Christmas Ornaments...

Hello all!  I was super excited when a certain package arrived the other day!!  Oh my goodness!!  Post-it Craft Paper!!  This paper is really awesome and I love it!!!  It is so easy to use and looks great!  It really is cut, peel and stick!!  Thank you so much for letting me try out this wonderful product!!

My project this week was to use the Post-it Craft Paper!  So, I used it to personalize ornaments purchased from my Celebrating Homes consultant.  I flipped the letters from the Gypsy Font Shadow so I could use the adhesive side for glitter!  I am beginning to really love glitter!!  It was really easy and quick to do once I figured out which color I could part with...  Just take off the backing and pour your glitter on!!

After glittering, I used clear adhesive dots to attach to plastic paper.  Probably would have been okay without the plastic paper but I thought that it needed to be a little thicker.  The ornament had a raised circle where I wanted to attach the initial.  The finished product looks perfect!!

Another fun project using the Post-it Craft Paper...  Labels!  I love to organize so this was actually the first thing I did after opening the package!!  I used an image from the Imagine More cartridge with patterned paper from the Better Together cartridge.  Love to cache patterns!  The original image is the green label.  I also made smaller labels for the pockets on the inside.  Might be able to see that in a video soon!!!

Thanks for stopping by!!

Have a great weekend!!

Thanksgiving weekend...

Hello all!!!  Hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving!!  We had a fantastic time with both of our families!!  Did a little shopping on Black Friday afternoon!!  Slept in for the first time in years!!!  And I didn't know that Walmart was starting their sale at midnight!!  So, I missed out on the Jolly Holidays Cricut cartridge...  I did get Twinkle Toes cartridge though...  I may go back and get the Inspired Heart cartridge - They were still there last night...  Also, the Expressions were marked down to $150!!  Wow!!

When I got back on Sunday there were a couple of packages waiting for me!!  Shall We Dance and my free Color Ink!!  Lori's Garden arrived last week!!  Can't wait to play!!

Here is my little paper tree...  Just playing around last week!!  

Saw the idea different places online and in a few magazines!!  I've added Stickles and will add some buttons and such probably this week...

Have a great week!!
