Chinese New Year Blog Hop January 22nd-23rd

2012-01-22T23:39:00.000-08:00

Year of the Dragon

Ni hao and welcome to the Chines New Year Blog Hop! This hop is in honor of Guan, the little boy April's family is adopting from Taiwan. To celebrate his culture, we want to share some Chinese-inspired projects with you! If you arrived here from Maria's Blog then you are in the right place! If you just joined us, please go back to April's blog atwww.curlsandgrins.blogspot.com to see everyone's amazing creativity!

For my last project to share with you on this hop is a card =D

I made the lantern paper piecing by taking a circle punch and cutting the yellow/Gold cardstock into strips. I highlighted the edges using a Copic marker and then arranged the strips on a black strip of cardstock paper.

We have some great blog candy to offer from April Nourse and PSA Essentials.

To be eligible, you must simply comment on each blog on each day's post. We'd love for you to become a follower of each of our blogs too. If you are on Facebook I would love to meet you and have you following along with me at my fanpage...here is the link:

Chinese New Year Blog Hop January 22-23, 2012

2012-01-21T23:04:00.000-08:00

Year of the Dragon

For my project, I created a "Red Envelope"

It is custom for elders to give a gift of money to a child for New Year's in a red envelope. By doing so it is to bring you and the child good luck, prosperity and happiness. The color red is a symbol of happiness. Traditional red envelopes are often decorated with gold Chinese characters like happiness and wealth. There is a custom way to give and receive this red envelope as well. When giving someone a red envelope, use both hands to present the red envelope to the recipient. The red envelope is also received with both hands.The recipient of a red envelope at Chinese New Year or on his or her birthday should not open it in front of the giver. This is for respect.

We have some great blog candy to offer from April Nourse and PSA Essentials.

Welcome to Round One of the Christmas Cards & Cookies Blog Hop! You should have come from Robin's blog. If you are starting here and wish to hop from the beginning of the hop, please visit Dena’s blog : http://missdjones.blogspot.com

There was so much response to the Christmas Cards & Cookies Blog Hop that it had to be split between two weekends. This is Round One and begins Saturday, Dec. 3rd, continuing through Sunday, Dec. 4th. Round Two will be held next weekend. We have a talented group of women who love papercrafting and baking. Each of them is sharing a recipe for a yummy Christmas treat along with a Christmas card or tag. Hopefully, you’ll pick up some great ideas for your own Christmas gift giving this season. So, grab a cup of coffee, sit back, and enjoy!

For my cookie project I have to share with you we made "Sugar Cut Out Cookies"

(recipe posted below the card) My sons helped me make them and we
are creating little tins with these cookies as gifts to the students in my
sons class...I posted a picture of how the favor tin turned out.

INGREDIENTS:

2/3 cup shortening

2/3 cup butter

1 1/2 cups white sugar

2 eggs

2 teaspoons vanilla extract

3 1/2 cups all-purpose flour

2 teaspoons baking powder

1 teaspoon salt

1/3 cup granulated sugar for decoration

DIRECTIONS:

1.	Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
2.	In a medium bowl, cream together the butter, shortening and sugar. Stir in the eggs and vanilla. Combine the flour, baking powder and salt, stir into the creamed mixture until dough comes together. Roll dough into walnut sized balls and roll the balls in sugar. Place them on an unprepared cookie sheet about 2 inches apart.
3.	Bake cookies 10 to 12 minutes in the preheated oven, until bottom is light brown. Remove from baking sheets to cool on wire racks.

Here is my project I would like to share with you today =D For the projects I made for you today...I took a different angle. Instead of scrapping about turkeys, pilgrims and the like, I decided to make layouts of what I am thankful for: My Family

So I have a two page layout of the "Joys of My Life" layout to share with you

and a one page layout of "My family portrait" I would like to share.

Here is the look at the entire two page layout

Page One

Page Two

For this layout I used papers from the DCWV Taj Mahal paper stack. I also used

Prima flowers, Imaginise flowers and journal cards from Reminisce's "Unwritten Journal Tablet" the metal alpha's I had purchased from Joann fabrics. The distress metal frame is from Making Memories. The chipboard frame was a bare chipboard frame also from Imaginise.

Here is the second layout I have to share with you:

Thank you so much for stopping by along this blog hop I hope you are getting lots of inspiration and ideas from all these talented ladies!

If you are not a follower of my blog yet I would love for you to become one and stay in touch =D I also have a Facebook Fanpage if you would like to stop by and "like" my page to follow along with me I would be thrilled. Here is the link:

I have something different in store for you today! I love the Christmas holiday season and all the decorations, music, and the ambiance of excitement all around. To me, the Christmas season begins the day after Halloween lol! If the decision were left to me...I would have the Christmas tree up the day after Halloween hahaha! So on November 1st I brought out the Christmas tree box and my husband rolled his eyes and said "Seriously?" and I told him that I had this bright idea of making it a "Thankful tree" =) I could have my tree up and turn it into a Thanksgiving tradition.

I made leaves with my Cricut machine using the "Accent Essentials" cartridge and I put K and Company 3D sticker accents on them of things we are thankful for. I then added ribbon and hung it on the tree. Each day we add more leaves to the tree as we talk about what we are thankful for each day. The garland this was a HUGE undertaking lol!! It was simple to make but took 3 straight days from morning to night to finish it. I bought 4 yards of three different material and cut the material into 7inch by 1 inch strips. I tied them into little pinwheels with 4 strips for each one. I have a 7ft tree and it took all 12 yards of the material lol!! I loved how it turned out though and WOW I can't stop looking at our tree.

Thank you so much for stopping by my blog along this hop! Please come back tomorrow

and I will have more to show and tell =)

There is a GRAND PRIZE at the end of this hop from our hop sponsor and remember to become a follower of each blog and leave a comment as well on each blog for your chance to win =D
