Witch's Brew Treat Bag with a Video

Happy Wednesday!

 

Here is another Halloween Treat Holder for you all...

I have been busy making different Treat holders for my daughters...

 

This is a spooky witchy treat bag.

I made a tutorial video on how I made this. I hope you enjoy.

 

 

 

 

Here is the video for the treat holder. 



 

In the description box below the video you will find the item numbers for the treat bag and the label from the silhouette store....

 

It has been a very weekend around here. I decided on Friday that I was going to reorganizing my craft room and get rid of some of the big and bulky cabinets in my room. I have a small craft studio area and the old cabinets just were not good for the room size and I needed something that I was able to open more room up in the craft studio....

During the process of reorganizing I found stuff that I forgot I even had and stuff that I no longer needed, so I ended up getting rid of a lot of stuff out the craft studio and made room for new stuff and now I will actually have an area on the wall to put shelves for me to be able to display some of my items and also to add pictures of my family and etc....

 

The cube organizers I picked up at Walmart they are the Better Homes and Garden Brand, they are the perfect size for the 12x12 papers. I looked at home depot and none of the ones that they had were wide enough in the square areas for the paper. I also picked up 2 black 4ft folding tables that I am now using for the computer area and machine area...

 

The White Cabinet redid... It had a larger top on it before and we ended up getting a smaller top for it now... This cabinet was used to be an ironing area when i was doing quilting.

 

 



I still have a lot of organizing to do but the major part of it is finished now and over the next month I will finish up the rest and then I will be redoing the closet in the craft studio and getting totes and etc for the organizing of embellishments and much more....

 

 

I hope you enjoyed and you come back and see what else I have to share...

 

Have a great day and Happy Halloween....

 



Halloween Girl Scout Treats 2

Happy Thursday to everyone

 

It has been a busy few days around the craft studio and I have been trying to get all my Halloween Sweet Treats finished for all the girls groups and classes....

 

Here is My youngest daughters treats for her Brownie Troop... She will handing these out tonight....

They are simple but spooky

 

I simple made a sour cream container and added some Candy Pumpkins and Candy Corn to them and sealed them and add a cute little scallop circle with Happy Halloween.

 

I made 14 in under 2 hours.....

 

Halloween Papers

 

 

Pumpkins: Pebbles #732295



All Over Pattern: American Crafts Night Fall Halloween Night #35507

 

They are double sided so I used the reverse side for the tags. I used my cameo to make the tags for the spooky sweet treats...

 

 

 

 

 

I am excited I have some happy craft mail coming this week.... I ordered some new embossing folders and stamps. I can't wait until they come in and then I can start working on my Christmas projects.... watch for the 12 days of Christmas Projects starting November.... I can wait to share all the craft ideas and projects with everyone. There will be videos and tutorials on a few of the projects... so watch for them coming next month.....

 

Well off to finish more Halloween treats for the girls and more...

 

Have a wonderful evening and happy crafting!

 

Halloween Treats For Girl Scouts 1

It is a chilly October day here today...

The weather we have been having is crazy one day it is in the 80's and then the next we are bundled up like it is winter...

 

 

I am keeping warm by staying in the craft room and working on some adorable treats for my daughter's Girl Scout Troops.

 

Yesterday my middle daughter had her troop meeting and she handed out these adorable Candy Corn Lollipop covers..

 

 

 

The pattern came from SVG Cutting Files

The set comes with a Bat, Candy Corn, Devil and a monster. They are all so adorable..

 

I used one of the faces from the Peachy Keen Face Set

#PK-500 Snow Face Assortment. I used the 1 3/8" face for the candy corn.

 

Red Chalk to make the rosy cheeks and then a white gel pen to add the freckles....

 

They are easy and quick to make. Great to hand out to the classes, teams and etc....

 

The leader loved them and girls wanted to know if they could make some too....

 

 

I made 15 of them for her troop and they took maybe approx. 2 hours to make start to finish....

 

 

I hope you enjoyed my little share for today and hope you come back to check out tomorrow's project... Also watch for my series of 12 days of Christmas cards and other fun filled projects for Christmas....

 

Happy Crafting...

Today I finished up one of my sets of Thanksgiving Cards for this year...

the banner is cut at 3.44 x 1.03
The inside saying is cut at 4x4
the card base is cut at 4.25 x 8.5
folded in the center
beige mat cut at 4" x 4"
green mat is cut at 3.75 x 3.75
green mat is embossed with a leaf folder that I picked up at Hobby Lobby

I hope you all enjoyed my project for today and come back again and see what else I have to share. 

Today it is rainy here, so I am going to stay in the craft room and work on another set of thanksgiving cards . 

I am also working on some treat favors for my daughters classes at school and also their girl scout groups... 

Busy busy best way to spend this rainy day....

Cute and Adorable Mini Album

Happy Wednesday Everyone!!!!

 

We are getting some summer like weather here the past couple of days , but now we are hearing that we have a cold front coming in with some thunderstorms....

This is some crazy weather around here.... one minute it is freezing and now we are having a bit of summer...

 

 

It has been a very emotional and stressful past couple of weeks here... My oldest daughter had some medical issues and then this past Friday I had to rush my mother's dog Pudgy into the vet, because the shampoo that mom used on her dog caused Pudgy to start having seizures. By the time we were leaving the vets Pudgy seemed to be making a full recovery, she was perky and happy. She needed to stay over night to be monitored at the vets. Saturday Morning I received the news that Pudgy had passed away sometime after midnight.

Pudgy was my mom's companion for the past 4 years and my mom spoiled her she was the baby. I knew my mom would be heartbroken and I feared the worse with my mother, my mom is 80 yrs old and lives alone. I did not want my mom to feel alone, so I started immediately looking for a new pup for her... and within 2 hours someone contacted me with a 1 1/2 yr old female poodle (Maggie). She is a blessing and she took to mom immediately and mom loves her....

 

I knew I wanted to make my mom something so she could still have pudgy with her and a little memory book for her....

 

So I created a cute simple little mini album for Pudgy...

 

 

I bought the design from the Silhouette Store a while back.... It is a Lori Whitlock design. It is so fast and easy to put together, it comes with the box too.

Puppy on the box is from Create A Critter Cricut and it is cut at 3" using the cricut craft room. I stamped the face using my peachy keen stamp set PK-757 Wide Eyed Bushy Tailed Face Assortment. 

 

I did not decorate the pages inside the album because I did not want to over do the album and then it wouldn't fit in the slider box.

 

The paper that I used is cardstock paper stack from Michael's  Recollections Kaitlyn. It is beautiful pastel papers.

 

 

 

Thank you for stopping by today and hope you come back again and see more projects and ideas....

Fall Is In The Air Waterfall Folio

Good Afternoon everyone.... I am so excited for the Fall Season, I love the different color of the leaves and the autumn air. And we do a lot of outdoor activities with the girls during the fall as we do doing the summer, so today I decided that I wanted to get a start on some

Photo Folios for our outings with the girls this year.

 

I had a paper pack from last year that I have already made a small mini album out of last year, but still had quite bit of it left over and thought it was the perfect papers for this project.

 

I had seen a Waterfall Folio by Ginger at My Sisters Scrapper and thought this is would be a great project to do and quick too

 

So this is what I created today with the Paper Pack from Michael's Recollection Signature Fall and Night.... it is an adorable pack....

 

If you would like to make one of these they are fun, easy and quick to make, stop over at My Sisters Scrapper to watch the tutorial and all her other great projects too....

 

The Image on the front is from Miss Kate's Cuttables SVG files and it is so cute I love it.

 

Here is my newest video for the waterfall Folio

 

 

 

 

Thank you for stopping by and hope you come back soon

 

Have a great day!

 

 



 

Summer Fun Day

Summer Fun Day with the Girls

 

 

Yesterday we planned a beach day with my mother in law and her sister.

I brought my daughters and my daughter in law with me to have a great day at the beach.

 

We headed out early in the morning and met everyone at the Ocean.

 

Girls got to go swimming and play in the water with their grammie and their great aunt. My mother also had my niece with her too

 

We all had a fun filled day lots of chats and laughs.

 

My mother in law started feeding seagulls by hand and then she named one Arthur (after my father in law)

 

She was having a blast.

 

 

 

 

I love being able to capture these family memories for my girls....

 

My mother in law hasn't really been able to have a lot of quality time with my daughters. So yesterday I made sure I captured as much of this wonderful time for my daughters and for her as I could... we are planning another beach trip next Wednesday and I am going to make sure that I take two of my cameras full charged so I can capture more memories....

 

 

Today I went to Michael's to find some paper packs that I could make some mini albums for my mother in law and for her sister too and I got a great deal.... 4 paper packs (pads) for under $30

 

 

 

 

So today I am going to go and spend some well needed time in my craft room creating a few mini albums and maybe a Photo Folio too....

 

 

Well I hope everyone remembers capture these special moments in time as time is limited and we never know what tomorrow will bring and we have to live today and enjoy every moment of each day.....

 

 

Happy Crafting everyone ... Have a wonderful day!







4th of July Cupcake Toppers

 Happy Monday Everyone!

 

I hope everyone had a safe and wonderful 4th of July.

Friday it rained heavy here so we did not have any fireworks here that day.

Saturday was filled with errands and shopping for our family and friends cookout for Sunday.

 

I spent most of the day cooking and preparing salads Saturday for Sunday.

 

Sunday morning I baked my cupcakes for the cookout and I made some cupcake toppers for them.

I wanted something different then printed ones that I have been making a lot these past few months.

 

I used my cameo and a design that I had bought from the Sil Store.

 

I made an oops and did not cut enough of them out so I decided to make something different and make 4 pinwheels and added a stick to them to use them as cupcake toppers.

 

 

 

I really love how they all turned out and they were a huge hit at the cookout.

 

We all had a great time and lots of laughs.

It was a great time with family and friends.

 

I hope you all enjoyed my project for today. Check back often for more to come.

 

Have a wonderful day and Happy Crafting!



 

 

Gardening

Happy Tuesday! 

Hope everyone is staying cool this summer. 

This past weekend hubby and I decided to redo our front yard. 

We have been trying to get the grass to grow  back there but every time we tell people do not park in our front yard they do anyways so now we made it so they can't park there and now we can really focus on getting some grass to grow there.... 

My hubby marked out my flower beds for me in the front yard and we let the girls pick the flowers that they wanted to put in the garden. They picked out some beautiful flowers. Then of course as you all know I cannot let the garden be without adding some crafted items to it... So I had an old small picket style fence from the old garden out back and we took it all apart to recycle it. I took the pickets and made signs out of them. I haven't added the saying to them yet that is my project for today .. 

So far this how it turned out, I made a second one to make this one but it will have a different saying on it... .

This is going to be placed where there is a large area that I can't plant any flowers under a tree ... 

This is before this is the layout and you can see the tree base where I can't plant anything 

Got these little birds at the Dollar General yesterday and they are so cute... 

Planted some of the flowers in a bucket that I had from last year and put it up by our front door to add something to the stairs... 

These are the two tiles that I did to lay in the garden ... 

I used my cameo and some outdoor vinyl on floor tiles 6x6 

Today I am going to work on the wooden picket signs . ( Will post pictures when finished). 

I hope you enjoyed . 

Check back often for more to come... 

Have a wonderful day and stay safe!
