CATS From Enjoli...

Here is the wonderful card & tag set that Enjoli sent me! It was well worth the wait.



And look at all the goodies she sent! Thank you Enjoli! You are way too sweet!

Chococat Containers...

Here is a container that I decorated with Chococat and filled with some yummy chex mix. I saw these adorable Chococats posted here. I just adore all the Sanrio characters. Jenny was kind enough to share with me how she created Chococat. Please visit her blog if you haven't already. I know you will be inspired by many of her adorable creations! Thanks Jenny!

My December CATS...

Here is the card & tag set that I made for my CATS partner Tia. The theme for this month was Christmas. So I dusted off some of my punches and worked on some old Christmas punch art to decorate my card & tag. I hope she liked it!

Happy New Year!

I can't believe how busy I've been these past couple of weeks with all the holiday celebrations and just trying to enjoy the QT with the family. It's been almost a month since my last post, but not to worry. I've been busy crafting too and have some things to share. So please keep posted as I try to play catch up! I just wanted to wish everyone a HAPPY NEW YEAR! May you be blessed in 2012!!

Tags, Tags, & More Tags...

Here are the tags that I made for the staff at DD2 &DD3's school... yup, all 165 of them! They will be attached to the staff's Christmas gift from the PTO this year. I kept them really simple, but I hope the staff will appreciate all the love that went into creating these tags. There are 2 different types of tags. One has a punch border on the bottom and the other doesn't. The reason for this is as I was prepping the tags, my poor punch broke! I don't know why, but lately a few of my punches have been breaking down on me. Do you think it's from over use? LOL! I'm sure that's why, but hey, at least I got my monies worth before they broke down. Okay, enough of the chit chat. Thanks for stopping by. I hope to be back with more to share. I have some projects done. Just need to upload the pictures to blogger, but for some reason I've been having trouble uploading the pictures. Oh well, until next time...

My November CATS...

Here is the card and tag that I created for my partner this month for our CATS (card and tag swap). My partner this month was Enjoli and she is a big fan of Hello Kitty so I'm hoping she'll like my creations. The theme this month was "bling" so I decided to make it sparkle by using some glitter paper and also adding some rhinestones. The Hello Kitty paper that I used is actually a piece of origami paper that I found here locally at Shirokiya's. I guess you could say that it helps to think "outside the box" and try to find other ways to use items. Thanks again for all your sweet comments!

Coupon Holders...

I am back... again, but first I wanted to wish you all a belated "Happy Thanksgiving!" I hope that all of you had a nice, relaxing time with friends & family. And for those of you who were brave enough to head to the stores on Black Friday, I hope that you got what you went there for. We, on the other hand, decided to avoid the crowded malls and spent some well deserved QT with the family. Okay, let's get back to my project that I wanted to share with you today.

Here is a book that I created for some wonderful friends. I finally dusted off my BIA machine and created this book w/pockets. I made one for myself and use it to hold my coupons when I go shopping. But as you can see, I decided to leave the tabs blank in case the recipients want to use it to hold other things. I used my Big Shot to cut out the Hello Kitty and the SU tab punch for the tabs, along with some various DSP. Thanks for taking the time out to check out my project!
