2017 desktop calendar & new flower sequins!

Hello!  Okay, I'm slowly using up these 2017 calendars!  I still have 3 more to use so hopefully I can get motivated and finish them.  I did finish one calendar using Mama Elephant's Lunar Animals stamp set.  Kind of similar to the ones I made last year except these are a bit larger because I used the tear off calendars instead of the color printed ones.

Here are all the animals from the set.  I just adhered all the calendar pages onto this yellow cardstock which has a bit of a shimmer to it.  Then I used my Cinch to punch all the holes at the top.

I made a cover with the year and used some green wire binding.

Here is a side view.

And this is how it looks standing up.  Love this cute bunny!

I also brought in 2 different flower sequins recently.  One is pink and the other a clear iridescent color.  These are different from the other flowers in my shop, not only in color but shape and size.  These new ones are more of an oval than round and just slightly larger.  They are very pretty!

Here is the pink.

And this one is the clear.  The quantities I have listed are low at the moment but I will be sorting and packing more packs soon.  Sometimes it's a slow process!  But thank you to everyone who has supported me and my little shop.  I appreciate it very much!

Thanks for stopping by!

Snowman gift card holder

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 through the hat and then use it as

coffee cup shaped cards

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 of the dies from MFT's gift card dies.

all occasion tags

Hello!  I have more tags to share today.  I kept these simple too to be used on most any occasion.  They have no sentiments on them. I used MFT's cute Birdie Brown Bitty Bears stamp set.  These were on my wish list for a while and I kept going back and forth about purchasing them especially because I wanted the dies to cut them out too and those were very expensive!  Geez, remember the old days when we used to fussy cut everything out by hand? This is the next 6 tags.  There's also a cute bear with a Santa hat that I didn't include in the photos.  This was a pretty quick project since I kept the bears white!  Not much coloring on these tags but they are still cute and colorful. I thought I was going to be doing more stamping but I've actually gone on to crochet more!  I've made 3 more crochet projects that I'll share soon.  Sometimes I do get the urge to color something but these days it's so much easier to pick up some yarn and my hook and crochet
