FotoBella.com June Creation. Party Favors.

 

Hi there! There are so many summer parties and birthdays coming up in my world. I thought I would share some Ideas for Party Favors or Take Always.

These are cone shaped pouches to hold candy or small gifts to hand out to party guests.

What you will need:

Bo Bunny Little Miss I want it all collection, scissors, paper trimmer, adhesive runner, paper edger, decorative scissors or punch.

Optional: Sewing machine 

FotoBella.com has everything you will need.

  To make one favor, Cut patterned paper to your desired size. Mine are 6”x7”. 

  On the underside of the paper, place adhesive along two of the edges.

  Roll the paper into a tube shape and press the ends together, adhering them.

 

Press the end of the tube (with the adhesive) closed.

Sew along the edge, if desired.

 

Trim the edge with decorative scissors or punch, if desired.

  Fill the favor with candy or small gifts. Turn the favor so that the length bottom edge is facing away from you. Close the top edge and seal. You can also use a hole punch and ribbon for the embellishments.

 

Repeat the steps to make multiple favors.

All that is left is to decorate them….

These are very easy to make.

Hope your summer is a festive one.

Thanks for checking out my tutorial.

365 Project....

Happy Monday to you....

After much thought I have decided to start the 365 Project...

Most of you might have heard of it... It is where to take an image everyday for a whole year to show your life with a photo. This is a sunset photo that I took on July1st.
And the one below was taken July 2nd and is of my Son looking up while playing on his game boy.

You will get much eye-candy images from me of my art, paper crafts and photos.
Hope you will enjoy the journey with me and may also participate in 365 Project.

Prima Gift Record....

Happy Saturday to you-!

I created a small Gift Record book for a wedding shower. Or it could be used as a guest book as well.

This was so much fun to put together.

The embellishments just kept coming and coming and well you get the point.

I used the Songbird Collection Journaling tags and some plain index cards for the inside pages.

On the Songbird cards I took white acrylic paint to the edges to soften the look. Then on the index cards I used Prima's Quick dry fluid inks in Old Rose and  Shabby Tote. The Old Rose alone was too much pink so I toned it down with Shabby Tote. As you can see I kept adding more and more Prima Flowers and Layered them. 

Why is it so much fun to play with Prima's Products???

Thanks Again for stopping by and viewing my creations. Please don't hesitate to leave a comment. Love to hear your thoughts.

Warmly-

Sarinda

Month In Review....

 

Hi Crafties....

I had to share my version of this scrap lifted layout from Silhouette's blog. Click the link to see their version and tutorial. (they have great tutorials, if you want to see what the machine can DO.)

 It is all done on the Silhouette with their Sketch Pens and Instagram app. photos.

I just happen to be a fan of both.

I created my as {Month in Review} instead of {Year in Review}. 

I like doing the Month because you can look at one page and get the feel of the whole month at a glance rather than flip through several layouts. Kind of a "Cliff Notes" to your life. :D 

I will be doing many more of these.

I love my Silhouette.... 

I do not endorse anything that I do not use myself.

It cuts, inks and has a print and cut feature. I also can upload my own art and cut it out-!!!
Thanks FotoBella.com-!

Stampotique Designers Challenge SDC57:

Birthday Box Pop Out

I love playing along with Stampotique Designers Challenges.

They are so creative and off the top.

Not so much fluff and stuff.

This challenge is Outside the Box....

I created a Birthday Box Pop Out using Ranger Distress Stains and Manila Tags.
I see that I need to order some more stamps from them.... 
I keep using the same stamps-!

Tip:  How you get the splat look is get the stain top nice and juicy on your craft mat, then spat it onto you card. (It is a fun way to release any sort of frustration kind of process.) Then use Distress Ink and a blending tool to do the edges.
