Lots of New Ribbon....and a Card






Another CAS card with some white on white and
neutrals. 
The butterfly and sentiment are PTI
The script background is an Itty Bitty from Unity Stamp Co. 


 
Here is one of the new additions to the Etsy Shop.
This is a mini cording made from 100% polyester.
It is super soft and pretty.
I currently have 6 colors available.
Just a little different than the baker's twine I carry...
 

 
I also have this chevron striped ribbon available
in 8 colors.
This ribbon is so pretty and is wired so you can get that perfect
shape for your projects.




Below is a woven burlap ribbon in 2 neutral colors:
cream & natural (Kraft)

 
The last ribbon I have to share is the denim ribbon below...
love this ribbon for masculine/boy projects!

Cards to Journal On...



The other night, I took some of the cream colored library cards
that I have in my shop and embellished them to be used
as journaling cards.


I have lots and lots of 6x6 paper pads and this was a great
way to put some of the papers to use....

The cards above I even stamped on with some Unity and PTI 
stamps.


For these cards, I kept it simple and just added some pieces of 
paper from the Carta Bella - Traditions paper I have.
These are fun to make and there is so much room for telling your story.
They are perfect for Project Life, mini albums, or scrapbook pages.

I love the colors in this line of paper.
I also have been adding a few new things here and there to the
 
The tags below are now available.
I also have some new chevron striped ribbon coming soon - as well
as a couple other ribbons and twines.
 
I'm excited about some adhesive cotton tape I have on its way
that you will be able to stamp on!
 

 
I have recycled Kraft tags in the shop now.
They are available in 2 sizes.
 
A large size - 4 3/4" x 2 3/8".  
An extra large size - 6 1/4" x 3 1/8"


 
These tags are fun for cardmaking, scrapbooking, mini albums, or even
your Project Life books. 
The possibilities are endless!

They come in 2 sizes as well.

A Couple of RetroSketches Cards...

 
Had some time this week to participate in the
challenge over at the RetroSketches blog.

 
I made two cards with the same elements, and adjusted
my layout just a little on each.
 
The sentiments are from Paper Smooches and the paper is
Carta Bella - Traditions

More Simple Holiday projects...

 
Glittered up some Studio Calico wooden veneer snowflakes
and added them to some Kraft paper.
I love the Christmas thank you sentiment from PTI - Signature Greetings Set.

 
Below is a CAS holiday card using Unity, die cut snowflakes,
button, twine, and more PTI sentiments...

Holiday Cards...

 
Just got my hands on some new Kaisercraft papers....
These cards were made using the Just Believe line
(I also have the Turtle Dove and Twig & Berry)
Lots of gorgeous papers in each package.
It's hard to tell from the photographs - but some of them have a silver foil
embossed into them.
 
On the top card I used a cream library card and spritzed it with
some Glimmer Mist.
The bottom card uses the metallic string I have available in
my Etsy Shop.
(Where you can also find the twine and library cards)

Gift Card Bags/Ornaments


 
I took a bunch of the tiny Kraft treat bags that I have
and decorated them so they may be used
as gift card holders for the holidays.
Gift cards fit perfectly inside these!

 
These have a die cut tag, a die cut stocking, ribbon,
twine, and a button.
The stamped sentiment is from PTI.
The paper is KaiserCraft and is one of the foil papers from the pack.
So much prettier in person!
 
You can even punch a hole in the corner and hang them from the
Christmas tree or a bottle of wine!

 
These sold from my handmade shop rather quickly, so I am
putting together another bunch to list.

My other shop will carry the supplies end of the business.

Christmas Tags...

I finally got a chance to photograph some of the projects I have completed...
This time of year I struggle with getting daylight/sunshine
to get my creations photographed.
Shorter days and early sunsets just don't work for me.
I finally set myself up with some "artificial daylight"
and got lots of pictures taken!
 
Here are some CAS tags I made using some die cut numbers, plain white
die cut tags, and that new curly metallic ribbon I just added
to my Etsy Shop.
I used my watermark ink to add some snowflakes to a couple of
the number sets.
The tags come all strung up with white twine for tying to
that perfect gift.

 
The ribbon is super curly and fun. 
I see me using it on lots more tags and holiday projects!
