"Spidey & Batgirl" aka Caden & Deianiera

You know those "Hi, I'm a Mac, and I'm a PC" commercials? That was my inspiration for this project. I made this frame for my brother-in-law, Brian, for Christmas. This is just a plain wooden $1 frame from Michaels that I painted black and covered in spiderweb paper. I sanded the edges, and cut the letters using my Cricut. For the sayings, I printed those out on my computer, and then made "talk bubbles."

Snowflake card











Features: S4-124 Classic scalloped circles--Lg. (Spellbinder's die), Just Rite stamps "A Merry Little Christmas," pearls & ribbon.

Poinsettia card











Features: S4-219 Nested Poinsettias & S5-019 Labels 8 (Spellbinder's dies), stickles, christmas print paper & stamp.

I love these stamps!!! The stamp set is from CTMH, "Ms. Holiday Cheer," as is the liquid glass and flock. Chunk glitter is from SU.
I used copic markers to color the images; and stickles, beads, ribbon and brads to dress it up...and give it some bling. :)

6x6 mini Thaksgiving page

This mini album page features the Spellbinder's die: S4-168 Large Labels. It is the frame around the picture. For this page we used 2 different printed papers, ribbon and buttons.

The picture is of my daughter, Deianiera when she was about 1 year old.














6x6 mini Christmas page

Since I did a picture of my daughter, this page is of my son, Caden.

This page has rhinestones, stickles glitter, ribbon, and of course Spellbinders dies. This time we used S4-085 Snowflake Wonder and S3-150 Ribbon Tag trio. (This is a set of 3 tags, previously I used one on the treat box).

Stampin' Up club projects

These were the projects we made at out last Stampin' Up club meeting. I love the dove stamp set (I had to buy it). The ornament is made using a paper punch. You just use ribbon, glue and beads, and put it all together. I really enjoyed this project! Thanks Karen for sharing your wonderful ideas.

Stampin Up Club card exchange

This card was quick and simple! I glued thanksgiving paper to my card, added eyelets to the corners, cut out a tag (and wrote Give Thanks), tied it to the pumpkin using hemp, and used my Spellbinders die: S4-227 Nested Pumpkins (this is the largest one). I then added "lines" to my pumpkin using brown chalk and a q-tip. :)

"Halloween card & 6x6 mini album page"

This card features Spellbinder's die: S4-235 Fancy Tags. For the ghost I used white felt (cut out a ghostly shape), added stickles to the outer edge (halloween pack had purple, orange and black), and wiggly eyes. For the tag I used a halloween stamp and rhinestones.



This is a picture of my husband, Greg. He was the "Mad Scientist" for Halloween, showing all the kids how to make slime.

For the mini album page, I used a versamark pad to stamp my saying and bats, onto the purple paper. I added different papers, black ric-rac and rhinestones, and black photo corners to hold the picture into place. The tag is made using Spellbinders die: Nest-007 Nested Long Classic Rectangles. I couldn't find a number for this one because I have the Nested 4 pack. You can buy it seperately though.

Just a note.......

For those of you that like the Nested Pumpkins (S4-227) and the Nested Maple Leaves (S4-228) that I've used, they are only available until the 30th of November. They are part of Spellbinder's Seasonal Collection.

I designed this card for the Crafty Secrets challenge featured on Split Coast Stampers awhile ago....but then my computer died! :( So, I never got to enter it. But here it is for you to see.

I just used some scrap paper and lace (to make the flag), and I used my crop-o-dile to set eyelets, then added some hemp to that. For the maple leaf I used Spellbinders: S4-228 Nested Maple Leaves and I added some Stickles to that. The moose tag is C.S. that I covered in liquid glass, and adhered with pop up dots.

"Pumpkin treat box & gift tag"








The treat box was made using an "open handle box template' and Spellbinder's die: S3-150 Ribbon Tag Trio and S4-102 Fall Harvest. We chalked around all the pieces and used ribbon glue to adhere the ribbon to the box.


For the gift tag we used Spellbinders die: S4-227 Nested Pumpkins. Chalk was again used around the edges (I lvoe chalk). Use a paper punch, thread some embroidery floss through the hole, and you have a gift tag. :)

Yes, the class on the 13 is a repeat. I did not have a big turnout for the first class, and I've had requests to re-do it since some people were unable to attend. So, we're doing it again.

Also, you may have noticed the info. for the class on the 20 is blank. I am in the process of coming up with an idea to do for that one. If anyone has specific requests for projects, let me know. I'll see what I can do to accomadate that. As always...projetcs will be made using Spellbinder's Wizard and Dies.

Well, I really do have pictures to post---I'm just having trouble figuring out the new computer and it's photo editing software. :) So, as soon as I solve that problem I will have more pics to post. Until then... here is the latest class times for my Creative Crafts class at Hobby Lobby.

Creative Crafts (Card making class 2)

The sunflower card features #S4-202 Deckled rectangles ~ Lg & S5-004 Sunflower Garden (I just used the sunflower and leaf).

For this card, the sunflower was made using mulberry paper---it is awesome to chalk on! Also used were: clear jewlery bags, sunflower seeds & magic mesh.

The apple tree card features #S4-124 Classic Scalloped Circles ~ Lg & #S4-114 Classic Standard Circle ~ Lg.

This card features "sewing scraps"---bias tape, lace & buttons, stuff everyone has, but maybe has not thought of using on a card. For the "fall leaves" effect I used Marvy Markers to color the leaves different shades. (You can also just use green to help balance all the red).
