Decorate To Celebrate Challenge #110

Happy Wednesday!

Today we start a new challenge over at

Decorate To Celebrate!

I decided to make a new Halloween Decor project.

I had a scrap of wood in the garage that I found

and painted it with black acrylic paint.

I found some cute orange and white chevron paper

in my stash and used Mod Podge to adhere it.

I pulled out my Celebrate to Flourish cartridge

and cut out the "Trick or Treat" and

altered it to fit my block.

I used my Xyron machine to adhere the phrase.

I had some glittery orange tulle that

topped everything off.

Turned out whimsically cute :)

Please join us over at

Decorate To Celebrate this week!

Cookies!

Happy Monday!

Hope you had a great weekend and

are looking forward to this week!

To help "sweeten" things up a bit,

we have a fabulous challenge over at BBTB2!

It's National Pecan Cookie Day and

we want to see projects featuring any type of

Cookie!

So there are some Soda Shops around town where I live

and one of the signature treats is the

"Sugar Cookie" topped with pink frosting.

The Love You A Latte cart has a "donut" cut,

but it sure looks like a Sugar Cookie to me :)

I found some fun paper from DCWV "Nana's Kitchen"

and my sentiment is from My Creative Time.

The ribbon is from American Crafts.

Now I need to run to Slurp for my Jacked Diet Coke

and Sugar Cookie....

Thanks for checkin' in!!!

My Project:

So my Sister has a birthday coming up next month

so I thought I would make her a cute purse and

fill it with either cash or a gift card.

I used Tags, Bags, Boxes, & More 2

and cut the Lipstick Container at 10 1/4.

The paper is from Crete Paper/American Crafts

I used a twisty tie from CTMH as the handle.

I had a cute brad to use for the "snap" and

just added some fun embellishments I had in my stash.

I hope my sister will think this is as cute as I do,

but I'm sure she will like what's inside more :)

Come and join us over at Cut It Up for this fun challenge!

BBTB2 - Use Your Imagination

Happy Monday!

Today over at BBTB2, a new challenge has started

to Use Your Imagination and create a project with

Imaginary Characters :)

Well, I can't think of a more Imaginary Character than

a Robot Maid :)

I don't know about you, but I could definitely handle having

one of these in my life!

I used the Robotz Cartridge for this cut,

paper from DCWV "Nana's Kitchen", and

glitter dots from Recollections.

The sentiment was a Studio G $1 find - love those!

I had a pink sunburst mat in my stash,

and I just ran it through my Cuttlebug

with a Chevron embossing folder.

The ribbon at the bottom is from American Crafts.

I hope that you will join us for this fun challenge

over at BBTB2!

My Project:

So there are 6 days left until NFL kickoff -

SO EXCITED!!!

And my son just had his first Flag Football game last night -

SO FUN!!!

Needless to say Football is on my brain and it's what I

had to base my card on for this challenge :)

I used Life's A Party for the football and phrase cut.

My paper is from a 4x6" Brag Pad

"Little Sport" by Heidi Larsen.

I picked it up in the clearance section of Hobby Lobby :)

I popped the football up on some foam tape

and added a little enamel dot in the bottom corner.

I think I may give this to my son's coach as a thank you

when the season is over.

I hope you will join us over at Cut It Up!

Decorate To Celebrate #108 - Anything Goes

Happy Wednesday!

Welcome to another Anything Goes Challenge over at

Decorate To Celebrate!

Today, I decided to decorate one of my marker bins!

This bin was once a Hot Chocolate Mix Container!

Sorry I didn't have a before pic :(

I upcycled it!

I found some cardstock that I really liked,

of course it would be pink with flowers and have a little sparkle :)

I glued the paper around the container and then

added some fun embellishments!

The butterfly is cut from Art Philosophy

and the flowers are all Prima Flowers.

I added the flat back pearls to the centers.

I hope that you will join us over at Decorate To Celebrate!
