Paperbag Treat Holder

Another craft show creation. I used a lunch size paper bag, folded it, and sewed three sides to create a pouch. Now you can fill it with whatever you want. I think these will be a hit- if not, this is what the neighborhood kids are getting for Halloween! If you want the exact folding dimensions, shoot me an email and I'm happy to help you out.

Halloween Tag

I Know! It's still summer- but, we are getting ready for a craft show in October and I promised myself (and my family) that I would not wait until September to start getting ready. I am loving making these fabric tags. The ghost is from a Quickutz die. I cut some balck fabric I had to make the tags that measure about 3 x 4 1/2. I love the look of using a safety pin to hang it from a jar of some sort. I hope you like it- I will be showing it again once the jars are ready to go.


Thanks for stopping by!

Fabric Tags


Thanks to Michelle Wooderson I am so addicted to finding "vintage" fabric. I have had great luck at the thrift store. I used punches from Stampin' Up for the bird and flower. The butterfly is a Papertrey die. More safety pins to hang them from. I try to make them the same size, more or less. I like that each one is original!


Have a great day

It's Andrea's Birthday

Hi All-
it's Andrea's birthday and she giving a way TONS of great stuff! Not only is she SUPER talented but generous beyond belief. Click on the picture on my side bar to go and wish her a happy bday!

Tags- Lots of them!








I LOVE the tags that Dawn McVey did on her blog. They are SO lovely- so lovely I had to case them!

I used one of the Fillable frames dies to cut a piece of cork. I adhered 4 more layers of c/s to make them more sturdy so I could sew the scraps right on them. The flowers are a die set from Papertrey that I used to cut the felt flower out; Of course a small button to finish it off.
I hope you like these! I have to say, these are my favorite!


Papertrey Inspired...



I love all the new dies from Papertrey Ink. I used the Fillable Phrases stamp and die set. The ribbon are pieces left over from other projects. I also used one of their flower die sets for the felf flower at the bottom.
