UMT #48 - Caramel Apple Basket

Welcome to my newest Using My Tools post. So for new friends and visitors Using My Tools posts are crafty creations where I pull something out of my stash that at one time, I thought I just "HAD" to have and finally use it. This time I'm still working on some SVGCut file kits. This post is from the Caramel Apple Pie Kit.

This time I made a cool caramel apple basket for a special friend.

Here's a look at my chocolate dipped caramel apple


I hope you enjoyed viewing my project and are inspired to make more than just cards or scrapbook layouts!

Scrapbook Saturday # 44 - A+ Memories

Hi There. All Things Beautiful here with another Scrapbook Saturday and a short post it is! Today's Page is a double layout with lots of color. This was my daughters last Elementary School Field Day and her team had to wear yellow. 


As I was taking pictures all the girls wanted in so I snapped a few quick photos of the girls in her class. I used a Word Document for the journaling which I typically do just because all the details are captured neatly.

Products Used:
Plantin Schoolbook Cricut Cartridsge
SCAL for the title

UMT # 47 - Caramel Apple Fall Card

Welcome to my newest Using My Tools post. So for new friends and visitors Using My Tools posts are crafty creations where I pull something out of my stash that at one time, I thought I just "HAD" to have and finally use it. 

This time it's a Cut File from SVGCuts.com. I know it's still summer but I love all things fall and so I couldn't help but pull out a new paper pad I picked up from Hobby Lobby and give this cut file a whirl. There's lots of fun things in this SVG kit and I hope to make all of them over the next few month

I inked most of the edges on the embellisghments. I used leaves and sentiment stamp from Inkadinakdoo

I also added buttons and embossing on the leaves for texture.

Products:
Buttons from my Stash
Cricut embossing folders- Swiss Dots, Paisley & Victoria
Inkadnkadoo Stamp set 
Bazzill Paper Quicksand & Bitter Chocolate
The Paper Shelter (By Hobby Lobby) -  Matural Botanicals

CMM #48 - Mason Jar Just for You

Good Morning All! Welcome to my Card Making Monday post.
Today's card is a shaker card. If you haven't made a shaker card yet and would like to you can find the tutorial I used here. You can also find many more tutorials on my tutorial tab here. 
For my card I wanted to make a shaker out of a stamp I have. I had to stamp the mason stamp onto the acetate and carefully fussy cut a border outside the line of the stamp and then do the same with the foam.


I've only made a few shaker cards and I really need to remember to be patient for the glue to dry onthe foam before I fill my shaker with little baubles. Both times I made one, this one included,  I was so excited to finish I didn't wait until the glue dried and the little bits and sequiens stuck to the sides of hte foam and in the middle once they got osme glue on them. Bummer! So learn from my mistake. Be patient and wait!


I hope you enjoyed viewing today's card Making Monday.

UMT # 46 - Up, Up and Away Birthday Box Card

Welcome to Using My Tools #46.Using My Tools posts are crafty creations where I pull something out of my stash that at one time, I thought I just "HAD" to have and use it. Well, for this post I didn't necessarily have these cut files for very long but I did want to make a point to make this card fairly right after I bought the SVG kit from SVGCuts.com. As most card crafters out there know box cards have been all the rage lately. This box card design was so striking to me I just couldn't wait to make it and so here it is...


Here's a side view.

Thanks for checking out my next Using My Tools creation and have a fabulous day!
