Guest Designer- The Greene Family & Crafts Day 1

Hello Everyone!  My name is Jamie from The Greene Family & Crafts and I am your Guest Designer for the week.  I am so excited, this is my first time Guest Designing and I really hope you enjoy the projects that I have made to share with you this week. 

For today I have made a really simple goodie bag.  I am a stay at home mother to 3 amazing kids and so I enjoy making little things for my kids.


I took a plain brown lunch bag and covered the front of it with pattern paper.  I found an older Making Memories sentiment to use along the side of the goodie bag.  I cut the adorable paper doll with my Cricut.  Now here comes the fun part.  I wanted to dress the doll for Halloween so I used the Cottage Cutz Pumpkin trio die for her outfit!  I die cut the same pumpkin twice so that I could layer the middle and add some dimension.  I used one of the other pumpkins to cut the top off  and use for a hat.  I stamped her face using the Wide eyed kids face assortment stamps.  To finish it off I tied a bow around the top and added a Hinge clip from Tim Holtz. 

I hope you enjoyed today's project!  I want to say a HUGE Thank you to Peachy Keen for allowing me this opportunity to be a Guest Designer for this week!  As you know each Guest Designer is given the opportunity to do a giveaway and I have chosen the Cottage Cutz Pumpkin Trio as my giveaway this week!



To be entered all you have to do is leave a comment Here or on my Blog.  I will see you tomorrow with another Halloween idea!

Guest Designer - Houses Built of Cards - Day 5

Wow! What a fun week it has been! This is Heather from Houses Built of Cards with my 5th, and final post for the week. I have had so much fun! I'm still going to be busy...yesterday was my 1 year blogiversary, and the celebration is tomorrow! I have a short blog hop planned, several great giveaways (including some more Peachy Keen Stamps!), and a very special introduction for you. Would love it if you stopped by for the fun!

So for my last post, I decided to use 2 more of my favorite sets of face stamps: Princess Face Assortment and Wide Eyed and Bush Tailed Assortment. I used a cut from Meow Lite Cricut cartridge. Doesn't that little cat make you want to laugh?!?!?


Kind of reminds me of my daughter carrying around our cat...he really loves to be petted and loved, but he HATES to get carried by anyone! So he always looks a little annoyed at the inconvenience! Here you can see how I pop-dotted the image from the background.


Added lots of inking and doodling with my white gel pen, and a sentiment from My Creative Time stamps. Also used a Fiskars edge punch along the side of the background paper to make it look like a notebook page.




And tomorrow morning I will be drawing the lucky winner of the prize Peachy Keen allowed me to select to giveaway - a $25.00 gift certificate!!! So make sure and leave a comment here and on the my blog - Houses Built of Cards for a chance to win!!! I also have a few bonus past projects posted on my blog using these same sets!
