Acrylic Post It Note Holders

I made these using all sorts of bit and pieces, and I think they turned out pretty cute.

Using Acrylic 4 x 6 and 5 x 7 photo frames, I first cut cardstock to size. I added whatever decorative touchs that I had in my scraps of ribbon, stickers, brads, and felt flowers.

Many are just "pretty" but some have funny sayings about work, such as "A Cubicle is Just A Padded Cell Without A Door".

M & M Stackers

Just finished 70 of these M & M Stackers for my November Craft Fair!

Using 1" x 8" cello bags, I used plain M & M's to fill the bags in various color arrangements. After that, I closed them with the self-sealing strip and then used small, hair rubber bands to further seal them.

I made tags and tied them around the top using ribbon, and, VOILA.... cute little gifts for for friends, family, co-workers and teachers!

Baby Shower Thank You Gifts

I just made these popcorn sliders as baby shower thank-you gifts. I used extra cardstock and then printed paper as a decorative overlay. Then I added a message of "Thanks for Poppin' By" and a scalloped decorative baby in a crib. After adding a package of microwave popcorn, I packaged then in cello bags. Hopefully, my friend will like these as "party favors", and who knows? I might get some good press out of them.

To make these, you need:

8 1/2 X 11 CARDSTOCK
Decorative paper
Snail or other adhesive
Scissors or cutting implement of your choice
Computer-generated message (for Christmas: Just Poppin' By To Wish You A Happy Holiday)
Stamped embellishment and scallop punch
Cello bags

Soldered Art Pendants..

Here is a picture of some of my soldered art pendants. I took a workshop and learned the basics, and then made about 15. All of the square pendants are double-sided, so the majority have something more abstract on one side and (in my case) most of the other sides are dogs :)
(I am a little dog-crazy, and dog items sell well in the Denver area)




These are time-consuming, but beautiful when they are done.
These will be one of the many things that I will be selling during the fall/holiday craft fairs.
