TSG86- Button It Up
This week's challenge over on the TSG blog is all about buttoning it up! Your projects that is ;)
Ok so here is the timeline- I volunteered in Kylie's class on Tuesday, Chloe's on Wednesday and started this project on Thursday evening with the hopes of finishing it in time for the girls to give it to their wonderful teachers. Well, that took a tad bit longer than I had thought. Once I got started, I just could not make myself stop and ended up staying up throughout the whole night. Literally. I didn't go to bed until 9 AM the next morning lol! Luckily my wonderful husband was able to fill in for me and get the girls to school so I could go to sleep :) I love how these turned out and the teachers loved them too and that's what really matters right?
Picture of the finished baskets
Close ups of the two tag books (the only embellishment that I used was buttons so that is how it fits into this week's challenge lol!)
I also made Kylie's teacher from last year a pretty gift basket that included the Believe In You stamp set, a set of card bases in all different colors, cardstock in the same colors cut into 4.25x5.5 pieces, a couple of acrylic blocks to fit the images in the stamp set, a VersaFine cube, hand made card and our holiday family photo. I would have taken a picture but I was waaaay beyond tired at this point lol!!

Holiday Sparkles
I wanted to pop in to show you guys a project that I did yesterday. This is the first wreath I have ever made and I love how it turned out! My husband however, is not thrilled that I managed to get glitter everywhere in just about every room in our house lol!
I knew that I wanted a pink and silver wreath but I couldn't find one so I decided that I would just make one instead. Here is how I made it-
Silver sparkly-circle-branch-things: 5 @ $1 ea.
Silver bells (pack of 9): $1
Sparkle Poinsettia flowers (set of two): $1
Silver bunch of holly leaves: $1
I couldn't find any sparkly pink decorations so I decided to improvise and make my own. This is where the mess began ;)
*First I took my pack of bells I picked up at Dollar Tree and sprayed them each with spray adhesive (LOVE that stuff!!) and then lightly sprayed acrylic sealer over it to kind of set the glitter to keep it from coming off.
*I then took the bunch of holly leaves and cut the leaves off the branch thing they came on and giving them the same glitter treatment.
*While I was waiting for those to dry, I dipped the tips of some of the wreath 'branches' in Aleen's glue and then dipped them in pretty white glitter.
*Then I ate dinner while I waited for that to dry ;)
*Had Matt put the girls to bed so I could keep working lol!
*Added my sparkly-silver-circle-branch-things by using twist ties (that actually were used to secure them to the packaging they came on) to secure them to the wreath frame.
*Did the same with the poinsettia flowers
*Tied the bells onto the wreath branches with the silver string that came with them
*Used green embroidery thread to tie onto the end of the leaves and then tied them onto the wreath branches as well.

Shimmery Seasons Greetings
The weekend is here and can you believe that Christmas is just around the corner? I keep thinking that it is still the beginning of December and when I see the date I start to panic because I have yet to send out my Christmas cards lol! I know, horrible.
I wanted to pop in and show you guys another card that I made from one of my new favorite papers from Paper Temptress called Nero Incandescent. This paper is gorgeous and I love, love, LOVE it! It is a nice weight cardstock that can be used for card bases, it's textured and has this beautiful gold shimmer to it that adds a great dimension to your cards!! I stamped the images onto the Poison Ivory cardstock (which also has a beautiful pearly shimmer to it) with Momento Tuxedo Black ink, heat set and colored with Copic markers before cutting out and adhering to the card base with dimensionals.
I used the newly released stamp set Seasons Greetings designed by Chris Dark. I love the style of these images and they are so fun to color!

TSG84- Bring On The Bling!
This week's challenge over on the TSG Blog is brought to us by our featured Trendsetter Jodi! It's all about the bling baby!! From glitter to rhinestones and everything in between, use them to glam up your cards and projects this week.
I chose to create some cards to go with the picture cards that will be going out with this year's family Christmas letter. I've been dappling a bit in photography for awhile now and this picture is one of my favorites from a shoot I did with the girls about a month ago :)

Kylie's Kards (and Chloe's & Kayla's too)
I hope that you are all enjoying your weekends so far! Today I have some exciting news to share- my oldest daughters are following in their mama's footsteps and are in the process of becoming professional card makers :) A couple of weeks ago I received an email asking if Kylie (7) and Chloe (6) would be interested in doing some design work for Paper Temptress! Paper Temptress carries a ton of different cardstocks in all types of weights, colors, textures, etc. Check out the website and have fun oogling all of the gorgeous papers and cardstocks.
Here are a few cards that the girls made last night. From left to right we have Chloe, Kylie and Kayla (4). They had way too much fun going through mommy's stamps looking for just the right image ;) The stamp sets used are: Spread Your Wings, Seasons Greetings, Penguin Pals, Rejuvenate and Snowy Days.
Aren't these cardstocks gorgeous?? Most of these that I have shown are from the Mica/Metallic line but I also have Sparkle Blanc and Nero Incandescent too. And if you only buy one sheet of cardstock make it one from the Velvet line!!! Oh my goodness. This paper feels like butter in your hands! I can't guarantee that I will actually create with it because all I really want to do is carry it around in my pocket so I can hold it whenever I want lol! It isn't called the Paper Temptress for nothing ;)
