Just a Note - Miss Kate Cuttable DT Day!

Hello all!  Thank you for joining me today for my Miss Kate Cuttables project.  Before I share I wanted to remind you to go and grab your Freebie of the Day!

For this week's project I decided to make a little back to school craft...

I made a little easel post-it note holder - I just started working at my younger kids school and wanted to make something for the teacher I am working with.  I think it turned out so cute that I think I will make them for the kids classroom teachers too.  I used MKC Worm in Apple, 2 patterned papers and one solid paper, 2 small gems and a stamp from Scrappy Moms Stamps The Charmed Life stamp set. The face is from PKS Sweet on You face set.

To make the holder you need following papers

1 - 3 1/8" x 9 1/2" - scored at 3 1/2", 7", 8", and 9". (The green easel base in my project.)
2 - 4 1/8" x 6 1/4" - Scored along the long side at 1/2" from both sides.  Rotate 90 degrees and score at
      2 1/4", 2 3/4" and 5"(only to the long score lines - this gives you the open part at the top where the               notepad sits). - (The lined paper in my project.)
3 - 3 1/8" x 3 1/2" (The green polka dot paper in my project)

Fold the 3 thin folds on the easel as show above and glue the last, thin strip to to form the easel.  Cut the 2 small squares one on each side of the bottom, which is the thin section.   Also, cut off the sides that you only partially scored  for the top. Fold and adhere to form the box for your post it not pad.  Glue in the rectangle  (the green polka dot paper in my project) to the inside of the box. Finally, glue your box to the easel - done!

If that totally confused you - hopefully, it didn't - here is a good video - http://www.todoconpapel.com/latina-crafter-blog-hop-tercer-aniversario-video-tutorial/.  It's in Spanish but you can see where she cuts and folds to go along with the measurements above.  :)

I hope you enjoyed my project for today!  Have a wonderful one!

Terrific Tuesday Challenge - Autumn Blessings

Happy Fall, one and all!  For this week's Autumn themed TTC I created this little card...

My little crow and his pumpkins are from Miss Kate's Cuttables - I just love her files, they are so stinkin' cute!!  I created the little sentiment flag in MTC and added a little brown jute.  The sentiment is from Scrappy Moms Stamps The Charmed Life set.  I just love how this card turned out - don't you love when that happens?!  :)

Come play along with us and link up your Autumn project for a chance to win a Scrappy Moms Stamps set of your choice!

Terrific Tuesday Challenge - Shape Up!

Hi everyone - I hope you all had a wonderful Labor Day!  :)

This weeks TTC at Scrappy Moms Stamps is a "Shape" challenge.  Here is my project...

I really had fun with this cut - it's super easy and I think it turned out cute!  This is the watermelon from Simply Charmed.  I hid the face layer so that I could use a Peachy Keen Princess Faces stamp.  I welded two of the base layers together to make the dark green card base.  

I added a little Honeydew Twine and a small gem in the center of the bow for a little bling.  "Once in a Melon" is from SMS The Charmed Life stamp set.  

I hope you enjoyed my card and that you will come join us and create your one "Shape" project!  

Have a wonderful week!  

Terrific Tuesday Challenge - Back to School

It's that time again - Back to School!  Here in AZ our kiddos go back by the beginning of August - some as early as the end of July.  I guess they figure that it's so darn hot the kids might as well be in an air-conditioned school all day.  LOL

For our Terrific Tuesday Challenge this week we want to see your Back to School related projects.  Here's mine...

It's a dry erase board - a teacher gift that I made for both my girls teachers.  I included a dry erase pen - not shown - that way they can use it right away!  I used ruler print ribbon (that I've had in my stash forever!) to make the bow.  The tag shape is from Once Upon a Princess - I just made the one slightly larger for the shadow. "Just a Note" is from Scrappy Moms Stamps The Charmed Life set.  For the A,B,C blocks at the bottom I used SMS Alphabet Soup stamp set and Alphabet Soup die.  I used the die to cut 2 layers - one of cardboard and one of cardstock so they would be sturdy.  I masked off the numbers on the stamps so that only the letters would stamp.  I use hot glue to adhere everything to the black 5x7 picture frame (from Target).  

I hope you enjoyed my project for today - come join us and link up your Back to School project for a chance to win a Scrappy Moms Stamps set of your choice!

Terrific Tuesday Challenge - Father Day

Hi all!  Sorry this is up so late - it's been one of those weeks already.  LOL

Anyway, here is my project for this weeks Terrific Tuesday Challenge...

I made my little shirt by watching this video.   I cut my paper at 5" x 7" instead of 4" x 6" for this project. The card base is from Lacey Labels and the cute little tie is cut from Simply Charmed.  I used a PKS face on the know of the tie - isn't it CUTE?!  The sentiment is from SMS The Charmed Life.

Please come by and play along with us and be sure to check out the other Father's Day projects from our great Design Team! :)
