Pick your poison

Cute little hand sanitizer holders, I used the 3 pack of hand sanitizers that you can buy for a dollar at dollorama or most great Canadian dollar stores, I don't have a bath and beauty store or whatever it is called that the person in the tutorial used in my city, on the positive, just use the largest oval punch, you don't have to do the fanagleing like the tutorial-no disrespect intended. I think I might wrap some matching Halloween DSP around the hand sanitizer bottle.

Colours used are old olive, basic black, pumpkin pie, the DSP is SU ????it's from last year and the year before

Tutorial can be found here

Spooky witch

Just a quick, simple Halloween card that I made. nothing to write home about.

it's a joy fold card, which you can find the tutorial for here

The card bases are basic black and pumpkin pie, the orange polka dotted DSP is from Micheals, the orange and black DSP is from SU's last year Halloween paper. I matted with old olive. I found this stamp set "all hallows eve" which I am in love with, the witch comes from that set. Topped it off with a paper clip and some black ribbon.

Tri Shutter cards

Guess what new tutorial I just tried? the "Tri Shutter". I can't find the actual tutorial that I used but here is one on SplitcoastStampers. If I do find the one I used I will change the link.

All supplies used are SU unless noted (or I forget)

The cherry card's base is Certainly celery, the DSP is Rock a billy, I stamped the cherries from Tart n Tangy with heat and stick powder and then used MS glitter, matted on real red.

Motorcycle card base is only orange, DSP is New Jersey Shore, inside mats are garden green and not quite navy. I stamped the motorcycles in garden green and not quite navy, used the colour spritzer with the same colours.

Card box

I don't normally post 2 in a day but I lost the instructions for this card holder and just came across them so I am going to post so I can give you the link . This is a perfect little gift to give someone filled with cards. That is where this one is going. It is filled with Halloween cards.

The box was made with old olive card stock, the DSP is last year's Cast a spell by SU. I used the scallop trim border with basic black card stock. The bat is from SU's Batty for you. The tutorial can be found here

Halloween Easel Card

Yes, more Halloween. I am sure I will get sick of is soon and will stop making Halloween for a bit. This is called an Easel card, I finally made one and am love with them.

All supplies used are SU unless noted.

The base of the card is old olive card stock, followed by a mat of elegant eggplant and then the DSP is from last year called Cast a spell.

I stamped the BOO from the Best Fiends stamp set in basic black on pumpkin pie, punched out with circle punch, then layered over Cast a spell, basic black, elegant eggplant. My sister was kind enough to give me some orange ribbon.

The tutorial for the Easel card can be found here

Another purse

Found a purse made out of a brown paper lunch bag...tres cool. The link for the tutorial can be found here.

I tried to follow the dimensions she gave but it wasn't working for me so I just eyeballed up my card stock against the lunch bag and cut.

All supplies SU unless noted.

Mat colours are pumpkin pie and melon mambo. I used Razzleberry DSP.

Ribbon is no name and the stamp I used was from circle circus.

Easter Bunny

What a sweetie eh? Another copy cat, I am sure you have figured it out that I don't have any original ideas. There really isn't a tutorial for this it is kind of self explanatory. The box is a 2-5-7-10 box (tutorial here ) which I made and cut down, punched the edges with the new SU punch,
and folded over. I made my small circles using the 2 different hole punches on the crop a dile
I am going to fill with grass and a few Easter treats.

Paper purse

Fab purse I came across, I emailed the lady who made it and she kindly emailed me the template.

The link to her site is here.

Valentine Card

Valenines day is just around the corner, I came across these ideas and thought they rocked. All supplies SU unless noted.

Base of card is pretty in pink, all the DSP is from the new SU mini is Sending Love. Other colours I used are real red, very vanilla, and chocolate chip.

I used both tag punches, and the 3 trio flower punch

The tutorial for the tag card can be found here , scroll down a bit)

The tutorial for the envelope can be found here

Desk box

I made these to put on a desk and fill with paper clips etc. Here is the link to the tutorial here

All supplies are SU unless noted

Card stock is old olive and not quite navy, DSP is Urban Garden, don't know where I got the chip board letters and then used aquamarine stickles.

Purse/box

Ladies, please, please, hold the applause. I haven't blogged in a bit as I needed to find just the right project. I have been invited to vendor at the Forestry Farm on November 15th for the Saskatoon Kinettes's craft fair, there will be other vendors, like purses, jewellry what not. Come check it out 11-3. I am making some of these little boxes to sell there, I hope they do well, here is the link for the tutorial here

I used SU Cottage Wall DSP

Album in a box

I discovered this album in a box quite awhile ago, I just couldn't find the link for the directions, I have made a few of these and they are awesome, I made a Harley Davidson one for a wedding gift, unfortunately I gave it away before I took pictures. Here is the link for instructions here.

Just click on album in a box. I used the paper Bali breeze.

Altered lunch tins

I'm baaaack (in creepy poltergeist voice). I had the week off for Easter break and spent it painting my daughters room. You won't see pics for awhile as I want to let the paint cure before I put up the decor elements.

Here are 2 of the tins I made for the golf tourney, all 4 are pretty much the same I just used the paper differently on all of them.

All supplies SU unless noted.

I bought the metal lunch tins from Micheal's, the paper is Darling Dots from SAB, certainly celery ribbon is from SAB as well, the blue ribbon is from WalMart, added some flowers and ribbon on the handle. These make great gifts when filled with cards and envelopes, I just made one for my niece for her birthday. A tutorial for the lunch tin can be found here.

Not for the faint of heart (LOL)

I have been back to work since Monday, so I haven't really created or blogged or much of anything. The blog always seems to be the first thing I slack on. I am the type of person to jump from thing to thing, again why I love paper crafting. As my sister says I find something and just run with it. So you can see what I have been running with lately. I have no supply list or anything, as usual. I just thought I would offer up some eye candy, I have seen these types of cards all over, I'm certainly not the person who thought it up. Here is the link for the templateStampowl

Baby Onesie card

Kind of a crappy picture eh? It's the pink, the pink, it's too light. It's Pink Pirouette, one of SU's new "in" colours, I am not a big fan of it that's way I choose to work with it for this card because I don't really care for it, it's too light.

Isn't this card awesome? I have seen alot of them but never knew how to do it. I stumbled, as always across the tutorial in one of my blog search sessions. The template for it can be found here. I tweaked it a bit myself. I just love, love, love them, the baby onesies I mean.

All supplies SU except for buttons.

Pink Pirouette for the onesie, whisper white for the scallops and 2 white buttons.
