Dressing up Composition Books

Pin It
Never again do we have to cover the whole composition book.  They have so many fabulous designs now.  What makes it even better are the clear covers we found for them. Now all that hard work (well, not in this case) doesn't get ruined in your purse.  The cover even has a pocket for note taking essentials.

Rat Traps

Pin It
Almost a year ago we posted some pictures of some mouse traps that Renee Coburn made.  Here's a simple version we made to sell at our booth at Swiss days this weekend. First you have to do a bit of disassembling,  If you'll notice a few of the pieces are missing. Just use some plyers to pull off the extra hardware. If you cut a piece of DSP for the top and the bottom, then cut a couple of little slits for the wires they are super easy to cover.

Banner Bash- America

Pin It
The back ground was stamped in Cherry Cobbler and the letters sponged with the stencil. After you cut out the stars, just fold on the lines to make them pop out. Liberty would be a great word on this banner too.

This Banner is a fun advent calendar for 12 days.  You can add a new picture each day as you get closer to Christmas. Such a meaningful way to celebrate the holiday. For this banner, we made pockets with extra banners to slide the pictures in.

Banner Bash- Chill

Pin It
I know its still summer, but this banner might be fitting right now. I think the magnetic platform is a must with this project. We traced the letters with the stencils in this project also, yes, crazy, but we loved the layers.

Banner Bash- Christmas

Pin It
The background of the Joy banner is done the same way as the Halloween characters that we posted yesterday. We tried another Joy banner with the letters stenciled on top of a whole piece of polka dot DSP. It looked was cute and it was quicker to do. I love how the ho ho one is hanging down. Lollies are perfect for banners.
