Art Projecets Update

It's the last day of the Month, so I thought I would show you a few projects I have made. June was super busy for me with travel, company and reading (cause the next book in my favorite series came out) so I haven't been as many Art projects. I did sign up for a Christmas bazaar in December, so I have to get busy making some things to sale.
Here is some blocks and bookmarks that I made to sale as well as a couple of cigar boxes with 3d bluebonnets

Gift Giving Series: Napkins


 This last gift in the series is the most complex, but still a simple project and don't worry no sewing involved. I had a couple of napkins left from another project I did and decided to make some rolled flowers to attach to them. I simply cut some scrap felt in circles, tore some strips of CTMH Jubilee fabric and hot glued them into rolled flowers. You can find all kinds of tutorial on fabric flowers on you-tube. I hot glued the flowers and burlap leaves to the napkin and accented with buttons and brads. Lastly I made a cute little wrap and tag to hold them together.

I hope you have enjoyed this week's gift series. Have a great weekend!

Gift Giving Series: Mini Cards

 This post is a good reminder to look closely at the containers you are about to throw out! This clear box is acually recycled from the Scentsy bath tablets. I_almost_trashed the box, but then I took a closer look at it and peeled the label right off the front.
I made a set of mini cards (2.5"x 3.5") and envelopes (cut on the Artiste Cartridge) that fit perfectly inside. Now these cards are little more involved compared to the other gift items in the series so far, but totally doable!

Gift Giving Series: Necklace and box

 The CTMH jewelry making line is Perfect for gift giving! I had one of these small tins left that I had purchased a few years ago from Papertrey ink- you can still get them from them or Amazon. I just created a scored and folded insert for the box to hold the necklace. This one is ready for the next birthday on my list!

Gift Giving Series: Popcorn Box

For this project I cut a popcorn box (fit to page) from the CTMH Artiste cartridge. I loaded up the box with some travel size bath and body products. A great gift for a birthday or thank you, like this one. I will be giving this one to a friend who will be watering our plants and garden while we go on vacation.

Tiny Camper Card

The smallest camper in the stamp set is my favorite. It's so easy to add to different cards and mini cards.

Camper Birthday Card

It's time again for me to pull out my Camper Crazy stamp and make a few cards. I used this same pattern with the same camper back in February with the Lollydoodle paper. You can see the card here. That one turned out so well that I copied the idea with this card.
