Bee HappiLeaCraftin with Tamara

      I have had a project like this on my mind for months and finally got around to working on it!! I am really happy with how it turned out... It is however the second attempt though! 😂 I mis-measured and had it practically together before I realized it so had to start over.      Here is a look at how it looks empty so you can see the matting inside. It's just plain seeing as it will be full of projects so no need for anything fancy. It is just for me and as of yet there is no tutorial because I apparently can't measure so good 😂 some of the parts are a little crooked! I have been asked for a tutorial by a few crafters so I may think about doing one in time... what do you think?      If you have been following me lately, you know I am all about the Bees 🐝! The slogan for the town I live in was changed a few years ago but it will always bee the same to me... The Land of Rape & Honey.      I have already made a few Bee T...

Here is my version of the 1st folio in Vanessa Peter's Forever & Always folio Mini Album Series! She has done a series of 3 folios, they are so fun and really quite easy to make. She will also be adding a 4th folio and a box to store all of them in when she is able to get back to her crafting. I received the cutting guide in the second email I received after I had signed up to her email list. I don't know if you sign up after, if you will be sent this cutting guide but I do know you receive a Note Pad Holder one for sure.   I have to admit... I really like her style of folios and I think I may try a few more using her method! This folio is Style #2 and I think this one is my favorite!

Today was cute little Easter Treat Holder Day 2!! I spent the day in my craft room making some adorable little Easter Treat Holders to use up some of my Retired DSP. The first project for the day was this that basically follows the same basic design as the Valentine Treat Holders Susan Lavasser did on her YouTube Channel. I had done another one but it is basically the same as this one and I liked this one much better! the other one didn't use any DSP so looked to plain 😏 The DSP for this one is the Retired Retro Fresh DSP from a waaayyy back! 😄 This was the second project of the day. I have already done 2 like these but a friend wanted one for her Grand Daughter for Easter and she loves black and pink so I used the Retired DSP, Pop of Pink to do this one. And lastly for the day is just a cute little bag that I made to just fit a 3x6  Gusseted Cellophane bag in to protect the DSP from the Chocolate... or vice versa! 😂 I used the Gift B...

     I was super excited to get at decorating treats for Easter after I did the adorable ones for Valentine's Day! I had come across some chocolate treats along the same line as the ones I decorated for Sweet Hearts Day and I bought 1 of each of the little critters, there were 4 so that wasn't bad. I got some other treats to do up treat bags of some sort too so I am excited for Easter now! I will actually have things done ahead of time!      I didn't make it to my craft room on Saturday but I sure did Sunday and I was bound and determined to get something done! And that I did!! I don't always get a lot done but if I make one thing, I'm happy. I managed to get 2 of the little Treat Bags done.      I don't have a lot of DSP that could be used for an Easter project but I found this stuff and thought it was perfect! It is the Sweet Sorbet DSP that I think was a Sale-A-Bration years ago. Unfortunately I went through the entire package before get...
