Workshop ideas

Shoebox swap night.

Valentines Bookmark

Lighting McQueen

Alright so if you've been following me you have probably noticed I'm starting to get addicted to punch cards. But they are so cute. I just had to share my latest one. Although I had to free hand a big part of this one - I'm proud on how it turned out.
My little great nephew just turned 2 and loves lighting mcqueen. So I took great pleasure in making this for him.

Defintely Decorative

Okay so I have totally not gave this decorative decor stuff enough play time. But think I'm really starting to love it! =D My husband gave me this planner forever ago and I don't leave home with out it hardly ever. But it defiantly needed dressin' up a bit for me. When I realized I had this "119525 Songbird Tile" which by the way they have tons to choose from and you can apply this to almost anything. Email me and I will be happy to tell you all about it.

You can even apply to your car. chayea!

Faux Leather

I learned this technique from my upline Amy. This was my first try since our tutorial. Doesn't it look like the real thing ?!!!! (it sold my hubby) all you do is:
1. Cut foam sheet larger than image to be stamped.
2. Ink stamp and have waiting on the stamp pad.
3. Using heat tool, heat foam until it starts curling up.
4. Quickly stamp image-press firmly and hold for 20 seconds.
5. Remove stamp and trim foam to desired size.

SNOWMAN SOUP
Pour the packet in a mug.
and the snowballs too
Throw in the kisses;
the snowman sent you.
Now add hot water
and use the cane to stir it.
Sip slowly and soon you'll feel
the warm winter spirit.

Memory Page in a Box

Directions:
Take a 12 X 12 piece of CS and score at 4'' on all four sides, fold up to create box. For the top you need a 6-7/8 X 6-7/8 piece of CS and score it at 1-3/8 on all four sides. Then just decorate to your liking. =)

Thanks to Linda for sharing this clever idea on her blog.
