A Beautiful Treat Bag Gift Card Holder        I had seen this really cool gift card holder tutorial on YouTube done by Buckeye Inklings and I loved it and wanted to make one!! It was perfect because I had a birthday card I needed to do... better late than never 😉 This is what I came up with...      I did use all retired products but the recipient isn't a stamper so she isn't going to care 😂      I wanted this set all last catalog and I finally got it just a couple months before it retired!! I'm super glad I did cause I have a few tea drinkin' friends I can make things for with this set.      Even though I am a demonstrator, I think it's a good idea to use retired things sometimes either by themselves or with current things because your customers will still use them... if they can't continue to use what they have... they may not want to buy more because they think they have enough.      I think...

     Yesterday I spent the day getting a few things done that a couple friends had asked for. I love spending as much time in my craft room as I can, so when friends ask if I would make them something... I am more that happy too! 😊      The first project was for 3 large tags that were going to be used on her kids stockings. She wanted them pretty big, the size of your hand so I just cut a 8.5 x 11 piece of CS in quarters and did them that size! I think they turned out really nice and she was pleased with them so I was happy.      As for usual, I got my inspiration for them from Pinterest! You can see the Original Tag there and also find my board with all my other projects I have done.      The other project from yesterday was 5 bags like I had done for our November Group. She wanted different ones though, not all the same. I added a little sparkle too by spraying them with the mist we had made with the old glimmer p...

    I managed to start off my November pretty good, I got part of what we will be doing for group done but I just couldn't get into my card room to get the "something else" I wanted to do. I wanted to do Mini Pizza Poxes but silly me didn't have enough... Why would you only order 1 package 😠  I new I wanted to use the snowflakes so I went on Pinterest to get my inspiration and I found a few things. I found a card that I liked  that also used the Carols Of Christmas Bundle but I wanted to do a Gift Card Holder. I know the Pillow Boxes are really cute but I just want in the mood for that... Off to YouTube I went and found the card that I did ! I'm not sure what everyone calls it but It's kind of like a match book so that's what I call it.      Here is a Photo of the card and one of the bags we are doing this week during our last group meeting of the year! Hard to believe 2017 is just about over... Feels like not that long ago I was having ...
