Itty Bitty Pumpkins by Ann


Happy Halloween to all!  Today I'm sharing something that's perfect for Halloween but is also great for anytime during the Fall, especially Thanksgiving.

Ann Molvik loves to create knitted home decor for every holiday and season.  For Fall she decided to create some little pumpkins that can be used for home decor throughout the season or even as place card holders at your Thanksgiving table.  How totally fun and adorable!


Ann, who loves knitting with twine, found the perfect colors from The Twinery for this project:  Solid Mandarin Orange for her pumpkin and Solid Peapod Green for the stems.  For the pumpkin pictured above, Ann found a free pattern on Ravelry from Marie Green called Luscious Little Pumpkin.

For her second project Ann created a trio of pumpkins with simple little stems.  She could not find a pattern that she liked so she created her own!  And we are sharing that pattern with you HERE.  How fun to create these for your home or as gifts for friends and family.

To create her little pumpkins, Ann used 50 yards of Solid Mandarin Orange and scraps of Solid Peapod Green

Be sure to look for Twinery Twine in your local craft or knitting stores.  Twine is becoming such a popular fiber and The Twinery has 47 different colors from which to choose.  Find them all in the SRM online store.  It's 100% cotton, 4 ply, washable and Made in the USA!  And it's great for paper crafting and gift wrapping too!

Christmas Treats by Angi


 Angi Barrs loves to give gourmet popcorn for Christmas. This year she's decided to take it up a notch and create mini popcorn buckets and SRM Popcorn Tubes.  How fun is that!

Angi used a popcorn box die and Heidi Swapp paper. And she just loves the Christmas Tree from SRM's We've Got Your Sticker Plus set.  It's so fun and festive for Christmas projects.  And the Trees from SRM's Stickers by the Dozen Christmas match them and are a perfect size for the mini and tiny Tubes.  

SRM Stickers Blog - Christmas Treats by Angi - #Tubes #stickers #christmas #treats

Angi wrapped the tops of the Tiny and Mini tubes with We've Got Your Border Christmas stickers. The colors are so merry and bright! You can easily fill your food safe tubes with popped popcorn or just the kernels. They will be a hit any way you do it.


Angi used these stickers in her fun project!  What fun little gifts or stocking stuffers from Santa! 


Thanks Angi for your great inspiration.   Perfect timing with Christmas just around the corner!  Gift giving has never been so easy, tasty and FUN!

Fancy Christmas Cards by Laurel


Laurel Seabrook is featured on today's blog with some fast and fancy Christmas Cards.  By sticking to the same paper pack (Echo Park Reflections Christmas) and the same sticker sheet (SRM's Fancy Sticker Sentiments), she was able to create both of these cards very quickly! 

 This snowman card was created with scraps.  Be sure to save those scraps, they sometimes come in handy!


I love the old fashioned feel of this second card and the use of the 2 merchandise tags that are tied together with some delicious twine.  SRM's Fancy Sticker Sentiments are a perfect accompaniment to this beautiful card.  


Laurel used just 2 of the sentiments from SRM's Fancy Sticker Sentiments Christmas sheet.  Just think of all the things you can do with the rest of your delicious stickers!


Thanks Laurel for this fast and fabulous inspiration for making Christmas cards!

All of our design team members are busy making their Christmas Cards.  Angélique Jarrier's work is so intricate and ususally 3-D so I was excited to see what she created using SRM Stickers for her Christmas cards.  These cards are, to say the least, stunning!

Using SRM's Fancy Christmas Sticker Sentiments, Angélique created this beautiful inked, stamped and stickered dimensional card. I love the ribbon that she chose for her card.  And the doily adds a special touch too!

Clean & Simple Christmas Cards by Yvonne


Yvonne Yam is usually the queen of all things mixed media but sometimes she needs to make some quick and easy cards and SRM clear stickers are perfect for this task! 

Using 3 different Christmas sticker sheets from SRM, Yvonne created 3 cards but could make at least 25 more!  There are lots of sentiments on each sheet.  Plus there are lots of image stickers as well. Yvonne used lots of delicious patterned papers from Doodlebug.

On her first card, Yvonne used Christmas Borders and a sentiment and Christmas Tree from We've Got Your Sticker PLUS.  She mounted the sticker on cardstock and cut it out making it a focal point on her card.  The touch of Peapod green twine is perfect!

SRM Stickers Blog - Clean & Simple Christmas Cards by Yvonne - #cards #Christmas #twine #stickers #simple

On her second card Yvonne used just one border from SRM's Christmas Border sheet and a sentiment from the We've Got Your Sticker MERRY.

CARDS, Cards, cards! by Shelly


Shelly Kurth has created 5 fabulous Christmas cards using a variety of SRM Sticker Sentiment sheets. These cards are easy to CASE with their simple structure of using cardstock bases, a bit of stamping, stickers and a few simple embellishments. 

 For her first card, Shelly stamped a white mistletoe and holly image, added a bit of bling and placed an SRM Sentiment from the Christmas Borders onto a wood banner.  Perfection!

SRM Stickers Blog - Cards by Shelly - #Christmas #cards #stickers #borders #fancy #twine

For her second card Shelly used a wood veneer house, a bit of stamping, a bit of bling and SRM's Fancy Sticker Sentiment Christmas.

SRM Stickers Blog - Cards by Shelly - #Christmas #cards #stickers #borders #fancy #twine

Using white and kraft card stock, the simplicity of the next 2 cards is stunning.  Shelly used some red SRM Sticker Stitches to "trim" her washi tape tree and used SRM's Christmas Borders for her "be merry" sentiment and mounted it on a wood veneer piece.  A few gems complete the cards.

Quick and easy was the name of the game when Lesley Croghan created these 4 fabulous cards! She loves that with some patterned papers, a couple of die cuts and some SRM Stickers, she could quickly put together and assortment of different Christmas cards!  And what beautiful cards they are. 

For the first card, Lesley used a red sentiment from SRM's We've Got Your Sticker Merry design.  So clean and simple, yet sensational!  Love the die cut snowflake, the bold dots and the color scheme of this card.  And think of all the other cards and projects that Lesley can make with the rest of the stickers on this sheet.

Fall Votive Gift Set by Shelly


Shelly Kurth created this Fall gift set using a votive candle with a SRM Clear container, a Thanksgiving Quick Card, Thank You Borders and some Twinery Twine.

Shelly used a piece of vellum, cut to fit around the candle.  She then embossed it using a woodgrain pattern.  She adhered the embossed vellum to the candle and added some Cappuccino Twine.

Halloween Pencil Card by Roberta

Roberta Rosi has created a card with a little gift attached.  What a fun idea!
Using SRM Halloween Stickers PLUS and Halloween Borders, Roberta decided to include a SRM Halloween pencil with her card. 

SRM Stickers Blog - Halloween Card by Roberta - #card #halloween #twine #pencil #borders

She figured out a clever way to secure the pencil to the card by wrapping a snug paper around the pencil.  

SRM Stickers Blog - Halloween Card by Roberta - #card #halloween #twine #pencil #borders

Then she taped the little paper holder shut and attached the pencil to the card.
And added some SRM Sticker Borders top on either side of the pencil.

SRM Stickers Blog - Halloween Card by Roberta - #card #halloween #twine #pencil #borders

Roberta decorated the card with a Pumpkin sticker on a punched piece to cover the little white paper holder, added a sticker spider and some Charcoal twine

It's easy to take the pencil off the card.  Wouldn't that be something fun to give to a teacher or a co-worker?

And here are the SRM Supplies that Roberta used on her project.  How totally fun!




Thanks Roberta for such a clever project that's sure to brighten someone's day!
