One of the nicest things in the September-December Catalog is the Book Boxes treat boxes. These boxes come plain white and you can decorate them however you like. Here's mine decorated. You can also decorate the inside of the boxes too. The strap n the boxes come with a bit of adhesive on them but I wanted to be able to open and close my box. I added the snow globe on the front with pop dots. The strap then slides under the snow globe … [Read more...] about Book Boxes
Holiday
Snowy Wonder
Have you started working on your Holiday cards? It's still early December so there is plenty of time to make your own cards and drop them in the mail. I love using our pattern paper to achieve a quick result. I could have used our stamps and dies to make the snow globe, but I used a cut-out from our paper instead. It saved a lot of time and the card is just as nice as if I'd stamped it. The Snowy Scenes Suite is a full Suite of products … [Read more...] about Snowy Wonder

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
Making Your Own Background
One of the cards I shared Monday used the full-sized background die. It makes an amazing frame of pine boughs overlapping the interior of the frame. This is the die I'm referring to. Once you die cut the frame, you end up with a funny looking reverse image, or the inside piece from the frame. You can take that inside piece and use it to make a fabulous background. First, you'll want to center it over your card stock that you're going to … [Read more...] about Making Your Own Background
New Kits Collection-Christmas Ornaments
One of the brand new kits this month is the Christmas Ornaments kit. I am so excited for this kit. These ornaments are going to look amazing tied to the top of Holiday gifts. The ornaments are bigger than I thought they would be. The larger ones are almost 4" across. I just received a bunch of these kits last week. And after opening the box, you can bet I set one aside for myself. I haven't had a chance to make the ornaments yet, but I did … [Read more...] about New Kits Collection-Christmas Ornaments
