Housewarming Cookout Invitation

2011-06-19T00:19:00.000-07:00

Today has been one rainy saturday. I say its a great day to design and create. One of my clients asked me to create them a housewarming announcement, but needed them made right away. So I created a typewriter style invitation which I think is so awesome. Even though it looks plain, adding all the different style fonts adds great finishing touches.

Well enough babbling on here is the finished product.

If you would like to purchase these invitations as well please send me a message to uniqu3scrapper@gmail.com, and I will be glad to make you a template as well. Thank you for looking and have a great weekend.

I will be make some Maizena men which are cookies that I used to purchase in Holland. I will also make Chocolate and add crunched up chocolate milk nuts.

Well off to the card for today. I created a custom card for my dad to mail out to his family. I love the reindeer that has ornaments wrapped around him.

Well today I started my new job checking patients their insurance. Pretty easy!!! Hopefully soon I can make enough on my craft to work from home =) . Well today I created a super adorable card. I love all the white space on the card. I bought the red ornament stickers from Michael's which was like .45 cent..so I gladly grabbed 2 packs of those. I took my marker and just drew in some swirls to add a hang effect. And to top it off I used my pretty bakers twine ribbon which always adds such a good feeling.

Im Back....A lot of things have been going on lately. 1 being that I didn't have internet connection (which I must say was super obnoxious) thats why I haven't posted anything lately. This weekend I celebrated christmas with my girlfriends with our tradition in making and decorating cookies. We started this tradition about 2 Christmases ago when my girlfriend got pregnant. Ever since then the first year we made a gingerbread house which had too much icing and some of the sidings to the house was hard. Last year we made gingerbread men and well lets just say they came out really fluffy hehe... So this year we decided to be safe and make decorated sugar cookies. What did you guys make for the holidays?

My girlfriend asked if I could make same goodie bags for her office so I made 25 gift card toppers that were all different and must I say super adorable. I added 3D adhesive to the words in the front which made it look even cuter.

These are some of them

And these...

My dad asked me to make some nutcracker cards for him last weekend

I wasnt sure about the black ribbon and first but it came out perfect. It matched great with the color combination.

Love and other drugs

2010-12-12T18:45:00.000-08:00

Yesterday my girlfriends treated me to the movies which was "Love & other drugs" That movie touched me so much. It felt real and they did a great job with the movie. It was very touching and kept me smiling the entire day. This is a must see!!! - If you haven't seen it already!!! What was you guys favorite part in the movie. Mine was when Jack was in the tube and Anne was outside of it. They were having a conversation and it felt so real how they working looking at each other. Great acting.

Well today I created a super cute card to add to my christmas card collection. I found the super cute sticker in my craft stash the other day, its too cute. I wrote in "Merry Christmas"

Thank you for coming to check me out. Have a great rest of a Sunday!

Nursery Rhyme

2010-12-10T00:05:00.000-08:00

Sooo I have been super busy lately. I have a lot of catching up to do on my blog with posting the holiday cards. One of the things that took some of my time was my nursery rhyme package that I created for my new client. I was asked to make a banner, 30 napkin rings, and 15 hats for Grace 2nd birthday. I thought it turned out really good. Well I will be on later to post holiday cards

These are the napkin rings that I created. I added different nursery rhymes like, itsy bitsy spider, twinkle little star, black sheep, I'm a little teapot, and Jack and Jill.

The hat that I made specialized for Grace is super cute. I added 3D adhesive to her name. The humpty dumpty image is cute as well.

This take a little while to do. Especially because I made a mistake by adding a 1 the first time (shoot!) So I had to do everything over again.

Well thank you so much for looking at my party package. If you are interested in this for a birthday or baby shower, please feel free to contact me at any time. I will be able to work with you

Holiday card 2 in 1

2010-12-06T18:22:00.000-08:00

Hello today has been such a busy day! I'm working on a nursery rhyme part package for one of my clients, which I am making a banner, party hats, and napkin rings. I still had some time to make a quick item before today ends. My best friend asked me to make a gift card holder for her so this is what I came up with. I hope you guys enjoy.

This is the front of the gift card holder. I cut the scalloped circle with my 2 " punch, added 3D adhesive, and added a funky gingerbread man.

The inside I added some different paper and wrote " I love gift card holders because people are so picky that the best thing is to buy them a gift card these days. I told my friend I would make her something because I personally dont really care for gift cards. I think its more for being lazy to figure out what the person likes. It might just be me though. Does anyone else feel like that?

I use and envelope folded it in half then cut the middle flap to the folded line. I then glues one half of the flap , added some super cute paper and whalaa!

Well thank you again for looking again!

Materials Used:

Ginger Bread: SandyLion

Paper: tan (Bazzil basic)

christmas paper stack (DCWV)

Border: Scallop with circle (Fiskar)

Winter Wonderland - Day 5

2010-12-05T12:44:00.000-08:00

Good Sunday! It is freeeeezing outside and becoming more and more difficult to take walks with my (little girl) Westie Khloe ! She is the cutest thing ever!! She enjoys watching tv (animal planet (ofcourse) and cartoons. She keeps herself entertained with a sock :) . The cutest thing she does is when I tell her to look she snaps her head right away to look what I am trying to show her. Shes almost acts like a human. For all the animal lovers, what makes them so enjoyable?

So today I created a card to go with the freezing weather outside. I used my Thickers (Rockabye) and wrote the wonderland myself. For some reason the thickers kept falling off so I landed up gluing them on there. I then stamped my snowflake stamp that I purchased at Michaels and cut around it and added 3D adhesive on the back. You know I love something to pop out of the card.

I used K&Company decorative paper which had some great borders. I cut along the line which gave it a great look due to the border not being a straight line.

Challenges Entered:

Bee Crafty - winter but NOT christmas

Materials Used:

Letters: Rockabye Chip Board (Thickers)

Pen: white (inkssentials)

Paper: Gray (Bazill Basic)

Brenda Walton Peppermint Twist Candy Stripes (K & Company)

Thank you for looking and have a great rest of a Sunday!

Day 4 - I love presents

2010-12-04T18:17:00.000-08:00

Yesterday I stated how I have been making too many girly holiday cards. So today I picked some colors and images to make a masculine card. It was actually pretty easy. I used one of my sketches that I drew in my sketchbook. When I search other challenges, I like to draw my favorite sketches that I can use in the near future. It's great to do that because I know I have creative pauses sometimes.

I thought it was cute to make the presents to the side plain and make the one in the middle super colorful.

I added some gems which added a little pizazz :)

Materials Used:

Paper: tan (Bazzil basic)

christmas paper stack (DCWV)

Ribbon: green and white(bakers twine)

Border: Scallop with circle (Fiskar)

Pen: white (inkssentials)

Marker: R29, G07, C1, W5 (Copic)

Well let me know what you think. Untill tomorrow

Well today I decided to make a quick but still fun card. It was very easy to make and the colors and paper is great!

*quick mention* I noticed that I have been only making cards that would attract females. I have to start making some male cards as well, which I have to think hard on. Does anyone else have this problem?

I added 3D adhesive to the candle (that I got a free svg file for :) ) to make it a little more interesting

See totally easy card that you could make yourself in minutes. Thank you again and please leave comments! Until tomorrow

Well this first card I think is super adorable. The story is I was searching for other people that are fluent in my language dutch and a stumbled across this awesome page.

I wanted badly to create a house card to send out for the holidays, but I had no stamps or images. Thankfully I had my Songbird paper which are really birdhouses, but I though were super cute. I cut out 3 houses from the paper and glues them next to each other. I added 3D adhesive to the left house to make it pop out more.

Then when I decided to use my Sizzix Big Kick machine, I remembered that I lost my handle (must I say super obnoxious) So I had to go through my boyfriends tool box and find a wrench, which worked perfectly :) . Does anyone know where I can buy a handle by itself.

Material Used:

Paper:

Machine: Sizzix Big Kick Machine

Embossing: circle Cuttlebug

Paper: Red & Brown (Bazzil Basic)

christmas paper stack (DCWV)

Last thing to show I created these pins that I wanted to use for my greeting card, which I must say were easy and quick. All you need is a needle, beads, and hot glue (easy huh ? )

man of the house

2010-11-06T16:14:00.000-07:00

Hello everyone! Today I worked on a card for my dad's birthday. His favorite color is purple so I had to think hard about what I could make without it being too girly. Sooo here is the steps I took to make a super cute card. Let me know what you think and also if you have tips. I love receiving comments.

Ingredients

Paper: Snapdragon purple, Carob brown, green, tan (BazzilBasicPaper)

Markers: B24,BG45,R29, R08, Y38 (copic sketch)

Stamp: Dad clear stamp (studio G), woodgrain stamp

Ink: Brown, Alabaster (color box)

Ribbon: Hemp cord 20lb

Border: scallop w/ circle (Fiskar)

Pen: white (Inkssentials)

so I started off with a purple 6X6 card

tip ** when you fold your card, bend the paper on both sides to see which one folds easier than the other. This prevents from the paper getting cracks at folded line.** - nothing like having a beautiful card with cracks on it, not pretty.

I also used my Martha Stewart bone folder and made a line at 6 inches.

then cut 4X5 inches of the brown paper, and stamped the woodgrain stamp on it. In the next picture you can see a little bit that I made the edges look I little torn and rough. I used my Fiskars knife and filed the edges then used alabaster (tan color) and marked the edges.

Last I used my Martha Stewart circle cutter which you can see in the next picture.

I drew out my own bird because I didnt have a stamp and added Man of the House. What do you think? I really liked how it turned out! Thank you for looking and come again.

Monday cards

2010-10-25T18:24:00.000-07:00

Good Monday! How was everyones weekend. I went to celebrate my cousins birthday in Lotus (NW in DC) it was a very nice place and the first place where people were really down to earth. So if your in the area I would check it out! Well neways I worked on some cards that I made for some close family members. I think they turned out super cute!

I made this card for my grandma that lives in Utrecht, Netherlands! Its her birthday soon and the first card that I have made for her. Its so weird I make cards but almost every time still land up buying from the store. Well from now on I will use my creativity to be unique.

I embellished the card using K&Company's Handmade Mixed Petal Layered Accent. The colors matched perfectly with the color combination.

In the meantime I was contact by a nice lady to make her 14 year's old daughter 12 glee cupcake toppers. I feel really good when people ask me to create items for them.

My little foo fee - Khloe - was watching me the entire time a.k.a I need attention time.. hehe :)

This card I created for my cousins birthday (the one that I went to Lotus with) She loves clothes and pink so I wanted the card to match her personality. On the hot pink paper I took my stamp pad and brushed the edges (if you can see it) which added a lot more detail to it.

Thanks again for looking and have a great night!

Sooo today's another Tuesday. Yesterday I finished my mojomonday contest. I used my new stamp with 3 of the cutest little girls that say, girls just want to have fun. I used a couple of embellishments including, weaving in red ribbon, making 3D dimensional butterflies, and faux ribbon.

To do the faux ribbon: Apply adhesive to the back of the paper strip, then

partially fold back a loop about 1/2'' along the strip. Repeat the steps then secure the end of the strips.
