Hello There!

August was named perfectly as it's been overcast and muggy as all get out here in Alaska!

Christmas Gift & Tag

Happy Wintery Day To You!

Well I've finally got my first crown and it's not fun going thru all that pain especially when it happens to be a rear molar......all's good now and it's healing!

Thankfully I have been home, because the weather has been really nasty with continued freezing rain  expecting more to come and top that off we have heavy fog too!.  I'm hopeful that we might get some snow, as come friday that's what's expected for the extended forecast.

Today's project I'm gonna show you is a recycled Starbucks bottle that I filled with homemade Lavender Spa Bath Salts with a decorated Tag

Digital images are Emerald Fairies that are fussy cut, colored with Copic Markers & Stickles on their little wings 

Small ticket is from one of Tim Holtz's Stamp Collections & topped with a poinsettia from Wild Orchid Flowers 

Topped off with a 3D sticker, now don't you think this be a fun gift to give!

Glorious Sunday to You

It's sunny and cold out today, weather forecast this next week is the teens during the day.....that means  even colder nights and chilly mornings!  This past week I had a tooth break and pre for crown, not my type of fun and along with that Grand Jury too!  The Fun never ends....LOL

Come And Get It Challenge this week is all about Making Gifts and Meighan is our hostess, well if your the crafty type of person there are so many options!  

You can check out the wonderful selection at Split Coast Stampers in the tutorials or cruise Pinterest.

Be sure to stop by and check out the fabulous creations from the Design Team

I was at odds as what to make for the challenge but I finally decided after I went thru my craft drawers and found some 2" Clear Acrylic tiles that I'd bought many moons again.

I've made one into a Ornament and the other is a Magnet

So the instructional steps to making these are as follows

1. Stamp Image with Black Stazon....heat emboss

2. Using Acrylic paint to color......heat emboss

3. Using Versa-Mark cover entire tile and heat emboss with sparkly embossing powder

4. Cut card stock/designer paper for backing 

5. Using Red Line Tape (tacky tape) hold card stock to tile and edge with tape 

6. Remove liner on tape and cover all edges with art glitter 

7. Cut Magnet to finish or drill hole for hanging
