Projects....What I Was Up To Over The Weekend!!

Hey everyone, Nikki again.  This is my second post today and there will be one more following this one.  I wanted to share with everyone what I was up to over the weekend while the hop was going on.  Enjoy!

I altered a composition notebook and created a post it note holder for my cousin.  Paper is DCWV Amber Autumn. Boarder punch was EK Success.  I used cricut cartridge Tie The Knot on the notebook and Storybook on the holder.  Tattered Angels Sugar Plum Fairy glimmer mist matched almost perfectly to the paper and the white and goldish yellow paper came from a Recollections pack.


This was such a quick project and I did it so quickly that I have no idea how it turned out so good.  Saturday I was able to spend time with my family at my aunt and uncle's open house.  My cousin loves to craft, she takes after her cousin lol.  We decided to do a RAK and I know she wanted to raid half of my stash so I decided to let some of my craft stuff go, I have so much stuff that I cleaned house so I can buy more.
On the left I used a kraft gift bag I bought at the dollar store.  Covered it with paper and used a boarder punch from EK Success.  Butterflies and "create"  were cut from cricut cartridge Home Decor.  I used Sakura Glaze pen to create the dots and glimmer misted the butterflies in Mimosa.  I put some Stickles on the antennas to add some more bling.
On the right is a tin that I had from a present last Christmas.  Boarder punch is once again EK Success.  Bling is Recollections and the butterfly came from Prima.  Paper is from Recollections as well.  I put flowers that I haven't used in awhile into the tin and that was part of her gift.

So I guess I wasn't that busy over the weekend, I was happy enough to spend time with my family.

Stay tuned for the rosette tutorial coming up next.
