Hybrid Shrink Plastic and YOU!

October 14, 2009 | Filed under: Articles

There are so many amazing digital kits with wonderful 3-D looking elements. Expertly placed shadows, stitching and distressing are as gorgeous digitally as they are in real life. But what if you just want a tiny bit more? What if you need to cut, punch and glue something yourself today? Using shrink film products you can turn that digital button into the real deal! Come, join me!

Paper Tussy Mussy

August 21, 2009 | Filed under: Articles

A tussy mussy hails from the Victorian era and is a cone-shaped holder, typically made of metal, to hold a nosegay size gathering of flowers. They are a precious piece of tradition and quite a lovely one at that. Tussy mussies can appear as a wall sconce, a wedding decoration or, in this case, a gift topper. Today, we are going to turn a childrens party hat template into a elegant paper tussy mussy fit for a bride to be!

It’s School Time! {Altered clipboards}

July 17, 2009 | Filed under: Articles

School is back in session for some of us, and for the rest of you, will be here before you know it. And then it’s “when is PE day?”, “when is your homework due?” or the dreaded one….”hey mom, I can’t find my homework!!!”. Eeek! That one sends a shiver down my spine! What is a crafty mom to do? Well, she’ll make something cute and noticeable with her crafty stuff so her school aged kids will be motivated to be and stay organized all year long. What’s that I hear? OH! It’s the bell for homeroom….better run along with me and find out what you need to be organized and *cool for school*!

You’re WILD, baby! baby card and gift box

Baby Keepsake Ornament

June 15, 2009 | Filed under: Articles

It’s a celebration all about BABY! Like many of you, I love to make a handmade card for a special celebration. A new baby is something special alright! :) Now I know not every handmade card I have delivered will be saved forever, and I am *pretty* OK with that….mostly! But what if we upped the save factor on your card a notch or two? If that sounds good to you, come along with me while we create a Keepsake Baby Ornament that can be used as a gift tag and later saved for baby’s scrapbook, as a wall hanging or maybe an addition to the annual Christmas tree? Follow me as we soar up, up and away…..
