"UnBoolievable" Blog Hop Day 2

Welcome back! I hope you really enjoyed yesterdays projects we all shared! I know I did....

If you are coming from Lisa's blog, then you are in the right spot!  

For my project today, I made 2 special little boys their annual Halloween treat bag. They will be shipped up to NY Monday morning, just in time for Halloween! 



I cut these cute treat bags using my Silhouette. The file was purchased from the SIL store and is Lori Whitlocks Favor Bags. I used some fun paper from a K&Company staying called Ghostly Greetings. I love their paper...especially for things like this since its much thicker! The ribbon on both bags came from Michaels =)


I used Jaded Blossoms Fancy Topper Die for the base. I then stamped on a bingo card using their Bingo set. . All the images are from their Halloween Bingo set. The other card is their Halloween Mash Up. Everything is inked on using Close To My Heart ink pads. 

Hope the boys love their goodies this year! 

Next, please visit Lori and see what she brewed up today! 

Lisa is giving away some awesome blog candy don't forget! You must be a follower of every blog on the hop and leave a comment for each project, both days!

"UnBoolievable" Blog Hop Day 1

Welcome to the "UnBoolievable" Blog Hop! You will find tons of projects from many crafty ladies! This is a 2 day hop so be sure to check back tomorrow too! If you are coming from Lisa, then that's perfect! She is starting off this hop for us! 

For my day 1 project, I created a 2 page 8x8 layout. I haven't created one in probably 3 years! It took me a while to decide which way I wanted to steer (either TONS on my pages, or simple)....I decided to go simple =) I joined a swap this month as well that I will be using this layout for (we have to send a Halloween theme layout to everyone involved). Hope they all like it! 


I used a really pretty purple paper from the paper company that I found in Tuesday Morning (I love that store!). I then put a 6x6 mat on top of that with paper by Reminisce from their "the haunting" line. I love those skulls! 


The skull scroll was purchased from the Silhouette store. I added gunmetal stickles to it. 


The "trick or treat" saying also came from the Silhouette store. I used a skull brad that I purchased a while ago from Michaels from their $1 bin! The photo mat was embossed with a cuttlebug embossing folder called "haunted damask". 


I added 2 fun tags from Jaded Blossom. It is their Treat Tag Die. I inked it with Close To My Heart "gyspy" ink. I added a small clothespin that I colored purple and then used purple stickles to make it sparkly. 

I hope you enjoyed my project today! Don't forget to check back on Sunday for day #2! 

Lisa is giving away a fabulous stamp set from Cardz TV Stamps. To be eligible, you have to follow every blog and comment both days on each project posted =) Lisa has all the details over on her blog! 

Next on the hop is the talented Lori! 

In case you get lost, or need to come back for any reason, you can find the entire lineup posted below! 
Thanks for stopping by =)

Action Wobble Wednesday!

Hi there! I am so excited to be the guest designer today for ACTION WOBBLES "Wobble Wednesday Challenge"! I made a fun card for my niece's 4th birthday this past weekend! 


I cut my froggy and the card base with files I bought from the Silhouette store. I couldn't really tell you what the paper is from because I made a challenge to myself-USE MY SCRAPS BEFORE NEW PAPER! So far, so good! The blue shimmer background is from recollections (Michaels brand) though! 


The inside of the card is stamped with a sentiment from Jaded Blossom's " Sweet Birthday Wishes" set.I also added a strip of My Minds Eye pink polka dot washi tape to the side! 


My little banner is from Jaded Blossoms Candy Charms & Banners die set. I inked the edges & stamped the sentiment with Close To My Heart's smokey plum ink. The sentiment came from JB's "Birthday Candies" set. I added 2 little brads from my stash to hold it together. I also used "waterfall" & "purple" stickles on the hat and the present. 


Weeeeeeeeeee!!!!!!! Look at him go! I used my action wobble for a fun dancin' froggy! 


Was a little difficult to get a shot of the under side but you can see the springs there! 


Aiden (my 6 year old) asked me to make his cousin a little box to hold a bracelet he made for her. She LOVES cupcakes so I thought this was only appropriate! I got this file from the silhouette store as well. Again, used up some paper from my scrap stash and added some lime green ric rac ribbon. The tag came from Jaded Blossom's "Treat Tag Die". The cute little girl and the sentiment also came from JB's "sweet birthday wishes" set. I added a fun jewel to her head band! 



Thanks for taking a look today and have fun craftin'!

For my project today, I created a card for one of Neal's employees. His wife just had their 3rd little bundle of joy and all the staff got together to get him a gift card. I saw a similar card on Pinterest and loved how it turned out! I had to create this from scratch and I think it came out pretty good! 

I used tons of rectangles to make my dresser and used pop dots to add a 3d look to my drawers. A few pearl "knobs" completed the dresser! 


I used Jaded Blossom's Flag Dies for my banner, and both sentiments came from "Babies & Weddings". I inked them using Close To My Hearts 'crystal blue' & 'chocolate' inks. 


Jaded Blossoms monthly challenge is to create something with a gift card theme. I decided to enter my card into the challenge!

Happy Grandparents Day!

Grandparents Day was one of my favorite "unofficial" holidays when I was little. We always brought my grandma & grandpa to school with us and it was the best! I love to send out cards to all of them still but this year caught up with me! I can't send my grandpa one on time but I was able to make "pop" one (thats Neal's dad....the boys grandpa!)


I used Jaded Blossom's Father's Day stamp set for the cute sentiment stamped with CTMH outdoor denim ink. The bottle of soda pop came from the SIL store and i put a little twine on there as well. 


I used Liquid Glass on the bottle along with some light orange and dark orange stickles. 


Thanks for stopping by!

I couldn't get a good picture of it moving though :( I stamped the front of the card with a Jaded Blossom sentiment from their Happy Summer set. 



I also used jaded blossom's flag dies for the inside banner and that sentiment also came from the Happy Summer Set.
