Box Challenge

Good afternoon everyone!

Today I joined in on MOMO's challenge. If you do not follow her blog you definitely should! She is so amazing at what she does and is such an inspiration. I have been following her for a couple months now and she has quickly become one of my favorites!

Anyway, the challenge is to create a treat box or bag. I have NEVER made a box or bag so this was fun for me! Here it is..

Box-Tags, bags boxes and more. I think the box had a square window and I took it out and put in a snowflake :]

Ribbon - Satin ribbon from Joann's

Paper - My minds eye (THIS AWESOME STACK IS THE ONE I'M GIVING AWAY! PLEASE CHECK MY OLDER POST :] )

Stamp - PK everyday (need some more of these! lol)

Thanks for checkin it out!

Ribbon Challenge!

Happy Monday everyone! I hope everyone enjoyed their long holiday weekend! I did, maybe a little too much! Now I need to get back in the gym and get back to eating right :]

Before I get to my post please visit my previous post to see what Im giving away and to hopefully join the challenge :]

So I decided to join in a challenge at Fantabulous Cricut. The challenge was to make something using ribbon! Not so hard since 90% of what I create has ribbon! lol But none the less it was still fun!

This is a card I created for my nieces 2nd birthday! They moved to Hawaii earlier this year so I wanted to make it super special!

All cuts including card base is from Birthday Bash! My new fav!

Stamp - Scrappy Moms sweet somethings

Ribbon - Generic from Walmart

Paper - DCWV stash

I also thought Id share a few pictures from my holiday weekend!

Here is my brother and I waiting ouside of Target on black friday. We got there at midnight on Friday and it was sooo coold! got to mid 20's!

Giveaway!

Happy Thanksgiving Eve to everyone! Im sure everyone is busy preparing and spending time with family! And hopefully getting some great photos! Thanksgiving has inspired me to scrap some photos that are just waiting to be made in to a beautiful page. I have recently gotten in to making cards but first and foremost Im a layout making gal :] I was doing scrapbooking layouts when I was little with stickers and construction paper! Ive come pretty far since then! I also like to make my scrapbooks in chronological order! I'm sure I'll throw that out the window one day! lol Here are some layouts Ive made...

I also bought a couple things at Michaels today I thought Id share

This paper is amazing! I loovvee it!!

I love it soo much I thought Id give away a pack!!

So basically Im kinda going to do a challenge.

I challenge you to make a layout of some old pictures that have been waiting to be put in your scrapbook :] If you dont do layouts then just make a card for someone special. Then please leave a comment with the link to your project! Im not going to judge on the project I will just do a random pick of the comments but I thought it would be fun to have a little challenge and see everyones project!

Ill pick a winner next Friday, December 3rd!

Good luck and hope you have a Happy Thanksgiving!

One of those days..

Its one of those days that my brain just doesnt want to do anything!! It took me forever to do anything today! lol! I did get in my craft loft for a little but it was mostly spent watching the DIY network and planning how I am going to decorate my new house! lol! o well, everyone has these days! Well since I dont have any projects today here is some pics of my craft loft.

Here is the view from my stairs
