Holly Jolly Blog Hop

Hi Everyone... Welcome to the Holly Jolly Blog Hop. This hop is hosted by Kristen of Fantabulously Pink. We have a full line-up of talented paper crafters. Make sure you visit everyone's blog for lots of fun.  If you arrived from Christine's site site, you're in the right place.

For my project I made a Matchbook Paperbag Mini Album. It is a fun and easy project to put together. It can be done in a few hours and it will look like you spent a great deal of time on it. I got the inspiration from Kathy Orta. she made one last year and I had bought the paper pack. I had too many projects to do then, however I found the time this year.

The cover of the album resembles a book of matches. Inside are 6 pages made out of the paperbags from Michaels. Inside each page is a pocket on the top which holds a large tag. you can use any page or tag to add photos or journaling.

Crafty Steampunk Blog Hop

Hi everyone... Welcome to my blog and welcome to Leslie Rahye's Crafty Steampunk Blog Hop. I am so excited to be able to join in on this hop. I was a little intimidated by doing this since this is so out of my norm, but I have to say that I had a lot of fun creating this mini album.

I bought the Steampunk Debutante paper pack by Graphic 45 a while ago and I had not used it. I'm so glad that I did. This 4 x 4 accordian mini album is made entirely from Graphic 45 paper. There is tons of space for pictures and lots of tags for photos or journaling.

If you missed it, please scroll down to view my project for day 1 blog post.  To start at the beginning of the hop, please visit our hostess, Kathryn of Creations with Kathryn. If you are following along on the hop, you should have arrived here from Lissa's site.

Today's project doesn't involve any paper crafting. I used a pattern that I loved to create this Autumn Leaves Tissue Box Holder. I stitched the box using 7-mesh Plastic Canvas.The background is a tan color while the leaves are stitched in brown, green and orange. The same pattern is stitched on all four sides. This is a super easy and fast project to put together.

Just in case you get lost along the way, here is the line-up...

If you've come from visiting Kerry's blog, you're in the right place. If you were just looking at my blog and want to have some fun and celebrate with us, you can start at the beginning at Melissa's site.

For my first project, I made some yummy Birthday Cake scented Soy Donut Melts.They look good enough to eat and smell good enough to eat, but please do not eat them. These donuts are not edible. They are soy tarts that you place in a oil burner or warmer and once the warmer is turned on, the fragrance is released in the air. 

My second project I created a Pinkalicious Party 6 x 6 layout. The papers are from Recollections. I used Paper Lace,  Paper Lace 2,  and Elegant Edges Cricut Cartridges.

Recipe:

Flaunt It Friday's - Friday the 13th Blog Hop

If you are here for the Festive Friday Blog Hop, please go HERE or scroll down. If you are here for the Friday the 13th Blog Hop, you are in the right place.

Hi Everyone... Thanks so much for joining me as I have the pleasure of being a Guest Designer on the Flaunt I t Friday’s Blog Hop. I know you can't tell by reading this, but I am sooooo excited to be able to join in on the fun.  You should have arrived here from Mel's site. If you just happened upon my blog, please stay around and enjoy. To start at the beginning of the hop please go to Flaunt It Friday's site.

For our first project we were to create a project using the phrase "Friday the 13th" on page 54 of the Happy Hauntings Cricut Cartridge. My first project is a shaped TV card that measures 6 x 6 inches. I used the Gypsy to weld two TV's form the Groovy Times Cricut Cartridge to create a shaped card. I used jewel toned paper for the layers. I found an image of Jason to add to the TV screen and layered the Friday the 13 phrase on top. I then layered a piece of transparency on top for the screen.

Groovy Times Cricut Cartridge

Recollections paper packs (Jewel Tones, Transparent)

Diamond Stickles

Glossy Accents

For my second project I created a mini photo frame from the Happy Hauntings cartridge. This frame was cut at 3 inches. I used a witch's silhouette for the image. This would be a great size to add a mini wallet size photo. I added Black Diamond Stickles to the "web" layer. This was super easy to create. You could use a variety of different papers for different looks.
