Our weather is nasty today so I have some free time to post my weekend stash.First, I am so excited about my treat boxes I am starting with them.I saw this TQ. on “Debbie Olson Blog” and would like to give her credit for it.
So if you have time please check Thinking Inking for full instructions.
First is my Halloween Box
How fun is this?
This is a graphic that I cut down to fit the top of this box.My stamp is from Stampin’ Up. Paper is from “Basic Grey“. Glitter Gems are from “Making Memories”.

Now my Christmas treat Box. (With candy”.)
Paper is from “My Minds Eye”, stamps from “Just Rite”, and Cpoic markers, along with Glimmer Mist.Clear Glitter Gems from Wal-Mart.

Both treat boxes.

Now I would like to Thank Ali Manning for two fun and very easy thank you cards these two cards came from ones that she has posted on her blog, check Ali Manning Blog for instructions.

Now from October/November newsletter, “Texture Duet”. I also added Versa Mark chalked background and Versa Mark resist band. This too has Glitter gems from Making Memories.

Fabric Flower

Drum roll please,….. This is number three of the cards from Paper Craft magazine. Using two Tim Holtz die’s and some Elmer’s Craft Bond, cotton fabric, seed pearls and distressed ink will get you started on making this card.

The embossing folder is from Sizzix, I have added small pearls to the center of the flowers. The inside is just repeating the front.

Enjoy the card. Stampin’ Hugs Vada

Houndstooth “Sing Anyway”.

As I said yesterday, I am trying to make a few of these quick cards from Paper Craft Magazine and Card Maker magazine.
This is card number two from Paper Craft magazine. With so much interest in Embossing Folder as of late I thought this was way too easy to pass up. I used Sahara Sand Versa Magic chalk ink to darken this plain tan cardstock with a touch of Jumbo Java chalk ink to highlight the cardstock, then embossed it and sanded off some of the color. Thus this faded, weathered look.

My die is from Tim Holtz and a Spellbinders die was used. Sing Anyway is from TAC. Printed paper is from Graphic 45, ribbon is from Michaels Dollar Spot. Thanks again, and if I get time tomorrow I’ll post a fabric flower card.

Until then Stampin’ Hugs Vada
