Need a New Handbag?

Ciao Bella,

      While I am at craft fairs I do demonstrations of different Products or Projects…This last weekend was no different…One of the Projects I demonstrated was gift card holders.. I really like these gift card holders because they can be used for Christmas but also anytime of the year…And they look like Hand bags…. I'm such a girly girl … I love my hand bags .. I can't have too many …so what better gift card holder than a hand bag … at least in my book….. 

Now I will say… the projects I demonstrate at craft fair type events don't usually have an over amount of Bling, on them …Glitter and such are a little hard and messy to demonstrate outside in the elements…..and I want to Demonstrate projects that YOU can be inspired by and CREATE…

Here are some close ups on the individual Hand Bags

This one is a Tote Bag That I used Newsprint Designer Series Paper,  I also used the new Extra Large tag Punch From the Holiday Mini and the Stamp is From the Stamp Set Tags till Christmas…Now the tag is just tied on to the handle so that could be removed and the gift card holder could be saved and reused to a different occasion …

This little baby is a clutch bag, I used the same Newsprint Designer Series paper but I also ran Cherry Cobbler Card Stock through my Big Shot using the Top Note Die to make the top of the bag and some Antique Lace Trim for the Handle

Here is the same thing again, but by Moving the Antique Lace Trim to a top placement I now have a classic Handbag. I also used an Antique Brad as a focal point … I also love the music on this bag running up and down rather than the usual left to right …..

This is such an easy project .. If you missed my demonstration this last weekend and would like to learn to make these … Just Email Me …I will set up a class and by the end of this 1 hour Class, you will have made 4 or 5 of these …how easy is that …

Contact me now to set up your private class or a class for you and your friends….

A Scrappers Ornament

Ciao Bella,

               I hope you all had a safe Halloween, I know I had a fun time meeting some of my neighbors …I had some of my Halloween Craft Fair Items left over an thought what a great way to meet my neighbors…I handed out regular Candy to the kids… but the moms would stay at the curb… so I started yelling …"I have Mom treats"…you would be surprised how many RAN up to me saying … Mom treats… I have never got those before…It has confirmed to me that it doesn't matter how old you are …Trick or Treat-ing is fun …

So With Halloween officially over …And Today being All Saints Day…not a big holiday in the US but in Europe …it officially marks the Start of the Christmas Season …you try shopping today in Europe today … it will rival our Day after Thanksgiving…..lol… I thought I would share a Christmas Ornament that is a great Project for everyone…even the scrapbooker …..

This little Christmas ornament, is so cute and is perfect for those School Pictures that should be arriving anytime now… I used the Big Shot and the Big Square Scallop Die to make the base of METAL  and the Crumb Cake Card stock …Yes the Big Shot can cut metal …I used Metal Flashing from my local home improvement store…I also used my crop-a-dile to punch a hole in the top to tie my linen tread , for the hanger…

after that I just layered and decorated with the  Boughs and Bells stamp set added a couple of brad and mini library clips…and I did use Sticky Strip to adhere the card stock to the metal… I didn't worry about it the metal showed or not … a little peeking of it is good, so it can catch the light of your Christmas tree…..I left mine simple, but I think I will make a few more with the new glass glitter  or maybe some gold waffle paper… who knows…..

If you would like to make one of the these or just need the supplies  email me  and I will be more than happy to assist you …

Gift For the Holidays

Ciao Bella,

        I know I said last week was my last week at the Hinesville Farmer's Market, and it was suppose to be…. However I was invited back to the Official Final Market today…and Good News… they are continuing the Farmer's Market through November!!!!! Thank You Hinesville for supporting me and our other local businesses…..

Ok on to today's Project Featuring the Jolly Bingo Stamp Set…..

This is a super fast project…Just incase you didn't notice … I don't do anything that isn't fast,easy and fun …and to let you in on another secret about me …I get bored easily…so for me to anything for a craft fair or in large quantities …very difficult….but these Babies right here … Super fast…easy…fun …and I seem to be able to just keep making them and making them ….which means…YOU can make these too!  

The Real Red one , I used the Jolly Bingo Stamp Set for the images on the tealights and the ornament stamp from the Perfect Tags Stamp set.  And though it is really hard to see there is a rhinestone jewel in the middle of the tag…just for a little bling…..

For this set I used Marina Mist as my base color with the Jolly Bingo Bits stamp Set… and the Snowman Tag from the Perfect Punches Stamp set…and then layered the tag on a scalloped punched piece of Marina Mist Card Stock , wrapped with a very generous piece of ribbon …..

I bet you are wondering why I always use such a generous amount of ribbon on my finished projects… I love ribbon and I like the receiver of the gifts to have enough ribbon to reuse it on their projects…so it's like an extra gift……and I always love presents …..

Just to let you know ….Today is the Last Day to sign up for my Getting Ready for the Holidays Class ….and I only have a spots left…so sign up Now to be sure you get your seat in the class…just email me now to reserve your seat…

here are the details …

Vintage Joy….

Ciao Bella,

          More cards from the Oktober Fest are on the agenda today..

Sorry about the bad lighting, the sun was not cooperating with me …lol…I also included the box set picture of the Dasher card from yesterday…

I just love the "joy" cards… I just might make more and use them for my own Christmas cards…I do have to admit, these cards were inspired by a card that my stampin' sister Tiffany B. created…

The Card Base is Crumb Cake, and I used Deck The Halls Designer Series Paper. For the Image I used the stamp set Welcome Christmas. The ribbon is the Always Artichoke Seam Binding ribbon from the Holiday Mini Catalog and if you look real close there are two pearls on either side of the letter "O"… Who new that you could get clean and simple and vintage in the same card…

Here is the card again only this time, I used a different piece of Deck The Hall Designer Series Paper and used crochet trim instead of the seam binding…

I bet you are wondering how I got the two images, the joy and the wreath to lay together without over lapping…well that is called masking… If you are interested in learning how to do this.. These cards will be on the Buffet, Saturday Nov 6th…

What Buffet you are wondering? ….a Christmas Card Buffet…

Something Wicked this Way Comes

Ciao Bella,

          I am so excited this morning… I was working on party favors for my "quick I need a favor Class" and I was looking for something a little different. Well thanks to my sister demo, Kimberly Van D., who inspired these grown up party favors…take a look

Aren't they so way cool…and way grown up …and they are meant to hang on one of those spooky decorative trees…but alas I don't have one of those…so I used what I had … here they are hanging …

OMWord, I just couldn't stop adding things to them I think I used just about every embellishment in the Holiday Mini Catalog….

This one is the simplest of them all …I used the Newsprint Designer Series Paper(117166) pg. 175 in the IB&C, for all the Treat Cones. The stamp set is Wicked Cool (120600)pg. 23 in the IB&C, the Bitty Bat punch (119279) on pg 201 in the IB&C. and I'm not sure if you can see it too well but I used Smooch Spritz in Log Cabin((119921) and Vanilla Shimmer (118772) , both are on pg. 195 in the IB&C…

This one has the new Waffle Paper, Champagne Glass Glitter, new Label Punch and the Raven Jewels…all from the Holiday Mini Catalog…and I'd list the catty numbers for you but my mini catty is in the car and it is raining Bats and Broom Sticks right now…lol

This one has the Raven Lace Trim and Extra Large Buttons from the Holiday Mini Catalog, and there is another Black Jewel on there. This one might be my favorite on to make.

This last one I have to admit I did go over the top …More Black Raven Lace Trim, Black Jewels, Designer Jewels Basic Pearls, Paper Daisies, Mini Vintage Tag, Vintage Trinkets and I used the New Clear Scalloped Rectangle Sizzlet from the Mini Catalog….

Are these not the most grown up Halloween Fun…you have ever seen…

As I said if you are signed up for my "quick I need a favor" class … you will get to make one of these …is that not the best …

Ok … also this week starts my 12 weeks of Christmas emails…my gift to you for being loyal customers and friends… If you are already receiving my monthly newsletter you are all set…If not , be sure to subscribe today so you don't miss a thing …there is a box up at the top of the page one the left hand side…just for my newsletter…

Just Believe Invitations…

Ciao Bella,

            It's another super busy day out for me… So I have just a quick share today…

I am really liking the Just Believe Stamp Set (120453 ) pg.109 in the IB&C, it is so versatile…and there is so much you can do with it …It is one of my favorite stamp sets to "travel with" … a lot of times I go out to stamp…I'm not talking workshops here … I get a little restless always stamping in my studio, so a couple of times a week I just go out to stamp… sometimes it the local coffee house or even just the park when the weather is nice…

Today I have some quick errands but I think I will stop at Uncommon Grounds( the local coffee house) it is so much better than any of those big chains…

anyway the inside is super simple …

I used MY Digital Studio …just to type and print the detail…

Well off I go …

Oh wait .. before I forget…. Don't forget to RSVP for the Mystery Hostess Workshop …If you can't make the workshop but still want a chance to be entered for the Free Stamp Set and Minimum $15 free Stampin Up Merchandise… All you have to do is EMAIL ME your order before the start of the Workshop Tuesday…

Have a great weekend everybody
