Have a happy, crafty day!

Thought I would do one last tag holder for Christmas.  This one is done with the Penguin from Create a Critter with a Peachy Keen face stamp.  I am entering this one in Cardz TV Challenge #98.  Enjoy!

Here are the supplies.

Cartridges used:  Tags, Bags, Boxes & More and Create a Critter

 

Here is the first tag holder I made last week.

Wow, it’s Christmas Eve already!  I hope all of you are ready for the big day tomorrow.  I just tucked my girls into bed and I still have presents to wrap.  I did manage to squeeze in another Christmas card today.  My Scrap Chick recently had this freebie Elf on a Shelf cut available.  I thought it was sooo cute and I knew of the perfect Peachy Keen face to go with it.  I also wanted to give quilling a try so I created the flower on the card using Cricut’s quilliing die in my Cuttlebug. I also used Spellbinders Die Nestabilities Squares Lacey.  I’m entering this card into Peachy Keen’s Sketch with a Twist Challenge.  The challenge was very simple.  We could create anything we want but we had to use a Peachy Keen stamp.

Merry Christmas !

My Tim Holtz distresser ink collection is growing so I thought it was time that I organized it. I like to use the finger dobbers with my distressers and I recently saw that there was a plastic tray organizer available on the market for them.  I couldn’t find the organizer at my M’s or J’s so I decided to find something close and make it work.  I found this plastic bead container at J’s for less than $5 and the dobbers fit in it!  Yay!  I purchase the dobbers from my J’s too (I need to get more..lol).  I cut a piece of cardstock to fit the lid and inked some samples on it so I know which dobber belongs to which distresser ink pad.  I also labeled all my ink pads with the name on one side and a sample on the other side.

 

Thanks for stopping by today.  Have a happy scrappy holiday!

How’s everyone doing tonight?  Hopefully you are all getting your Christmas shopping done.  Cannot believe it’s Christmas in just a few days.  My husband has a woodworking hobby and makes pens and pencils among other wood crafts.  He asked that I make a pencil holder for a few of his pens.  So, I decided that I would create one with the Peachy Keen Let’s Face It Friday Challenge in mind.  The challenge was to create a project using a Peachy Keen face stamp and fabric.  I used my Gypsy and the Tags, Bags, Boxes and more cartridge as well as my new 3 Birds on a Parade cartridge. For the finishing touches, I added the perfect Peachy Keen face.  For the fabric requirement, I created one of my silk flowers.  I love making these.   So addictive.  You can check out one of my previous videos on how to make these flowers.  It’s super simple.  Enjoy!

 

I was sooo happy to see the mailman today.  The Copic marker I won from Copic’s blog came today.  I was too excited to see what color they sent me.  And, it was a color I didn’t have — yay!!  Thanks Copic!  I just love, love, love your markers!

Here is my new Copic with my antique Santa.  This was my dad’s Santa ornament when he was young.  I put him on my tree every year.

Here is my Copic collection.  It’s not a large collection but I’m proud of it and I add to it as I can.

Hey everyone!  Hope you all had a wonderful day and are getting ready for the holidays.  Thought I’d share with you some of the items I’ve picked up lately on sale.

Most of these I won from eBay for $8 – $13.  The bottom two I bough from JoAnns on Black Friday (price matched Michaels ad).

I purchased these at M’s on Black Friday for 40% plus 30% off.  They were like $9 each after discounts.  My next adventure is to teach myself how to quill =)

My favorite stamps of all time — Peachy Keen — came.  I bought these on the Scrapbook Steals deal the other week.  So excited to use them.

Also picked up some Tim Holtz and Ranger products.  Love my Tim Holtz.  All were at least 1/2 off.

I really enjoy making stick pins.  On Black Friday M’s had an awesome deal.  Glass beads were 1/2 off and then another 30% off.  So, I stocked up.  Here is just a little of what I got.

Recollections embellishments were also on sale on Black Friday.  50% off plus another 30%.  These are pricey without a sale.  So, I stocked up =)

Have a happy scrappy day!
