Happy Thanksgiving Turkey Box by Michele

Thanksgiving is just around the corner and I needed some decorations for the table and the house. So last time I made some little houses for place cards for the table and now I am making little turkey boxes.  This is coming from the same file Happy Thanks from SVGCUTS.com.  This files works on machines that are compatible with SCAL, like Craftwell eCraft that Kim sells in the store.

This is what it looks like.  The turkey is 3.75" tall, 5 inches wide, and 1"deep. You can put what ever you want inside. I put in a small piece of Styrofoam and the color felt leaves where off  something I found in my craft box. I just used some hot glue on the stick for the leaves.  I used some scraps of different paper I had to make the feathers. The fry box is out of brown and so is the turkey body and head. I used some 3D foam squares for his feet.

Here is the finished products of the turkeys boxes. Hope you enjoyed this Thanksgiving project. Have a Happy Thanksgiving.

Please stop  our store for the Black Friday sale and come back to our blog for the Twelve Days of Christmas staring December 1st.

Valentine card and Shabby Chic Pearl pendant by Ms. Pebbles

This card was so fun to make...and fast! I used all card stock and printed paper from my stash.

 After cutting all of my layers, I used my eCraft Purpleberry to cut the heart. I inked the edges of the base of the card, the pink card stock, the printed paper and the heart. I embossed the word "Love" with some red embossing powder. After I glued all of my pieces down, I added some Stickles to the corners of the red card stock and around the heart. I also added a heart shaped gem as a last minute touch.

I wanted to share this Shabby Chic Pearl pendant I made as a gift to one of my scrapbooking friends. I made a smaller one some time ago and added to the "Altered Box". There's a link to my tutorial on my blog.

Thanks for looking! Here's a list of the supplies you can use to create a card like the one above.

Teacher's rock!

Hello everyone! Today I made a card for youngest darling daughter Sunshyne's teacher, using My Mind's Eye School Daze paper pad!

I wanted to do a little something for her to let her know that I appreciate the extra help she gives my daughter.

The sentiment says, "Teachers make the little ones count". I love how everything coordinates so well with this pad. I only added 3 pieces of solid card stock from my stash to create this card.

After fussy cutting the pencil out, I used my alphabet rubber stamps with some embossing ink to add little extra touch.

Thanks for looking and here's a list of items you can use to make a card like this. Remember, if we are out, ask Kim if she can order it for you. :)

Accordian Birthday Card by Pebbles

I made this card for my sisters birthday. She is always inspiring and encouraging me, so I wanted to do something extra special for her this year. Something that is just as bright and cheerful as her personality! I started with the base construction using 3 different, bright colored pieces of card stock. I made the flower embellishment using my eCraft Basic 12-Purpleberry, cutting out the circle, the pink flower background and the daisy. I used a Say it Pearls Flower Center to embellish the center of the flower. I applied Fruit Punch Stickles as a border and Firefly Stickles as some accent dots around the flower. 

For the inside left panel, I used the Fruit Punch Stickles again as a border around the butterfly and the word "Happy". I also used my eCraft Basic 12-Purpleberry to cut the butterfly and accented it with a couple of rhinestones. 

For the inside center panel I used some printed patterned paper and a couple of dimensional birthday stickers to suit the theme of the card. 

For the inside right panel, I applied Diamond Stickles as a border and used some printed paper and card stock to match. Here is the completed card.

This was a very fun and festive card to make, I hope she likes it!
