MERRY CHRISTMAS

this has been hanging in the store for a month and it has been a huge HIT!!!  It is super simple to make and would look great on a fireplace or across a door frame.  I simply cut chipboard to 2"x3.5" then covered with Christmas Pattern paper and some graphic images (BoBunny Christmas line from last year), I punched two eyelets at top of chipboard banner to string twine through.  Once chipboard is covered I added letters (K&Co product) and holly.  Holly was made with sizzix die and green cardstock, I also used distress stickles on holly to add glimmer.  The final touch is using alcohol ink on Tim Holtz light bulbs from ideaology line to color bulbs, string all together and TADA. 

advent calendar

Used Tim Holtz Printer Tray, Covered Chipboard and hinges,  Bo Bunny Paper and finally techniques like stickles, liquid applique, color wash, alcohol ink, and more....

 Create 25 openings with some surprises and some empty to add chocolates.

This advent calendar can be used this Christmas and Christmases to come.

faux clock

I am in love with this new project i created using printer paper, 7 gypsies metal accents, Scrap FX chipboard, and Tim Holtz curio knobs.  After the whole is together i mod podged so it can be dusted and the glue won't let go.  It is on a 12"x36" canvas and i cut out a portion to get more dimension. 

DON"T YOU LOVE IT WHEN A PROJECT IS EXACTLY LIKE YOU IMAGINED.

Scrapbook outside the box or rather make a box

This project was made using chipboard covered with Bo Bunny Et Cetera paper collection, Kaisercraft wood flourishes, 7 Gypsies metal corners, and Prima Marketing Flowers.

After I assembled the gazebo I painted with Mod Ponge to protect paper and make for easier dusting.

heritage box

here is a kit created using Bo Bunny Timepiece paper collection and scrapbooking odds and ends.  It is a $70+gst kit that comes complete with instructions and everything you need (except pictures that up to you) to make a enclosed scrapbook that is perfect for holding old family photos and writing down all the stories you want to pass on to then next generations, you can include family reciepts, family jokes, etc...  This would make the perfect gift for an anniversary, wedding or chirstimas.  The orders are stilling coming in for this kit and i am doing a second round of ordering so let me know if you interested.

stupid passwords

everything now a days has a password, it needs to - contain a least one capital and one digit now you are not suppose to use the same password twice and you are not suppose to write it down or use something that is related to you like a birthday, child's name phone number etc...  How the hell is anyone suppose to remember all those bloody passwords since you need one to log on to banking, shopping online, wholesale ordering etc...  Does this drive anyone else crazy!!!

Now that the rant is over on to the next rant WHERE IS MY NEW STOCK!!!  i want it here now i have dones of ideas and no material!!!!!  Of course i looked up the tracking and one box is on its way but the other is lost in the land of purolator.  Purolator doesn't seem to understand i have paid for the stock but can't get anything in return until it shows up at my door, and it would be great if showed up together rather than getting only part of it while the other box is in the world of lost parcels.  (just like the other sock)

WOW a blog is a great way to get stuff off your chest who knew?
