All That Scraps Wednesdays Challenge





All That Scraps Wednesdays Challenge is here again.  Today's creations are for New Year's ideas.  I love to serve homemade goodies at our party.  So I made chocolate chip cookies and placed them in my antique baking pan with a candle.  I made a sign using C.C. Designs "Cookie Emma", Copics, and Spellbinder's Labels 13.  Fun and perfect way to serve refreshments.  Hope you stop by the blog and see what all the other designers have made.  May you have a blessed New Year!

All That Scraps Wednesdays Challenge





Inspired by a song, "I'm dreaming of a White Christmas", I created this card for All That Scraps Wednesdays Challenge.  I used C.C. Design stamp, Spellbinders Snowflakes, Robin's Nest "Winter Retreat Snowflake" cardstock, and of course my Copics.  To create cut/emboss snowflakes.  Color images and snowflakes with Copics.  Use Spica pens to embellish.  Layer and assemble card.  Hope you get inspired to create.

All That Scraps Wednesdays Challenge

I love to create gifts.  Today I created this crock filled with my homemade hot chocolate.  I filled a bag with hot chocolate, stuffed it into this old (cleaned) crock I found and added the tag.  I created the tag using C.C. Designs "Brr Emma".  I colored her with my Copics, cut her out, and layered her onto Spellbinders Labels 4 die.  Inked the edges and tied her on to the crock with twine.   What a perfect way to share something you made.  I hope you get creating some great gifts of your own.  Need some inspiration.  Hop on over to the All That Scraps Wednesdays Challenge to see all the other wonderful creations.

Cake Gift Tin Turtorial


Today I am going to show you how I created this beautiful Cake Gift Tin from items you may already have.


To start I used a 4 oz. can green chili can, frozen orange juice lid, Cuttlebug dots embossing folder, Spellbinders Eyelet Circle die # 5, Standard Circles LG die # 4 & 5, Prima Pink Roses, white & pink cardstock.


First remove the lid from the frozen orange juice and label from the green chili can.  Wash. 
To make pattern for can, wrap white cardstock around can.  Hold.  Trace top and bottom edge with pencil.  Mark for length.  Cut bottom edge.  On top edge, cut 1/8” above traced line.  (This allows for lid to fit on top).  Copy onto cardboard for permanent pattern.


                Emboss cutout.  Flip around and line up last row of dots.  Emboss again.

Cut two Standard Circles die #5.  One from die #4.  All from white cardstock.
Cut two Eyelet Circle die # 3 from pink cardstock.
Emboss smallest circle with Cuttlebug dots.
Adhere one large white circle to the bottom of pick Eyelet circle.  Repeat.
Add small dot white circle to one layered circle.  Adhere to flat side of frozen orange juice lid.

                                                           Here is the lid upside down.

Adhere layered circles to base of can using mount foam.
Adhere dot cutout to can using strong adhesive.
Notice the lip of paper above rim of can.  This is the 1/8” extra you added to the pattern.  This allows for the lid to fit snuggly into place.
Cut Rose stems from roses.  Wrap stems around small paintbrush.
Adhere roses & curled stems to center of lid.
You can add foam to the base of can to insert jewelry or small items for gift.

Thank you for stopping by and I hope you enjoyed today’s tutorial.
