Treat bag!

Kelleigh has these cute little treat bag templates out at The Digi Chick! I used Pamela Donnis's Collage Cuts Alpha and her School Stuff kit! I made this little bag for my daughter who is starting school for the first time this week!! I figured I would put a few little treats in it and maybe a picture of Mommy and Daddy in it so she doesn't feel so sad to leave us!

Bloom Box.....

Hey everyone! I have a cute new project today and the best part is, there is a TUTORIAL for it!! I made a tut for this but you have to head over to Kelleigh's blog and she'll tell you where to check it out! It's called a mini bloom box and I used the template by Kelleigh Ratzlaff! She really does amazing work! Plus, her templates are so much fun to work with! Here is my box.....

Hybrid Ornament!

Kelleigh is doing 30 ornaments in 30 days to show you all how you can make some awesome hybrid projects just in time for the holidays! These will make great gifts or even decor for your house! I used the Perfect Pumpkin Template by Kelleigh. Paper used is by Kelley Mickus from her Nov Grab Bag. I just placed the paper over the template and printed it out on regular matte photo paper. I cut out the template and assembled it. The only tricky part was stringing the large beads through the ornament. I made a slit in the bottom of the template and gently glided it all the way through to the top. That was honestly the hardest part! hehe! So, once it was assemebled and all the edges were glued together, I adorned it with some pretty jewels and a nice big fat ribbon on top! I can't wait to put this on my Christmas tree! I hope you enjoyed this cute little project! Stay tuned for some awesome new things to come and some more awesome ornament ideas!

Today I want to show you my newest creation using her "Jewelry Box" Template and it's available at Shabby Pickle Designs!!! Don't worry though, it will still be released at The Digi Chick after this month is over!

Here is my version of it! I used Shabby Princess's Kit Festival for the box.

The little flowers are made using other papers in the "Festival" kit. I just cut them out into flowers and the added a little mod podge to them and curled up the edges to resemble flowers. I added a button and a sweet little tag with my initial on it! This is what it looks like when you open it! You can put so many little things in here and it would make a great gift to someone! I hope you've enjoyed my little creation! Now hop on over to the other ladies blogs to check out what else is new with Kelleigh and her amazing designs!

Perfect Pumpkin!!!

I am SOOO excited to be joining another hybrid team!!! Kelleigh Ratzlaff has graciously allowed me to be on her CT ever since I became addicted to hybrid projects! Don't get me wrong, I still love regular scrapping but I love getting my hands dirty and creating beautiful pieces of work that I can decorate my house or give gifts with!! Anyway, my first project was to make this adorable pumpkin box using the Perfect Pumpkin Tempate. I decided to go all out and make a centerpiece for my dining room table! I gathered some sticks in the yard and glued them together, made my little boxes, added a few leaves and voila! Here is my new autumn centerpiece! I love the way it turned out! Head on over to The Digi Chick to pick up this template! It's perfect for autumn!
