Summer Projects

Summer is almost done, and soon I will go back to work. I'm glad I have some time to get ready for my fall craft fairs. Here are some projects that I've done.

I LOVE how this card came out. The stamp is from Impress Stamps here in Washington.

The Cougars are from Washington State University. These are 3x3 cards with envelopes.

If I have WSU, I definitely have to have cards from the University of Washington, home of the Huskies. Otherwise I'll get in trouble with my customers! 

I'm a HUGE coffee drinker, so I need to have some cards with coffee cups. These are perfect!

Finally, I have these gift card boxes. Right now I am working on Christmas ones.

Well, gotta go. I have couple more weeks before I go back to work. Enjoy the rest of the summer, everyone!

A Purse for a Special Little Girl

A friend's daughter celebrated her 10th birthday a couple of weeks ago and I decided to make her a little paper purse to put her gift in.

Her party has a shabby chic theme so I used some "vintagey" paper, plus some ribbons and beads.

It's summer so I am trying to get stuff done, getting ready for my fall craft fairs. I'll post projects as soon as I can. Have a fun summer, everyone!

Missing the Seahawks...

I miss football. I especially miss watching the Seahawks play. That's why when I saw this card I knew I had to make one with the Seahawks on it.

Can't wait for football season to start!

Spring Craft Fair

Hello everyone! I know, I know...it's been a while, but I'm here. I just finished my first spring craft fair and I would like to share some projects that I did.

I have a lot of succulents at home, and so I decided to package and sell them. I made a basket for each one and decorated each one differently. Gina K Designs has a great, detailed tutorial on how to make these.

I also made these purses which are bigger that the ones I had in previous posts. This uses an 8.5 x 11 sheet of paper. I found the measurements in Silvey's Craftroom.

I've had these light bulb containers for a while and when I saw this stamp from My Favorite Things, I had a "light bulb" moment (ha!) and decided to put them together. This is the result.

I've seen these key fobs before (I actually use one) and they are so easy to make. All the materials are available at Etsy, and all I had to do was to put them together. They are a best seller! Of course, I have to use ribbons from two of my favourite things...the Seahawks and Starbucks!

Finally, I LOVE these popsicle greeting cards. They take a bit more work than the other items, but I think it's worth it!

Hope you like these projects!!!
