Shabby Pumpkins

Sorry folks.. forgot to take a photo, but I'll link up the tutorial I found on making the shabby pumpkins we made today at the make 'n take.  Check out the tutorial here... by MsLiberty25.

Here's the basic instructions:
1.  Cut 12x12 cardstock in half so you have 2 6"x 12" pieces.  You can make 2 pumpkins with one sheet.  You can also adjust the size of your pumpkin by cutting it to desired length.

2.  Then cut the sheet into 5/8" strips.  You should get about 19 strips.

3.  Punch holes on each end of the strips.

3.  Using long brads, stick all strips through the brad and secure by opening up the feet.

4.  Fan out strips and select strip closest to the brad head.  Starting with that strip, stick the other end of the strip through another brad.  Select a strip on the opposite end.  Then repeat, selecting strips on opposite ends.

5. Close up brad and decorate!

You can see pumpkin samples at the shop!  Great for housing goodies like Halloween candy and other small gifts!

New Product is IN!!!

In the meantime we have received a shipment of NEW product.  Mr. Barnes happened to be here as the order was checked in and couldn't resist getting the Create A Flake Snowflakes Die from Spellbinders.  He was very quick to bring us samples of how beautiful they really are once they are cut out!  Look at the new Icicles die too! (Thanks Mr. Barnes) Great for Winter Holiday cards or gift tags.

Also, the New colors of Tim Holtz Distress Markers are now in and on the shelf.

It's a must to come in and see all the new product that has arrived.  Just a few things pictured below!  Look how cute those penguins are and those flowers are just beautiful.  You really should see them in person.

 This is the final sample of Jenny's Non Envelope Class using the Envelope Punch Board.  Its a candy box!  It's so cute.  This box and two cards are being made in this class.  The two cards were pictured in a previous post.  If you want to see them better just come on in.  They are sitting on the desk for everyone to see.  This Non Envelope Class using the Envelope Punch Board is being offered on November 2.  Call and reserve your spot today.

We are so excited.  The last couple of days have been about getting the new arrivals in the computer and on the shelves!  Sizzix has arrived.  All you Tim Holtz fans... the gears are here!  As well as the Hardware Findings!!!  I can not wait to use these dies with the grunge board.
Here is the picture of the new Sizzix Dies, stamps, and embossing folders:

Also, we have all been awaiting the new Lawn Fawn order.  They are just so cute.  The ever popular Good Fortune will fly off the shelf.  You should be able to pick that one of the crowd of new stamps pictured below.  Do you see that...?  You  do not have to cut them out by hand!  They now have their own dies for some of their stamps.  Come in and check them out.

We should be receiving a Lifestyle Crafts order and a Hawaiian Paper order any day!  Thanks for stopping by.  Hope everyone stays dry and warm this weekend. Have fun crafting!

Happy Valentine's Day

Is everyone enjoying their Valentine's Day?  We hope you are!  

We did receive an order from Hero Arts that is just perfect for today or any "LOVE" card or scrapbook page you want to create. I love hearts because they can be used for any occasion. There is also great new Hero Arts Fancy Dies that are a must see.  Check them out in the picture below.

I can't wait to play with that butterfly.  I love the detail and the  Art of the Card Stamps from Hero Arts are always my go to stamps.  They are really easy to use with the Distress Inks and Stains!  Those tags you see have matching dies. They are the perfect size to hang off of small gifts and treat bags.

So much to come and look at.  The ideas are always endless.

Also, the Class scheduled for Saturday with Tracy is full and she is offering to have the class again on Saturday, February 23rd 10:30 - 12:30.  The class will show you the techniques used to make these cards (shown below).  We will be using Spellbinders, Distress Inks, and embossing powders.  It's a lot of fun.  Call the shop to reserve your seat!
