We have been blessed to live in this neighborhood for nearly 14 years.  Presently we are selling and due to move a couple of days after Easter.  We wanted to bless our neighbors, friends and family with a sweet treat that will bless them as they have done us.  

My daughter said this reminds her of the monthly Paper Pumpkin seasonal crafting - grab YOUR Subscription and never be behind in your holiday crafting (they are GREAT for my kids to create with or without me!).  

THIS is the type of carrots my kids really want - lol.

~  Using a Square piece of Designer Series Paper - like this Subtles collection in Calypso Coral and Pear Pizzazz, adhesive two full sides in a backwards L.  Create a loop on that L with a half way line that connects on the next area. (see the video for the specifics)

** Here we used a 6" piece but a 4" is a great little carrot also!**

~  Using the same collection of Designer Series Paper in the Pear Pizzazz at 3"x6" and score at 1" along the 6" side.

~  Using the Paper Snips to create a fringe edge on the 2" side.

~  Using the Bone Folder and rub it to curl the paper.

~  Adhere the fringe to the back of the backwards L.

~  Roll the other side to create a tube.

~  Close the base with a pinch along the bottom where half was adhesived (I like to fold it back for a little 'flair').

~  Roll the Paper closed and fill with Basket Shred.

~  Add Candy - yummy!

~  Add more of the Basket Shred to the top.

~  Die-Cut the Word Wishes Dies in Happy Easter with the Basic White card stock in the Stampin' Cut & Emboss machine.

~  Adhesive down with the Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive.

Give away to bless someone today!!

I'm sooo excited about the NEXT Paper Pumpkin specifically designed for kids to create some sweet fun!

We will be filling this Easter Basket with a fun collection of Holiday, Spring and Easter Crafting that my girls and I will be creating and filming for you!  Join us for our Wild Card Wednesday with the next two weeks of bonus, easy holiday crafting!

Happy Spring, tattoo inspired handmade card

I have a little secret... I love tattoo art.  It may NOT be for everyone, but I love what an artist can draw - on human skin even!  A friend of mine is an AMAZING tattoo artist and we were discussing her doing art on paper for people as well. (I even ordered a piece of art from Katelyn Crane and you can also!) It's funny, here, as Mother Goose and Tattoos combine to create a cute Fable Friends handmade Easter card!

Fable Friends Mother Goose Spring handmade card inspired by Tattoo Art GettingCrafty.net

 The art that was often featured in Old Mother Goose books always enthralled me - as a child until now.  I LOVE that Stampin' Up! created the most beautiful childlike whimsical art, much like the Victorian Children's books written.
****
~  Cutting the Balmy Blue card stock to 3" x 4-1/2", the Crumb Cake card stock to 3-1/4" x 4-3/4".
~  Stamping the Momma goose and babies in Stazon black ink on the Balmy Blue.
~  Using the Watercolor Pencils in Granny Apple Green, Daffodil Delight, Balmy Blue, Flirty Flamingo, Bermuda Bay and (my hero of the watercolor pencil collection) Whisper White!
~  Add sparkle and blend the color (cleaning the tip between each color use) with Clear Wink of Stella.
TOOL TIP:  Any use of 'coloring' with the likes of Wink of Stella, Blender Pens, Aqua Painters, etc - keep on hand a cleaning 'junk' napkin to clean the tip in-between each color to avoid muddling.

 I had fun with a variety of looks, the 'rain' of our adhesive backed Rhinestone Jewels or adding a Sun.
***
DON'T FORGET:  The OUTSIDE of the card is a great way to give a 'sneak peak' of what will be inside... and the INSIDE of the card continues the joy with little time or effort!

Here is some fun 'math' for you...
TWO handcrafted cards, two very different looks, The SAME products create ONE Fun Tutorial ~ See the Step-By-Step in the video below...

~  Stamping the Bunny and Grass in Stazon black ink on the Crumb Cake.
~  Using the Watercolor Pencils in Granny Apple Green, Daffodil Delight, Balmy Blue and (my hero of the watercolor pencil collection) Whisper White!
~  Add sparkle and blend the color (cleaning the tip between each color use) with Clear Wink of Stella.

Tattoo Artist inspired.. @randahaddadin on Instagram doodling on her leg... 

Tattoo art is often missed for the sheer beauty of it.  
Here one artist was featured on one of the tattoo art pages I follow... 
her art ALWAYS brings a smile to my face.  What do YOU think?
If ONLY I could Draw as well on myyyy jeans, lol... 
I'd be sporting inked jeans EVERYWHERE!

Adventure is calling handmade card

It's Summer and with my kids home, even though I homeschool and they are home with me the majority of the time, I am trying to plan some fun adventures for our family.  We live in one of the coolest places in California, with waterfalls to the ocean, areas major shows were filmed (MASH to Gun Smoke and more!), museums and Native American original sites - there are so many fun things to explore!  Celebrate the adventurous spirit of kids and summer with this beautiful handmade card.   Last night's Facebook.com/GettingCrafty.net LIVES were such fun!
