Hello, crafty friends!


Finally, add the hand-dyed crinkle ribbon (Walnut Inks - Imagine Crafts/Tsukineko) and the punched border (Martha Stewart/EK Success) to further embellish the box.

I have a video tutorial to show how I made it:

Hello, crafty friends!


My sons painted some pumpkins and we used the leftover paint on some paper from IKEA.


After it dried, I cut leaves from my Artiste Cricut cartridge (and hand-cut some others).
I braided 2 yards of yarn.
Then, I simply stapled the leaves on.

Hello, hello!

I used white cardstock and patterned papers.
I hand-wrote the names on strips of white cardstock and adhered them on the cards.
Then, I added the glittery foam stickers.

I found the lids at the dollar bins at Target and got 2 for my kids. The jars are from my mother-in-law. Since they are the same, I decided to identify them with tags...with my kids' initials. I know...B is not for Dog, and N is not for truck! =)

For the tags, I stamped and embossed a striped background in clear. 
Using gel sticks (aka Gelatos for kids) in 2 different colors, I blended them with baby wipe.
I added some more stamping.
I stamped B and N, cut them out and adhered them with foam tape.
The dog is from Boys Will Be Boys Cricut cartridge and was colored with Copics.
The truck is CTMH...I stamped it twice, once in black and then green. I cut out the green truck and adhered with foam tape on the black image.
Finally, I attached them to the jars with baker's twine.

If you're still with me...
I showed the tags to my kids and I said to B:
"I used a dog because you love dogs, right?"
To which he replied:
"No, I don't love dogs anymore...I love planets!"

Planets it is...maybe next time!!!

I made some projects for 4th of July...


Believe it or not, I didn't really have 4th of July-ish patterned papers in my paper stash (that I hoard...er, I mean..."collect"...), so I had to look for free printables!
Here's where I found the papers I used: Hallmark.
