Craft room update

Well I received a new bookcase and craft shelf for my birthday.  I put them together and have set up my craft room.  I have sooo much more room on my desk.  I am so looking forward to crafting this weekend, it seems like forever since I've been able to do anything other than quick thank you cards.  Here are some pictures of my craft room (I share it with the spare bedroom), so it is small, but I like it

Last Tacky Tuesday

I am so sad that Tacky Tuesday is ending.  I have really enjoyed how much fun it is.  Thanks Ruthie for all you did to make it such a fun challenge.  Here is my entry, it was definately one of the more challenging for me, I had a hard time thinking of a sentiment with melt in it.  Since I live in the Pacific Northwest, when we get snow it doesn't last long, so that's why I thought of this!

Monday Challenge-Gobble til you Wobble

This challenge is for any Thanksgiving project, I made a wall hanging for my station at work!

I used the wreath is two circles from George and Basic shapes.  the turkey and pumpkin are from Create a Critter, the little pumpkin face is Peachy Keen stamps.  the corn and Sentiment are from the Thanksgiving cart.  The leaves which are the base are cut from CAC also, then I sprayed them with water and scrunched them, then inked them.  Ribbon is from Michaels.

I love making different wall hangings for all of the holidays.

Throw back Thursday Challenge

For this challenge it has to be kid friendly.  I decided to make a Thanksgiving card for kids!  I used the Mickey and Friends:

I love Chip and Dale, they are so cute!  The ribbon is from Michaels.

Tacky Tuesday

This months Tacky Tuesday challenge is to use a frog cut and "frog" or "toad" in the sentiment.  I decided to make an easel card. 

I used the Mini Monsters cartridge for the frog.  The frog was cut at 3.15".   I made a flower using my new Flower Shoppe cartridge.  I used scallop 1 at 1.5 inches.  I added some frog ribbon I had and some green brads.

Tacky Tuesday Z fold card

I was asked for more information on how to make the Z fold.  I love the design.

It's called a Z fold and is not my design.  I can't remember where I learned it from.  I wrote down the directions and still have to follow them. 

Start with a piece of paper 51/2  x 12.  Score at 2",4",8",10".

Go in at 11/2 from the top cut from 2" to 10"

Go in at 4" from the top cut from 2" to 10"

Fan fold up down up down

Take the middle score line and push in opposite directions.

I've attached pictures at different levels of opening.  I hope this helps!

When folded, it fits into a standard A2 envelope

Tacky Tuesday Challenge and Cardztv Challenge

I don't know if this made it in time, my camera was at the shop being cleaned.  I just picked it up a little while ago.  This was also a tribute to Breast Cancer awareness month. 

I am also entering this into Cardztv challenge.
