Got Moxxie?

Valentine's Treat w/ Muse Amelia

Today I've got a fun Valentine's Day treat for you! I found these cute little test tubes in the $1 bins at Michael's.

 

 

 I didn't know what I was going to do with them but I knew I just had to make something! This is what I came up with! 

 

 

Adorable! Right!? I found a great tutorial on how to make the holders over at Splitcoast Stampers. Then I used some of Moxxie's Grid Iron and Tiny Dancer lines to make it all pretty. 

 

 

**I followed the directions on where to score and cut to create the box but did NOT begin to actually glue it all together until I had finished decorating it first! 

 

I cut a strip of designer paper about 1/8" to a 1/4" smaller than back of the box and used my corner round edge punch and did a bit of distressing on it before I adhered it down to my box. Then I cut out a strip to wrap around the middle of the box part and distressed it a bit too. I tied together two small pieces of pink & brown bakers twine and stapled them down to the box. I punched out a cute little heart of Moxxie's Tiny Dancer line and layered on a Mambi sticker- love, using 3d-dots for dimension.

 

 

On the test tube measured around the test tube cut a strip of designer paper the length and width I needed. Leaving about 1/2" extra on the length to overlap. Before wrapping it around I found the middle of my strip punched a heart out and taped a small piece pink paper behind so the pink would peek through the punched out heart. Then I traced around it with a bronze Sharpie. Once I adhered the strip around the test tube I used some more pink & brown bakers twine to tie around.

 

 

Such a fun little treat for someone special! 

Thanks for stopping by! :)

Winterland Vintage Ornaments w/ Muse JenT

Hi all, i am stopping by to share some fun handmade ornaments i made using a large diecut (adorable snowman) and fussy cutting out images (sled and ice skates)  from the winterland paper.

 

 

I first, punched and cut them out of the paper and punched holes near the tops where i want my ribbon to tie onto. Next, i placed the images on wax paper to keep from sticking while drying cause here is the fun part. Squeeze an even thick layer of dimensional glue over the entire image. (Tip-do not shake the dimensional glue as not to get bubbles and keep tip down in glue while covering images to keep a smooth cover).

Then, i sprinkled iridescent fine glitter to the wet glue. I then repeated on the other images and let dry overnight then covered the other side with just the glue to make for a nice thick dimensional ornament.

 

 

Lastly, i added a pretty ribbon to each and hung on my tree. I just love the vintagey look they have to them!

 

 

These would make great gifts too! Make sure to get your hands on some winterland so you can give this a try. Thanks for stopping by and happy creating!

Time for another Holiday! w/ Muse Julie

Here we go into another Holiday!

I've started to get things together to decorate and I thought I would share a cute floating picture frame of Christmas photos that would be a lovely table decoration or gift.

Believe or not I used Moxxie Happy Pawlidays.

I also used Moxxie great 6 x 6 die cuts for the background.

A few of my own diecuts and ribbon...

a few stickers, ( you can't even tell this sticker says "meowy Christmas")

and a beautiful display of Holiday cheer!

Happy Pawlidays,

Julie

Thanksgiving Table Setting w/ Muse Wendi

Have you seen our latest challenge? It's an easy one, enter on this post.

 

Hello and good morning...

With the upcoming Thanksgiving holiday fast approaching, I knew the Autumn Glory line was perfect to make some place settings for the holiday. I'm usually the host in my family, so I like to make something decorative to put out.
I decided to make a simple napkin holder and name place settings to add to the table.

First I made a napkin holder to add to each napkin in the place settings:

And some name tags for each person at the table. Everyone always feels special when they know they have a place at the table.

 

I took a 4x4 piece of cardstock, and folded it in half. I decorated the one side with a scallop punched border, added a center piece of paper. Then punched a 1.5" circle and fussy cut out a leaf from the the Foliage in Flight paper. Then added the names with brown alphas..

Pretty quick and easy for any hostess to add that personal touch to the dinner...

Thanks sooo much for stopping by and have a great day!!!! Happy Thanksgiving!!!

Halloween Candle Wraps w/ Muse JenT

Enter to WIN these awesome papers HERE!

Hi all, jen t here.
Today i am stopping by to share a fun project that you can do to dress up your candles for Halloween. It is a great way to use up your paper scraps and stickers too.

Grab a pillar candle or 2 and your Zombie Attack collection.



Cut and wrap a strip of paper around and glue at the seam then layer on some more strips or stickers to your liking and finish with a tied piece of twine.

Have a great day and happy creating!! :)

Fallen Angel "Lorena" w/ Muse Julie

These papers are part of our Halloween giveaway! Find the details here.

Hopefully, through Moxxie you have seen several different ways to use Moxxie's  Zombie Attack paper line and stickers. There have been lots of great ideas.

I wanted to do one more from this line and get my hands dirty.

Literally. (Making blood...not as easy as it looks.)

So here is the final project. Another stamp girl made into a Zombie.

The best part for me is the paper used for skin, it kind of blends into the background but up close it gives off an eerie, veiny texture.

A few small embellishments and the sticker speaks for itself.

Time to clean up,

Julie
