A card and a layout

I have two projects to share today:

1) The Monday challenge is up on the Kaboodle Doodles Challenge Blog. This week the challenge is: “Let It Snow”.

January = cold and snow.   I don’t like being cold and I don’t like snow. Since we live in Ohio (and until we retire) I’ll make the best of it. J

It’s Friday and I have a card up on the Just Imagine Crafts Blog. Now that we’re home from a wonderful vacation spent in sunny, warm FL reality is setting in. We’re in OH and this time of year that means cold and snow. I made a card using the Kreaxions 4 in 1 punch # 918 (one of my favorites) to make the fancy edges on the white strip of cardstock. I used the negative punched pieces from the Kreaxions 4 in 1 punch # 312 to make the corner accents and the snowflakes. So … Let It Snow!

Altered Clothespins

It‘s Monday and there is a new challenge on the Kaboodle Doodles Challenge Blog. This week the challenge is: “Anything Goes“.

I love altering things and I’m always looking for new things to transform. I used to store my ribbon wrapped around clothespins. I have a lot of ribbon and that storage method was not working for me anymore. I sorted all my ribbon by color and put it in baggies. That left me with a lot of clothes pins. I decided to stamp on them and I love the way they turned out!

Pillow Box

I have a Design Team project up on the Just Imagine Crafts Blog today.

I love pillow boxes! They are such a quick and easy way to wrap a small gift or gift card … the possibilities are endless. I used the Kreaxions 4 in 1 punch #916 to create the border on my wrap around piece on the pillow box. I raided my stash for the embellishments and came up with a cute gift card holder for a friends birthday.

Table Runner & Gift Box

I have 2 projects to share today.
First I have a design team project up on the Just Imagine Crafts Blog.

I think I have found a new favorite crafting supply!

It’s a shame to get rid of old books. Why not be creative and use them for craft projects. You can find old books at library sales, rummage sales, auctions and used book stores.
I made this table runner by taping old book pages together and then punching the edges with the Kreaxions 4 in 1 punch # 905



 
 



Second I have a challenge up for the December Mini Crop at Turtle Soup.
I made a Christmas gift box.  My challenge to you is to create a gift box or bag.  Be sure to check out all the inspiring challenges by the other Design Team members.

Altered Book


It‘s Monday and there is a new challenge on the Kaboodle Doodles Challenge Blog. This week the challenge is: “Christmas Colors”.

I love altering things and books are my favorite!  I made this for my daughter.  I attached the photo to a piece of twine using clothespins.  This way she will be able the change the photo every year.

Gift Card Holder

If you’re giving a gift card as a present why not give it a “homemade feel” and make the card holder. I used the Kreaxions 4 in 1 punch #304 to create the fancy edge on the top of the little bag. I then folded it over and added some Christmas stickers from SRM. I finished the bag by adding a twine bow. These will be perfect for the Starbucks gift cards.

Count Down Till Christmas

It's Friday and I have a project up on the Just Imagine Crafts Blog.
A paper chain is a great way to help children count down the days until a special occasion or a holiday. And who says the paper chain has to be plain!? I made this paper chain for my grandchildren to count down the days till Christmas. I cut 25 paper strips from cardstock measuring 2” X 12”. I punched both side of the strips with the Kreaxions 4 in 1 punch #910, giving the strips an elegant look.  I alternated the red and green strips and linked the strips together by stapling them.
