Hello, Kraftie Friends!!!

Last Friday, I was able to squeeze in a last minute Christmas Card Workshop with some friends and their kids.
They had to be easy to make, so when I saw some gift tags at Hobby Lobby...I bought several designs, some stickers and embellishments!
I'll be posting some of the original designs later on...

...but I wanted to share this card I made today, using one of the gift tags:


Patterned paper is from my stash. I inked edges of the card and the panel in green.
I adhered the gift tag using foam tape for dimension. Then, I added a metallic sticker border and some enamel dots.
Easy peasy!!!

Challenges:
1. Cupcake Inspirations #460

2. Simon Says Wed: Christmas
3. Mix It Up #20: AGoes + No Stamping
4. Christmas Crafts All Year 'Round December: AGoes
5. Use Your Stuff #341: Christmas/Holidays
6. Word Art Wed #364-#365: AGoes

If you visit my Pinterest, you'll see a board named "For Kids". There's a pin on the board that inspired me to make these owls.
I made these with my boy N. He helped me draw the eyes and glue the pieces. =)

My owls are slightly different than the ones on the pin, though.
The top is supposed to be taped down but my tape didn't want to stay in place because of the paint...so I just cut the top off...
The eyes are 1 inch paper circles that I die cut using my Slice machine.

For the wings and beaks, I used the stamp set that came with the Workshop on the Go Chantilly Scrapbooking Kit from CTMH (Close to my Heart).

Hope you try these out with your kids!

I made a flower headband for my 4 month-old niece...
I used supplies from Hobby Lobby: rose petals (from the Wedding Department), stretchy ribbon (Sewing Department), black glitter felt and fabric glue (Crafts Department).

You can see how I made the flower center here. 
I just hand cut the felt circles instead of using a die-cut machine...

I am kind of cheating on this one...it's not something I made from scratch, but...still worth posting!


I was looking for a ready-made Christmas wreath for my mom, but I just couldn't find the right size. They were either huge or kind of ugly! =)
