My New Stash!!

It's here, It is finally Here!!!!  A little while ago, I took the plung and ordered some Copic Markers from http://www.oozak.com/ which by the way they are so wonderful over there!  I hummed and haughed since Christmas about getting these markers. I did some research over at ilikemarkers.blogspot.com and decided to just go ahead and order them.  Here they are:

Organizing my Ribbons

I have been reorganizing my scrap room for a while now and I thought I would post a few things on how I am doing! 

I have looked so hard at how I was going to organize my ribbons so they can be moved easily for going to scrap retreats and where they can be easily accessed when I am doing scrapping at home, so this is what I came up with (and I am sorry but I can't remember whose blog I got this idea from!)

So you know those boards you get when you buy packages of paper?  Well I kept them, with the intention of making my own chipboard items but I used some for this idea. 

I cut them into strips of 3 x 6.

Then I wrapped my ribbon around them and used a paper clip to keep the ribbon attached so it won't flop all over the place.

I then punched a hole in the top.  I then hung them up on my wall on a bar with clips I bought from Ikea.

A Few Cards

Sorry for the delay on this post!  Last Friday I attended a scrap night at the local church.  I decided to continue making my cards there as I am preparing for the Focus on Women show.  I thought I would share what I had made with you.

Disney Pixar Cars Birthday Party

My son recently had celebrated his 2^nd birthday and for his party we decided to make it a Disney Pixar Cars theme.  He absolutely loves Cars and Lightning McQueen. 

I had made an invitation to get the party started and handed it out to all my family either physically or through e-mail/facebook.  Here is what it looks like (I have changed all the information to not be correct):

 

I had made him a cars banner of some of his favorite characters including Doc Hudson, Lightning McQueen, Mater, Sally and Mack. 

I printed four (4) different types of paper at my local printers and cut out two (2) flag portions from each paper.  Then I used my punch to punch out the slits on each side of the flags.  I printed out a page of all his favorite characters and cut them out.   I found some of these characters quotes from the movie and typed them up and printed them on cardstock. I then chalked the edges and placed them together.  I think it turned out really well.

I made cupcake toppers for the cupcakes I had made for him. 

I had gotten my friend to make a Cars fondant cake and he was so excited to see it!

I also made a few things from my circut cartridge to put on the wall for him. 

 

Overall he had a blast and loved all of it!  I think I am in for it next year!

Baby Shower Thank you Cards

Just wanted to show you a few things I am up to:

I have created two different Thank you shower cards.  They are both 4 x 5 in size and come blank inside and with an envelope.  They are $3.50 each.  They are not yet on my store but if you are interested, please let me know on the comments.  A discount is applied when 20 or more are ordered.  I can also create one with certian colors as well.

Chocolate Bar Wrapper!

Hi there,

I had been asked by my cousin to make a Twilight chocolate bar wrapper for her daughter's birthday in a couple weeks.  These can be used for party favors with any occasion.  They just fit right over a normal sized hersey's chocolate bar (which aren't included).  These sell for approximately $1.20 each wrapper.  Custom orders are welcome!
