Chi Chi Memories Post #9

Hello! Are you cold out there? It's freezing here. Not like mainland freezing but pretty cold for Hawaii folks. Yesterday morning it was 64 degrees! That's cold for us. Still could wear shorts but had my jacket on and I even slept with my cozy socks. It's cold this morning too and I wore shorts to drop off my boys but then regretted it cause it was chilly.

Today is my post for Chi Chi Memories.

I colored up these two from the Winter Sports digi set. They are all matchy like a cute couple. I don't really know any couples that would actually wear matching clothes like this but thought it would be cute. The sentiment and snowflakes are from CC Designs. I added some sequins too! I finally got some Lawn Fawn sequins that I've been wanting.

I am actually typing while wearing gloves and I'm pretty proud of myself for not making too many typos. My hands always get super cold when it's cold outside.

Thanks so much for stopping by and have a great weekend!

Haha....I thought Hawaii was the only place in the world it was acceptable for couples to wear matching outfits. At least that's what they told me when the hubs and I went to a luau in Honolulu.

Cute couple, sweet sentiment!

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...
