Snuck in a little junkin' trip~

 
 
Aren't these little pair of baby girl shoes the cutest ever?! I just had to have them~$6.50, well worth the money !!!
 
 
They are all leather~and so small.  I don't know what I'm going to do with them but right now I'm enjoying looking at them and having them hang around:):)~I'll keep you posted.
*********************
Then there  is this lovely~
 
 
a slide tray box!!! Perfect for holding your biz cards"):)  and then I thought of this~
 
 
I have all of these ( taking up space, that I need) so,I did this~
 
 
Fits perfect on the side of my work table, it is adorable storage {very important}and it cleared up more room in my drawer:):)  The perfect storage solution for Jenni Bowlin mini chipboard pieces. The dividers are the Tim Holtz journal cards, perfect size!!!!!
 
 
I think the round slide tray would be good for this too!!! Vintage Street Market has three different kind in the store~HERE, HERE and HERE.

We have less than a week before Christmas~really is coming fast this year!!!!
See ya soon~

Try It Tuesday~use what you have!

Hi everyone~
I wanted to show you a little gift I made using cool stuff I had on hand.  I used vintage office machine key board buttons to make some very unique stick pins for a bulletin board.  Very easy and quick project~
I did clip ( wire cutters) the back of the key board buttons, so they were flat.
 
 
This picture shows the layers I used for the front and how it is glued to the back of a regular tack.
I used hot glue.  The button is by Jenni Bowlin Studio.
 
 
I used the packaging from this (red tape) to make a gift container for the tacks.  I used the Christmas 2012 by Jenni Bowlin.  Tied twine around it added a gift tag.  I put my name on this one.:):):)

A BIG CONGRATS goes out to Debby Lewis for getting a FIRST place on her baby layout over at Scrapbook Awards!!!
Have a great day and I'll see ya soon!!

Christmas tags~JBS!!!

It is so fun this time of year, to make Christmas goodies for packages or decorations!!!!  Most everything I make this month is being used as an ornament or on packages.  I loved making these tags  using the Tag papers { a new favorite} and the Mini Silhouette Deck by Jenni Bowlin Studio.

The Christmas Chipboard buttons are on the tags too, also with some vintage lace and candy canes!!! The tags look great on packages too~these are all given away!!

Have a great Monday, like all of you I have tons of wrapping still to do!!!
See ya soon!!!

Try It Tuesday coming tomorrow!!!!!

Gift idea~with JBS!!!

 
Hi everyone~wanted to share with you some ideas for easy and cute gift ideas.  I used some of JBS goodies and made lapel pins.  All you need is some pretty buttons, beads and the lapel pin set.
 
 
This one I used the JBS doily embellishment and hot glued the lapel stick pin to the back.  The front has a vintage button.  Then I attached the pin to one of the cards in the new "mini deck"~love the look!!!
 
 
 
You can put them on your Christmas tree, they look so pretty!!! Add a gift tag and they are ready to put a name on and gift !!!!!  I have 3 {only 3} Jenni Bowlin stamps ~ the first three peeps that email me, I'll send each of you one!!

Try It Tuesday~Magnet Board {oil drip pan}

 
I saw this on Pinterest and thought what a great magnet board for my Sizzix {Movers & Shapers} dies.  Hubby mounted in on the inside of my scrappy closet and I just love it.  I'm sure other stuff will land on it too:):):).  Here is the original post from the blog that it was on.  So cool!!!!
 
 
We got our oil drip pan at Wal-mart for $12,  really!!!  It is really big, but I love that ~working on a way to add my Spellbinder dies to it.  Great to have them all in one place.
 
Have a wonderful Tuesday and I'll see ya soon!!!
