Project Tuesday 6 Pack Challenge.....


Hi Everyone! I've finally succumbed to Christmas and started on my Christmas projects at last *smile*

I purchased some little 1 x 8" cello bags from a fellow demo recently without really knowing what I would do with them. Then I came across some bags of Christmas jelly beans at Woolworths for only $2.00 and just knew that they would be perfect for my daughter to give out to her school friends instead of candy canes this Christmas.

While doing my regular Challenge Blog Site surfing this week I came across the Project Tuesday Six Pack Challenge. Instantly I knew that I had to join in with this one because it would be perfect for the jelly bean bags. Now my daughter will have something pretty to hold the jelly beans while she hands them out to her friends.


Here's what I came up with -


And a jelly bean bag -


I started putting the jelly beans in any which way but then the OCD got the better of me and I had to redo them in a colour pattern *smile*

If you decide to join in this challenge and make the 6 pack holder, I found a little error in the PDF. At Step 6, I found the measurements should read 'cut two pieces of cardstock 6 1/4" x 6 1/4".'

Thanks for stopping by. Have a great weekend!

Asian Artistry again.......


I love the Asian Artistry stamp set! Now that I've started using it I don't think I can stop LOL. This is my second card. I'm sure that there will be a lot more before the end of the month when the Autumn-Winter mini catalogue ends.

I really like the appearance of the stamped images in this set. It's more of a rough look, like it has been painted on silk, rather than a crisp image.


Here is the front.......

I've already got another idea floating around in my head for the next one. So you'll have to come back and see what I come up with :)
