Care Package: Crossword Themed




Care Package: Crossword Themed



Hubby's gotten more and more into crosswords and word puzzles.  Which makes a perfect theme for a mini care package!

In the box, I included two crossword books, new pens, a few sweets, hand made cards, and a few hand made crossword puzzles. 






As usually, I got a little carried away with most of the things in this care package. To see the cards that I made specifically for this care package, I'll be posting a new post next week.



Happy creating, and care package creating!

Book Making: Magazine Junk Journal

Image
Book Making: Making a Junk Journal It may be no surprise that I love art journals and junk journals. So I decided to make my own junk journal from scratch, well, from scrap magazine pages. For the main body of the journal, I'm using magazine pages that are glued two together. I then folded the new pages in half and put them into signatures of 4 each. I punched holes into the signatures about an inch apart.  After waxing the embroidery floss, I stitched the signatures together.  For the cover, I was going to use the cover an architecture magazine as it's thicker, but I ended up using two sheets of cut down 12 by 12 inch paper.  I liked the idea of using white paper so that I can properly have my way with the covers.  I can't wait to add gesso and paint and anything else my heart desires to these new pages. Happy creating, and happy paper crafting! For business inquires, contact me ...

Card Making: Star Wars Themed

Image
These cards were included in a Star Wars themed care package.  As with each care pack I sent, I love adding cards that are of a similar theme.  To make these, I started with pre-made, smooth, white cards and envelopes from Core'dinations in size A2; so your standard 4.25 inches by 5.5 inches.  I added patterned paper and then hand lettered the sentiment on the cards.  I finished the cards with going around the edges in a matching colored marker. I went in a very puny direction for these cards.  Hubby loves puns and sometimes I can't help myself either. For the dark side card, I wanted to stick to typical dark side colors: red and black.  I included cookies in the care package and couldn't help but make this card. For the light side cards, I took color inspiration from the green and blue light sabers from the movies, as well as continuing on with puns as the sentiments.  For the...

Projects of 2017 - An Optimistic List.

Image
This is more or less my version of a resolution list.   I never really keep New Year’s resolutions, and rarely make them around the New Year. I feel if you want to have positive change in your life, there is never a better time than the present.   That being said, I do like to list out my projects near the beginning and end of the year as a way of reflecting over what has happened throughout that given year. Quilting – I’d like to start and finish my rain themed, twin-sized quilt that’s been sitting in my closet for some time. The top has been finished and waiting to be hand stitched. I partially like to blame my inability to figure out a pattern of quilting for it as why I’ve put off finishing it for so long. I think I’ve finally settled on a pattern that has renewed my excitement for the project. I’d like to start quilting on my civil war, queen-sized quilt.   I finished the top of this several year long project last summer. Now that w...
