Hello!  Hey, another post!  I was gonna wait to post this but I love this little stamp from The Greeting Farm.  Her name is Gracie and she's so adorable.  Love her hat and the flower and her cute face and braids and everything!  She is definitely my favorite from this month's release.

I used my rectangle dies to frame her.  Also used My Favorite Things dies for the rolled up rose and leaves that I cut from felt.  I realize I have too many dies.  Too many to keep track of.  I haven't used these flower dies in so long!  That should be part of my crafting resolution -- to use my dies and the rest of my supplies!  Oh, I forgot to mention that the sentiment is from Paper Smooches and it's heat embossed.  I really like heat embossing in white. 

Here's a little close up.  I paper pieced her hat using paper from Doodlebug.  I actually have ordered another one of these pads.  Even though they are Valentine's Day themed, they are so sweet for all kinds of cards.  I love the colors and the patterns.

I'll be entering this in TGF's latest Farm Fresh Friday -- Punch it to use a punch or die.

Thanks so much for reading!

Snowman gift card holder

By
Hi!  I was planning to post this last night but I was just too tired to write or think of complete sentences.  It's been a busy week with the boys on Fall break and still trying to finish up a bunch of crafts.  I have been trying to make some crocheted crafts to put in my Etsy shop and finally I'm done with one.  It's a crocheted snowman that can hold a gift card or anything actually that is small enough to fit in the pouch.  The pattern is designed by ChiWei Ranck of One Dog Woof and can be found HERE . Here's the little snowman with his arms folded over in the front to look like he is hugging the card.  I added this fun card that I stamped.  You can definitely add in a gift card too behind this card. The gift card reaches under his nose. This is how the little opening of the pouch looks.  I hope I can make more of these little guys.  These would be so cute for teachers and I think it would be easy to put a little wire throug...

coffee cup shaped cards

By
Hi!  I think after this post I may need a little nap!  My right shoulder is actually feeling worn out from all the typing and photo editing I've been doing lately.  And this cooler weather is making me drowsy.  It's getting cold here already! I made a bunch of these coffee shaped cards using a die from Honey Bee Stamps .  It's a cute coffee set but the die is extra long so it would probably help to have a longer platform to diecut.  I just have the standard sized one so I would pass it through once in my Big Shot and then rotate the cardstock and die carefully to cut the other end.  Manageable but the longer platform would be more convenient! I embossed the front of the card with some pretty snowflakes.  I think this is a Sizzix embossing folder.  And then stamped the coffee sleeve with some Lawn Fawn stamps. This is the inside.  The gift card slot does not come with this coffee cup die set.  I cut that opening with one ...
