Desk Calendar

Today I am back to share one of the gifts I gave the girls attending my classes, It was a Desk Calender & Memo Pad, made using acrylic photo frames from Kmart. I made twenty all up & no two were the same, some I finished with butterflies others with flowers & some with just ribbon.

Thanks for dropping by.

As Promised

I am back as promised & feeling a little flat from our staff Christmas party,which was a great success.

For our last class we made some small items you could give as as Kris Kringle or Teacher gifts.
I chose a colour scheme of Purple & Blue for the evening & tried to create gifts using these colours, the first two matched but the last one was definitely the odd one out.

The first item the girls made was this little embossed glassine bag containing 6 gift cards.

the next was this triangle chocolate box

& finally a ribbon bookmark & matching peg magnet.

That's all for now peeps,

Lets try again

Well I am back to try & do my post for a second time. Just as I was typing my post up this afternoon we had a storm come through & lost power for a couple of hours seems to be every Tuesday we are having a power outage.

I spent most of today in my craft room again (neglecting the housework), I did manage a few creations, one that I will share with you today & the others I will share over the next week or so.

After seeing seeing Gretchen Clark make a boxy banner on her blog using a square spellbinders die to get the lovely points. I decided to have a go at creating a wine bottle tag, OMG it was super easy & the square die gives such a nice finish (you could possibly hand cut it if you needed to).

I embossed the Christmas Tree in silver & mounted it onto a scallop circle in Night of Navy & then adhered it to my bottle tag & finished it off with some satin ribbon.

I also made a card to go with the above, except I am not overly happy with it may have to have another go tomorrow.
