Sweet Treats January 2020

Good morning and Happy New Year!

I cannot believe that we are already in 2020, it just blows my mind 

I really need to get back into scrapbooking more often, so I figure I would start the year of on the right foot with a simple layout. I am just a tab bit behind but that’s ok. It’s fun going through older photos and reminisce. 

I also decide to step out of my comfort zone and do some sketch and tic tac toe challenges this month.

I feel like I have set this hobby on the back burner for the last few months. So I am determined to get back into doing layouts and catch up with my scrapbooks.

I also decided that I really need to use up some of the supplies that I’ve had for years. So this was a perfect way to use up old products and get a layout done.

I hope to post more often this year and keep the fire burning for crafting.

Have a great day!

Sketch challenge

  Hello there crafty friends, it has sure been a long time since I have scrapbooked and posted on my blog. I sure do miss it very much.

 

 Well I am here to share with you a layout I got to work on at my Birthday crop over the weekend. I used a couple of challenges to get inspired. The Scrappy Friends Challenges are the ones that I used. The first challenge I used is from Brenda and you can find her blog here with great inspiring sketches and challenges here .  The second challenge came from Rochelle and her challenge is "This or That" which can be found on her Blog with other amazing challenges here.  I hope you have a great day and I look forward to posting more layouts.

Christmas Goody Bag

  Hello there my crafty friends, I hope you are enjoying the Holidays as I am. 
 I wanted to share with you what I made for small gifts. I used muslin bags that are made by my mother Silvia ( thanks Mom)  I also used Pink By Design stamp and die unfortunately the package doesn't have the name of the stamp set :( but it's a super cute set. I also used my all time favorite product that all crafters must have in my opinion lol. Trendy Twine's Cherry Limeade , it's part of their new line of Christmas colors.

Thank you for stopping by and visiting me today.

Merry Christmas

Scrap Society Crop Project

  Hello there my crafty friends. I know it's been a very long time since I've posted last. But a lot has changed in my life ( for the good). My Husband and I have been working so hard to buy a new home, and this year we were able to purchase our dream home. My craft room is still packed away for at least another week and half, but it'll be so worth the wait. I will post pictures of my new craft room as soon as I get it all together again.

 

 

So this week-end was the Scrap Society Clue Crop, and I was very lucky enough to attend. I won lots of goodies, but they're put away now. I wish I had taken a picture as I won them. 

 

   This tag below, was a tag I made for my kids classmates at school for Halloween. I haven't attached it to the goodie bags yet, well because I can't find them in my moving chaos lol.

 

I used some of my most favorite products.

Trendy Twine's Lime Licorice twine

Trendy Twines  Krackle embossing folder

Stampin Up's Tope Note Die

Cricut to die cut the Happy Halloween

Red Stickles for the bats eyes

Tim Holtz Distressing ink Black Soot to ink the edges.

                                    

 

 

 

 

 

 

   This is my next project I made at the crop. It's a note pad wallet. These are for the kids teachers. I hope that they like it.

 My friend Erlinda was so very kind to let me barrow her Build A Bear die from SU last year. So I made a bunch of different bears, but never really had a need for them until now.

 

 

  Here is the inside of the wallet (below). In the envelopes I am going to put individually wrapped candies for a little treat, to help them get through their day.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The Wheelers Prayer

     Hello there my crafty friends. I hope you are all doing well and getting crafty. I have, I've been making a lot of Christmas gifts lately. Unfortunately I can't post them until I give the gifts out. lol So you will have to wait and see them.  Today I made a cool gift for my husband, but I think I am going to give it to him early, well because I HAVE to share it now!! lol I hope he likes it.

I have been using my Pazzles machine more and more lately. But unfortunately my computer keeps freezing up on my. But I was able to cut this Wheelers prayer out with very few glitches.

 

My husband and I love to go 4 wheeling  when ever we get a chance. I saw this on the internet a long time ago, and I saved the picture. I am so happy that I did. He will think its funny.

 

Thank you for stopping by today. I hope you all have a great day.

Trendy Twine Challenge

 

     Hello there, my crafty friends.  I know that I have been missing in action, but I'm back.

 I have seen so many very cool challenges and I always want to enter them, but I tend to doubt myself a little.

 

      Well, today I decided to go a head and bite the bullet and just enter. So I created this really cute snowman tag. He is just made up of 6 different size circle punches.  I embossed it with the Divine swirls folder with my cuttlebug. I also added 2 of my most favorite products, Trendy Twine 

( Candy Cane) and Stickles.

 I have him on my tree now, since I don't have a gift wrapped yet to put him on, so I can't wait to start wrapping, plus it looks better with the tree in the background than my messy table lol.

 

 I hope you like my little Snowman, Thank you for stopping by. Have a wonderful day.

Cricut Challenge 33

Hello there, I hope you are having a great Sunday. I am off to a late start today, but I'm here now. Last week was very weird for my household. I woke up Thursday morning with and overwhelming dizzy feeling. I could not stand up or function, it finally went away Friday evening. Saturday we decided to do a little late Spring cleaning, boy that was a lot of work and we didn't even finish. My son Anthony woke up yesterday with a slight fever, so we fought that all day. I actually got a little scared when it got up to 103.2, but it didn't stay there very long after a Popsicle, some jello and a cool bath along with some Motrin. This morning he woke up just fine. Thank God for that.  Enough about me.

 Here is my quick post for this week since I really had no time to craft at all. This layout took me all of 20 minutes. It's very simple but cute I think. I used some brads that I had purchased oh let me think about 6 years ago when I first got started with Scrapbooking. lol I guess you can call them vintage now lol. I used The Performance Stack by DCWV. I bought this paper stack last year in El Paso Texas with my Aunt. Oh how I miss her!!! In the pictures my son was a little over 2 years old. He was playing my husbands ukulele that we got on our honeymoon in Hawaii in 2005. So this has so many memories for me. My son is now almost 6 years old. I hope you like my layout today. I am realy hoping that I get to craft this coming week. If all goes well.

Cricut cartridge I used
Phrases  "You make me Smile" because my son has a contagious smile.




   Thank you for stopping by today, have a wonderful day.
