9/28/11 Directions for pocket card










Take a piece of paper cut 11x4
Fold in half
Make a triangle fold (note in picture-you are not going corner to corner-you are leaving an edge)
Tape down triangle.
Put adhesive on just the sides of the card and fold up and adhere
Decorate as you wish
(this is also cute with the pocket going horizontally)

9/28/11 Tutorial for gift card holder









Cut paper in a 6x6 square
Fold on a diagonal to make a triangle
Take pointed ends and fold to the opposite side (see picture)
Glue tips and sides of the fold only (do not glue the top of the folds)
You can be done now or fold one layer from the top portion and tuck into the front (this is especially nice if you have double sided paper)
Decorate however you wish!

9/15/11 Baby shower keepsakes




I got this free download from "pinterest". I then made a pouch out of a 9x9 album protector. I simply cut off the 3-hole punched area, measured a 9x12 piece of cardstock, folded it over and attached it with sticky velcro.

I made a mask with a circle punch and sponged the "harvest moon".

9/13/11 H2H challenge for the week


This week's challenge is to use your favorite die cut. I cut this from the "Art Philosophy" cricut cartridge. I made it into a magnet and I tried to put some lavendar in it from my yard but it fell apart.
Gotta think of something to do with it....It's cute though!

9/12/11 Bottle cap magnets


The kids and I have been making these like crazy. Just punch a one inch circle of your favorite scrapbook paper or punch paer and stick a sticker on it. Then, cover it with a clear epoxy sticker.
The bike one I actually stamped with ink.

9/13/11 Mummy pumpkin


I forget where I saw this but I had to do it immediately! Just wrap gauze around a pumpkin and glue eyes on it!

9/11/11 Treat Bags



I learned this from my friend Suzie. This bag is covered up the back side in black paper and then folded over. I attached the flap with velcro.
I cut the paper 10x3 1/2 and scored where it needed to fold over.

A friend of mine taught me how to make this cute envelope. You can put gift cards, cash, candy bar or whatever in it. I can't explain how to make it but if you are really interested in learning how, leave me a comment and I will try to do a tutorial.
