Birthday Girl Gift Set With Button Lovers

Hey friends, I am back and it is MONDAY! :) 

I have a project I created quite a while ago to share today- it

was for Button Lovers, you know I send some of my special projects

in once in a while to them. 

 I created this gift bag, card, tag, wand set for them using their beautiful buttons. 

 I made so many of these fan flowers I made my boys help me. 

 And I topped them off with the beautiful buttons. 

 Here is one side of the wand. 

 And the other, it was such a fun set to make!

Every piece was made with love. 

I used CutCardStock, 

Xyron Creative Station, 

Hot Glue, 

Blumenthal Lansing Buttons,

 White Gift Bag,

 Liquid Pearls,

 Ribbons Unlimited Ribbon.

Hello FOXY Xyron And Lawn Fawn!!

Hey there this week is GIVEAWAY and blog hop week with Xyron And Lawn Fawn. 

I created this fun card and a full tutorial for it...just follow along below. 

Stamp images onto CutCardStock- I stamped two so I could layer the pieces

Xyron Sticker makers work perfectly for layering. 

(Critters In The Forest By Lawn Fawn)

Cut images out-

 Use Xyron 3" Sticker Maker to layer image.

Trim out 4.5X6" Clear Scraps acrylic- then 4.5X7.5" patterned paper. 

Border punch top of patterned paper. Bone fold at 6" line. 

Use Xyron High Tack Tape on acrylic and  patterned paper and adhere. 

 Use High Tack Tape to adhere hand cut grassy area to the bottom of the card. 

 Use Xyron 3" Sticker Maker to adhere log to front of card.

 Use two layered Xyron Adhesive Dots to layer 

stamped fox image over. 

 Add small stamped images, and pearl dots to embellish. 

 Add twine bow to fox, and flower with sentiment using 

Xyron Adhesive Dots.

Summer Travel Necessities Holder- Adorn-it Fabric

Hello Monday and hello friends, 

 Many of you may know (or not) that I am definitely not a rule follower, I have been sewing for 25 years and I don't pin, I make up my own patterns and I just do what I like...so here is an easy Travel Case Idea with no pins, no pattern just numbers and straight lines:

Trim fabric to 17X8" and 5X8" contrasting. 

Stitch 8" side together- creating 22" long strip of fabric. 

Fold over in half to create 4" wide band. Stitch along bottom and side leaving top open. 

Turn right way and tap out corners. 

Fold fabric up to meet contrasting fabric, and create long pocket for toothbrush and toothpaste. 

Sew sides together. 

Stitch top closed or invisible stitch it closed. 

Fold over and add velcro OR button or leave as is. 

Now this will hold your summer travel necessities without a ziploc bag- and it can be washed!

I used the beautiful Adorn-it fabric for this project you can see all my 

Adorn-it projects on their blog!

Fabric Card Using Acrylic

Hey there, Happy Friday friends...

You know I have been Guest Designing for Adorn-it and I wanted to

be crafty not just sewing only with the cool fabric- 

I am telling you this fabric screamed for me to make a card. 

 Look it even says WISH in it!

So I created an acrylic card and stitched fabric right on the front..

who says there's a rule that you can't make fabric cards?

If there is one I can't find it! hahaha

Remember I am giving away this fabric on my blog HERE
