Altered Tin with matching Cards set

I got these 5 x 5.5" tins from Stampin' Up, also used Stampin' Up papers, stamps are from Scrappy Moms line and the images are from Best Friends and Imagine More Cards carts on my Imagine...

Gift Card Holder Cards

I love making these because you have the envelope to put a gift card into but you still have a "full" card to give so that you can write in it...

Pillow Box Gift Card Holders

Some more projects to sell at our Youth Group Auction...

Altered Gable Boxes for Gift Giving

I made these as a cute option for Gift Giving. My kids Youth Group Auction will be coming up in May so I am starting on projects that we will sell there. Pictures arent too great, end of the day :(

Sneek Peek at a birthday party that I am doing

I'm not quite done yet with this party but wanted to post what I have pictures of so far...

"Cars" Themed birthday party

I was asked to make some decorations for a 2 year old's birthday party. He loves Disney's Cars. I made a variety of decorations: invitations, cupcake wrappers, cake decorations, decorations to cover Mylar balloons, goody bag toppers and a banner with the birthday boy's name on it. This was fun to do! Lots of pictures...

Jolly Holidays Card

I made this card for my newphew. I love this Jolly Holidays cartridge, it is so darn cute!

Countdown to Christmas (Advent Calendar)

I saw an ad for the Bo Bunny line, it was a canvas bundle with Bo Bunny papers. They had some project ideas and I saw one like this - loved it, so had to make it. But, I didn't have the Bo Bunny line or the canvas bundle so I did my own. I had a 16 x 20 canvas that I painted. Used my cricut for the numbers and the Christmas cuts. Used my Xyron to laminate the number cards and voila - done! I really like it, was able to make it in 1 day and I'm gonna make a few more for gifts. Hope you like it...

Christmas Candy Gifts

These are made using Ragu Spaghetti jars - aren't they cute? I used my new "Lite Jolly Holidays" cartridge for all of the cuts then filled the jars with candy. Simple and cute!

Holiday Candy Baskets

I made these for some teens on my shopping list. I attached a gift card holder to the front of the basket.

Halloween Treats

Here are some cute Halloween treats that I made for daughters class. I love how they turned out :)

3D Coffin Candy Dish

OMG - this is such a fun project to do. This coffin is from Happy Hauntings (one of my favorite carts), I cut the coffin at 11.5", the gate at 3" and the tomb at 5". I used my IRock to add a little bling on the gate and the cross. My papers all have a shimmer to them so it looks real cool in person. I have been wanting to make this and saw Liz's over at Liz's Paper Loft and decided to give her version a shot. I am going to make 4-5 more of these and will mix them up some once I get rid of my sinus headache (hard to be real creative when hurting so). Thanks for stopping by...

Some More Halloween Decorations

Here are a few more decorations that I have made for my daughter. The 3D tree is from Happy Hauntings along with the ghosts and grass. This is so much fun to make! I also made a couple spider webs to hang from the ceiling and some bats and spiders to stick around.
