Gorjuss Girls Happy Mail Projects

So were going to mix it up a bit over the next few days while I share with you a Happy Mail project I did last year featuring Gorjuss Girls.  Don't you love how sweet these girls are.  Over the next few days, you will be seeing different projects from the picture above.  For today's post the Loaded Banner from the Happy Mail will be featured.
 

The idea for this loaded banner came from the Loaded Envelope Galore and More Facebook Group.  Although I could not participate in the swap, this project was something on the "to do" list.  Isn't it darling!

You will find a tutorial for this by Kay Hutchings Hafen on YouTube.   You can get an idea how to put this together by watching and then do your own thing like I did.  I used my Cricut to cut out the banners.  This Loaded Banner is 7 inches long.  

Prima Rose Quartz paper was used in this project.  It's beautiful and I had a couple pads and most of it was used.  These Girls are fun to put together.  All the flowers you see are hand crafted as well.  It's one of my favorite things to create.

Hope you enjoyed this banner share.  Be sure to check back tomorrow as I will be sharing more projects from this Happy Mail.  Thanks for stopping by.  Hugs and Blessings!

Spellbinders Charming Cottage House Warming Favors

Just wanted to share these super cute Spellbinder Charming Cottage die House Warming Favors that I made for my sons House Warming Party.  These little boxes are just darling and were the perfect party touch.  My son purchased the cutest little house and these were perfect.

Craft Cardstock was used for the main color.  White, black and gold trim really compliment the kraft.  Everyone loved these tiny house.  It's a great die to have in your stash.  Hope you enjoyed my project share today.  Until next time friends, Happy Crafting!!!

Gorgeous girl tag

Don't you just love "Gorjuss Girls"!!!  I am so smitten by these darling girls.  When I was a young girl, I loved playing with paper dolls....maybe that's why I enjoying paper piecing these cuties.  The other day I went to the store to see if I could purchase some paper dolls.  They are not to be found.  I wanted to introduce my little Granddaughter to them.  I am going to have to get creative with my dies and make her some!!!

This is the glassine bag that was altered to hold the beautiful tag in.  But opsy!!!!  I see that something must have happened when I was editing this photo.  Those black lines through the flowers are not supposed to be there.  hahaha  

See....I told you....this one shows the tag and the bag together and the roses are perfectly fine.  Oh my goodness, you never know when something is going to go wrong.  Thank you so much for stopping by today and viewing this project.  Hope you have a wonderful day.  Until next time....Happy Crafting!!!

Tea in Paris

Hello friends.  Today, I would like to share with you a "Tea and Paris" assemble that was created for the Loaded Envelopes Galore and More Swap group.  Don't you just love those Brenda Walton Teacups.  That die is one of my favorite.  Let's not forget about the Teapot die too!  That is a Sizzix Bigz XL Pro die.  Both of these dies are now retired, but I adore creating with them.

What is "Tea in Paris" without the Eiffel Tower!!!  This is little number was created using "Summertime in Paris" Cricut Cartridge, a project I've wanted to tackle for some time.  Just love the way it turned out.

Isn't this tea pot adorable.  Loving those Prima Papers used for this project.  The black, white, and pink is perfect for a tea in Paris theme.

This is the back of the teapot decorated with bling from my stash.  

These are three tags that are included inside the teapot.  They were created with some Cottagecutz dies that are in my stash.  How cute is that tiny Eiffel Tower!

This Julie Nutting Stamp is perfect with her beautiful dress and hat.  Don't you just love those stamps!  Thanks so much for stopping by today to view this project.  Hope you like it and are inspired for some "Tea in Paris" of your own.  Until next time.....Happy Crafting!

Sizzix Gorguss Girl Trinket Box for Mother's Day

Just one more Mother's Day project to share with your today and its a whopper!!!!!  This Sizzix Book & Pages Trinket Box die is a winner in my eyes.  Oh how I love this die.  It is so fun to make and put together.  You'll be seeing more of these in the future.

Just had to use these sweet little Gorjuss girls to decorate the book create to fit inside the box.   All the stamps have been colored with copic markers.  There is a acetate window on the door of the box.

This is page two and three inside the book.  The paper used for this project is from Prima called Rose Quartz. 

 This is page 3 & 4.  Each Gorjuss Girl is as sweet as the next.  A variety of different dies were used on each page.  Don't you love die cutting.  It's so fun!!!

 Here is page 5 & 6 of the book.  I didn't make it too embellished so that it would fit in the box.

 Thank you so much for stopping by today to view this project.  I have more coming up in the next few days.  I have been having fun in the craft room.  Until next time, Happy Crafting!!!

CottageCutz Bee Hives Memorydex Card

 Have you tried Memorydex cards?  Wow, they are little pieces of art that you can use the backs of for journaling and pictures.  Or you can just line them up in a Memorydex box and flip through them just to look at how pretty they are.  Even for inspiration for your next project.

They are so fun to create.  There are at least two groups on Facebook where people go to swap and trade these cuties.  One group is called the Memory Dex Swaps and the other is called Rolodex Card Addiction.  There are even tutorials on Youtube where you can make your own boxes with straws to keep these in.

Thanks so much for stopping by today to check out my project.  I am trying to get better at posting here.  If you like this card, I can post my February Valentine one.  Also, check out my YouTube channel "Carol Hurlock" as we have a Cottagecutz Easter Blog hop where you can when some fabulous gift certificates to The Scrapping Cottage.  Happy Crafting!

Baby Shower Decorations

Greetings everyone! Back today with the last of the Shower decorations and a few pictures of the Baby Shower.  This banner was created on the Cricut with Mother's Day Floral Bouquet and Fontastic Fonts cartridge.  A fun project and here are all the banners that I made:

 Here is the banner that says Sweet Baby Girl outside the food tent.

The other banner with "Emma" was inside the tent.  This is how the decorations from previous post on my blog were set up.  I created the cake and placed Rosettes in the center that I made as the cake topper.  The cake plate is the type you can thread ribbon through to match your cake.  I tied tulle to make a tutu on the base....super cute.

 Here is the back yard before the guest arrived.  It was so pretty.  There were tiki torches for the evening.    If you would like to see more details and get products used, there are two videos to watch that are attached here.  Thanks for stopping by.  Happy Crafting!
