Z & S

This photo of my son and his girlfriend was taken at an outdoor wedding of a relative this past summer and I scrapped it into a 12 x 12 very colorful page. I cut the striped paper into strips and did a basket weave in the bottom portion of the page, added flowers and their first initials.

Jayhawks Gift in a Bottle & Bouquet

My son is a huge Jayhawks fan so for his birthday I stuffed a t-shirt and some other goodies inside this 2-liter bottle. You should have seen him trying to figure out how I got all of that inside. The secret, you ask? After removing the label cut a large "C" into the bottle, stuff, tape shut and relabel with your own cardstock. This is an idea I got from another crafter's blog. Then I made a Jayhawks Birthday Bouquet.

Sour Cream Halloween Packets

I made several 'Sour Cream' packets for Trick or Treaters. Super simple!! I cut my 8 1/2 x 11 inch paper into four equal pieces and used my ATG gun to tape along three sides. I rolled the two long sides together and secured. I squeezed one end of the short side together and filled with candy. I closed the open end in the opposite direction and then I used my crimper to secure each short end.

2009 Christmas Card

This was my Christmas card for 2009. I love the way the Cuttlebug and the differents folders add so much to plain cardstock. I used the snowflake folder on white cardstock and added a piece of ribbon; then I attached this to my card with my ATG gun; I stamped the snow family on a piece of white cardstock, colored it in with markers and attached it to a piece of red cardstock and used pop dots to attach this to the card. I printed out a page full (around 30) of "Let it Snow" titles using Christmas Snow font I found for free on the Internet and attached that as well and then I added just a touch of Stickles on one of the snowflakes.

These are the Hot Chocolate Sliders I made for all of my Trick or Treaters.
