Birthday gift bag

Hello stampers!
See this adorable gift bag?  We made this and the card to the very left at the last make & take I had.  I got the idea for the 3-d cake from something I saw at CVS and thought I'd try it!  The cake layers are strips of designer paper adhered to white cs in 3 sizes with the ends folded back and attached with a dimensional - while bended to curve outwards.  It looks alot harder than it was!  Then I designed the birthday flower/banner card to match.
The fabric needlework hoop was made by Paula for a roomie gift at convention.  Cute!
Thanks for stopping by!

Flower Fun

This is a display I had for a class sign-up to make these fun flowers!  The pink and turq. on the bottom left, were made by punching scallops, bonerizing them and pulling the cs apart, crumpling and stacking.  I LOVE the new silicone mat and sticky circles for flower making!  Going to get a better close of of the other flowers for next post---come back and see!

More Open House pics....

 This was part of my Christmas area...Paula made the stocking banner for one of our convention WOW swaps--just love how you can make one in any color theme!  And what a great gift idea!

I tried to case the ornament on the front of the Holiday catty and then made some more of my own using the ornament framelits and stamp set.  I love how it turned out, but will never make another one!  (a bit time consuming!)

Sherrie made this fun Halloween bag for my open house using the new "Natural Composition Specialty" paper from the SU catty.  My first time to use it and I really love it!  And we noticed how "banners" for embellishments are really in now..

Thanks for coming by and please stop by again!  I am getting used to the new bog system and hope to add more things on a VERY regular basis!

I'm BACK! New pics from Open House

Hi!  Glad you came to my blog!  I know it's been forever since I've posted--but am back on it now! 
The tree card at the top was made by Dana for a WOW swap we had at convention.  Isn't it beautiful?  I made the framed design from a similar one in the Stampin' Up catty.  LOVE that they have so many great ideas in there!

This Halloween house is actually a box that I got at Stone Hill Winery to carry the 2 bottles of wine I bought.  As soon as I saw it, I KNEW it had to become a Haunted House!  It was like being in school again, with a project to creat--so much fun!  More pics to follow soon--making sure I can remember how to post after so long!
