Honeycomb Card Bundle of 6, Bumble Bees and Bee Greetings

If you love big bumble bees and honeycomb designs you'll love the new Honeycomb Card Bundle.
 
 
When I designed the first honeycomb pattern for these cards I kept playing around with different layouts. I couldn't make up my mind and pick just one. So I kept them all (or at least these 6) and tucked them all into one big bundle.
 
And where there's a little honeycomb you're bound to find some big ol' Bumble Bees. So I took the bees from the Sunflower Set and gave them the spotlight in their very own Bumble Bee file.
 
 
These 2 Bumble Bees can be easily resized to fit whatever project you're working on.
 
 
They look great on the front of the Honeycomb Cards.
 
 
 
 
The honeycomb cards include some spaces to use your rubber stamps and handwritten words -OR- you can grab this Freebie below and they'll fit perfectly with the cards message tags. This is a pdf so just print right from your home printer onto white cardstock, cut and adhere to the card fronts.
 
 


 
 
 
 


Paper Creations By Kristin shares Inspiration with a Dozen Valentines

Every year, just as Valentines Day is approaching, I love to rediscover all the sweet projects from our design teams, past and present. I always find an abundance of Valentines from Kristin at
PaperCreationsByKristin.blogspot.com. I invited her to be my "Guest Designer" today and I couldn't be happier to share a small sampling of her awesome paper crafting.
 

Valentine Owl Belly Box
Paper Creations by Kristin

When Kristin used the Owl Graduation Belly Box she left off the graduation cap and then added the big heart and message tag to the front of the belly. And I love those little pink bows on her head.
 
 Kristin was our Design Team leader for several years and also paper pieced and photographed many of our product photos during that time. She's awesome!!!!

Valentine Lollipop Holders

Lips are for kisses and smiles and laughter so she turned these lips into a fun lollipop holder.



Love/Heart Card
Paper Creations by Kristin
 Don't you just love this classic look on the Hearts-n-Bows card?
All pinks and reds and lace and love.

 
 
Pencil Box Valentine
Paper Creations by Kristin
 The 3D Pencil Box will hold several candies or other goodies. Instead of using traditional yellows, Kristin chose pink and red papers and added the tag with a fun pun,
"Valentine, You're all 'write' with me."
 
 
 

Pencil Valentines
Paper Creations by Kristin
Pencils are perfect for classroom treats. The dollar stores always have packs of Valentine pencils so it's an inexpensive treat when you have many to make. Kristin used the front of the Pencil Card, used bright Valentine colors for the paper, then cut slits to insert the pencils.



Valentine Baby Cupid Box
Paper Creations by Kristin
Kristin combined a few different cutting files from My Scrap Chick to create this little cupid belly box. It was so darn cute we made a new item, Cupid Belly Treat Box, with all the parts and pieces in one design. It continues to be one for the most popular Valentine box.
 


Valentine Mailbox
Paper Creations by Kristin
Sending love notes and Valentine cards are what the day this day is all about. So of course Mailboxes are a popular symbol for receiving those notes, cards and the small nuggets of chocolate goodies. The Mailbox comes with quick little Valentines too.

 
Kristin is a prolific and highly creative paper crafter and great photographer to boot so I guarantee you will enjoy browsing her blog at Paper Creations by Kristin and facebook page. And she obviously LOVES Valentines Day so I hope you will leave her some love in the comments.
 
Thank you Kristin for allowing us to share your wonderful projects.

SVG files and FABRIC to create Chair Huggers and Kitchen Decor

Alma got an early sweet treat before Halloween. It was the new Cricut Maker. Who knew what fun home decor items you could make with cutting files and fabric.

Alma happily reported that despite her doubts as to how well the Cricut Maker would do with fabric, she was amazed to see how accurate and well it was able to cut all her material.

A small box holds the jars and candles securely and then the front and back fold up to create a carry handle. Lots of room to decorate with your choice of embellishments or use the tags, bows and flowers provided.
