In Celebration of Thanksgiving!!


I found this adorable Scallop Punch Turkey while surfing the web a few nights ago, and thought it would be perfect to celebrate the upcoming Thanksgiving Holiday! I couldn't believe how STINKING cute this fowl was!
It is made out of a few scallop punches in a few different colors. You cut 4 different colors in half, and with your scissors cut a little space between scallops for the feathered tail look. For the body/head- take another scallop punch and cut to match the shape in the picture...I am not sure how to describe that well. I guess make a triangle of sorts, does that work? The beak and turkey chin (that is the technical term), is made from a small flower punch (from the spring bouquet). The feet are kind of hard to see but they are made from a scrap piece that has little whimsical talons cut into them. :) How do you like that description! I think these would be adorable for name cards for Thanksgiving dinner. I would opt to make these as long as I don't have to cook. :) I hope you enjoy this cute little tid-bit.

LOOK WHAT I HAVE BEEN UP TO...

Over the past few months I have been working feverishly to get a whole slew of projects done for my different craft fairs. I have completed them all and I am going to post everything here. *grin*. This post will be kind of long...get ready. I am hoping that over the next month or so I can add an option to my website to purchased personalized versions of these items- so keep an eye out! Here we go-


This is a travel mug that you can use for all kinds of beverages. It has little coffee beans around the top and bottom and all of the turquoise embellishments are EMBOSSED. Along the top it says, "Love, Laugh, Live." The coffee mug has an embossed heart and straw, the foam on top is done with a 3-D puffy applique. It is all encased in a protective mug. It can not be washed in the dishwasher but can be cleaned by hand. This can be personalized any way you would like, with different colors, phrases, or even names.

This is a child's activity box. It is filled with 6 laminated games and also includes 3 dry eraser markers. The games include Tic-Tac-Toe, Word Find, Maze, Word Scramble, Connect the Dots, and a blank page for Art. these are great for kids in restaurants, Dr. offices, church, and any other place you want your child to stay occupied and quiet. It all comes packaged in a perfect sized clear plastic box that is easy enough for kids to open. These can be personalized with the child's name as well.


These are Baby blanket Gift Packs. They consist of a stamped baby receiving blanket, stamped onesie, stamped hat- all tied together for an adorable presentation. They can be created with all types of messages, and even be personalized with the babies name. This example says, "I'm Here" with little hand prints or feet prints. These are great gifts to celebrate a new baby or babies!


Personalized Baby Shower invitations are a great way to set the mood for your day of celebration. These are made for girl, boy, or gender neutral themes in mind. They are coordinating colors and have matching patterned ribbons across these postcard style invitation.




These Candy Bar Sliders are so fun to give, get and MAKE! They are super cute and make a great teachers gift, party favor, or even used in lieu of a place setting card. When you untie the bow and pull on the ribbon the candy bar comes sliding out of the fabulous wrapper. You can have any saying you desire placed on the front scalloped tag.



This is another great gift for those mothers expecting a new addition. These can be made to be gender specific, but this example is gender neutral. The gift can includes a decorative clear paint can (that can be used for scrapbooking on the go), stamped onesie, stamped note pad, and matching shaker magnet. There is an adorable poem that explains how to use the can...when kids are small we often don't have time to scrapbook those memorable moments so jot them down (along with the date) on the note pad included and place inside the can. When you have time you will have all your memories ready to put down on paper whether it's in a scrapbook or a baby book.



These decorative Clear Paint Pails are a great way to finish of the perfect teachers gift or holiday hostess gift just to name a few. You can fill these decorative pails with almost anything- even CHOCOLATE! The different themes I can create are as follows: "Filled with Love", "Happy Holidays", Trick or Treat", "#1 Teacher", "Just for You", Happy Birthday", "Special Day", and "For Baby".




These adorable Desk Calendars are perfect gift for a co-worker, teacher, or even yourself! There is a different card for every month that tucks ever so neatly into a mini clear case, and when opened and folded backwards also acts as a stand for the entire calendar. When you finish with one month simply toss it or place it in the back of the case to reveal your current month.



These Designer frames are great for any room in your house. They make great gifts and accent pieces to any decor. These can be made in any color for more of a sophisticated feel to a more whimsical look.

These FUN Holiday Name Frames are a great accent to your decor for any holiday season. The frame comes with 4 Holiday inserts- "Merry Christmas", "Happy Thanksgiving", "Happy Easter", "Happy Halloween".


Kid Keepers are a handy little tool that tucks away in any purse or bag for those emergency situations when you need to keep your child HAPPY. The stamped scenic picture is folded neatly on top of the crayon case. Simply pull the kit out of your bag, unfold the picture and let your child get creative. These are great for any situation!




These decorative Luggage Tags are perfect identifiers for your belongings. You can use them on Luggage, Scrapbook Totes, or any bag you want others to know is YOURS!


These decorative Mail Boxes can be personalized for any occasion. These can be filled with anything for any gift occasion. They make a great container for party favors and be coordinated to go with any theme.




Stamped Note Cubes is a simple gift for teachers, co-workers or a great addition with a candy bar slider or paint pail gift. These come complete with a coordinating Beaded Pen, and wrapped with accenting ribbon!



Stamped onesies are a great gift! These can be personalized in so MANY different ways. These are heat set and able to be washed and worn with out fading. Any theme or design can be used and would be a great accompaniment to any gift!
