Goodie bags

Hey Yall and Happy Tuesday!

I have been making some goodie bags for my sons' teachers at school.  I decided this year I was not going to make them all the same but rather try to use some of my scraps.  PREFECT!!  The only thing I do not like about make these bags is I always eat too much of the candy!  LOL

Most of the papers are from "My Mind's Eye" Christmas collections.

I used several punches and stamps.  Some of the stamps I am not sure the name and others are from "Close to My Heart."  The bags I got from a scrap store years ago.

I hope Yall like it!

Gingerbread Man

Hey Yall,

I bought a gingerbread man chipboard book at Michael's for $1.00.  (Pretty sweet I thought.)  I decided I am going to make ornaments out of them instead of a book.  (because using it for what it is made for is just crazy LOL)

The brown paper I covered it with was some cheaper paper I bought just for projects like this so I don't have to use my thick cards stock.  I used some old red sheer ribbon with white dots as the bow and the hanger.  There is no name on the spool of ribbon, sorry about that.

I used my imaginisce and green bling for the jelly gum drops.  The stamp for the face came from Peachy Keen Stamps "Everyday Character Face Assortment."  How stinking cute is that face!

I doodled with a white jelly roll pen and inked the edges with Tim Holtz "walnut stain" ink.

If yall are going to a Christmas party of any kind or even for the office folks this would make a great and easy gift.  You can write a message on the back and the year.....how easy and cute!

I hope Yall like it!

Snow flake tag

Hey Yall!!

Here is a tag I made...really just messing around and having fun.  It measures 4 3/4 x 2 1/4.  I used Tim Holtz "faded jeans" ink, Sizzix "snowflake #15" die, and Peachy Keen Stamps "Everyday Character Faces".  The Stamp at the bottom is an odd ball stamp I had but not really sure the name.

I also used "Waterfall" Stickles and some blue sting.  I doodles around the edges with a white jelly roll pen and also added some snow here and there.

I love the faces!!

1st full Zentagle journal page

I know my page looks like a beginner and that's OK with me.  I love it anyway.  BUT  I am going to have to get new pens LOL

I started but placing a red sticky tape circle on the page and traced the inside.  Then connected the circles together with lines going all ways.  After that I began filling each space with what ever came to mind.

The journaling I got from "Buddha's Little Instruction Book".   The doodles are done with a silver jelly roll pen and the writing is with a mint green jell pen.

I hope Yall like it!!

Zentangle

This is my first attempt(s) at Zentangle.  If you have not hear of it her is a website to check it out.  http://www.zentangle.com/  I simply love it!  I am sure we all have done it but man oh man is it relaxing. 

I already had a book of black paper and some really cool white and silver jelly roll pens.  The only problem I have noticed so far is I feel an addiction coming on. LOL

I think I am going to try to fill a whole page this weekend.  I will post it when I'm done.  I might even use some color but I love the silver.  It not as bright in the picture but the silver and white on the black paper is amazing.
