Happy Halloween! Today there are no tricks, just treats for you! I’m going to show you how you can create these cute (and easy) Tall Treat Pouches. While my sample today is Halloween themed, I can easily see this project duplicated for Christmas and filled with candy canes or other tall treats for the holiday. Grab your favorite patterned paper, your Paper Trimmer, some strong double-sided adhesive and a Bone Folder and let’s get started.
It’s the final few days to grab the Close To My Heart October Stamp of the Month, Autumn Air. This stamp set has a great variety of images–from outline and solid leaf images to sentiments and even a fun border image.
Things have been pretty busy here this week preparing for my Annual Holiday Extravaganza Class & All-day Crop. Add in the stress of wondering if our city & neighborhood would be one that would be impacted by PG&E’s Power Shutoff and it feels as though I’m scrambling to get things done (& hope they don’t become undone–like food purchased for Saturday’s event going bad if the power is shut off!)
Today the first holiday project tutorial of my 12 Weeks of Christmas was sent out to my mailing list subscribers. Not only did it showcase a fun watercolor technique, but it also had a fun fold to the design as well.
Have you seen Close To My Heart’s Shaker Window & Confetti Dies? As well as their Shaker Window Foam & Acetate Kits? When you combine the two together it makes it so super simple to create Shaker Cards!
I rely a lot on Close To My Heart’s How-to Books. I absolutely LOVE them! Here is a FREE pattern they shared on the CTMH Blog today.
I’m currently at Close To My Heart’s Annual Convention–we’re celebrating 35 years in the business this year!! I thought this card I received from my talented sister-in-law, Barb Baldwin, was the perfect card to share for this celebration.
With graduation season upon us, I thought it was timely to share a fun way to give someone money as a gift. It adds a personal touch to the gift and really isn’t hard to do either. And it works for birthdays, weddings and more!
Shaker cards are super fun to create and just as fun to receive. But have you ever considered making a Shaker Window Scrapbook Layout? It’s a neat idea, right?
Today’s project is one I created using the April Stamp of the Month, Love So Sweet. I love how it turned out. It’s so simple and clean in design. But it definitely would brighten the recipient’s day when you gave it to them, right?
Today’s project is a super cute one! And it’s pretty darn easy to make, too. This is one of the projects we made at my Technique Time Class last month and it’s perfect for creating a bunch up quickly.
Easter is right around the corner! Today I have a super cute and ridiculously easy Easter treat you can make for all your favorite people.
Have you ordered your Heart Happy Paper yet? I am in LOVE with all the designs in this paper pack! It’s actually sad that these papers are only going to be available through February (or while supplies last!)
It’s less than 2 weeks until Christmas and you haven’t started your Christmas cards yet. Not to fret! Here’s a super quick and easy card design that will have you ready to mail your cards in no time. All you need are 4 pieces: 8-1/2″ x 5-1/2″ (scored at 4-1/4″) card base 5-1/4″ x 4″ … Read more Last Minute Handmade Christmas Cards
Happy Thanksgiving! I hope whether you spend your day with friends or family (or both!) that your soul is filled with joy and gratitude. I made these fun treat holders for my kids as well as my niece and nephews. They are always fun to make. Plus, they work for any occasion and are quite … Read more Thanksgiving Treats
