Happy New Years!!!!!

Happy New Years!!!!

We made it through the year 2017!

Are you ready for 2018?

For this cute layout for our celebration picture memories, 

I used parts from 2 different files. 

The files I used were Cutie KaToodles - It's Midnight Somewhere and Cutie KaToodles - New Year Bears.

For this layout, I used the printable JPEG part of the file.

Please be safe with your celebrations tomorrow night

and we will see you next year.

Guitar Man by Bloobel

I have a cute new digital stamp to share with you from

Bloobel.

He could be used for so many things.

I left the sentiment off of this card until I 

have a person to give it to and can use it

for the occasion at the time.

Guitar Man 

(It really hasn't been cut crooked. The card was

opened a snitch when I snapped the picture.)

The plastic buttons are from Jesse James and Co. 

called Dress Me Up Music.

Wishing you a magical birthday

Another year has come.

Who doesn't have a need for birthday cards?

I chose a cute digi from 

Bloobel Stamps and Coloring Pages

called Wicked Wizard to

help me mix up a Happy Birthday to a sweet

deserving person.

We're So Eggcited! It's Christmas!!!

The day has finally come!

It's Christmas!!!

To help save those precious Christmas memories,

I have a layout:

We're So Eggcited: 

It's Christmas!!!

I used the files Lil Hatchems - Christmas Koala 

and Lil Hatchems - Christmas Raccoon

to help me make it.

I hope you all have a safe and Merry Holidays

in the coming days.

(and make some time for crafting)

And a Kadoodle Bug or Two in the Tree

I am still creating Christmas Tree decorations.

This time I have used:

Cutie KaToodles - Santa Ornament Bear

Cutie KaToodles - Bottoms Up Santa Mouse

PG Santa Poop

Shoptastic Cuties - Chippy Cookie Cutie

Kadoodle Bug Designs

has a lot of cute Christmas themed files as well

           as a lot of other themes. One could make a tree to last

the whole year and not run out of cute files to use.

May you continue in all of your Christmas

preparation happily and safely.

Merry

Christmas!!! 

Cutie KaToodles - Santa Ornament Bear

Have you got your tree up for Christmas yet?

We usually put ours up on Thanksgiving but this year 

we didn't get it up until last night. It still needs to 

be decorated. We will get it done soon.

This year I decided to use some of the cute files from

Kadoodle Bug Designs to help 

decorate our tree.

The first one I did was the Cutie KaToodles - Santa Ornament Bear.

I added stickles to add some sparkle, some

3D foam dots to create dimension,

some chalk for rosy cheeks,

inked the edges, and added white dots for shine in the nose and eyes.

I used a pattern paper from my stash of Christmas patterned

paper to jazz up the hat and ornament.

Thanks for stopping by and hope you

have a great holiday season. 

Add some holiday spirit with Christmas projects

from Kadoodle Bug Designs that you create this year.

Mice Singing card

Koala T Crafts have cute digis.

Have you seen them?

I chose to make a Christmas card using a digi from the 

Winter Whimsy Bundle

called Mice Singing.

I can just see in my mind cute little mice standing outside

my front door singing Christmas carols for cheese.

The base of the card is from Cricut Design Space. 

I added a couple of cute buttons from my

stash called Dress It Up Music from Jesse James & Co.

Stickles were placed on the stars on the border frame.

The background paper was some I had in my stash.

I used a 3D foam square to raise the mice a little

off the base paper.

Be sure to check out the cute digis from Koala T Crafts

for your fun projects.

Check out the Koala T Crafts blog for more ideas.

Fun project with 2 inch squares

This project is soooooo versatile. 

Just a few ideas on how to use it:

1. Scrapbook layouts

2. Memory game

3. Use larger squares and make pictures

4. Elements for cards

First, I have a video tutorial by Jen Evers on how she

makes and uses her twinchies.

(Twinchies in a word that means 2-inch squares.)

I have used many squares in the past to decorate layouts with.

Here are the twinchies that I used Koala T Crafts Monster digi bundle to make.

They make cute layout borders as well as using in different ways on the layouts.

The following are NOT part of the Koala T Craft digi lines but I wanted to give you more ideas on how these can be used. You can make them all sizes.

These are 1 inch (onsies) that are also shakers

The letters are 3 inch (thrinchies)

Hope you have fun with this type of element making.

Thanks for checking this out.

Remember our nut free friends

Nowadays peanut allergies seem to be blooming in

our friends left and right.

Kadoodle Bug Designs has two cute cut files for nut-free candy.

Shoptastic Cuties - Nut Free Candy Pumpkin Cutie

and

Cutie KaToodles - Nut Free Candy

which I chose to make a sign to sit by some goodies

that are nut free so those who need them can make sure they

the get the nut-free candy.

I also added a digi stamp from Odd Ball art 

call Spooky Halloween Candy and Bone.
