Make it Monday #35

Here is my take on papertrey's make it monday make your own washi tape. I used background gingham stamp on my "tape" .  I had a little trouble with this challenge, because i kept getting my fingers all sticky from the tape and had a hard time getting the tape where i wanted it. off to work now, another busy day for me.

friday night crafting

TGIF!! finally it's here. My favorite way to unwind is to create cards. This is my latest for the "friday freinds with flair" over @ unity stamps, also entering this into the "simon says stamp" anything goes challenge.  This stamp called my name , i think a relaxing bubble bath will do the trick after a long week.  Have a great weekend everyone , Sam

Make it Monday #34 thick chip's

This is my Christmas card this year. I fell in love with the bell stamp/die set the moment the sneak peak was shown.  The beautiful red bow is made using Erin Lincoln's thick chip technique . i am really happy she shared that idea with all of us, because i love chipboard and love the idea of making my own chip pieces from my favorite dies. thanks Erin.

Jugs Fall 3-d challenge

This little goodie box used to house felt flowers. I chose to recycle a box i had not seen used yet.   I have filled it with candy corn and placed it within view of my messy sons, tempting them if they clean their room...... sadly this has yet to happen.  Guess i'll be eating those myself after all. Happy thursday everyone. Sam
