Crystal Floral Earrings for Connie Crystal

Hi Everyone,

Since I first received all of the product from Connie Crystal when I began working on their design team, I fell in love with the crystal sheets. My mind just exploded with all of the different ideas that I could do with these beautiful sheets. These earrings were just as easy to create as the bracelet. Since you can create them both in very little time, as I stated in my last post, think of all the color possibilities you'll have just by changing the color of the flowers!

For a full supply list and instructions for both of these projects, please visit the Connie Crystal blog at www.sparklebycc.com

Thank you for joining me. Until next time...
Crafty hugs,

Love is the Master Key Card

Hi Everyone,

This is a card that I created for another design team that I'm on for KellyCraft Innovation's Get-it-Straight Laser Square. I have been talking and promoting this fabulous product since I first saw it at the CHA summer show in 2012.

I love creating cards that are somehow different from the normal. I love cards that fold different, are shaped different, or maybe a card that moves, or shakes...you get the idea. 
Every month on the KellyCraft blog, I'll teach you how to create different types of cards, but always made with my favorite tool, the Get-it-Straight Laser Square!

If you would like to get the material list and full instructions for each card that I create every month using this great tool, please visit the KellyCraft blog at www.kellycraftblog.blogspot.com.

Thank you for joining me.  Until next time...

Magic of Oz- Part 4 in 4 Series

Hi Everyone,

Welcome back to the last part on my series, "Magic of Oz" photo book.  As I have said in my earlier posts, this photo book was a lot of work but most definitely a labor of love.

I really hope that you will take the time to recreate this photo book for yourself.  Or to take the time to create something for yourself about a topic that you love.  I spend so much of my time designing for my clients or my family and friends that I rarely get the opportunity to create something just for me.

That is exactly what this photo book is all about.  I have a whole room in my house that my family calls the "Oz Room" and this entire room is dedicated to the Wizard of Oz movie.  I have memorabilia everywhere in this room and a beautiful curio cabinet with items that I have treasured for a very long time.  I thank my dad for this room because when I was in high school, he started my collection with a set of plates that hang over my fireplace mantle. 

Even though my dad is no longer with me, I know that he sees each new item that I add to my collection and he continues to remind me everyday that "There's No Place Like Home".  My wish for the world is that everyone would have a safe place to go and the feeling in their hearts that there really is no place like home.

Thank you for joining me.  Until next time...

Guest Blogger- Ann Butler!!!

 


Hi Everyone,

I am so happy and excited for my very close friend, Ann ButlerAnn has taken her wonderful talent and joined forces with Unity Rubber Stamps to create her own line of rubber stamps!

Her faux quilting rubber stamps are fabulous to work with!  And not just for quilting patterns either.  You can use them on any surface and create multiple patterns with them.

I have included a gorgeous quilt that Ann has designed with her stamps and also a stunning mosaic piece just to give you a tiny sneak peek of what you can do with these stamps.  I will also be creating a pillow with Ann's stamps that will be published in the June 1st issue of our magazine, Bella Crafts Quarterly.  Please be sure that you check that out at bellacraftsquarterly.com on June 1st when the magazine goes live on our website.  It's a Free download and it will be packed with all summer themed projects and wonderful articles about the craft industry!!!

For more of Ann's fabulous designs, please visit her website at www.creativitystirsthesoul.com. She will also be coming out with some other products in the very near future and I will share all the information about those products very soon!!!

Looking Into The Past- Clown Birthday Set


Hi Everyone,
 
 
I decided that in celebration of my birthday that just recently passed, I would share with you a project that I did many years ago for a magazine called Craft Home & Style. I just love all of the colors in this project!!!
 
This project would be very fun to create for any child's birthday! Although the stamps are long gone I'm sure, you can always substitute any type of birthday stamp in their place.  The birthday set includes a plate, cup, napkin ring, pencil with a banner attached and a small notebook.
 
 The plate is something that the kids can eat off of too.  I stamped it on sticker paper and then put a clear contact paper over the stamped image.  Very fun, colorful and easy to make for those little ones in your life!
 
Thank you for joining me.  Until next time...

Magic of Oz Photo Book- Part 3

Hi Everyone,

I am so glad that you stopped by for part 3 of my series on my "Magic of Oz" photo book.  This photo book was such a fun project for me to make since I could combine 2 of my favorite things- The Wizard of Oz movie and Graphic 45 papers!!!

As I have said in my previous posts, I don't have instructions for this book because I basically did my own thing. That's the great thing about mixed media. You take a bunch of products and create each page to you own liking. If I were to create this book again, it would be completely different from this one.

I can tell you some of the products I used- Graphic 45 papers & chipboard pieces, Clearsnap inkpads, Zip Dry Paper Glue, rubber stamps from Hampton Arts and different embellishments from a few different companies.

I hope you take the time to create a book like this. For me, it really was a labor of love!!!

Thank you for joining me. Until next time...
