Go-to Sketch Reject

Happy Monday! :) I thought I'd post one of the cards I submitted for the Paper Crafts' Go-to Sketch call that didn't make the cut. I think it's SO funny, b/c one of the cards that DID make it in the magazine uses the same image! Kim Hughes' card is ADORABLE, so if you have the issue, go check it out. :) (Kim hand cut her band-aids & wrote her own sentiment & I used stamps drawn by Kim.)

Ink: Tsukineko (Memento Tuxedo Black); Clearsnap (Blackbird chalk ink)
Cardstock: Memory Box (Paprika, Eggshell); Papertrey Ink (Kraft)
Printed Paper: Graphic 45 (Playtimes Past, “Dollie’s Teaparty”)
Accessories: Copic (markers); Spellbinders (Scalloped Square Nestabilities die); sewing machine & thread, sandpaper

Christmas In the Old Country

Have you seen the latest Moxie Fab World challenge?!? I am a sucker when it comes to folk design. There's just something about it that makes me feel all warm and fuzzy inside. I found this AWESOME paper collection months ago by Kaiser Crafts (Mumma Bushka) and have been waiting for the perfect time to cut into it. One of the pages is full of large Matryoshka dolls and I wanted to use one of them for my focal point.

This project started out as a card... but then I spotted this cute packaging from Making Memories & I knew I had to utilize it. So... I dumped out the embellishments that it held and 'recycled' it to become a neat Christmas gift box.



I did a lot of work to my doll to make her look Christmas-y and festive. First, I cut some patterned paper to fit her belly... and then I used Copics to change the color of the rest of her outfit. I wanted to try my hand at the latest Embellish challenge too... so I added eyelets to her belly. Jillibean Soup makes some really cute felt flower embellishments... so I used one to create a poinsettia for her head wrap. All of my patterned paper is from Cosmo Cricket's Fa La La collection. The sentiment is from the Vintage Christmas Expressions set by CHF.

Thanks for checking out my 'Old Country' Christmas box! I hope you have a great Monday!!! :)

An Autumn Color Challenge

Have you seen the new Embellish magazine? It's a new online publication that's debuting this December and I can't wait to check it out! Right now, they have a fun color challenge going on... and it looked so pretty, I just had to try it out!


I LOVE this color combo! I thought it would be a perfect time to break in my newest Papertrey set - Autumn Abundance. I needed some Copic color therapy and it was just the trick! :) The polka dot BG is from Cornish Heritage Farms.

Have a great one!!! :)

Peacocks, Baby!

This is a card I made for the Moxie Fab World Challenge #3 (making a card that incorporates a peacock). Have you seen the new Moxie Fab blog? If not, please check it out HERE! Paper Craft's Cath Edvalson created this blog & it's FULL of trendy goodness! :)

So... I really didn't think I could come up with something 'peacock' & figured they weren't kidding when they said that it was a 'challenge'! Yikes! But... a few nights ago, I was at Hobby Lobby searching for Christmas decorations and passed this isle FULL of feathers! Light bulb! And could you believe they had several packages of peacock feathers to chose from? Who knew!?! I guess that's why Cath is in charge of this blog. She knows her stuff and is on top of the trends on the market! So... I got home and started looking through my stamps and came across a backgrounder that was screaming to be inked up! I think this Victorian Pattern Backgrounder is so pretty! I embossed it in deep brown EP and paired it with some jewel toned cardstock. Voila!

Now I'm just crossing my fingers that the Paper Crafts girls will think it's Moxielicious and pick me as one of their winners. ;) I love a challenge!

I've been saving this old pair of jeans in hopes of giving it new life one day. (My son wears out the knees of his pants so quickly & I hated to throw them away.)

Easter in December?

Yeah... I know. It's a little out of season. But - you have to understand how the paper crafting world works. They have a different time clock than the rest of us. :) Magazines work at least 6 months in advance. Stores want seasonal items EARLY. So... that means I get to play with new stamp sets early too! Honestly, the fresh Spring-like colors are a breath of fresh air to me! I love to mix it up a bit. And - I have a tendency to be a procrastinator, so this gives me a little head start! Otherwise, I remember to make an Easter card the Monday after. :)

I recently got some SUPER cute Easter stamps from CHF!!! Several of the images are singles that have been resized and grouped with new sentiments to create this new set called Hey Chickie. I just love the font used for these sentiments!!! (This set will be released this Tuesday, December 9th!)



One of my favorite *new-to-me* bloggers is Mel McCarthy. If you haven't visited her blog - you really need to! She has the most amazing ideas and FREE templates available for download. I used one of her traceable templates to cut out the cream panel that I stamped on above.

For the bottom of my card, I embossed on the backside of my note card & then sponged everything just a bit with Distress ink.

Great Templates & New Stamps!!!

As some of you know, I am a reporter for the online craft review blog Craft Critique. Today, I had the opportunity to review Lauren Meader's My Timeless Templates for Papertrey Ink!!! (CLICK HERE to read the article.)

Tomorrow (Thursday) is a BIG release day for Cornish Heritage Farms! Kim Hughes has 3 new stamp sets that I LOVE!!! One of the sets is called Playful Alphabet & has quickly become one of my favorite staples in my stamp collection. Kim's fonts are just so CUTE & these alphas make it easy to create any sentiment for cards, scrapbook pages, and paper crafted projects.

Here are a couple of projects I made using My Timeless Templates and some of my new stamps: :)
My mom is always asking for homemade cards to send out to her friends. I used Lauren's All Boxed Up template to craft this card keeper & stamped the title using the new Playful Alphabet set. I used some of Kim's Silhouette Blooms images to give this patterned paper a little more subtle design.
The original pocket on the left side of this template was a bit too narrow to hold my envelopes, so I made a little pocket of my own and now my envies slide right in! :) I love these templates because they are so versatile!
Another project I made uses the Recipe Wrap-Up template and more CHF stamps. I stamped "coupons" in Versamark ink using the Playful Alphabet set and embossed with chocolate scented embossing powder. YUM!!! :) The giant paperclip holds my booklet together & slides off to open. It's also handy to have just to clip notes under.
Below is what the booklet looks like when partially opened. The group of eggs is a stamp from another new release of Kim's tomorrow - called Sweet Spring.
I added a little notepad to jot down my grocery list.
And here is what the Coupon Booklet looks like opened up. These pockets are part of Lauren's template and are perfect to organize my coupons! I just stamped directly onto the pockets using the Playful Alphabet images again. (I used a craft punch to make little notches in my pockets.)
I hope you've been inspired to try out some new stamps and fun templates! See you tomorrow for release day!!! :)

I've been super busy (we've already had 2 Thanksgiving feasts... with 2 more to go!) and I've been working a lot lately too. But...

Teacher Gift Set

My sister just finished her last semester of schooling & will soon be an Elementary teacher. She needed a gift set in a hurry to give to her host teacher where she's been student teaching. As a struggling college student, she needed something friendly on the budget, so we came up with this gift set. We covered a tin can to create a pencil holder, created a bookmark from a large paperclip, & made a bound desk calendar out of coasters!

I'm really excited about this desk calendar! For those of you who haven't heard, A Muse creates a 16 month calendar every fall that is a downloadable product after a minimum $4 donation. Proceeds from the sale of the calendar will be donated to The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society! It's a wonderful fund-raiser & the calendars are so handy! It also includes a Perpetual Calendar, which is great to keep up with birthdays, anniversaries, etc.! I have several 4" x 4" coasters in my craft stash & used them to make the front & back covers. But... if you don't have these coasters yet, just bring home a few disposable coasters from a restaurant! :) For $4, you can feel good about contributing to a great cause AND create gifts for all of your friends & coworkers this holiday season! I used my Bind-it-all to bind the calendar at the top, and the chipboard is heavy enough to allow it to free stand on a desk top. I left my pages blank on the inside, but you could easily stamp and decorate each month if you wanted.

This is the card that I made to coordinate with my Teacher Gift Set. It's SUPER simple, but the Lined Paper BG stamp (by Cornish Heritage Farms) doesn't need a lot of additional stamping to make it look good!

I found these large paperclips in the office supply area at Walmart! Just sandwich the clip between two scalloped squares and adhere! I added a blob of Glossy Accents around the paperclip just to really cement it in. Voila! Instant bookmark!
