Wall Paper Fun




Hi Everyone,


Today I went to a few different wall paper
stores and they gave me some of the old books
they were going to throw away.

The paper is very strong and works
well for all kinds of projects.

I have the Magnolia Magazine from
February, called " Make a wish".

It has the cutest little baby carriage.

I started out with a few sheets
of wall paper. 



Then cut the pieces out.


As you can see I forgot two of the wheels.
:) LOL :)

Then just put them together and decorate.
They are just the right size
for mints, or a small gift for the baby.
You could also use them as place
settings with every one's name on them.



Or maybe at a baby shower for games or
prizes.



They are very easy to make.



If you would like the pattern
for this adorable little Carriage.




Go to
and check out all the wonderful Magnolia products.

I had so much fun making this little
baby carriage.

Next time you go past the wall paper store,
pop in and ask if they have any old books
they are going to throw away.
It keeps them out of the land fills and that's
 great for the enviorment. Remember this month is going green. This is one little thing we
can do to help save the planet,
and have fun in the process.

Thank you so much for stopping by.
And have a scrappy day.

Crazy Love



Hello crafters,

I hope everyone is enjoying the

These stamps are so much fun!
My brothers birthday was this week.
I like the fact that you can use these stamps
for the guys in our lives.

Today I wanted to show you the
Anniversary card I made.



First I found some wonderful paper in my scrap basket.
The words "Crazy Love" says it all.
I distressed the edges with some
Jumbo Java ink, by Versa Magic
and used the
to secure it down.
Then just rolled the edges toward the center.

I stamped out 9 little hearts and made the
Tic-Tac-Toe game.
I added a little twine and the front was done.

For the inside of the card.


I stamped out Anthony and Burt
" My Heart Belongs To You".
Cut the middle of the heart out. Then I place
the little tiles( by doodle bug designs) on pop dots, 
to show how many
 years they were married.
Added the heart tiles at the bottom and
all finished.

has a wonderful selection of
Anthony and Burt stamps.
And the
is giving away a set of stamps every week.
Pop over and check it out.

Stop in everyday.
These talented lady's will inspire you to make some
wonderful creations of your own.

 I hope you enjoyed the card.

Thank you for stopping by.
And have a scrappy day.

Pyramid Treat Boxes




Hello Crafters,

Today I wanted to share with you
a cute little pyramid box
I found on

Liz gives you the template.
Just print it out and cut out the notches.
I used my
to make the score marks..
And now just decorate!

I thought these would be great
little treat boxes for the Easter basket.









I found some great stickers by
Suzy's Zoo.
Stickers are wonderful! They are
 easy, and fast.
This way if you need to make quite a few
for the kiddo's, you will be done in no time.

You can also decorate the inside.








Then just add the treats.
I filled this egg with M&Ms.


The Easter basket will fill up fast,
 and not a lot of candy. :)
You could also put a small toy, like
a car or  set of stickers for the boys.
And for the girls, hair clips, or earrings.

These little boxes are great for all
kinds of gifts, from toys for Easter, to
gifts for Christmas, hung on the tree.

Pop over to Liz's blog and get your free template. She has so many wonderful
projects. Make a few of these, and
tell me how you decorated yours.

Thank you so much for stopping by.
And have a scrappy day.
