I really like using these little frames to make small home decor pieces. I can use them by themselves or group it with some other small decor pieces or add it to my tiered tray. There are so many places I can use these. I love how the bunny is in such a hurry, the cards are flying out the back of his truck. I promise, this is the last Jolly Delivery project I'm posting... at least for this week. I have really enjoyed using this Suite, but it … [Read more...] about Once Last Delivery!

First Time Ever
Stampin Up is offering a crafty advent calendar for the very first time. This advent calendar is a 12 day countdown to the Holidays. Every day of this calendar contains brand new dies, paper, embellishments, and more items that you won’t find in any of our catalogs or in our online store. The craft supplies in the calendar are not Holiday themed so you can use them all year long. Do you have a crafty friend or relative? This would make a … [Read more...] about First Time Ever
All Your Days
I love creating Holiday home decor pieces. Every year, I get them out and place them around my home, remembering past times creating these goodies. Today's project is a shadowbox frame using that amazing reindeer die from the Reindeer Days Suite. The reindeer die has three different reindeers to cut out to achieve the full reindeer look. I've used this die for several projects and I haven't gotten tired of it yet. The reindeer is just … [Read more...] about All Your Days

It’s the Most Magical Time of the Year
Today I'm sharing a special project for you from a recent class. This is a standing frame with a shaker box on the front of it.

I've typed up directions with photos for the remaining kits so these are ready for you to complete at home. The kits are $20 … [Read more...] about It’s the Most Magical Time of the Year
Joy
On Monday I shared the Christmas Gifting Tag Kit. The kit makes nine tags. But what do you do with the leftovers if you don't use all nine tags? You could save them for next year. But why not go ahead and use them now to make a home decor piece? At OnStage a couple weeks ago, one of the ladies shared a lovely project using this small wreath with the trees and the lights. I asked her where she found the wreath and she was kind enough to tell … [Read more...] about Joy
Tis The Season
I know, I know. I have my Holidays all mixed up. Don't worry, I'm working on getting a better schedule going. But, I really wanted to share this project right away so you would have time to make it prior to the Holidays. I have only five kits left over for this class that I recently held. This kit came with two different background papers. This one shows the red background with the white dots. The remaining five kits have red background … [Read more...] about Tis The Season
Merry
I was at a local craft store not too long ago and came across these inexpensive wood frames in their discount bin. I thought they'd be great for crafting. I wanted to keep this simple so I left the frame the natural wood rather than painting it. I cut my pattern paper to fit the inside of the frame. I do find with inexpensive frames like this, you really want to cut to fit it as they tend not to be a standard measurement. The green pattern … [Read more...] about Merry
