Ok, so I got a little carried away with these ribbon flowers and made a few extra. Then I experimented with some different widths of ribbon. Here's a card I made with a few of them. The larger flower was made from some 1 1/2" wide satin ribbon. I LOVE how it turned out! I added a fancy brad in the middle for a little accented touch. What do you think? I'm thinking they would also make great hair clips, brooches, or embellishments on a little handbag! … [Read more...]

Tutorial Tuesday-Father’s Day Shirt and Tie Project
I probably should have titled this post something like What I'm doing instead of packing for the move in 4 days, or maybe What I'm doing now is way more fun than packing, but since it's Tuesday, a tutorial it is! This is a new project template that can be used in conjunction with the storage tins used for the Classy Dad Kit and the Tool Kit. This free template has two options for you! Here are the main items assembled to put together the kit. The free PDF template (see below for the download link), silver tin, a few coordinating papers, and don't forget the chocolate Riesens! Just cut out the pieces you'd like to use and you're ready … [Read more...]
Took Kit Project Tin
Here's the kit for those DIY dads! I had lots of fun with this kit! There's lots of little tool icons and the wood texture was fun to work with also. As with the release yesterday there's a standard version and a custom version which lets you type in all your own sentiments. All you need is candy, tins, and the kit! The both kits include two cards, the tin cover with three alternate sentiments, and one sheet of designed labels. You don't need any special photo editing software to add the text either if you purchase the custom one! I tried to make it super easy for you! The labels are standard Avery 8160 series address labels. I … [Read more...]
Tutorial Tuesday-Classy Father’s Day Project
Woo Hoo! I'm so excited for this new project release! You remember the fun Valentine's Day Tin project? Well how about a Father's Day one? This 3 page PDF includes two cards, one tin cover with 3 alternate sentiments, and a full page of labels. I also found that the labels will go well over Reisen's as well as Hershey's Nuggets! All for only $3! (Don't forget to use the coupon code MOVE09 to get an extra 20% off!) The only thing the kit doesn't include are the tins which are available here. (The coupon code is good for those too!) Lots of you requested a way to add or change the sentiments so I've made an extra special PDF for you! … [Read more...]
Father’s Day Gift Container
Here's a quick hexagon box template that was well loved last year: 1. Download template here. Find a wood grain image online that you like. I like to look at Wilsonart Laminates , or Treefrog Veneers. Once you find an image that you like, right click on the image and save it to your computer. 2. Print the wood grain image on photo paper or cardstock, then print the templates onto the wood grain. (Any other pattern will work too!) 3. Then follow the directions on the template to finish up! If you'd like to do the graduated sizes like shown above, just print at different percentages. Try 85%, 100%, and 120%. Stay tuned this week … [Read more...]
Customizable Mother’s Day Cards Anyone?
Thank you so much to all my testers! I made a few changes based on the feedback I got from you and here's the final product! Download the PDF here. There are two cards on the sheet. Just print on 1 sheet of white cardstock, cut in half, embellish, and you're done! But wait, you might ask why I had some testers test this project out first. It's because the sentiment on the front of the card can be whatever YOU want it to be! (Look for more projects with this feature shortly!) When the PDF opens up, click on the sentiment where it says Type Custom Sentiment Here and type away to your hearts content. These cards will allow you two … [Read more...]

Tutorial Tuesday-Just Because
For some reason Adobe doesn't want to make PDF's for me right now...so while I figure it out tonight and have the download ready to go for you tomorrow (scroll down, Adobe likes me again and the links are up!), here's a sneak peek of the project: Tomorrow I'll have the bag topper and candy wrapper labels for your downloading pleasure! Edited: Ok, download the two PDF's and you're good to go! I wrapped the labels around Hershey's Nuggets so all you'll need is a bag of those and you're ready! The instructions for the bag toppers are in the download and I just added a simple silver rhinestone for something extra. Here's the links! … [Read more...]
