So, these lyrics were stuck in my head when I created this 3D shadowbox frame. I used papers from the Club Ruby kit for January. I border punched a swirly irridescent paper for the background, cut the crown using papers from the kit and Summer in Paris on the Cricut. I blinged up the crown with a LOT of rhinestones! Letter stickers were used at the top and bottom, and initial playing cards (K&Co.) were used to spell out King. The crown was then attached with a double layer of foam dots. It was then put into the black shadowbox frame. Love this! It now hangs happily in my office.Miles of Smiles,
This origami star ornament was created using papers from the Club Ruby kit for December. I added the flower, also from the kit, to the center, and rhinestones to the flower and the points of the top layer. I threaded some red metallic thread through the top as a hanger.Miles of Smiles,
This door "wreath" was created using the Club Ruby kit for November. The scallop paper is from the kit but I added another patterned cardstock from the kit to the center. The owls were cut using papers from the kit too. I added velvet letters, chipboard pumpkins, and velvet flowers with gold brads.Miles of Smiles,
I designed this mirror for Club Ruby using the October kit. I used a square mirror as the base. I cut the Halloween cardstock along the outer border. I cut out the keyhole in the center so the mirror shows through. I punched black flowers and added them to the vines. I created black rolled paper roses for the corners, accented with paper leaves. I also added a paper rose to Alice's hat.Miles of Smiles,
This is a gift bag I made for Club Ruby using the October kit. It was such an awesome kit, with Graphic 45's Halleen in Wonderland papers. (You all know I'm a sucker for Graphic 45!) I cut the round gift bag out of Plantin Schoolbook using rust cardstock. The flocked harlequin paper is from the kit, as is the image. I made a flower from baker's twine, and added a sticker, some paper leaves, a paper pumpkin, and buttons. I strung beads across the handle. The other side of the bag is decorated too.Miles of Smiles,
This circle card was made from the Club Ruby kit for September. Teal cardstock topped with two different patterned cardstock, brown ribbon, ticket, button, paper flower, and embellishment cut from another patterned cardstock from the kit.Miles of Smiles,
Hi! I thought I would upload some of my designs for Club Ruby. You can see the fabulous kits that are available each month, and the amazing creations that the designers come up with. They are very talented ladies!! This card was made with the June kit. It is a scallop card, cutting around the circles on the patterned cardstock and attaching it to a card base. I added the transparent plastic flowers and the journal sticker from the kit. I thought I could stamp a sentiment on the journal sticker when I'm ready to give it away, like "Happy Birthday," "Thinking of You," or "Miss You."Miles of Smiles,
A birthday card for my FIL. Embossed frame and background. Deer cut on the Cricut.
Miles of Smiles,
Hi all! I have been furiously crafting in my office making all sorts of things. :) I have many Thanksgiving cards to show you. Also, a Christmas Countdown calendar that is made from a shirt box! Very cool. How about some Christmas cards and other Christmas projects? I just have to find a minute to sit down and post it all for you.
I just want to say how thankful I am to all of you who follow my blog of creations or just randomly pop on by. I enjoy sharing with you, and am glad that you find some enjoyment here too. :)
