TGF Heart Journaling--week 21

Hi! This will be a quick post because I still have to make something for my kids' classmates! Between the 3 kids there are so many Christmas programs and parties to go to. I think it will be a late night tonight!

Anyway, the theme for this week's TGF Heart Journaling (I can't believe we're on 21!) is to create a page on something or someone you love. So I made this page for my hubby.

I took Stamping Anya's head and bottom and Birthday Ian's hands and banner to create this fun and cute image. I drew in the heart on her shirt too to match the love theme. The background hearts are also from TGF and the letters are PTI's alphabet dies. I wrote the lyrics to our song from our wedding. We both love this song. We both like "old" music or I should say music from a different generation.

I have to say I love this page. I love the colors and the hearts and the song lyrics and the cute image. I might try to recreate this for a card. But maybe I have to make her hands look less manly. What do you think?

Thanks for reading!

Awww, you guys are so cute after all these years! Neat hand swap! I can't really tell the boy from girl hands, I thought they were the same, I never looked too closely before.

TGF 3rd Annual Customer Blog Hop

Hi! After finishing up these 2 projects for TGF's Blog Hop , I've come to realize that I am kind of addicted to stamps, especially TGF stamps. Hehe. Okay, I will not babble on too much since there are lots of other blogs to check out as well. I made something for both categories, Holiday and General. First up is my Holiday card. I recently acquired Hippie Anya! She inspired me to make a "peace" card for the holidays. But then I had to add Fleur Anya for "love" ... and 80s Anya for "joy." So great that these stamps could be turned into something Christmas-y. My General project has been swimming in my mind ever since I made that counting book a while back with TGF stamps as well. I thought I could make an ABC book too. But I didn't make this into a book. More like flashcards, I suppose. My youngest has a hard time recognizing lower case letters so I thought this would be fun for him. All stamps are TGF. I ...

I glued that tag onto kraft cardstock and used my ruler to cut a 1/8th inch border aro...

upcycling Pokemon wrappers

Hello everyone! I am back with my latest sewing creations. I have been playing around with plastic wrappers! I've seen those upcycled plastic wrap bags and purses (usually made from Capri Sun package juice) but never really paid attention to them or how they were made until I saw this tutorial using the wrappers from Pokemon cards. My boys love Pokemon cards and were just throwing the wrappers away but I started saving them and collected enough from their recent birthdays to make a couple of items. Here is a little coin pouch (didn't want to call it a purse since it's for my youngest boy and he'd probably not like that). This little pouch was made with 4 wrappers, 2 in front and 2 in back. It is a bit tough to turn right side out because the wrappers and contact paper get stiff. But it's possible and looks really neat! I made it so he could hang it from the inside of his backpack and also carry around a little bit of emergency...
