Treat Bags
Today at the Timeless Twine/Bella Creationz blog, I'm sharing with you some cute and easy treat bags for Halloween. I used the GORGEOUS Halloween Orange & Licorice Timeless Twine and Bella Creationz Glassine Bags on these yummy treats.
The bag toppers are cut with a Spellbinder's Nestabilities label and folded in half. They are tied onto the bags with that pretty twine and then I taped a Graphic 45 panel to the front. The best part? I filled them up with YUMMY M&Ms and had a few left over for a snack :)

Yay! Love sales, and this one is really great!

Birthday Chibi Boy!
Today, I'm sharing a FuN card using Chibi Boy Expressions Stamps from Oak Tree Stamps There are a bunch of cute expressions that go with the boy face, and so many fun possibilities. I have four sons (plus the large one I call husband), so I decided a (somewhat) masculine birthday card was in order. Here's what I did:
I pulled that paper out of an old stash, and I haven't a clue what brand it is....but I'm super proud of using up some old paper! The hearts are confetti hearts from UmWow Studio, the twine is from Timeless Twine, the sentiment is a Penny Black Celebrations Die, and the speech bubble is a Spellbinders Conversation Bubble 2 Die.
Thanks for stopping by on this Happy Humpday! Please check out all the fun at Oak Tree Stamps! Also, stop and LIKE the Oak Tree Stamps Facebook Page for more fabulous inspiration!

I say it's only "somewhat" masculine because I just had to have hearts and bows! My boys fully expect that. I colored up his adorbs face with the following Copic markers:
Face: E000, E01, E11
Cheeks: R21
Mouth: E4
Hair: E41, E33, E35

Bear Hugs
Karen N here from Craftily Yours! About once a month, I do a crafter-lunch at work. I manage quite a few staff members, and many of them share my love for crafting. As a treat, I design a card and bring in all the goodies, so we create a card together!
Here is the card I made:
I used two fun 3 Girl JAM crinkle ribbon colors in my card. The first is from the Ribbon Candy Bundle; the second is from the Sunny Meadows Bundle. That adorable bear is from Oak Tree Stamps. (You can save 30% off your entire purchase there with code KN30!) I colored his ears, nose, tummy and bear toes with Copic markers. The paper is from MME. The frame around the bear is a Spellbinders die.
By the way, have you joined our 3 Girl JAM Challenge. Anything goes with ribbon! Do you simply need some 3 Girl JAM goodies, be sure to use code KN10 at the 3 Girl JAM store for a cool 10% off!
Craftily yours,
Karen

Birthday Diva

I recently got the Unity Stamp that I used in this creation....and it was so girly-girl that I had to color it up right away and pair it with the gorgeous 3 Girl JAM Ribbon Candy crinkle ribbon and some 3 Girl JAM Light and Bright Lace.
The ribbon is so cool....it goes with pink-ish projects and red-ish projects (like for Christmas, it's coming!) You "need" this ribbon! Go check out the 3 Girl JAM store! If you decide to place an order, use code KN10 for 10% off your WHOLE order! Or this month, use code AUGUST to get the fabulous Caribbean Splash bundle for just $1!

Bridal Shower
I'm up over at the Oak Tree Stamps blog today! This month, I have the honor of featuring the Oak Tree Stamps, Now and Forever, stamp set. This stamp is so fabulously cute and SO much fun to color!
I decided to make a card that would be PERFECT for a bridal shower. This little gal is SO cute!
She is colored with the following Copic Markers:
Skin: E000, E01, E11, R21, BV20
Hair: E13, Y21, YR24
Flowers: R20, R21, YG63
Eyes: C7, B00, B12
Dress: C1
I used the gorgeous Heartfelt Creations Birds and Blooms Paper. I stamped and die-cut the flowers from Heartfelt Creations Delightful Daisies and then shaped them with the Heartfelt Creations Deluxe Flower Shaping Kit. The centers of the flowers are US Artquest Prills. The bottom borders are done with Elizabeth Craft Designs Agatha Edges. I finished it off with some Timeless Twine in Olive Green.
Thanks so MUCH for stopping by today! Please go check out Oak Tree Stamps! Buy something and save a whopping 30% off your order with code KN30!! Also, stop and LIKE the Oak Tree Stamps Facebook Page for more fabulous inspiration!
