas Fence, I turned it into a Mini.

Actually I also stamped on the canvas using StazOn inks. 

There is a in holding the top together where I punched a hole.

This was for SNA a few months ago. 

Sometimes you just gotta go with that strikes you. :) 

I was stricken with a mini! LOL

Happy Tuesday friends. Have a beautiful day. 

Happy People Are Thankful-Fox Project

 Cannot believe it is already November! 

That means a fun FOX project from the newest kit at Creating Made Easy.

Going Away Card

Personally I find Going Away cards and Condolence cards the 

hardest to create. I am not sure if it's a mental block or the subject. 

Hello my friends, happy Monday!

Also using travel collections always messes me up too, but 

I actually like this card I created a couple months ago. 

It was in SNA and I used Momenta for it. 

The postal stamp mark is actually not a stamp but a piece of acetate.

Theres always something  on my table these days! :)
