12 Crafts of Christmas - Day 1 - Stocking Stuffers and Small Crafty Gifts

Welcome to the first day of my brand new YouTube series, 12 Crafts of Christmas! Each day I will share a Christmas craft such as a card, tag, ornament and more! For today though, I have some gift ideas to share! Here are 5 inexpensive crafty gifts or stocking stuffers. For starts, here is the Stori Clear Plastic Nail Polish organizer.
I use one of these for my Distress Oxide ink blenders and it fits perfectly inside one of my Alex drawers from IKEA.
I use another for my Tonic Studios Nuvo Crystal Drops and liquid glues.
Next up are the Yoseng brushes! These super soft make up brushes are cheap, but blend Distress Oxide ink beautifully!
Speaking of Distress Oxide inks, there are several new colors and I can absolutely recommend these three, Festive Berries, Pine Needles and Chipped Sapphire.
Then there are the new Tonic Studios Nuvo Vintage Drops. They dry dimensional and bright but have matte color as opposed to the shiny Crystal Drops. 
There's also fun colors of Glitter Accents.
And last, but not least, there is a whole new batch of Therm O Web and Gina K Designs adhesives. Everything from Foam Tape to Masking Tape and more!
I show all these crafty gifts up close in this video, so you can check them out and see if they are right for you or a crafty friend!
Thanks so much for stopping by for Day 1 of my 12 Crafts of Christmas! Check out all the supplies I used in the video below! Happy shopping!

Waffle Flower November Release Blog Hop + Giveaway!



Welcome to the Waffle Flower November Release Blog Hop! I have lots to share with you this month but don't forget to make it to the end where we will talk about the GIVEAWAY!

This release 4 stamps sets (one available with matching dies) and a stand alone set of tag dies perfect for topping off presents or decorating cards! So let me share some of the projects I created with these fabulous new stamps and dies! First up is the adorable Holiday Thanks stamp set and matching dies! 
The whole scene is created for you on one stamp. Color it in with markers pencils, watercolors and more! This set is amazing for making thank you cards for all the wonderful gifts you receive for Christmas!
But the best part about this set is that you can cut off the image of the Christmas tree, add a little birthday hat and turn the image into one that works for a birthday card or birthday thank you card!
I created this card by watercoloring rainbows over the background and stamped image using Distress Oxide Inks.
 Next up is Winter Wishes. The adorable snowpeople can be quickly stamped with this 2 layer builder stamp set.
 And how cute is Cool Dog?! Again another 2 layer stamp that can quickly and easily create the cutest floppy eared dog wearing a pom pom hat!
I also used the Dotted Tags Die Set for this card! I inked the small tags and used them as an embellishment and stamped the image on cardstock that I layered over the largest tag.
 These Dotted Tags look great on cards, but they are also just the right touch for topping off presents!
I stamped a simple greeting on the middle size tag and layered all three sizes together to decorate this Christmas present.

Waffle Flower October Release Blog Hop!

Welcome to the Waffle Flower October 2018 New Release Blog Hop! There are so many amazing stamps and dies in this release! Everything from fall, to Christmas and beyond is covered!
To celebrate the new release, all orders placed by 11:59pm ET on 9/7/18 will receive a mysterious gift; Limited 1 per customer; While Supplies last.

OK, now let's move onto the cards I made with this awesome release! OHMYGOSH I can't tell you how much fun I had creating with Sweater Weather! 

The stamp set includes a floral sweater and an open sweater that you can customize with flowers, hearts, dots or sentiments. I chose to leave my second sweater open and have the two sweaters holding "hands."
Next up is Coffee Time! Again, I had so much fun with this one. I am a BIG time coffee drinker so I loved paper piecing the little kraft coffee holder. 
I thought the Coffee Time sentiment would make a fun background.
I love the background in shades of brown but rainbow is fun too! Plus I had to create a little pocket for a coffee shop gift card!
Next up is Hello Pumpkin! I adore these little mice!
I love that they can hold coffees, lates, leaves, acorns and more! Plus the leaves and pumpkins are too cute!
The My Sunshine stamp set is sooooo pretty! I loved using colored pencils to color the flowers and banner and I stamped and heat embossed the image with gold embossing powder.
I also had a lot of fun creating a long and thin card for the Yippee stamp set and matching dies! The kids were all so cute I wanted to include them all!
Last, but not least, I didnt get a picture of my Pull Tab Tree Combo card, but I wanted to show you a bunch of cards made with the bundle and Combo:
I'll have lots of samples coming in the next few weeks with that one so stay tuned!
