So Greatful.........

I love it when a plan comes together--esp when you did not have one!  Well I fell in love with this stamp set from CTMH called SO GREATFUL. It is a multi step stamp set that is perfect for the fall. I also found what I thought was the perfect paper to use from Imaginisce---guess what it was named---SO GREATFUL!  NO JOKE!  I think they are a perfect pairing!

I used a kraft card base and used the Imaginisce pumpkin paper for the large matte.

You all know I love that cord ribbon from Hobby Lobby and I also used one of the new Hobby Lobby embossing folders called leaves for the green matte.  I used foam squares to elevate the layers and add some 3D.

So this is how I did the pumpkin.  I first stamped the orange base, the brown stem which was a second gen stamp, and the green vine.  I then stamped the word overlay in versa mark ink and added dark brown embossing powder and heated it up until it became glossy! I stamped the leaf on a scrap and cut it out--mini foam squares were put on the back and then I placed the leaf to give it even more pop!

I simply love how this turened out--
Make it a great one

Super Quick throw back gift....

So today I have such a fun throw back gift.  Do you remember making your own mix tapes?  Trying to get the songs off the radio on your boom box and giving them to that special someone--well I was in Michael's and found these great rub-on and I had these CD covers from MUJI (check it out-- amazing store).

So I made a mix CD which was so much easier with itunes than the radio ever was and used these for the cover--

I really like how it came out and it was only like 2.25 with tax all included (not the music).  I hope that someone like it!
Make it a great one-

Pink By Design Halloween Blog Hop

Hello everyone, We have having a PINK BY DESIGN blog hop today showcasing Halloween projects.  Make sure to hit all the design team because there is some AWESOME projects to see. 


My project is pretty simple as my craft room is still in boxes (goal is to be up and running by Sunday!).  I really to get creative since I could not use my cricut because I have yet to find the cords to plug it in!  

I love me a good treat bag!  When I saw these I knew I had to use them.  I love the name plate so you can use them as place settings at a table, gifts for guests at a party, awards for guest and the best ofs, a fun treat in a lunch box, or a cute what to use all your friends nicknames!  Martha did these and you can get them at Michales in the cake section. 

The tag itself is made from a Halloween K&Company.  It is 4.5" wide and 6" long folded in half to 3".  I used two punches for the center feature.  EKSuccess did the scalloped circle (Black) and the circle(orange) is from Paper Shapers.  A few pop dots between the two layers and a bit of the hand dyed silk ribbon available at the PBD store--if you have not tried using this crinkle ribbon--run do not walk to the Pink By Design Store and purchase it!!!

Here is a close up of the stamps from the Ghostly Greetings Set.  I use two stamps (one sentiments, and one shape).
