~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Now onto my project!
I have been wanting to make this fun 3D Acorn from the
 SVG Cuts~ Acorn Autumn SVG Kit ever since I purchased the kit over a year ago.
I finally got around to making it...Yippee...and I am so happy with how it turned out!
Sure hope you like it too!!

Didn't it turn out awesome??? I used the designer paper from Echo Park~ Reflections Fall paper pack...my favorite fall pad! The colors are awesome and the patterns, FAB!

The sentiment is from My Craft Spot~Happy Fall! stamp set and I tied the circle tag onto the top using some 3GJ Sunflower and Hot Chocolate crinkle ribbon.

Here is another angle of the acorn...it is such a GREAT size to fill with some treats and would make for a beautiful addition to the Thanksgiving table :)

I sure hope you have enjoyed my project and will play along with us over at the 

3 Girl JAM Challenge Blog!

Totally Limeade New Release.....{Trendy Twine Blog Hop}

Good Morning 

and 

Welcome to the Totally Limeade New Release Hop!!

The Trendy Twine DT is kicking off the month of October with a blog hop to showcase one of the newest colors joining the Trendy Twine family......

introducing Totally Limeade

Think of all the awesome things you can do with this gorgeous color! And since Halloween is only a few weeks away, we are all sharing fun Halloween projects using this new color!

You should be coming from
 Helen 
if not you want to hop back over to 
Trendy Twine
you are not going to want to miss anything!

Now I am sure you want to get to my project...

I made a fun Witch's Hat using a file from

SVG Cuts.... here it is, hope you like it!

What do you think???

Here is how I did this.... 

I cut the witch's hat using a file from the Gimme Candy Boxes  using my Cameo. Instead of using the band for the hat, I took my Totally Limeade Trendy Twine and some ATG tape and ran lines of the twine to cover the band. I did add some Mono Aqua Liquid Glue to the edges to give it some extra holding power as well as ran a stitch along each of the corners  for a decorative look and so I knew the twine wasn't moving.

Next I added some more Totally Limeade Trendy Twine to attach my sentiment ticket. The twine goes through the top of the hat and is taped inside but the ticket is free floating, I just tied the twine in a bow and stuck it under the buckle of the hat.

How adorable is this?? 
The witch's hat opens up to hold some treats...
Bet this would make someone's Halloween extra special

Supplies Used:

Paper~ Bazzill Black, Purple

Stamps~ My Creative Time~Fright Night

Cuts/Dies~ SVG Cuts~Gimme Candy Boxes

Welcome Little One {PKS Challenge 13~14}

Hi everyone!!

Hope you are having a GREAT hump day!

I spent the morning with my car at the shop for the routine oil change and tire rotation :(

But I was able to finish my card for this week's 

Peachy Keen Stamps Challenge: Just Cards: Siblings

I have several friends and a few family members that will be welcoming babies to their families and thought this would be a cute card to have an older sibling give to the new baby.

I hope you like it!

I am not one to make many shaped cards but remembered that I had the adorable SVG Cuts files~Bundle of Joy which has this cute bottle shaped card. I cut all the pieces out with my Cameo using kraft cardstock (The Kraft Outlet) ,Bazzil cardstock and designer paper from Up Up and Away (First Edition Paper)

The baby was a new file I just purchased from the Silhouette Store HERE and I added my face from PK~491 Everyday Character Faces. Of course I could not leave out the white gel pen eyes, pink chalk cheeks and freckles :)

The tag, along with the sentiment is from The Alley Way Stamps (Tag~Alongs and Tiny Treasures) and I ended up using the sewing machine to add some stitching (surprised????)

Finished it up by adding some 3GJ crinkle ribbon in Baby Boy and Chocolate Truffle Trendy Twine .

So what do you think????

Thanks for stopping in today and have a GREAT rest of the day!!!

Anyways I have a Shaped card to share that will be entered into several challenges

I just LOVE my peachy keen stamps and all the cuteness they bring!!
Don't you think??
So for my card I used a file from SVG Cuts~ Gingerbread Chalet Village 
parts of the Baking Card from that file.

Here is a close-up of those adorable Gingerbread peeps from the PKS
Gingerbread Doll Set.
I added some white gel pen to the arms and feet and some chalk and more gel pen doodles 
to the sweet little girl doll.
For their hats I used the santa stamp from the same set, cut off the bell part of the stamp and added my own jingle bells with some Trendy Twine in Holly Berry
I also added some white fluff using my snow writer pen.
I am making a baking gift basket for my son's school auction fund raiser and thought this would work out perfectly to put in the basket.

Authentique~ 
Wonder

Guest Designer~ 3 Girl Jam featuring Celebrations Crinkle Ribbon

Good Morning!

I am so excited to be a Guest Designer today for 3 Girl Jam!

Julie had 2 new bundles of Crinkle Ribbon that just came out ~~BEAUTIFUL~~

and I got the chance to play with the Celebration Bundle~ OMG this is FABULOUS!!

For my project I made a 3d treat box using all files from SVGCuts.com

My box file came from Santa's Visit

I used the window from the Spirits of Christmas Past

and cut out the frame so these pieces could be attached using a clear piece of plastic.

My cardinal was actually a freebie download again from SVGcuts

For the handles of the box I used the Tuxedo Crinkle Ribbon

 attached on each side using eyelets.

A bow is tied at the top

One of the sides has 2 stocking cut from the

Merry and Bright SVG Kit

and little bows using the Sterling Crinkle Ribbon

Here is the other side with a simple Christmas tree that was also

a freebie download

Every gift box need a gift tag so I cut out the freebie

To Santa tag only and the freebie Joy Ornaments and

put those on the front of my tag

The back was left blank so I can write my message.

SO....

There is a Giveaway to win not only the 2 new bundles

Celebrations

and

Wine and Jewels Bundle

BUT

the TOTAL Package Bundle

That is 64 total yards of Crinkle Ribbon!

All you have to do is leave some LOVE on my blog and that of the other

For this card I used Kraft Card Stock for the base

DCWV The Merry Christmas Stack DP

and

PTI card stock

The gingerbread man was the free svg download over at SVGCuts.com

and

instead of using the face that came with the download I stamped mine with PK~521 Winter Faces.

So Peachy Keen Cute!!

The sentiment on the outside is from Bugbites~Mistletoe Magic Stamp Set

and it was stamped on My Creative Times~ Curly Label Die

I also used 3 Girl Jam crinkle ribbon in Mistletoe and Twinery Twine in Maraschino
