Be Merry Candle Gift by Shelly

Hey y'all! Shelly, here.

Today I'm sharing a simple gift idea with you!

I started with my candle jar and simply wrapped some wired burlap ribbon around it. After I used some red jute twine and tied it around the burlap. Easy, right?!...Next, I used a festive holly die cut with green cardstock. Which I layered two times. 

To finish things off, I added 'be merry' to a circle die cut piece using kraft cardstock and punched a hole at the top. Once done, I added everything to my jar and tied things off. Simple yet makes for a sweet gift, yeah?!...

Thanks so much for stopping by!
Enjoy your day!

Doggie Treat Tubes by Shelly

Hey y'all! Shelly, here.

Today, I'm sharing some fun doggie treat tubes with you! 

I started with making the tags for the tubes. I used some burlap ribbon and just trimmed it into the tag shape I wanted. After I stamped (and die cut) a dog image I had.
 

Then did some quick and easy coloring. Once done, I added it to my burlap tag and tube, using some jute twine. To finish things off, I filled each tube with some doggy treats and then slipped them into a fun new Paw Prints patterned bag to match. Simple and fun, yeah?!...

Thanks so much for stopping by!
Enjoy your day!

4th of July Decor by Melanie

Yay! It is summertime here in the USA and our country's birthday is just around the corner. Melanie here today to share a project I made to add a festive touch to our house. I had a block of wood painted red left over from my daughter's graduation party. Since it was the perfect color for the 4th of July I decided to decorate it with SRM products :) 4th of July stickers galore are available from SRM. I added burlap, twine, and jute to give some texture to the project.

I began by wrapping different border stickers around the block. Then I added in shape and word stickers.

In the lower half of the block, I wrapped burlap around the block. Then I adhered the tag shape sticker on top and finished it off with some twine and jute.

I love the festive look this adds to our home as we prepare to celebrate our country.

Birthday Wishes by Amber

Hello everyone! It's Amber here, today I thought it would be fun to share this Birthday watercolor card set I created for a friend. 

I started by gathering all my supplies, cardstock, watercolor paper, stamps, stickers, watercolor pencils, embossing folder, thread, and sewing machine and started assembling my cards. I created four cards in total using the same layout for each one to save time.

I started with a plain white card base and adhered a pink piece of distressed, embossed, and stitched cardstock right to the center of my card front. For the focal point of my card I stamped this beautiful floral postage stamp from Penny Black that I've had setting in my collection waiting to be used for some time now onto some Ranger Distress Watercolor Cardstock. I cut the image out, distressed the edges and quickly water colored the entire image with some Marvy Watercolor pencil and a water brush. After my stamped image dried I adhered to my card front with some foam adhesive and attached my sentiment. I used the Birthday Wishes sticker from SRM's Fancy Sentiment/Birthday sheet and adhered it to the bottom left to complete my card front.

I thought it would be fun to dress up the envelopes included in my card set so I stamped all four of them to match my cards. I stamped each one with the fun border stamp and large Hello sentiment from SRM's Big Hello Clear Stamp in some lime green ink. 

Once I had all my cards assembled I put together a clear A2 Card Box from the SRM Stickers shop, filled it with some white tissue paper, and added all four of my cards and matching envelopes. For the outside of my clear container I used some burlap ribbon, lime green ribbon, and a matching tag. I used the same watercolor cardstock, stamp, and sentiment sticker that I used for my cards to create my gift tag. I hope you enjoyed my card set today. Thanks for visiting!

Happy Fall by Tanya

Hello everyone!  Tanya here today to share a sweet fall gift idea with you.  Fall has to be my favorite season of the year and I love creating and sharing small gifts to celebrate this wonderful, colorful time of the year. I really love the way this one turned out:

Doesn't that make you ready for Fall?

I started with the 6 X 4.5 inch Kraft Box.  After assembling my box, I inked up the edges with brown ink. Next, I cut panels of printed paper just slightly smaller than the sides and top of my box. I inked up those edges also and used a one inch circle die to create the notch on the front panel. I stamped the word "happy" onto the front panel in brown ink using the BIG Birthday stamp set.

After adhering all the panels, I wrapped this fabulous burlap ribbon around my box (I love the texture it adds).  Next I added the word "Fall" and those pump pumpkins that I cut out on my Silhouette.

I love the size of this Kraft Box!  My full sized candle, a tube of lotion and a small hand sanitizer all fit perfectly! 

 

Thanks so much for stopping by today.  Have a great day and I'll see you soon.

 

Trick or Treat by Amber

Hello everyone! I'ts Amber here, today I'm sharing this fun Halloween themed card and matching candy filled tube. I also have a quick bonus project at the end of this post for you to check out.

I started by folding an 8 1/2" x 5 1/2" piece of light green cardstock in half to create a 5 1/2" by 4 1/4" card base. Once my card base was folded I took the largest die from Avery Elle's Double Pierced Rectangles Elle-Ments Die and die cut a large rectangle out of some colorful striped  patterned paper, adhered it to my light green card base, and set it aside to work on my stamped photo frame. 

For the next part of my card, the photo frame I traced a die cut photo frame I had in my stash onto some orange pattered paper and cut it out. I stamped my cute little Halloween image in some black Memento Ink onto some white cardstock and colored it with some Spectrum Noir Markers. A quick little trick for you, I like to pick my patterned paper in the beginning of my card making process. Ding this ensures the entire card will match and it makes it so much easier to choose colors to color your images. I added my colored image behind my orange photo frame, added a Trick-Or-Treat sentiment from SRM's Stickers By The Dozen/Halloween sticker sheet, added some twine with a mini black safety pen, and attached the entire finished photo frame to my card base at an angle.

I'm always looking for fun new ways to package up fun little classic treats like these lemon drops. Since my card featured a little boy dressed as a dragon I thought it would be fun to fill one of The Original Tubes with some yellow lemon drops and label it with a little tag that read Dragon Spots. Fun right?  If you don't have any clear tubes on hand or if your looking for a quick way to mass produce more then one gift another fun way to package up some treats is with a bag.

I quickly decorated this 5" x 7.5" Embossed Chevron Kraft Bag with some matching patterned paper, clear stickers from the Sentiment/Halloween sticker sheet, a mini black clothespin, and some twine. This was super easy to make and can quickly be made while you still have all your supplies out. I hope you enjoyed my card, tube, and gift bag today! Thanks for visiting!

Bountiful Blessings by Shelly

Hey y'all! Shelly, here! 

Today, I'm sharing a simple and sweet fall themed card with you! 

I did some simple die cutting for my leaves, which I used with some fall colored cardstock. After, I somewhat rolled and gathered together a little bit of burlap ribbon and jute twine. Then added a mini wood clothespin to hold it all together. Once done, I added some patterned paper to my card base, then my rolled bunched of burlap and jute along with my leaves and sentiment piece. 

Simple and sweet, yeah?!...

Thanks so much for stopping by!

Enjoy your day!

Love.Joy.Peace.Patience.Kindness by Shelly

Hey y'all! Shelly, here! 

Today I'm sharing a simple and sweet set of cards with you! 

I started with making my cards. Which I chose use a kraft cardstock base, along with SRM's Just Believe stamps. I stamped the 'sentiments/border' to go around my card and then stamped the flower in the middle. After I used markers with the blender pen to color my flowers. 

Once done, I added envelopes to my set of cards and used some white jute burlap twine to hold it all together. 

I then placed the set in a glassine bag and added it inside a kraft window box. Next, I added some burlap ribbon around the box. To top things off, I added a white doily with a sticker and piece of jute burlap twine. 

A quick and sweet little set of cards, don't you say?!...

Burlap & Lace Birdie Birthday Banner by Karen

Hello Karen here today with a fun idea!  Used lots of SRM goodies on this project and they are all listed at the bottom.

We recently were able to celebrate the 70th Birthday of a wonderful and sweet woman - my husband's mom. To add to the day's celebration I created this fun birdhouse themed banner to hang at her party. I really like how the natural look and feel of the burlap ribbon and twine plays with the soft colors and elegant touches of lace ribbon and doilies.

I used my Cricut to cut the basic banner shapes (3 layers). I cut 4 inch doilies in half and adhered a half on the bottom portion of each base piece and added a row of black stitching sticker at the midpoint. Each two layered letter is adhered with pop dots for added dimension.

I love to add words and phrases to my projects and SRM clear stickers are perfect for doing just that. I used a variety of sticker sheets to find just the right words in just the right sizes to add fun details.

I wanted to add a little bit more to my banner and a strip of the new raw-edged burlap ribbon behind each banner shape added another great layer and natural element. I used mini clothespins to hang the pieces from the new jute twine.  To dress up my banner I also added several lengths of ribbon to each end, including the wired burlap (curled so cute!), white lace, and bit of the blue in a blue striped ribbon from my stash.

For this project I used:

3 colors of cardstock
 White 4" Doilies 
White Lace  
Burlap Ribbon 
Burlap Wired Ribbon 
Jute Twine in white
Sticker Sentiments - Happy Birthday  
We've Got Your Border - Birthday

DIY Burlap Cross by Christine

We've recently moved into a new home and burlap is one of my main accents in my decorating scheme. When I saw that SRM was releasing some new burlap ribbons, I was very excited. Christine joining you today with a simple DIY burlap cross that you can make with just a few simple supplies!

First off you need a frame of some sort - I pulled an old oval shaped one that I was no longer using but rectangle of any sort would also work great! Don't have one laying around - hit up a yard sale or a thrift store - this is a fun time to upcycle!  I took my sandpaper to it and distressed it like crazy.

Attach the Wired Burlap Ribbon both verically and horizontally (I used hot glue to attach mine).  Then criss cross the the center using White Jute Twine - tie the knots tight in the back and do another round if you want a little more to it.  And that's it - super simple but a beautiful addition to any cross loving home!

♩Good Day Sunshine! ♫ by Shannon

Hello!  Shannon here today!

I was totally listening to The Beatles while creating this card set...can you tell?

I created a set of friendship inspired cards using a multitude of SRM Stickers products!

Here's a closer shot of each of the cards in no particular order. I love the new Burlap Ribbon, it is a perfect way to add dimension and texture to your projects. 

New stamp alert! You'll see some of the new stamps in this card, but maybe used in a way you wouldn't think to do, as a subtle background instead of a big sentiment...but that's perfectly ok too!  Hint:  Just Believe

SRM has so many stickers for so many occasions, you can combine them and they work so well together, I used Thinking of You Sentiment Stickers and Wishing You Well Sentiment Stickers in the card below. 

There's a great new stamp available, Trust in the Lord and it has a bunch of great sentiments and accents that you can add to your cards, layouts, projects, bible journaling, etc! I used the tiny crosses as a background. 

Thank you for letting me share some sunshine with you today! 

Here are the products used:

Clear Stamp - Trust in the Lord

Clear Stamp - Just Believe

Sentiment - Wishing You Well

Sentiment - Thinking of You

Sticker Stitches - Halloween
