Christmas crafting for my co-workers 2017

Welcome Back!
With my new, beautiful crafting space installed and begging to be broken in, I got right to work! I pulled out all my Christmas stuff and decided on a combination of cards and tags as gifts this year. Take a look:
 I have tons of room for my cricut, so I went shopping for some adorable SVG's. I am so in love with this penguin!
Ok, my second favorite SVG. This snowman is SO cute!!

 Mark created the Santa hats as a SVG for me. I cut them out of red and green paper and made them double sided! They were my favorite tags this year.
 I came across a few of my cards from a few years back, and wanted to play with these stamps again. They are fool proof, and beautiful. I enjoy adding ribbon and fibers on my cards. Not many crafters do.


I am totally in love with my new craft space. It makes everything SO much more enjoyable and space is not as much of struggle to craft. More to come!

Merry Christmas!

Merry Christmas!
My husband asked what I would like for Christmas this year. Before I could answer, he walked me to my craft room and said "I'm building you a craft bench. No more folding and card tables for you!" and walked away. And that is exactly what he did! Take a look:

These are actually 2 pieces connected together. Each are on wheels and can be re-arranged as my needs grow or change. Mark did mention that they could be work benches for him down the road. (I don't think so, buddy! lol)

I love all this space. I had a bit of trouble using the drawers and cupboards to their fullest. They are really deep, and crafting supplies are in many multiple shallow containers. I am still playing with my storage. I love that my CPU is hidden in the far left cupboard, and he even mounted my monitor on the wall!  More to come!

Snowfake Easel Card by Bird Revisited

Hello again,
In my search for inspiration for gifts for the holidays, I ran across Bird's snowflake easel card from a few years ago. I decided to see if I could locate the file in my archives, and when I couldn't, I simply located it again on Bird's site and downloaded it again.  :) Gotta love technology!

I decided to make it a bit smaller this time around. Aren't they sweet? They will make nice gifts. Here is the link to the .svg file if you want it. CLICK HERE.


Supplies:
Stamps: BE JOYFUL - Simon Says stamp "Big Scripty Holiday Greetings"
Paper: Blue winter wonderland cardstock from paper pack
Ink: Black
SVG file from link above
Rhinestones adhered with glue

Holidays are coming!

Hello Everyone,
I have been busy in my craft room. I have no idea what blogger has been doing in my absence, but I see some things have changed.

First, I made some sweet gift bags for Halloween. I wanted to share them with you. I saw the .svg file on sale from SVGCUTS.com, and I had to clean up my craft room and get crafting!


My co-teachers loved them! I had so much fun making these that I began plotting for the holidays!  More to come!
