It's getting close to Valentine's Day! Can you believe it?! I decided to do a little paper crafting and came up with some simple hearts on a string. Made them from recycled "wordfind" books. I had fun making one heart stand out on each strand: one featured a pink heart with a "love" tag and a pink rhinestone; the other featured a small red heart with a red rhinestone.<br />
<br />
I love stuff like this for easy, quick, inexpensive decorating. Now I need to find a good pecan pie recipe to "wow" my husband...<br />

So I'm looking through Paper Creations Magazine, Winter 2013 addition and I come across a technique I haven't seen or tried. If you have the magazine, check out "Dazzling Duos" on page 56. There was a special tool you could buy to make these cards but I had another idea. Instead of using (buying!) the new tool, I was going to use what I had. <br />
<br />
This technique provides you with a way to string/weave ribbon through cards. I liked the idea and the way they used brads to accent the design. So I started experimenting and this is what I came up with:<br />
<br />

<br />
The ribbon is strung between the scallops and the brads. Such an easy and fun technique! And now I've got thank you cards to send to my family next week!</div>

<span style="color: #38761d;">I love the look of these "prize winning" medallions! Looks like something you would win for a Fair entry! I was inspired by my Stamps of Life round stamps and some new ink pads I ordered from the same company (birthday gift to myself!). </span><br />
<div style="color: #38761d;">
<br /></div>
<div style="color: #38761d;">
I stamped the image, cut a background circle in a larger size, inked the edges and presto... great start to a garland! I added paper, cut to look like ribbon, and a few green rhinestones too. Finally I made 2 tassels (w/ bling!) and strung everything on yellow/white bakers twine. I so love this!</div>
<div style="color: #38761d;">
<br /></div>
<div style="color: #38761d;">
I think it would be fun to put on a co-workers office door or the front of their desk! Even strung across a cubicle! I'm going to make one for a friend of mine (who has everything)! </div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #990000; text-align: left;">A new year has arrived, are you ready!? It's always hard to believe when one year ends and another begins. It's also an exciting time for me! I love the idea of a fresh start and the suspense of what the year might bring! </span><span style="color: #990000;"></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #990000;"></span><br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #990000;">I used to make New Year's resolutions but not anymore (I do think about getting back into an exercise routine... every new year...). I tend to make goals throughout the year and look forward to achieving them at regular intervals. This year I have big goals in mind (and on paper!) and my customers will reap the benefits. Lots of crafty goals and projects are in the works! I look forward to sharing them with you!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #990000;"></span><br /></div>
<span style="color: #990000;">Spread your wings and enjoy the new year and all of it's possibilities! Come back often and post comments if you like!</span><br />

I have used this Curly Q wire for years and I continue to find new uses. Most recently I used it on my Christmas cards and packages. You can make it any shape you want. Wrap it around a pencil, remove, and you've got a fun spiral shape! Love it! Can't wait to share it with others! Check it out in my "destash" section of my Etsy store if you're interested: <a href="https://www.etsy.com/listing/118224294/curly-q-decorative-wire-silver-or-gold-5" target="_blank">https://www.etsy.com/listing/118224294/curly-q-decorative-wire-silver-or-gold-5</a></div>

Ok, I have a new addiction... MINI HANGERS! They are small enough to fit in the palm of your hand!<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
I had an idea based off a Christmas ornament my sister made for me many years ago. Each year I hang it on my tree and think "why don't I make something similar since I LOVE this ornament so much?". So here I am, decades later, making hangers! Go figure!<br /><br />Since taking these pictures, I have advanced the hanger to include clips for hanging your favorite Christmas card, photo, a quote, anything!!! I will keep you posted!<div>

<span style="color: #38761d;">I was inspired by some Washi tape and decided to started making Christmas cards today. It's amazing how one element can get the creative juices flowing. The reindeer tape at the bottom and the colorful tape at the top are part of K & Company's Christmas line. LOVE them! I had a scrap of decorative cardstock that looked like a flag and I decide to run with it. That scrap inspired the main focal point on these cards! Love the bling and candycane twine too! Ok... I'm finally getting into the Christmas-craft spirit!</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #38761d;"></span> </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #38761d;">A version of the small, vertical card is available in my Etsy store in a 12-pack (perfect to add to a package or plate of goodies!). Also... I will be including samples of my cards with each purchase until I run out! Start shoppin' and it's yours!</span></div>

<span style="color: #6fa8dc;">It's time for snow to fly in my neck of the woods so I thought it was time to create something to represent the season! Here it is! This snowflake garland was fun to make and I especially love the tassels on each end! Each snowflake is double-sided so it can hang in a window and look great from either side. Each snowflake is blue or a patterned blue paper embellished with Crystal Glass, glitter, and bling. The tassels are adorned with silver sequins (wish I had a good picture of them, darn it!), and I was thrilled to see how it made them glimmer and pop! For sale in my Etsy store if you're interested - I'll include a gift card too (part of my fun Christmas card collection! Hope you'll check it out in my store.)</span></div>

<strong>One of my latest cards featured in my Etsy shop! I absolutely love the quote on this card, "Enjoy The Moments That Make You Smile"! I can think of so many! I love the ribbon (an addiction!) and how it wraps around the back of the card. Blank inside for your words.</strong></div>

<span style="color: #76a5af;">Mini albums are so much fun to make! This album is for sale in my Etsy shop but I plan on making one for myself too! I'm going to fill it with inspirational quotes, as they have been instrumental for me in 2012.</span><br />
<span style="color: #76a5af;"></span><br />
<span style="color: #76a5af;">This 5.5" x 3.5" mini album features graduated pages with a little bling on each. The front features 3-D effects including a glittered snowflake, 3 "buttons", and '12 with lots of rhinestones!</span><br />

What I realized is that it's a version of the old fashioned cow cans we had as kids! Turn them upside down and they moo! Dad's is a little bit more sophisticated (hence the comment on the inside of the card). <a href="http://www.bobwards.com/PRIMOS--The-Orginal-Can-Deer-Call-176">http://www.bobwards.com/PRIMOS--The-Orginal-Can-Deer-Call-176</a></span></div>

Making a card, with a theme, for a specific person has become one of my passions! This picture is of my Mom, who didn't want her picture taken. Well much to her dismay, I kept it and created this card. It was so much fun creating the bubble, "I can't face another birthday!". Also, she loves birds so I made sure I included a few (thanks to my Cricut!). A "Happy Birthday" stamp ("Stamps of Life") was the perfect finishing touch. So glad I could bend the stamp to make it compliment the arch of the branch! Fun! Happy birthday Mom!</div>

I wanted to come up with a couple of gifts for my best friend's daughters. They are young and I just wanted something fun and small. This is what I came up with -- milk cartons and pinwheels! Such a fun project that didn't take a lot of time. I coordinated the paper from the carton with the paper for the pinwheels. Turned out so cute! Filled them w/ <a href="http://www.pepperidgefarm.com/ProductLanding.aspx?catID=722" target="_blank">Goldfish crackers</a> and they're ready for delivery!</div>Genellehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09656215870819305662noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-43955765123196878.post-4303547551257498902012-03-18T15:09:00.000-06:002012-03-18T15:09:05.033-06:00Mardi Gras Flower Cards Now Available in My Etsy Shop<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi2fcgPAMfj28gQBAqS-wqJDoTHUeyyryQ8bRP4PubQuEoeBeFKcFHxrDTiREpnTDUGywpMuzMeUSeq62t8YBaSorWn9HzX4crDZfv4im4iDVBd5DcNVeH59G3Pzb4zQrtN5fe6lEOsrg/s1600/IMG_4562.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi2fcgPAMfj28gQBAqS-wqJDoTHUeyyryQ8bRP4PubQuEoeBeFKcFHxrDTiREpnTDUGywpMuzMeUSeq62t8YBaSorWn9HzX4crDZfv4im4iDVBd5DcNVeH59G3Pzb4zQrtN5fe6lEOsrg/s320/IMG_4562.JPG" width="320" /></a></div><br />

<span style="color: #38761d;">I love winter but I think I've got Spring fever! I saw these photos from last season and felt the urge to create cards for my Etsy shop.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: #38761d;">My garden provided this beautiful floral photo (Helenium - Mardi Gras)! When you see nature at its finest, you have to preserve it! That's exactly what I did with these 3.75" x 2.75" photo cards. I left them blank on the inside for a personalized message.</span> <br />

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="color: #666666;">Each year I enjoy making and sending Christmas cards. It's unfortunate, & due to the advances in technology, that more and more people don't send actual cards. A holiday hello is most likely found in an e-mail or on Facebook. Well, I like to actually receive a card in the mail and hold it in my hands! I like to display it for all of my visitors to see!</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="color: #666666;">This year I planned early by buying card-making supplies in Oct. or early November. I work in retail and after decorating 4 or 5 trees for the store, I kind of got burnt out early on the festivities! So there I sat at the beginning, then the middle, then the end of Dec. working on Christmas cards. I didn't make many but I was able to send them out to family and a few friends (sorry if you didn't receive a card this year!). Maybe next year will be different!</span></div><br />
