I love bright colors, so this collection was perfect for me! I decided to make a couple decor items for my daughter. Emma just turned 8 and like her mother, she is NOT a morning person. Her door is always covered with notes to us or her brother that are often pretty comical. I made her a two sided door hanger so that we will know her mood before entering - either "Do Not Disturb" or "Pleaz Knock!" </div><div><br /> </div><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5537773868522709042" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 283px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjGOBRqvg3ti93d8NBGI8NxZ01d_HAYFgVMdaHuAknYgh2EiP2l1wo59fB4sCIJW9c4Kvz48jIJ3LoaH770ZWKNVMlIYNmii2lZ8W2n7ZAyJIc6jd6y8eSC7iJkDEyzN6iJaXMkVxI1lCA/s320/misc.jpg" border="0" /><br />I also made her a sign to match, that she can hang in her room. I believe both of these wood pieces are from Creative Imaginations. I used Plaid Paint "Laguna." I kept my designs fairly simple using stickers, diecuts and alphabet stickers. I also cut some items from the patterned paper, using some pop dots for added dimension. On the sign I used a <a href="http://www.creativecharms.com/shop/New-Product/p/Vintage-Jewels--CLEAR-sku-VP-9002.htm">clear Vintage Jewel</a> for my apostrophe and added a minature <a href="http://www.creativecharms.com/shop/Dream-Garden/Sparkled-Butterfly-Medley--Assorted-Sizes/p/Sparkled-Butterfly-Medley--GREEN--sku-DG-0083-BG.htm">Sparkled Green Butterfly</a>.

The sign I decorated here came in white, but these also come in black. Since they aren’t raw wood, it saves the step of having to paint them. If you find a raw wooden sign though don’t be frightened! A quick paint job and you are ready to decorate. </div><div><br />I used:<br /><a onclick="javascript:_gaq.push(['_trackEvent','outbound-article','www.createforless.com']);" href="http://www.createforless.com/search/results.aspx?txtSearch=K%26Co%20Grand%20Adhesions%20Stickers%20%20Halloween%20" target="_self">K&Co Grand Adhesions Stickers</a></div><div><a onclick="javascript:_gaq.push(['_trackEvent','outbound-article','www.createforless.com']);" href="http://www.createforless.com/K_and_Company+Mat+Pad+4.75x6.75+Tim+Coffey+Halloween/pid161490.aspx" target="_self">K&Co Halloween Mat Pad</a></div><div><a onclick="javascript:_gaq.push(['_trackEvent','outbound-article','www.createforless.com']);" href="http://www.createforless.com/search/results.aspx?txtSearch=Clearsnap%20black" target="_self">Black Ink such as Clearsnap</a></div><div><a onclick="javascript:_gaq.push(['_trackEvent','outbound-article','www.createforless.com']);" href="http://www.createforless.com/search/results.aspx?txtSearch=Therm%20O%20Web%20Super%20Tape" target="_self">Therm O’ Web Super Tape</a></div><div>Wooden Sign </div><div><br />For this project I reached for one of the Halloween Mat Pads by K&Co, they were the perfect size (4.75″ x 6.75″) as I didn’t waste a lot of paper when tracing. The mat pads have two sided papers – one printed, one solid – and all papers coordinate together. On my sign I varied between patterns and solids. Decide which paper you want to use, trace the letter with a pencil and cut out. This sign had some areas I couldn’t trace very well so on those areas I put the paper over the sign and pressed around the edges to find where I should trace. Since I was planning to shabby this up, I wasn’t worried about pencil lines. If you don’t want to erase the lines and aren’t going shabby, flip the sign over and trace on the back side of the paper before cutting out.<br /><br /><a href="http://thinkcrafts.com/files/2010/09/halloweensign-closeup-cless.jpg"></a><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5531785021618241890" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 239px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhT8SK1OCtxxDNB-wZg5atZneYiiZ6Q5svEmxZtrNZ3zujqbqz3paJZVBgvmby9Kux3xJY1nP45Y6YtTvZ8R8Jp8YHDw3pjV7h_7u9UPT7dAEdkgVpBoFQRR6CN5d9qrS37YH85cn4ifBI/s400/halloweensign+closeup+cless.jpg" border="0" />After tracing and cutting out the letters (you may need to do a little trimming), it’s time to crinkle your paper. If you don’t want such a rough looking crinkle you can spray with water first or even iron some of the wrinkles out. You then take your ink pad to the wrinkles and add ink to the edges and wrinkles. I also rubbed my ink pad around the edges of the letters on my sign so everything would blend into the bright white sign better. To adhere I recommend an extra sturdy tape such as Therm O’ Web Super Tape. I then added some of the coordinating Grand Adhesions Halloween Stickers to the sign.<br /><br />You can often find these word signs on clearance after the holidays or sometimes even before if they are damaged. This sign had a couple chips in the letters and I easily covered them up with paper and some ink. The next time you see a wooden wood sign at a store, get out your scrapbooking supplies and decorate!<br /></div></div></div></div>Jennifer Hansenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17261181010367720598noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4118143334572344035.post-32000094205362311012010-10-20T09:52:00.000-05:002010-10-24T20:01:28.490-05:00Halloween Gift Bags using Creative Charms October Kit<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhAodBPOsAbtLSARCwRugOwrd9qLXoNr8yJiqAh0BFdH9YiHOEYa3Xs1od2qM7pWzlc-3Xm6x_lDwDC95Br8_iZiZ5flVbPrUe6n40KNw0hmdCi-CkM8bziX3to4TmBDPx5fWw5VeORK1U/s1600/misc+034.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5531782319001616994" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 175px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 320px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhAodBPOsAbtLSARCwRugOwrd9qLXoNr8yJiqAh0BFdH9YiHOEYa3Xs1od2qM7pWzlc-3Xm6x_lDwDC95Br8_iZiZ5flVbPrUe6n40KNw0hmdCi-CkM8bziX3to4TmBDPx5fWw5VeORK1U/s320/misc+034.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiKp11xJjS8powh0jVykfs2ICqejH0UIvFVsGfT3gKnv63fJRX2WEWBL-kiyqoonD4dp7dtMtpyAz0o5DPTtXmDQCjRZgr2EdL0_XP-m9P73cq1FANCoDpkFW-BS_uu-BraxTkl7J_V0GQ/s1600/misc+029.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5531782115422789362" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 181px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 320px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiKp11xJjS8powh0jVykfs2ICqejH0UIvFVsGfT3gKnv63fJRX2WEWBL-kiyqoonD4dp7dtMtpyAz0o5DPTtXmDQCjRZgr2EdL0_XP-m9P73cq1FANCoDpkFW-BS_uu-BraxTkl7J_V0GQ/s320/misc+029.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><div>With <a href="http://www.creativecharms.com/shop/Kit-of-the-Month/p/October-Kit-of-the-Month--Vintage-Halloween-sku-kit1010.htm">October's Kit of the Month,</a> I decide to create a couple mini gift bags.

I then used a Vintage Velvet Black Poppy (removed the pearl brad from the center to save for a future project) and used a Halloween Vintage Frame as the flower center.</div><div></div><br /><div>Vintage Halloween features Creative Charms' newest items and some of the most popular vintage items.

I am a butterfly junkie so of course my favorite part of this entire kit are the felt butterflies. I also used Gradient Gem Stickers to add some shine to the butterflies and used the ribbon as "grass" on this card. On both cards the papers I used are from Echo Park's Sweet Summertime collection available from <a href="http://www.thatscrappygirl.com/category_136/Echo-Park-Paper.htm">That Scrappy Girl</a> and I reached for <a href="http://www.shopatron.com/products/productdetail/Sticker+Sentiments+-+Thinking+of+You/part_number=51006/3258.0.1.1.71066.0.0.0.0?">SRM sentiment stickers.</a> <div><div><div><br /><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5505847754451659058" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 254px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 320px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiXYU4GjkqmCIuVRS3Tn38j8l8vgKVZR7FYqHThrZtEGsA10nZxI0-6hkKKw7rAfO1ZYAG2tyKXXms_quHOaC9JwPeqFes5V4VCkSSSXyU1SMuwdJJBmb9gh2iSqufOn2n_RWw_Sdnxs-0/s320/thanks+epark+cch+sg.jpg" border="0" />On my second card I once again reached for the Gradient Gem Stickers and also added one of the super cute Flower Brads.

Unfortunately I haven't found any papers of hers locally yet and I'm not always much of an online shopper (mostly because I've already blown the budget locally!), so I was excited to get some. This is one of my favorite lines of hers - My Sweet Cherry Pie, I think it's the colors and then the fun elements I can cut from the paper. Here are a couple super simple, quick and easy cards. (The tree card I made for a sketch call at Paper Crafts, but it did not get the love, so I can share with you).</div><div></div><br /><div>I had planned to hopefully type up a nice sized post with lots of projects tonight to make up for my lack of posting lately, but wouldn't you know yet another tornado warning tonight and I spent most of the evening in the basement with the kidlets. (This has been our 3rd one in the last month). This time the tornado was a couple miles east/northeast of us, but I have heard that it destroyed a few houses in our smallish town. I am waiting to hear more info, but luckily it sounds like no one was hurt. And sorry but this part is kind of funny: They had to cancel the Wizard of Oz performance tonight because of a tornado. Seriously...not making that up! It is now late and I'm tuckered, so will try to post more projects later this weekend.</div></div>Jennifer Hansenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17261181010367720598noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4118143334572344035.post-81129677907921551832010-07-21T21:11:00.005-05:002010-07-21T21:14:33.988-05:00Sassafras and SRM Sentiments...here's my CKC reject card!<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgLm4jEPDrDE0AnYt7ogwDOwv77_7b6JZod9NYv5A3urUm2ohyphenhyphenZLYIMnd_6m7uHWaf4JB5yB6GGjyUFuA9cUj-B_5VhmVwzWtwHjFy_fWV9C55gyWO-LmQseZIKvzl8ujXCG5-Q9N1UBOI/s1600/many+thanks+sfras+sgirl.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5496547530074589506" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 231px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgLm4jEPDrDE0AnYt7ogwDOwv77_7b6JZod9NYv5A3urUm2ohyphenhyphenZLYIMnd_6m7uHWaf4JB5yB6GGjyUFuA9cUj-B_5VhmVwzWtwHjFy_fWV9C55gyWO-LmQseZIKvzl8ujXCG5-Q9N1UBOI/s320/many+thanks+sfras+sgirl.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><div>I sometimes feel like a one trick pony, but I just love patterned papers where I can fussycut the patterns/pictures out. That Scrappy Girl's <a href="http://www.thatscrappygirl.com/category_132/Nerdy-Bird.htm">Sassafras Lass's Nerdy Bird </a>papers are great for this. The flowers are from patterned paper and the "grass" and sun are stickers. The sun had longer rays, but I cut them down to fit on the card. I also find myself having my embellies hang off the edge of cards lately too. This card I made for a challenge at the CKC crop. We had to use something from out goodie bag (I chose the Queen and Co photo turns and the piece of white cardstock) It didn't get the love, but I still like it anyway!

I'm not sure what happened, but I'm thinking (hoping) that it's starting to come back. Here are some cards I made with the Flutter collection from <a href="http://momenta.com/">Momenta</a>. I chose this collection right away, because butterflies are one of my very favorite things to use on my projects. I also wanted to let you know that Momenta now has a <a href="http://mymomenta.wordpress.com/">blog</a> so be sure to check it out for projects, giveaways and other fun stuff - there is a<a href="http://mymomenta.wordpress.com/2010/07/02/lets-celebrate-with-some-layouts/"> giveaway</a> going on right now for some Moment product.

Then didn't seem to get around to taking new ones. Here they finally are. I had one more to share, but it was picked up for a magazine...yipee! These first two cards were made with the <a href="http://www.thatscrappygirl.com/category_133/Fly-A-Kite.htm">October Afternoon Fly A Kite collection</a>. The <a href="http://www.thatscrappygirl.com/category_88/Mini-Market-Alphabet-Stickers.htm">mini alphas </a>are also October Afternoon...I love mini alphas - they are a staple in my stash. The sentiments stickers are from <a href="http://srmpress.com/">SRM Stickers</a>. The last card was made using<a href="http://www.thatscrappygirl.com/category_128/Apple-Jack.htm"> Sassafras Lass's Apple Jack collection</a>. The little strip under the star is from the scalloped paper age that comes on all of their papers. I am also a sucker for scalloped stuff! The October Afternoon and Sassafras Lass papers can be found at <a href="http://thatscrappygirl.com/">That Scrappy Girl</a>. I hope that everyone has a great 3 day Memorial weekend!</div></div>Jennifer Hansenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17261181010367720598noreply@blogger.com4
