Hello Cupcake Mini Gable Box

Today’s project is one I made for every last week for my 2019 Occasions Catalog Kick Off using the Sale-a-bration stamp set, Hello Cupcake.

The Lustrous White Mini Gable Boxes made this project quick and easy since all I had to do was decorate and assemble, the box was already to go with a lovely shimmery finish.

Everyone seemed to enjoy the little treat box they found at their seats when they arrived.

Did you know that the Hello Cupcake stamp set is FREE during Sale-a-bration when you place a qualifying order of $50 (before shipping and tax)? So when you order the supplies used to create this little box you’ll earn the stamp set. Yes, it’s that easy!

Want to learn how I made them? Here is a video tutorial for you.

The So Hoppy Together is a great set that is perfect for all ages since it includes not only this cute little frog but also fun quirky sentiments too.

Team Fun & the 2019 Occasions Catalog!

Yesterday, I gathered with my team to share the excitement of OnStage with them during our OnStage Stream Event. I normally do this these events the Friday after the OnStage, but no one seemed to mind that we had to reschedule due to my illness. Excitement to see the catalog and products was high.

I had the classroom decorated with OnStage Goodies

Everyone received a little something

And of course a little taste of Orlando with the Mini Mouse Hand Sanitizer I shared with you earlier HERE.

The boxes contained key chain with charms and the beautiful dragonflies Sue made for me earlier.

We shared, everyone won a new accessory from the Occasions Catalog in our very own prize patrol,

and of course stamped with the new products!

Here are the Make ‘n Takes we made. This first one uses the Butterfly Gala Suite of products that you’re just going to LOVE!

And this second one uses the Piece of Cake stamp set

Watch for tutorials coming soon

You can see the new 2019 Occasions goodies on the tables in the classroom, way in the back – I forgot to take pictures of those tables. Sigh. But the good news is I did a sneak peek video for you so you can see them close up!

#OnStage Mini Mouse Hand Sanitizer Holder

Today’s project is one that I made for my OnStage attendees – when I ran across these little Mini Mouse Hand Sanitizers at my local Walmart I just couldn’t resist – they were just too cute.

So I wanted to make a little OnStage themed gift for everyone and here is what I came up with.

So what do you think? Cute? And of course it never hurts to have some hand sanitizer with you either.

Want Micky instead? Simply move the bow and make it a bow tie. And why not leave me a comment and let me know which is your favorite Micky or Mini.

Want to make some for yourself? I’ve whipped up a quick video tutorial for you.

Rooted in Nature Faux Silk Tutorial

I started this project a while back and got side tracked. Does that ever happen to you? That being said, I’m not admitting to my stack of half finished projects  anything. LOL!

Well the good news is I finally finished it and love the way it turned out so I wanted to share it with you today.

What do you think? Can you see your favorite autumn photo in it? The color is a bit late here in this neck of the state so I haven’t gotten many pictures yet, but hope too still if the rain doesn’t wash things out.

This frame looks like it took along time and is complicated, but really isn’t difficult to do with a few basic supplies. The frame itself is one of those inexpensive $1 frames you can find at your local Walmart or craft store.

Here is a video tutorial for you showing you how I made it. This video is a bit longer than I normally do so I hope you enjoy it.
