Let's Create...Sewing Cards...

Hey there peeps!

If you loved the sewing themed cards yesterday (and I know some did)

then you will love the set of cards today too! :)

I already created four cards plus an album, and

I can't wait to play some more!

I had this idea to put patterned paper behind the Clear Scraps Acrylic Button

and I love how it turned out.

The scissors I heat embossed to try to make them look

vintage. I think I almost melted them though! LOL

This was an amazing kit!

Creating Made Easy Kit

Tomorrow I have a HUGE BLOG HOP coming up so stay tuned please! :)

Happy Wednesday friends!

Birthday Gift Set BLINGED UP!

Hello there crafty friends,

If you haven't stopped by lately then you missed

this project! :) I created it and it posted while I was in Ohio.

Now that I am back I thought I would share.

I used CutCardStock papers and one of my favorite TEAL colors!
and blinged it up with my Xyron tapes-which I LOVE!

It was a fun project to create.

You can buy these adorable bags in most party stores

or cut and create your own with templates online.

Pick an area on the bag to glitter- use puffy paint to glitter the area.

Stamp OR print Birthday sentiment onto kraft paper or even a

bag you have cut up! Perfect for grocery bags. Trim it to 8.5X11 and

run it right through your printer!

Trim it out in the shape of a heart.

Take a plain white card and place Xyron Tapes around edges creating stripes.
Glitter over tape and dust off excess. A swifter comes in so handy for this.

Run the heart through your Xyron Sticker Maker.
Leaving the heart on the Xyron paper- use puffy paint again and
glitter edges. Shake off excess and leave on Xyron paper to dry.
