Paper Bag Sunflower

This project uses the same technique as my Paper Bag Snowflakes and my Paper Bag Poinsettia.   Sunflowers are great for Fall.  There's an endless wealth of possibilities with this technique.  And I don't think we're done yet!  You may very well see more of these in future videos! 😉

Pumpkin Spice Brownie Mix Gift-in-a-Jar

One last pumpkin spice recipe before it's gone for the year to make way for peppermint and eggnog.  And although I love peppermint and eggnog, I just had to squeeze pumpkin spice in there one last time. 😉  This pumpkin spice brownie mix gift-in-a-jar will make a wonderful gift for your Thanksgiving hostess.

How To Re-Size Gift Boxes (No Measuring!)

You'll love this quick trick to re-size your gift boxes for Christmas, birthdays, or any occasion.  No more searching the store for a box in the perfect size or shape.  Create your own!  The best part is there is no measuring involved!  Easy peasy!  I've used this trick many many times when I don't have a box that's just right.  It's so easy to create a box about half the size of your original, or even half the width for a long narrow box which you may not even be able to find in the store.  You get two full hinged-lid boxes from every one.. one from the original box bottom and one from the lid.

Santa Gift Bag

Decorate your Christmas gift bags and treat bags to make gift giving a little more fun.  This one is a Santa version, but there are so many possibilities with this!  Not only at Christmas, but you can do this for any occasion.  You could do a character to match a child's birthday party theme such as a princess for a little girl, like my Snow White Treat Bag & Party Favor.  Or a superhero for a little boy.  You could match ANY theme, for birthdays, baby showers, holidays, or any occasion.  Let the occasion or theme be your inspiration and get Craftie!  Have fun and Merry Christmas!

Paper Bag Poinsettia

I created this poinsettia Christmas decoration using the technique from my Paper Bag Snowflakes.  I just used red paper bags instead of white, added berries to the center, and... Voila!!  A snowflake becomes a poinsettia!  I just love this craft!  Expect to see more of this craft in future videos!  My gears are turning with lots of ideas for this.  Let me know if you think of any and I'll try to bring those to life as well.

Glittery Leaves Fall Card

My first cardmaking project using die cuts made with my Cuttlebug!  I used my Cuttlebug and Fall leaf shaped dies with glitter paper in copper, gold, and rose gold to create beautiful leaves as the main feature on the front of the card.  I popped those up on foam tape to give them some dimension.  Inside I stamped a "Happy Thanksgiving" sentiment.  You could also use this design for an invitation for Thanksgiving dinner or any Fall gathering.  It's a simple design but I think the glitter and dimension have a big impact.  Happy Fall!
