Text Me Call Me

I made this card for a friend of mine. Just as a reminder that I am here only 10 numbers away.

Cell Phone - Beloved Keepsakes

Sentiment - Crafty Sprouts "Text Talk"

Gift Card Holder

This was such a super fast project and turned out oh so cute.

You can find the tutorial over on ScrapGuy's PaperCrafting Adventure.

I cut mine 4 1/4" wide instead of 4 1/2" so that I could get 2 cards out of 1 sheet of paper.

I also made some that are wider to fit lottery tickets but I haven't embellished them yet.

DCWV "The Christmas Combo" 4x6 matstack. This stack is from last year.

Crafty Sprouts "Have a Cool Yule" stamp set. I masked the stamp so it would be in 1 line instead of 2.

Secret Box

MERRY CHRISTMAS CRAFTY FRIENDS

I have been doing some file cleaning the past couple of days. When I come across a cool project from one of the many amazingly creative crafters out there I bookmark it in my favorites. One of the problems I have is never getting back to that bookmark so it was about time I did a little organizing. I printed out a lot of the projects and am going to use my Cinch to make a HUGE book of creative ideas.

Well one of the projects that really caught my eye was this Secret Box. It is the cutest little box that would be fabulous for some little treasures. You can find the tutorial HERE. I used the Tim Holtz "Mini Paper Rosettes" die and topped them off with a pearl from the Paper Studio.

Help name the Card Easel

Marlo has done it again!! She is creating an Easel for card makers.

She is having a contest to help her name this new product so head over HERE and help her out! If she uses your idea you can win a Card Easel. How awesome would that be!!!!!

This was taken from her blog post.....

Hey Girls! I could use your help!

I am launching a new product that will be available for pre-order in January. I need help naming this product. The product is another easel . . . but this easel is a single easel designed for card making, and, slightly smaller than Scrap'n Easel's 12"x12".

This new "Card Making" easel will have the grids screen printed right on the magnetic surface. No removable grids for this easel as they are not needed. Scrap'n Easel has removable grids for "display mode" but cards are their own display piece! The design on this easel is different than Scrap'n Easel too! I can't wait to get the final prototype so I can photograph it and show it to you!

So many card makers have asked for this product and I am delighted to be so close to offering it! Now I just need to decide what to call it!! If I end up using your suggestion I will send you a FREE Card Easel!!

Ok! I'm soooooo ready to hear your suggestions!

Thanks in advance,

Marlo

PKS Sketch Challenge 67

The PKS Sketch Challenge this time is an anything goes challenge using a PKS stamp and goodness knows I have some of those and love every single one of them. I am hoping to get some more from Santa this year but Santa is also going to Florida and might bring back some goodies that we don't have in little town Nebraska. Anyone have any ideas for what I should ask him/her to bring this year??

I made a couple of 3x3 note cards (no they are not lunchbox notes for the grand kids this time lol). I have been feeling a tad bit grumpy for a few days but these cards did put a little smile on my face.

Crazy Friends

Today is another DT Friday over at Crafty Sprouts. There is still time to enter the challenge for your chance to win some truly cute digis from Bugaboo stamps.

I made a 3x3 note card with the cutest and craziest little party animal. Her name is Ruby Christmas - ornaments. She was trying to sit on the couch but ran in to a little problem and ended up on the floor. :-)

The couch stamp and die are from Papertrey ink "On My Couch"

The label is from Papertrey ink "Fillable Frames #8"

The sentiment is from Crafty Sprouts "Besties For Life" stamp set

Now it's your turn to show us your creation. Head over to see what my DT sisters made and get some creative inspiration and then go have fun and enter the challenge.

LFIF - Fabric Scraps

I think this is my first Let's Face it Friday Challenge but boy oh boy was it fun. It combined my 2 loves... paper and fabric!!!  Anyone that knows me knows that I have plenty of both to last a lifetime.

So here is the project I made...

The elves are from the Pazzles Craft Room. It didn't allow for hiding the eyes so I masked the eyes on the Happy Lashes Assortment from Peachy Keen Stamps and used the mouths. They turned out so super cute!!

The sentiment is from Crafty Sprouts "Have a Cool Yule" stamp set. I used 2 different stamps from this set to make "helpers" plural. I stitched fabric strips behind the little cuties. The fabric actually has some things on it that any kids would love to get for Christmas. (kitties and puppies and toys)
