I'm having a SALE on ETSY!

Hello! Maybe one of my New Year's resolutions should be to blog more regularly again. I should also add on exercising again, and following a budget better. I am trying not to spend so much on too much crafty things.

Anyway, I am having a 10-15% off sale on ETSY. Please check it out if you're interested (link on the sidebar). I've already adjusted the prices in the sale section. I even added some new calendars that I just finished up.

I used Mama Elephant's Lunar Animals and Taylored Expressions calendars to make these. On a side note, did you know that there was an error on the TE calendars???? They contacted me via email because the number of days on November and December was incorrect! Anyway, it is a good thing that it took me a while to finish these because I was able to use the correct months. But I'm wondering about all the people that didn't buy these directly from TE. How would they know?

Here's the cover. I had to add a bit of extra on the top of each calendar page for the holes.

The back opens up so it can sit on your desk. It's a really cute size. I have one too on my desk. I even made one for one of my kids. I made 6 total! I am giving one away to someone so I have 3 left for sale in my shop.

I used a pink colored binding wire on this but I can also make it with green.

Also newly added in my shop, but not on sale, are these cute elephant birthday cards! This elephant is so adorable, I always squeal when I see him. I made a couple of simple shaker cards.

Okay, I hope I can set up my Silhouette Cameo tomorrow. Yes, I got one! But it's still in the box.

Thanks so much for stopping by!

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...
