is it that time already?

A while back I posted a kleenex box made out of the kraft paper with a snowman image on it. I decided to change it up a bit and came up with this one. I really like the way the red pops! I used the cuttlebug "spots" folder for the embossing and the stamped images were old stamps that I just happened to have four of. The letters were cut out of the Wingo Zingo sizzix strip and were just perfect for this. I used copics to color the images on the stamps. I even beaded my own charm. I even impressed the hubby...ok, not really...

i use these all the time

I love making these notepads! They are a great way to use up all your left over scraps and they make nice quick gifts. Make some up for all those people in your life that make your world go round and round!

still playing...

I found this "idea" (and I use that word very loosely) at Hobby Lobby. They had a sheet of card ideas from T!m Holtz and I thought they were pretty cool. However on further inspection it looked to me like they would be very expensive cards with all his "bling" on them, so I made this one into a journal. I'm still working on number 2 (there were three in the set), but have about 10 projects in the works right now so...oh, well, one of these days...

playing with t!m...

I've been playing with T!m and having way too much fun! Used the urban tapestry stamp set on this notepad. I put clear rock candy distress stickles on the roses and put them on the corner (even though I actually did grunge roses for this project, they looked awkward and too big so I opted for these). The pink flowers were left overs from a magnet board I did last year. Gotta love crafty!
