Coffee & Hearts Shaker Card

We all have our coffee loving friends, right?  Well, I have a coffee loving and crafting best friend.  Her name is Nancy.  I made this card just for her, on her birthday yesterday.  We are both super busy ladies but we try to make time now and then to get together for a cup o' joe or a crafting session.  It doesn't happen nearly as often as I would like!  We did, however, head to a concert last night to see Air Supply.  They were awesome!  Alas, that is a story for another day.

I like to think all my cards are special but when you are creating for your best friend, it's more so.  I used the Jillibean Soup Small Heart Shaker Card Set.  It comes with 8 cards and envelopes, along with 8 shaker hearts that have a peel off sticky backing on the backside.  These are not yet available at Scrapbook.com, however if you click the link, you can select to be notified when they are in stock.  I love them!  They are so easy to use!

I also used the Jillibean Soup Hug in a Mug shaker die and stamp set, also available soon.  I love the possibilities with that adorable heart and cup; gift cards, shape cards and more.

In addition, I used Ranger Ink distress oxide ink in Worn Lipstick for my cup.  I simply trimmed a piece of watercolor paper and dredged it several times on a craft mat that had been inked and spritzed with water.  Once dry, I splattered water droplets and blotted with a paper towel.

My paper is from the Echo Park Hello Faith collection.  Isn't that plaid lovely?

I have another tip for you as well.  Because the Jillibean soup cards come with the heart already cut out on paper, how do you then line up more paper and trim a similar sized heart so your shaker will fit?  I discovered one of the small heart dies in the Scrapbookcom exclusive heart nesting dies works perfectly for this.  You can then pop your shaker through the heart cut out on the card and the heart cut on your panel.

Although Jillibean Soup makes shaker fillers, I'm using Sparkletz from Buttons Galore and More.  All of my adhesives are by Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L, including the foam circles that I used to pop up my plaid panel and coffee cup.  Thanks so much for stopping in!  Stay crafty...... Terri

National Bubble Bath Day

Hey crafty friends.  Yes indeed, National Bubble Bath Day is a thing!  Who knew?  I had an idea to make easy bubble bath, Unicorn style!  Perfect for getting fussy kids into the bathtub.   Hop on over to the Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L blog for all the details, including that awesome bubbly label below, featuring the MFT Stamps set, Magical Unicorns.

If you popped over here from the Scrapbook Adhesives blog, I promised to share information on the font that I used for my label.  The name of the font is "Fantastic" and is part of a free font bundle available at The Hungry JPEG.  You'll need a program to unzip the file.  You can find many free programs online for this.  If you are not familiar with how to install the free font, once you've unzipped it and downloaded to your computer, there are instructions in the free bundle folder on how to do this.  I chose the Fantastic font as it closely resembled the style of pottery artist, Rae Dunn.  Once I installed my font, I simply created a word document, typed the text, "Unicorn Bubbles" using my font, then printed on Neenah Solar White cardstock.  I allowed enough room on my cardstock so I could stamp the unicorn, do some coloring and create the label with nesting dies.  I hope that answers your questions about the font!

I hope you find a little time to relax and do a little soaking today!  Thanks for popping in.  Be sure and head on over to the Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L blog.  You'll find convenient affiliate shopping links below, for many of the products that I've used today.  Have a great day!

(Please note, the nesting dies that I used are not listed below.  You can find the Echo Park dies, here.)

Last Minute Gift Tags

Here we are on Christmas Eve and I've got some last minute gift tags, for Paper House Productions.

I'm one of those who refuses to go out and buy gift tags, when I can easily make them quickly myself.  Besides, handmade is more special, right?  Today, I'm using scrapbook papers from the Christmas Joy Craft Set, along with other Paper House holiday elements.  Scroll down for more.

(FTC Disclosure: as an affiliate for various companies in the craft industry, I will receive a small commission for purchases made through my convenient affiliate links.  This does not affect your purchase price.)

I'll be honest.  These tags happened, quite by accident.  I chose the red/white striped paper included in the kit.  It's double side and features some really gorgeous cut out images on the flip side.  Well, when I die cut my red/white paper with my nesting tag dies and flipped it over, look what happened..... practically perfect tags that were better than I could have dreamed!

There's the little edged, sectioned circles that were perfect for adding a stamped "to" and "from".  Next, add some gold foiled accents from the Christmas Magic Cardstock Stickers included in the kit.  

Layer your gold accented cardstock stickers with a strip of Christmas Joy Washi Tape to finish off your tag.

I hope this inspires you to find unique ways to use your Paper House Productions Christmas scrapbook paper!  You'll find a full list of products and clickable shopping links below.  Thanks for popping in and have a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

Mistletoe Christmas Card With Foil

Christmas is almost upon on us and I have one final holiday project this year for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L.  I often take handmade cards with me to various holiday family events and pass them out in person.  Particularly, if I've procrastinated about mailing cards, which (I hate to admit) is often the case.  This card comes together quickly with a little stamping, glitter and foil.  Even the kids can help.  Be sure and stop by the Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L blog for all the creative details.

(FTC Disclosure: as an affiliate for various companies in the craft industry, I will receive a small commission for purchases made through my convenient affiliate links.  This does not affect your purchase price.)

The stamp set that I'm using was an exclusive set from Simon Says Stamp and Avery Elle (Merry Mistletoe) and was available only for a limited time.  It's no longer available but you can use the same technique on your own mistletoe stamps or peruse this selection of stamps featuring mistletoe images.

Don't forget to hop over to the Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L blog for more on this project.  You'll find links to many of the products that I used, below.  Thanks for popping in and Merry Christmas!
