Quick Christmas Haul at Target

November 20, 2014 by Leave a Comment

Nov4_2014crafthaulLately, it seems like Target has been cutting way back on scrapbooking supplies.  A sad sign of the times unfortunately.  Which saddens me but I still walk the aisle and peek at the few things they do have. I found these cute stickers there. The animal stickers are dimensional and they have a kind of old-fashion feel to them. I can’t wait to use them on a project. A Tuesday Morning opened up here this year and I have found some great bargains there. I like to have some local resources.

Well have a blessed day friends!

Tag Tuesday #3: Let it Snow

November 18, 2014 by 2 Comments

nov18_2014aGood morning and Happy Tag Tuesday! It’s sunny here this morning but really cold.  So it’s a great time to be at my craft table. Today’s tag makes me think more of a bookmark but I guess you could use it for either purpose. I am in no way suggesting the white stuff start falling with the sentiment I chose. Just thought it went well with the image.

nov18_2014bI colored up one of my older Greeting Farm stamps. This was my first time creating a blonde combo for hair color. Then I cut her out and I used white cardstock to make a little snow mound that she could stand on and the sentiment is from a very old sticker sheet I bought with all sorts of holiday greetings.  I used Stickles on her ear muffs and fur trim. I used silver on her pompoms.

I hope you are all staying warm and squeeze in some time to create.

Have a blessed day!

November 2014 Cocoa Daisy Project Life kit

November 17, 2014 by 1 Comment

nov2014kit1My November Project Life kit from Cocoa Daisy arrived last week and I have been wanting to show you what I received this month.

nov2014kit2These stickers are great. I haven’t had Heidi Swapp stuff in a long time and I am glad to see she is still around.  Evalicous label stickers will come in handy and the tiny alpha stickers are perfect for when I’m running low on space.

nov2014kit3I found the colors for the November kit not the typical fall colors but I am up for the challenge to make them work. I love the 4×6 cards with the calender on it. I think I will use that in the first week of November in my PL album.

nov2014kit4I like the little messages on the 3×4 cards.

More wood veneer embellies in this kit. I like the ones with hearts in them.  I definitely am going to use the cork arrows. The stamps are clear and once I stamp them I can show them to you. One is a pair of sneakers. I could use them when talking about shoe tying with the boys.

nov2014kit5There are even more 3×4 cards.  These are really vibrant and I can’t wait to use them.

nov2014kit7This is the rest of the cards. I like the messages on them and can’t wait to work them into my album.

Well I am off to go work on some cards.

Have a blessed Monday my friends!

Silhouette Sunday #14: Planner Stickers

November 16, 2014 by 2 Comments

plannerstickers1Sorry I am so late to post, I have been watching football and getting distracted.

For the last month I have been on a new fitness plan to get myself in better shape.  I usually write down in my planner when I exercise.  But recently, I decided to take it a step further to document my routine in a more inspirational way. So I thought if I made stickers with my Silhouette, I could use them to keep track of my fitness routine as well as my meditation practice.

So I looked on the Silhouette store for fitness or workout files. Once I found the ones that I wanted, I filled them with the color that coordinates with my planner and set up the page to Print and Cut. I re-sized them to fit in my planner and let the magic happen.

plannerstickers3I couldn’t find one for walking so I just made one with the word ‘walk’. The first sheet I let the Silhouette cut the images out. It did an amazing job and I quickly stuck them in my planner. But then I got to thinking and decided to fill the page with more and cut them out myself in order to maximize how many stickers I could fit on the page. (Always trying to save a dollar!) Even if I increased the margins I still wouldn’t be able to cut as many as I would like.  I am fine with cutting them out when I need them. I even found one to use for my meditation and yoga practice.

Let me know what you used your sticker paper to make and if you haven’t used it yet, take the leap. It’s worth it.

Happy Crafting!
