For my project today, I have made a Flower Gift Tin using patterns from Little Scraps of Heaven Designs.  I used the 'Snow-body Like You' which you can find on the LSHD website here: http://www.littlescrapsofheavendesigns.com/item_498/Snow-body-Like-You.htm  and My Paper Garden 2 which you can find on the LSHD website here: http://www.littlescrapsofheavendesigns.com/item_451/My-Paper-Garden-Vol.-2.htm.  I had so much fun putting this together.  I was going to give it to a friend, but I think I might just keep it myself!Lol! :)

Here's a Close-up!!

Sharing some of my 'Twilight' projects!

Hello everyone! I thought that I would focus on some 'Twilight'-inspired projects this week. My daughters, my sister, and I are all going to see the new movie tomorrow! I'm sooo excited! I have 3 different projects to share with you today. For every project, I used the super cute LSHD Bitten Smitten pattern set.  You can find this pattern on the LSHD website here:  http://www.littlescrapsofheavendesigns.com/item_431/Bitten-Smitten-Collection.htm Thank you for taking the time to come see my creations.....I'm glad you're here! :)

My first project is a 12x12 scrapbook layout.

My 2nd project is a Framed Picture of these same characters that you can hang on your wall!

And, my last project for today is actually 2 different projects, with the same idea! I have made 2 different Car Hanging Mirror decorations.  One is for an Edward fan and one for a Jacob fan.  This idea has been going through my head quite sometime now and I finally decided to let it out today....lol! These are double-sided, and have a spot for a favorite photo (both sides).  They are embellished with paper, ribbon, bottle caps, and a charm.

This one is for an Edward fan! This is not how they would look hanging up, I took both sides apart (they were glued together) and put them side by side to get a good pic.

Here is the one for a Jacob fan:

And here is a picture of what it looks like hanging in a car!

Stay tuned next week, as I have another 'Twilight' project to post that I didn't get done today! Have a great weekend everyone!! :)

Card and matching envelope using LSHD Digi Stamp

Good afternoon all my crafty friends! Here is a card with a matching envelope that I finished up today! I used a digi stamp from LSHD, which I believe was offered as a freebie last year. I added some paper, paper flowers, and a bottlecap charm with a leaf dangling to both the envelope and the card. Then I finished it off by adding a couple die-cut leaves and 2 buttons. Thanks for looking!

Here is a pic of both the envelope(top) and the card (bottom).

Here is a close-up of the card.

Here is a close-up of the envelope:

This last pic is of the sentiment inside the card....I printed it out and then inked the edges and added a leaf die-cut to tie it all together! Thanks for looking!

'Our Little Peanut'-Boy Wood Frame

Thanks for stopping by! Today, I'm sharing a project I did using an 8"x8" wood frame which I found at Michaels craft store.  I painted the wood frame a baby blue color, then covered it in paper and finished by adding a bottlecap/peanut charm. Then I added the super cute peanut paper piecing and title which you can find on Little Scraps of Heaven Designs website here: http://www.littlescrapsofheavendesigns.com/item_405/Our-Little-Peanut-Boy.htm.  This was so much fun to make and I think I will try to get some others done soon as well! These would make some great Christmas gifts!!
                                                            Here is my finished project:

Here is what the frame looked like before I started.  The peg in the pic area is what keeps it up in the back.....I did paint that blue as well!

Here is the finished frame with a different angle:

This is the close-up of the bottlecap/peanut charm:

This last pic is of the back!

This is my very first Blog Hop I have participated in and I am super excited! :)
For my project, I decided to make a wreath for decorating your Halloween Party.  I used a black wreath found at Michaels and paper piecings from LSHD I Want Candy File. You can find that pattern on the LSHD website here: http://www.littlescrapsofheavendesigns.com/item_427/I-Want-Candy.htm . Of course, the paper piecings are made with paper, so this would have to be an indoor decoration, but I think it would be good hanging on the wall above your table for your party!

Here is another project I wanted to share with you as well! It is a candy dish/box! Actually a 4"x4" box that I decorated up with paper and the same paper piecings from the LSHD I Want Candy File. This is actually my Blog Candy.....and it contains candy.....little bags of M&M's actually.  To be entered in for the chance to win this little Halloween box with candy, all you need to do is leave a comment below, and become a fan of mine here on my blog.  I will be drawing a winner on Sunday!!

Thank you everyone for hopping along with us....I am so glad you're here!!!
