Hello Kitty Cupcake Giftcard holder

This is for all the Hello Kitty lovers!  I made this simple gift card holder with a Hello Kitty topping.  This card measures about 3-1/4" x 4".  I used the K&Company DP and used velco for the closure.  I also used some stickles on the cupcake top to give it a little bling!   Thank god it's Friday and thanks for stopping by to see my creations!  Have a Great Weekend!

GIFT CARD PURSE

Here is a couple gift card purse holders that I made.  I used a 6x6 Berry Sweet K&Company DP for the purse and my Labels nestabilities for the top.  I punched holes for the ribbon and tied a knot on the inside.  This was a very easy GC holder to make.  Thanks for stopping by and Have a Great Day!

Tissue boxes

This weekend I am having some friends over and my sister and I will be teaching them to make the 2010 calendars that I previously posted. I also made Halloween goodie bags for them and some tissue boxes and other items that will be prizes. It will probably be a long day and hopefully the weather will be good and not too humid.
For the pumpkin baskets I used 10 each 3" ovals that I cut with my Cricut Expression which made it a whole lot easier than doing it one at a time. The basket is about 2-1/2" tall and 3" wide.
I love the tissue box pattern that I got from Cute Stuff. It makes it look so decorative!

Thanks for stopping by and Have a Great Day!

Twins birthday cards!

I wanted to post these two cards that are so cute and creative! My sister Irene is so very creative.  She doesn't have a blog to show her creations so I thought I'd post it. I wanted to post this because it's very cute, very inspiring and I love the colors. She has twin boys and created these cards for their birthday. The pop up card has a butterfly on a wire flying around attached to the rocks. So very cute!!

Pumpkin Treat Bag

Today I decided to make another Halloween treat bag. The mood is coming back again to make something. This treat bag is made of 5 each of Petite Ovals Nesties glued on each side of the bag. I also drew and cut out a couple maple leaves and stems and colored them. The bag measures 2-1/2" tall x 3" wide x 1-1/2" d. Since I like Hello Kitty I thought I'd add it to the front of the treat bag to make it look cuter. I also made another with Swiss Pixies Brigitta. Thanks for stopping by today and stay tuned for the winner of the Hello Kitty ornaments!

HELLO KITTY HALLOWEEN ORNAMENT GIVEAWAY!!

First of all Thank you everyone for all your well wishes! I feel alot better today and may even try to go to work today!

If you love HELLO KITTY I am giving them away by this Friday! All you need to do is leave a comment and tell me what your favorite Halloween costume that you like. It may give me an idea of what to dress up as this year.

The winner will be picked by this Friday afternoon!


Here's a Halloween card that I created last night. I used my nestabilities on this and printed the DP. Isn't she a cutie witch...

I've been wanting to try and make a mummy treat box and I tried it last night too. I used the only brown ink that I had but really wanted something a little darker but used it anyway. I should have taken a picture of it sideways also but didn't think about it until now. It turned out cute anyway! Thank you for stopping by today and GOOD LUCK if you want to try and win the ornaments.

Halloween Treat Box & Hello Kitty Ornament

If you haven't already heard what happened to me this past weekend, I hurt my leg because of a toad that scared me. How can that be since I'm bigger than he is right. Well as I was walking over to the back house just before I reached the stairs this toad jumps out of the dark and I almost stepped on it. It scared that crap outta me and I tried to avoid it and took a double step and tried to get on the first stair but I missed it. I felt my calf snap and then I felt PAIN! I waited until the next morning to go to the doctor because I thought I could handle the pain. WRONG! First thing in the early morning I called my doctor and he said to go to the emergency just incase because he was worried it was bleeding and may have a blood clot. Thank goodness it wasn't bleeding!! They gave me pain meds and crutches to walk. The calf muscle has micro tears and feels like I'm having cramps in the calf all the time. Call me crazy but I may go back to work tomorrow. It's too hot at home. I don't know we'll see how it feels in the morning. My son said mom you should have just squashed it. I was afraid of it splattering! YUK!

Anyway since I am at home from work not being able to walk around much because of my leg, I thought I'd sit here at my craft table and create something. I finally got to make something today! Yay!! Anyway I've been seeing this treat box through other blogs and been wanting to try and make one too. It's not as bad as I thought it was going to be. I finally got this stamping bella stamp that took almost 1-1/2 months since I ordered it. I think it got lost in the mail somewhere in Canada. I don't know but I thought that I should use it before Halloween is over.
STAY TUNED FOR HELLO KITTY HALLOWEEN ORNAMENTS GIVEAWAY TOMORROW!!

Here's a Hello Kitty Halloween Ornament that I made today. I made a bunch of Hello Kitty heads earlier and realized that I put the bows all on the wrong side. I didn't want to get rid of it and thought maybe I can still use it. I decided to make a witch hat for it. It turned out cute.

Getting ORGANIZED!!

Okay this is not something creative but for the past months I've been saying I need to get organized and clean my craft room.  Well the first step was to organize my flowers and buttons so I could find what I need and get rid of the boxes it came in.  I finally bought containers for them and seperated everything.  Boy was that alot of work just to get organized.  I then separated all my scrap papers by solid and printed scraps in separate plastic drawers.  I really need to use the scraps more to get rid of them but it keeps getting larger and larger.  Hopefully I'll be done this weekend but who knows what might come up next.  Here is what I did all last night and today.   How do you organize your scrap papers & stamps?  I need to get ideas....My stamps is my next project.

RAKS to share

Are you having the same issue as me?  I haven't been able to create anything lately.  I think I've been on facebook too much and it's taking my time away from crafting.  I've also been in a slump and don't have the energy in creating anything lately either.  But I do have a couple of RAK's that I want to share.  I hope to soon get back into creating.

This 1st RAK is from Enjoli (Stamping Under the Sun)!  She is just so awesome in all her creations. I just loved all her notebooks that she was posting on her blog and not knowing that she was sending one to me.  Anyway she sent this to me as a "Thank You" for the crochet flowers that I sent to her.  The stamps are an assortment of "thinking of the Good Times"  Thanks again Enjoli for the happy mail!

This next RAK is from Michele (My Simple Crafts).  She won the set of Hello Kitty ornaments that I was offering.  She also has some awesome creations on her blog.  Go and check it out if you haven't been there yet!  Thanks again Michele.


Thanks for stopping by today!
