A Cute Little Desk Caddy

A Cute Little Desk Caddy Project Cased from Vanessa Stokes!

     I seen her post her cute little project on the Facebook group for us Demonstrators and thought it would be a perfect Draw Prize! I wasn't sure what I would give it for but I decided that for everyone who purchased the Everything Is Rosy Product Medley during the month of May, I would enter their names in a draw to win it! 
     These are all my most favorite adhesives! I use everyone of these in pretty much every project I make, so I thought it was perfect for a draw!
     I don't know if anyone is as excited about the new Product Medley Stampin' Up! has during the month of May... I think because it is only available for a month or while supplies last, everyone is a little leary. That and they love all the accessories and would like to replenish them as they get used but seeing as it is all sold together, they are leaning away from purchasing it! I on the other hand CAN NOT WAIT to order it even though there are those little down falls to it! It is all just so beautiful and I will get a ton of projects out of it! 😉 
     I figured it out by just guessing at what each item would cost and came up with a total of $148.25, individually priced... Sold as the Product Medley at $109, you are saving more than 25%! I think that is a great deal!! 

     You can see in this photo (kind of) how I made it... It's not the best photo but it shows enough as to how it is put together!
     There is a base box which I cut to 6" x 9" and scored at 2" all the way around. I made a second smaller box that the Glue Dots are in and it measured 5 1/4" x 7 1/8" and was also scored at 2" all the way around. I then cut a strip 2 1/2" x 5 7/8" and scored at 1/2" on the 2 short sides and 1 long side, mitered the corners and adhered it just behind the smaller box.
     I tried to find her blog or this project on Pinterest, but no luck! She didn't have instructions so I just made it with my own measurements. Mine does look a little bigger than hers but I really like how it turned out! I am really pleased with it and I hope the recipient is as happy with it as I am 😉

Fancy Fold Card

Image
I'm not sure what to call this card as the one I found wasn't in English! I was surfing on Pinterest one day and found an amazing card!! Of coarse I re-pinned it for later cause I had to give it a try myself. The only problem is, its in another language and the measurements are in cm instead of inches. I really wanted to try the card so I printed out her template and tried to convert cm to inches. I made a card with my dimensions and I am fairly pleased with it.   I tried to go fairly simple on the front as the inside is a little bulky. I used a Mojo Monday sketch for the inspiration on for front of the card.  Sketch 319     For the inside I pretty much used her layout but just used different paper.  I am in the Holiday spirit so really wanted it to be a Christmas card.  I haven't used the specialty paper in the Winter Frost Specialty DSP yet so thought it would work perfectly.   She had a template designed, but of coarse it was in her language and i

Recipe Book Box

Image
      So it seems August is Blog catch up month for me! I get crafting and forget to do the little things that I like to do to keep my fans updated!! My apologies!!  A look at 1 Recipe Page or Insert      This was supposed to be another Cinch Book but it seems I got a little carried away... AGAIN! I made it a few paged too big so it got WAY to chunky to be bound! So... I am going to make a box to house it and a couple extra inserts and recipe cards.       I made 6 pages or inserts now and each one has spots for 26 recipe cards, 4 of which are digitally added with the digital collection I used. The Grandma's Pantry Collection my Nitwit Collections. If you choose to make the project as I did, you will have a recipe box that will hold at least 154 special recipes.       I have a few ideas rolling around in my head for the box part of this project so hopefully I can get at it soon so I can post it. I'm certain I will like how it turns out in the end 😊      I have kept a few spots
