Another Candle!

Looking through my post list, I've found a few drafts that I've never finished.  Here is the first one.  I love making these candles and am getting ready to make more for Christmas gifts.  I LOVE the colors in this one!  

I made it for a friend's birthday and here is the gift bag I made to go with it.

The "Celebrate" is a sticker that just matched this paper really well.  Very simple, but super fun!

Thanks for checking in with me!

Halloween Treat Bags

This week at My Sheri Crafts, Raquel has challenged us to make Treat Bags or Boxes!  What a fun challenge!  I found this fun cut file from the Creepy Critters Cricut cartridge:

Isn't he a cutie?  There is also a p, a cat, a bat and a spider.  I won't be making the spider, but hopefully there will be more pictures coming of the others.  I need 4 treat bags, so these are perfect!  

Come on over and join us! 

Strawberry Gift Bag - Tuesday Throwdown #164

Hello my friends!  Thank you for coming by today!  It's Team a's turn for this week's challenge at Tuesday Throwdown and our theme is.......Anything Goes!  We are sponsored this week by My Heart Pieces and I used their "Baby Bees" image to make a little gift bag.

I colored the image with my Spectrum Noir markers and cut it out with a Spellbinder's die, then inked the edges with red.  I added a little bit of red and yellow twine from The Twinery, then mounted the image onto a piece of green gingham cloth from an upholstery/drapery sample book that a friend gave me.  That is mounted onto a piece of red cardstock, then a sheet of red gingham paper.  Some red gems in the corners from my stash finish off the bag.

 

I decided a strawberry gift tag would be the perfect finishing touch.  The cut is from Savory (I think) and I used my Gypsy to weld and create the base.

 

Well, that's it!  Now head on over to Tuesday Throwdown and check out all the great inspiration there, then join us!  Have a great week!

Mother's Day Gift Bag

 Hello again!  Today I have a fun gift bag for my Mother's Day gift.

 

The bag itself was purchased at Hobby Lobby, the ribbon also.  The patterned papers are from The Paper Studio.  The digi stamp is from Designed2Delight Digital Stamps  and is the stamp of the week for their challenge this week.  The scalloped circles and "MOM" are cut from the Cindy Loo cartridge.  You can't tell from the pictures, but the orange circle is cut from glitter paper.  The buttons are from my "ages old" stash.   I used the "center point" cutting feature on my Expression for the first time!  That's a really great feature that I will be using again. 

I'll be entering this project in the following challenges:
