CTMH- Artiste in August- Day 3

Welcome back to Day 3 of the Artiste in August Blog Hop!! You should be arriving from Amy's Blog. Your next stop will be PAMELA'S BLOG.

This weekend you will be seeing MY CHOICES from the Artiste Collection!

This was the Make-n-Take at my All Day Crop last Saturday!! Everyone who made one said it was adorable and easy to make :) They all fell in love with Artiste too!

I have created a super cute little card holder purse! This purse can be found on page 32 in the handbook (page 4 in the assembly book). I used the new Avonlea papers to cut the purse shape at 4.5". This card-holding purse is cool because you don't use any adhesive at all, just fold and done! There are little slits on the side that fold over eachother to keep the card holder in place! The card holder fits 3x3 cards. (You'll see those tomorrow). To keep the purse closed, I added a little velcro tab.

The brown bow is found on page 55 of the handbook (pg 32 in the assembly book). I cut the bow at 1.5". This bow was super easy to assemble- just line up the holes. Then I stuck a rhinestone brad through the holes- VOILA! Easy peasy!!! and SO CUTE!

This project was inspired by Fancy Melissa- she created one similar at Convention :)

~~ Holiday Blog Hop ~~

Welcome to the Paper Secrets Holiday Blog Hop. I made a couple of things to share with you today. I created this lovely paper tree by punching a LOT of 1 1/4" circles of Mistletoe Paper, then used pearl floral pins to secure them in rows to a styrofoam cone. As I neared the top, I had to use some adhesive so that they did not flare out, but sit in the cone shape. At the top, I stamped 3 stars and adhered them to the top of the cone. Supplies: Styrofoam cone Pearl Floral Pins CTMH Mistletoe level 2 paper CTMH Mistletoe Creative Basics paper D1320 Shining Star Stamps I created a second paper tree using instructions from Tracey Mason . I created an accordion flower with a stamped sentiment for my topper on this one. Supplies: Styrofoam Cone CTMH Mistletoe Level 2 papers K& Co paper D1380 Just for the Holidays Stamps I created a total of four paper trees to sit upon my mantel! The "subway art" was a free printable from eighteen25 ....

April Showers Blog Hop

Thanks for joining me for another weekend of Blog Hoppin Fun! If you have come here from Tina's Blog , you are on the right path! Keep on hoppin until the end :) April Showers is our theme, and I went with the "shower" theme and made baby cards for baby showers! I am addicted to making these stacked present cards lately! I first saw one that my friend Jayma made, who found it on Vicki's blog. Recently, I saw a couple cute ones on Haley's blog too. I cut my paper strips at 1.25 tall x 3, 2.25 and 1.5 long. Add a ribbon down the center, or just a bow on top and you're set! I used the Sweet Baby stamp set and Polka Dot Alphabet for my sentiments. Now I'm all set for the next baby shower..... (though I don't know any preggos right now). This design is also great for Birthday Cards too!!!! I made two each of these cards and stamped Birthday sentiments on them :) Supplies: BOY: Miracle Level 2 Sweet Baby...
