Terrific Tuesday Challenge - 3D Project

Happy Tuesday! Can you believe it's November already?! :/

This weeks TTC is a 3D project with twine and/or a button...


I decided to do a little pillow box treat container. My son LOVES Fishy Cracker so I wanted to use them and I think they are just too cute to hide behind paper. So, I went to Michaels and bought a packet of clear acylic sheets (they are in the paper isle and come in an 8.5" x 11" pad). I use a strip of patterned paper and a strip of solid cardstock to make my wrapper. I used a sentiment from SMS Amusing Animals set (our VERY 1ST set!), bakers twine and my brand new 1.5" circle and scallop circle squeeze punch by Fiskars - I'll have to do a "Haul" post about those later. LOL!

I hope you enjoyed my project today. I had fun with this challenge - it really made me think "out of the box". I hope you will all come and play along with this weeks Terrific Tuesday Challenge!

Cristina's Blogaversery Hop!

Hello, everyone! Thank you for joining me today to celebrate the 1 year blogaversary of Crafting with Cristina! You should have arrived from the FABULOUS Liz's Paperloft, if not and you would like to go back and start from the beginning click HERE. :)

Cristina asked us to create a project inspired by one of her creations. For me, one of the biggest things that I have gotten from Cristina is a love for Lettering Delights SVG files. So I decided to use a newly purchased file to create something for you today....


I thought this little puppy was so cute, he just "begged" me to make him! LOL I purchased these thin magnetic snaps a while back to use on boxes. I figured this little box was as good as any project to give them a try. I put one between the flap of the box and the puppy's face. The second one is covered by a small square of paper on the inside of the box. The are hidden so as not to detract from the "cuteness" of the puppy. I am quite pleased with how they work, just thought I'd share. :)

I did a little doodling, added some Diamond Glaze to his nose and stamped a cute little saying (Amusing Animals from Scrappy Moms Stamps) on his tummy.

I hope you enjoyed my little project, the next stop on the hope is the very crafty Paula!
