Pumpkin Treats with Beth

Hello my crafty friends!  Happy Monday.  Beth from Beth's Beauties here with these cute pumpkin treats!  I decided to create these to welcome in the fall season.

The file I used is from JGW Autumn Aire.  You can find the tutorial for assemble HERE.  I cut them out of papers from DCWV's Pumpkin Patch stack and assembled them with Scotch tacky glue.  I chose to add a Ghirardelli chocolate inside and embellished with a bow of Spiced Pumpkin Trendy Twine.  These will be perfect to give to my boys for a fall treat!

I hope you have a wonderfully crafty day!

National Coffee Day

Let's face it, without coffee my world doesn't go round and round again! When I saw that National Coffee Day was September 19th, I decided to design something to give as a gift set.

Coffee is my most favorite thing to look forward to every morning. That first burst of hotness on the taste buds, nothing like it. So why not share it with someone else?!

To begin with this gift set, I found this great 3D Secretary Box from SVG Attic's 'JGW Mothers Moments' set.

I immediately knew that the back compartment would be a great place for cards to be stored. I knew that I wanted to simulate coffee stains, however I don't have that stamp so I had to improvise.

 To start with, I wanted a darker coffee mix and a lighter one just for contrast

 For the darker, I just let the coffee pod soak a bit longer in hot water

 Next I took a shot glass (since I planned to use these as accents for the cards, I needed a smaller bottom than a regular sized coffee cup)

 Dip and stamp

 I did one 12 x 12 white sheet and one 8.5 x 11 just in case I wanted to print and cut on it.

I set these aside and got to work on the base and drawer insert for the main project. *******Sugar Tip*******the paper does wilt a bit (thin cardstock), all I did to flatten it was run a hot iron over it. Works like a charm!

This insert is not included in the project. But it is simple enough to make. I just took the measurements of the inside of the drawer, added enough to bend flaps down for adhering to the inside of the box, and added five circles to house the pods.

Tim Holtz idea-ology hardware brings out the best on this gift set. Gives any project a bit of a boost. 

The hidden areas of this box created the perfect opportunity for me to fill it with little gifts and goodies.

This project smelled great the entire time I was cutting and gluing!

The six cards housed in the back are all different, but still share the same coffee cup from SVG Attic's 'SDS Coffee Break' set. 

 The coffee rings turned out good.

 Next I created nine tags to go into the hidden compartment. Each one is different

Winter Fun

I-team Sonja here. There are so many great winter activities, that I decided to display them all for January.

I used several SVG Attic files to create this project listed below under Materials Used. 

I really wanted an old style sled. I decided to put a couple of SVG Attic files together and create my own sled!

You can't have winter fun without snow! This new snowflake is gorgeous with the glitter paper. 

I like to watch hockey, ice skate not so much (getting too old for falling on ice), same goes for skiing, but building a snowman is still fun!  

A dab of fake glitter snow against the sparkling paper makes it all pop! 

The lights make this set serene when lit up at night! 

This concludes my take on winter and I hope to not see anymore snow for a long time!

Haunted Cottage

Hello all. I-team Sonja here with a fun take on the cottage from the RW English Cottage Kit. 

I am doing a three part posting. Every two weeks for my next three postings will be a new cottage to show you the versatility that can be done with this set! 

To begin with, who is excited for Halloween this year? The inspiration for this haunted house came to be when some neighbors up the road started assembling their yearly haunted house attraction. 

 The front of the cottage displays a friendly ghost who is riding the haunted house of the unfriendly ghosts!

 The wicked witch has found herself in an unfortunate situation. 

 When this house is lit at night, the middle window displays a few secrets held within the walls of this old cottage. 

 First side of the house

 The back of the house has a little cemetery and creepy tree.

 Notice the little cobwebs found throughout the house!

 And the final side of the house

Now, turn the lights off and watch it come to life!!!

 In each photo, the eyes are a different color from the rest of the lit up windows.

To achieve this effect, I used two different flame-less colored candles.

Tune back in on the 2nd for the next inspiration cottage!
