Guess what time it is?!

How fun is this?!

JustRite Stampers has a NEW! Release, and this is the PERFECT time for you to get inspired by all the new images!

Im excited because they FINALLY have a square block and NEW! Square images.  I was over the moon to see that!

There are 9 new products to check out —->HERE!

Here is my first (of many to come) samples

Dream Big

A motto I live by.

This sentiment just called out to me. This is from  Just a Note Borders & Centers 1 5/8″. Of course I’m always DREAMING BIG (wink) and love the addition of the butterflies, as they are TOTALLY my thing! I didn’t go with the circle borders though because I wanted you to see that these images can also be used with OTHER shapes, and co-ordinate inside the new square borders they just released! More for you $$!! Love versatility.

Keep that in mind! JUST because they come in circle form, don’t let that limit your creativeness to only use with circle borders

I really loved this particular border from 2″ Square Decorative Frames. I used a glue pen and added some YUMMY Flower Soft to the vine like border, to appear to be like flowers! I *just* got flower soft and if you haven’t noticed I’m starting to LOVE it. It was just what this frame needed to kick it up a notch! It really looks like little flower clusters in person.

I want to send this to Kelliebecause she is an amazing person, and like me, has many big dreams! She has just been an amazing support to me lately (even though she may not realize it). She is like what every mentor should be! She is encouraging, supportive, understanding, and helpful in every-way. You know she truly believes in you when she says it.

Thank you Kellie!

Well I have much yet to do so I can share more with you this week. Before the weekend I have a HUGE announcement that may leave you all speechless! Something to think about this week

Later!

Well its the 14th! That means that the Papertrey Ink Release party is tonight!

So I have more projects to share using the NEWEST! My Timeless Templates © Home Made © and Time for Take Out ©

Sadly I’m still as sick as ever, so I need to brief. I have all I can do to keep my head up. I felt so bad since yesterday was Noah’s birthday and I wasn’t able to get out of bed for very long. Needless to say we did NOT make it to the movies. He did have a scavenger hunt for his gifts, and decided to spend his day playing with all his new stuff! I don’t think he even noticed my absence. We will save the movie for when we are ALL healthy. I don’t want to pass whatever I have on to ANYONE else.

OK now let’s get to the projects!

Home Made © Twas the Night Before Christmas

and all through the house

Not a creature was stirring, not even a mouse

The stocking were hung, by the chimney with care (he sits nicely on the roof, or can come off!)

In hopes that Saint Nicholas soon would be there! (back of house)

That is my version of the ‘Twas Night Before Christmas!

I had some light garland from my PSF (Bonnie - I think! If I remember correctly OR it was my other PSF Barb!) and used to to decorate my Home Made © template. How perfect it was! I scored the boards on the house. Added some snow, and it was just about ready!

Then I KNEW I had to add Santa and his sleigh

My Santa is from Holiday Button Bits. I used my iTopp to create his brad belly! I love it!! His beard and hat are fun flocked too. I used my Cricut Expression to create my sleigh. I made mine 3D! I then wrapped a cotton ball with gold tissue paper for his sack. The list is one of the signature background basics, cut and rolled into a real life “naughty/nice list”.

Supplies:

My Timeless Template: Home Made, Holiday Button Bits
Stamps: Home Made, Holiday Button Bits
Cardstock: Pure Poppy, Smokey Shadow, White
Ink:Black & copic markers
Christmas light ribbon, sleigh cartridge from cricut, i topp, brad, glue, chunky glitter, silver cording, white fun flock

Autumn Delights

Here is another set using the NEW! Time for Take Out © I hope this template isn’t get overshadowed by the AMAZING Home Made © template, because it is PURE fun!

I love creating with the standard and pretty petite sizes. Now you have lots of options for what you want to package up.

I’m in love with the Autumn Abundance  patterned paper. Its stunning all by itself!

All I did was add a paper punched flower to the top. Some leaves from Prima, and some jeweled ones too.

This is the fold in flap detail. Really pretty, with lots of possibilities!

Nothing is better than a box of chocolate! One of my FAVES!

My Timeless Template: Time for Take Out
Cardstock: Summer Sunrise, Orange Zest
Patterned paper:Autumn Abundance
ribbon: orange zest bitty dots
flower punches, adhesive rhinestones

Well that does it for me. I need to get back to bed and recover while Jay is home to care for the kids.

I’m so happy to have you all share my excitement for the templates each month! I can’t tell you how much I enjoy sharing  them with you, and even more so, seeing your creations!

Well I’m excited to share a PEEK at today’s project!

NOTE: Template not available until the 15th!

It is also my son, Noah’s 7th Birthday!! I can’t believe how fast time went by, and how big he is! That is for another day……

OK back to “business”.

The entire team at Papertrey Ink is getting in on the template FUN! Finally!!

 We each have ONE peek of our projects using the NEW! Home Made © Template/Stamp set.

This month will run a little differently. Normally you get 5 EXCLUSIVE ideas with the template download. THIS month you get a PEEK at each project and a grand total of 11 projects ideas, complete with additional photos, supplies and instructions for completing each one with the template purchase.

Can you believe this template is ONLY $5!

The template includes:

 house base

roof box top

PRINTED roof toppers! So no lining up stamps

2 back dormers

1 larger front dormer

and a chimney.

SOOOOOOOOO many possibilities its insane.

 You have PLENTY of time to make your holiday gifts still

How cool is it that we have a template and stamp combo for this one :D  I cannot tell you how many hours went in to perfecting this template. This is one of those ideas that wakes me up at 4am (it is ALWAYS 4am for some odd reason too! LOL!) and then next thing you know it goes from a sketch, to a tangible template! Just like that! (I wish! LOL!) OK LOTS of cardstock wasted, but it is so worth it

I could seriously gush over this forever, but I don’t think I need to. You can see for yourself and know just how many amazing things can truly be done with it!

Now you may think that the stamp set is *just* for the templates. Well no, it can be used for cards too!

I made mine to match my Home Made box!

Isn’t that cute?

All the same elements…..just on a card. I love it.

I wish I could share more……but I can’t. But you can check out the design teams projects while you wait!

Each project is so unique!

Tomorrow I have another FAB Home Made ©project, that will REALLY inspire you for the holidays Can’t wait to share that. I think if you were on the fence, you will fall over to the other side! LOL!

I think you may all have some ideas of why I’m always so “busy” these days! There is just SO much more to come

Thanks for stopping by!

Have a great day, and see you back here tomorrow!

Please check this out if you get time!

For Henry

This is a stamp or digi image made for the Anderson family who are grieving the loss of their son Henry. I posted about this the other day here.

Today’s project is just one example as to WHY I love this craft so much, and sharing what I love to do with the world! 

If this doesn’t get you excited for the holidays then I don’t know WHAT will. I am beyond excited to share this is a super fun project that is INEXPENSIVE, and you can even let the kids make their own!! (After you do the basic assembly of supplies!) THIS is a gift worth giving every family member at some point, and it doesn’t even have to be HOLIDAY themed!!

 Would you believe it if I told you that this was originally a Wire Folding Easel? <—- Seriously check it out

Family Tree

Would you believe me if I told you that I used it to designed my very own photo/card display for ONLY $2.29?

Well believe it.

I have longed to create a special photo/card holder to display during the holidays. One that I can easily switch out photos & cards for, year after year. The store bought ones aren’t generally festive, and can easily cost upwards of $20.  All you need is a little imagination and some Papertrey to get your own started!

I was in the plant supply section at JoAnn’s, buying some festive elements to use in my holiday gift packaging. This is definitely the time of year I make something for everyone!! While in the aisle, my 5 yo daughter Amber said “Mommy, is that like a Christmas tree?” and she pointed to the wire easel. IMMEDIATELY my mind began SPINNING!! I said “It’s not suppose to be a tree, but you have very good eyes Amber! We are going to take it home and make a special tree for our house!” I literally forgot about everything I was there to get and about 2 hours later this project was made! Now It took 2 hours because I had NO IDEA what or HOW I was going to execute the “tree” that was in my head.

So with a little cardstock, Scor-Tape, hot glue gun, ribbon, clips, my Cricut Expression, and of course some festive holiday stamps

(—> Click here to view all the images listed in  my post)……and our Family Tree was made!

Here is how: (and NO I didn’t get step by step photos, I needed my hands to keep up with my brain, and quite honestly I didn’t think this would actually work! LOL!)

I first wrapped my ribbon around the easel, being sure to secure it with glue as it wrapped around the wire frame. I laid the tree on the floor and used 2 pieces of spring moss cardstock to trace the tree. I then cut them. I  used my Scor-Tape to adhere the cardstock to the BACK of the open wire easel frame.

BE SURE TO KEEP EVERYTHING NEAT! You can see the back and sides on this project! NO messy stuff OK.

Added my metal clips to the ribbon that criss crosses in ripe avocado …….then just like after you apply your lights to the tree, you decorate it!

Tippity Top of the easel tree

There was a little hook at the top of the easel. I used it to insert my bird. There was a clip under the bird but I removed it. Squeezed in some hot glue, then stuck it onto the hook.  I got the bird at the craft store to use as my tree topper (and cover the hook!) I added some of the berries I purchased to the top as well. I used the gift from Holiday Button Bits. I also used an ornament from Vintage Ornaments.

I also used the 2009 Holiday tags, and Stocking Prints.  Then our family photo at the top!

I punched some snowflakes, and added a photo of myself, Jason, and Noah in the middle. I used the mitten image from Snowfall on either side. I thought they looked cute not fully inked.

Now under Noah’s face we have the gingerbread man from Holiday Button bits, as well as Santa next to Amber! For Alexa I used a little present from Sign Language. You can also see another Vintage ornament, and the snowman tag from 2009 Holiday Tags.

Added some more berries, and the poinsettia from Peaceful Poinsettia to the center. More tags from the 2009 Holiday Tag collection!

I had to design the bottom to spell out “Family” tree, then use the tree image from Merry & Bright at the end!

Now “Family” is spelled out using my Cricut Expression Story Book cartridge.

Last but not least, I added some white tinsel furry stuff (what is that called??) to look like a snowy bottom.

Once again here is the completed tree

Supplies:

Stamps: Merry & Bright, 2009 Holiday Tags, Snowfall, Holiday Button Bits, Vintage Ornaments, Sign Language, Stocking Prints

Cardstock: White, Spring Moss, Pure Poppy, Kraft

Ink: Black, Pure Poppy, Ripe Avocado, Copic Markers

Ribbon: Ripe Avocado grosgrain, Pure Poppy polka dot

Other: Easel, metal clips, Cricut Story Book, circle punch, snowflake punch, hot glue gun, Scor-Tape, bird, berries, fur, adheisve rhinestones

Now I bet you cannot wait to decorate your own!

Just pick a color scheme and get going.

Now this will be for our family photos, but you can certainly use to hold cards and other fun items too! Maybe even an ART tree for your child’s art work?! Endless possibilities!

Thank you ALL for stopping by!

I can’t tell you how fun this was. Kids have such a great eye for seeing something in other items! For example, just go cloud gazing and you will be shocked at the imagination of a child! I give my daughter Amber full credit for the idea behind this project! I never would have seen a “tree” in that isle. I would have totally overlooked that ugly easel!

Note to self: Take Amber with you on ALL trips to the craft store, from now on!

Per my usual I’m on the run, but I have some important things to share so I’m stopping by quickly.

No eye candy today.

Before you read today’s “news” you may want to just take a moment and hug your own children or loved ones. We should never forget how fragile and precious life is. Your entire life can change in an instant. Tomorrow is never a guarantee. That being said what I have to share breaks my heart. I feel for all those affected and know that their lives are forever changed, in just a second.

I work for Pink Cat Studio. One of our girls has suffered a severe loss. Something no mom should ever have to go though.

This is the info we are all using the spread the word:

This week has been a very sad one as DT member Sarah Anderson’s 3 year old son Henry passed away. Little Henry was unable to overcome a virus that made him ill last week.

 Lorie Ames has organized a way to donate for a memorial for Henry. Henry loved his local zoo and visited it almost every day in the summer. As a memorial, trees will be planted there in his honor. Melissa at Pink Cat Studio has created a digital stamp to help raise funds for a tree for Henry. All proceeds from the sale of the digi stamp, minus Paypal costs, will go towards the tree. If you would like to donate towards the tree, please visit this webpage to purchase the digi stamp: http://www.pinkcatstudio.com/Digital/DigiStamps/Animals/Zoo/GiraffeAndMonkey.htm

Another way to donate to the memorial is to print out this form and mail in your donation directly: http://www.ci.oshkosh.wi.us/Parks/PDF/MemorialTreePamphlet.pdf

Please write on the form that the donation is for Sarah Anderson’s son Henry. Once all of the money is collected, a tree and location will be selected. If you have questions about the form please contact Lorie Ames. Lorie will be in contact with Sarah along this memorial journey to ensure that her wishes are followed.

To contact Lorie, please visit her blog at http://www.live-love-laugh-create.blogspot.com/

If you don’t know Sarah and would like to learn more about her, please visit her blog: http://scrampinmama.blogspot.com/ Thank you for your help to raise money for a tree for Henry.

Today is the day for the Pink Cat Studio release of Itty Bitty Halloween!

Here they are!

Aren’t they so cute?

You can get your set —>HERE!

In the meantime, if you need some ideas, I have 2 more for you

Free Broom Rides

I thought this image and sentiment were SO cute!

I have been making lots of fun tag style treatlets, this past month or so, and I have another FUN one for you

Well, I LOVE to be green!

And NO! I don’t mean my witches face!! I mean RECYCLING!

I have MANY recycled projects from the past: (click links)

Many Merry Moments

Twinkling Tree

Dome top gift box

Strawberry Bag

Embellish It

Fancy Flower

Amongst others, that I just couldn’t EASILY locate for you :C

So back to being GREEN…….

I save ALL my Crystal Light drink mix cups. Once I make a pitcher, I rinse out the cup and put it in my stash to later re-use them on gift packaging.

Like this!

Can it get cuter?

I just pop it through the front of my tag, and filled it with Chocolate candy crunch balls, wrapped like eyeballs! It only fits 3 or 4 so its PERFECT for when you need a LOT! You can sparingly give the candy! LOL!

Pretty cute huh?

I’m bummed that the glittery moon doesn’t show up glittery!

Anywho, I have another “green” project for ya!

How about covering a black paper bag? You know those cheapie lunch bags you can get at the Craft store? Some come in colors.

Then take it and make a COOL Pop Up bag?

Now this is WAY cooler than MOST standard covered bags! Its totally 3 D!

All I did was take some black cardstock, and folded it like a card.

Flipped it up side down (fold at bottom) and “decorated” what would be the INSIDE of the card. Then adhered it to my bag front!

Using dimensionals and the pop out cardstock form you would use for a pop out card, I adhered the kiddies to the base!

I just love this fun bag cover!

The tree is a Back to School cartridge from my SLICE Bat is a Martha Punch, and the moon-obviously a circle

So there you have my last contributions for the countdown, with the ever adorable Itty Bitty Halloween Set!

Check out all the designers blogs for more great samples.

Tomorrow I’ll be back with MORE! So come on back

I have a sketch for you today-but of course am running late. My camera battery was dead, so I have to charge that! Last minute errands to run-so my battery should be charged when I get back!

Thanks for checkin in-see ya in a bit

Do you ever have a gift like that?

You just want a fancy tag to slap on top and be done with it?

When you add a card then you  have to write a bunch of stuff inside, when a “Hey this is from me, to you!” is more than sufficient! ESPECIALLY around the holidays! Or, maybe its just too big and overpowering for your small gesture of thanks. I have encountered that on NUMEROUS occasion.

Something I have personally ALWAYS loved seeing in paper-crafting magazine’s were TAGS! I know! So simple right? I just always loved the many ways they have been designed! Its like a card, just not as big (unless you really want it that big) they can have fun curves without it being too weird, and again, you just slap it on!

If you look at some of my recent work you will see I have been making more and more of these large style tags, in various shapes/sizes (Don’t get me wrong-I like little tags too) to fill my own creative need to replicate items that I love seeing but never make myself. Its been like a personal challenge.

I LOVE stamping, but honestly *just* making cards all the time gets boring to me. I love to mix it up! I think that is why I have always done so many altered items and gift packaging too-keeps my brain going OUTSIDE the box!

Anyway, point of all this tag talk is my peek for today!

Tag: Just for you

Not too shabby for a tag eh? I have to admit I LOVE it!! Simple yet not.

It began with my leaf image (I believe that was from the Fall Kit) across the bottom of a smaller tag. I just dotted various Copic markers for a funky fall look.

 I then used the pumpkins from the set, and layered them on. Then came the 3D cat! Not sure WHY but I was drawn to her. Plus she became a great source of POP for the tag. Always need to have ONE thing that draws your eye in.

I was originally going to make just that one lil tag (a Marvy tag punch I have and LOVE), but got carried away-in a good way, and layered it on to a larger tag that I made using a little creativity with my Nestabilities Labels 9! Made the perfect tag top for me. I just rounded my bottom corners and decorated as you see here.

The flowers are so pretty! I believe this is the Country Elegance collection

Now for the tag deets

This set uses a NEW! Halloween Gift Giving set-from C.C. Designs.

(sentiment and leaf border if from Autumn stamp kit)

Check the –> ATS Blog <—to enter for a chance to win this set FREE!

Includes  21 rubber stamps attached to cling foam ready to be cut out.

Price: $10.75

Stamp set will be available Monday September 7th at 10:00pm est.

Now comes the part about slapping it on a simple gift!

This is just a A2 clear card box-filled with Hot Apple Cider Mix packets! A definite Autumn themed gift, perfect for anyone! It is simple and inexpensive, yet thoughtful-and delicious! Oh and did ya notice it matched my color scheme perfectly? :D)

So that is all my blabbering for today!

More to come tomorrow. I actually spent all last night (last minute) making Amber’s Princess Party invitations! I suddenly realized NO SCHOOL tomorrow-and then none on Monday-her party is the 19th.  I like to give people at least a 2 week notice, but didn’t want to overwhelm them the first week of school (and I was really busy), so I waited. Amber reminded me at 8 o’clock that I needed to have 12 invites done for this morning. OH! BOY!

The good news, I did it! Took about 2 hours, but it is done.

Now keep in mind, Amber is very picky about what I do! She is a little paper crafter with a BIG opinion. I had to make one and get her approval first! She added some “suggestions” about what I could do to make it “better” and then went to bed! LOL! Let me tell you that girl LOVES her BLING!

I’ll post the photos soon. I have to say she was right too! I was really wanting to just keep it simple since they are definitely getting trashed, but she threw my own words back at me “Mom, this shows what kind of pretty princess party I’m having, so they have to be perfect! Even if they get thrown out! I only turn 5 ONCE!” (Stuff I say to my husband when I throw all these crazy parties with handmade everything-often making myself CRAZY-but when its over-WELL worth every second!) Now that theya re finely detailed I have to say they look pretty and FUN! I would come to her costume party! All the girls need to dress up like princesses and will make all sorts of stuff! I think Amber really LOVED the Princess Party I had for Alexa’s 8th birthday because she basically wanted EVERYTHING to be JUST like it Easy for me, since I have been there, done that!

So I’m off to get last minute photos of the invites, then get my butt in front of the TV for a workout before getting Amber off to school. All in a days work I guess. Back home with a HUGE to do list. PRAY my mojo has woken up by then-its been in hibernation for a month, making everything painstakingly slow.

Thanks for stopping by!

I hope you try making some large tags! They are so fun!!!!!!!!!!!

Well I just have to start today by saying a HUGE thank you to each of you who have helped me with links and advice on my NEW! Cricut Expression! YOU ROCK!

While it sits in the box (I simply CAN’T open it until I get my WORK done!) I have LOTS to review now thanks to you all.

So far I got the Design Studio and Juke Box (both on sale)

Let me know if you took the plunge with me OK!

Obviously I’ll keep you posted on my success once I get past the next 3 weeks of work stuff. (NO my Cricut won’t be in the box all that time :D) I know once I get going, everything else will fall apart till I had my FUN FILL.

OK on to business people!

Now I have the start of a week of peeks featuring designs from C.C. Designs September Release. Check out the BLOG for your chance to win the peeking set each day!

The release will be Monday Sept 7th!!

First up……

Too Cute to Spook

And is it ever! I love the owl on the moon like that-Great job Diane

I missed posting day one of peeks yesterday which began with Dianes set: Ollie and Griselda

I decided to stamp, color and cut the owl image, and make a QUICK pixie stix holder for a sweet treat! Easy peasy.

The bling is my starry night sky (in case you were wondering).

Next up is AmyR’s Halloween Sentiments set

Something good-

I adore the sentiment with that sad lookin lil clown! How cute is he?!

I bet he’d perk right up with some candy.

I had to mimic the circles in his out fit, by adding all the FUN buttons. The reminded me of gumballs too.

He was part of the Fall Kit-but will be available as a single for the Autumn Sugar Plums Stamps-which have kids, sentiments and accessories (like the bench he is on). Really AWESOME stuff let me tell you. These are part of the images I brought to the hospital to color when Jay had surgery. Oh did the nurses go NUTS!!!!!!!!

Well that does it for me. I’m having a hard time getting back into my mojo these days. Almost a month of LITTLE to NO stamping about KILLED me, and my mojo is SLOW to return. Normally my ideas are flowing and I’m whipping it out, but jeesh, this past week has been ROUGH.

Hopefully it returns before the end of the week! I got stuff to do!
