For My Project, I decided to fancy up an already adorable Treat Bag.

The bag is from Whisker Graphics. The alphas were in my stash (so old, I don't remember where I even got them). The Owl Stamp is by Inkadinkado. I colored it with my Whisper Strokes Markers. The small Purple Flowers are a miniature version of the fantastic Layered Garden Beauties at the Pinque Peacock Shop.

It's a Party with 3 Girl Jam Challenges

Are you ready for the New Challenge with 3 Girl JAM

Challenge #10 - It's a Party

Anything Party Related - w/ RIBBON

Our Challenge Sponsor for this Challenge is

Inky Impressions

What's The Prize???
$10.00 Gift Certificate
1 Bundle of 3GJ ribbon
and
a 3 Girl JAM Guest Designer spot

The Design Team has shared some fabulous projects with you today to help inspire you to PARTY!!! Be sure to stop over to the Challenge Blog to view all the scrumptious creations.
Then JOIN IN THE FUN!!!

Valentine's Day Party Pack
Upcycled Wine Bottle Lighted Centerpiece
Cookie Box
and Valentines for Guests

I had an idea and just had to keep running until I finished. I wanted to use as many 3 Girl JAM products as possible to show everyone how wonderful each and every item truly is to craft with.
I was able to use
Crinkle Ribbon
Twine

Flair Buttons
and
the Bow Maker

I can honestly say that this was the first time I was able to really envision a project and have the outcome be exactly what I was hoping for when I finished.
♥-♥-♥-♥-♥-♥-♥-♥-♥

I started with an empty Sangria Bottle...mmmmmm (LOL). As I was peeling the label off, I realized how sticky it was and decided to stick the label to a piece of clear plastic from my stash. I then punched out about 20 hearts with my handheld puncher (not sure of the brand, cuz I have had it for years). Now I had handmade stickers to use on the bottle for the next step.

^^^rough draft (lol)^^^
I placed the hearts all over the front of the bottle. Then my sweet hubby, Lance, spray painted the bottle for me using Krylon Glitter Blast - Cherry Bomb. It was fun to watch him because he ended up with the "Grabbing Rainbows" Hands. The nozzle stuck a bit and the glitter paint spewed uncontrollably as he continued to spray the bottle . . . LOL. He was so afraid the bottle would run out before he could finish the back side of the bottle. All was well, though. I just L♥VE the finished sparkle the paint gave the bottle, too! The stickers were just peeled off after the paint dried to create small heart "windows".

For my Cookie Box, I used a DIY Valentine Mailbox I picked up at one of the local dollar stores last year. I simply spruced it up using Crinkle Ribbon by 3 Girl JAM. The two red colors are
Red - from the July 2012 Special Bundle (not available at this time) and Holly Berry from the Winter Bundle. I wrapped the red first (like a present) then created a "Bunched Bow" using my Bow Maker . Let me tell you, this thing has taken my crafting to an entirely different level.
I ♥ my 3GJ Bow Maker

All of the cards were created similarly, just with different stamps, inks, and embellishing. All of the card stock is from my Scrap Stash.
New Release Angel Stick Pin by Pinque Peacock
Flair Buttons by 3 Girl JAM

Thank You Tag - Growing in Unity Day 3

Happy Day after Christmas Sweet Blends

I hope you had an amazing Christmas Day filled with tons of Love, Memories, Great Food, and Joyous Celebrations.

Today is my day to share my Day 3 Growing In Unity Post for this week. Each and every day this week, I have and will be sharing a project I have created using my ALL TIME Favorite Stamps EVER . . . . Unity Stamps!

It is quite the honor for me to have this opportunity and I want to properly THANK

everyone involved in making this possible for me!

Thanks Unity Stamp Co. and TEAM

I am glad you are stopping in today because each day that you stop to see my Unity Project, you will be entered to WIN some Unity Stamps yourself!

A random winner will be chosen at the end of the week to receive

2 itty bitty

stamps

of their choice

For my project today, I decided to create a "Thank You Tag" for Christmas". After all of the gift giving is over, it is a great idea to have some Thank You Tags and Cards to pass out to those who have shown you their generosity.

I started with a manilla tag from Unity and stamped the itty bitty, Vintage Handwritten, with my embossing ink. I heat embossed white powder then used 3 different colors of glimmer mist around the entire tag. The colors fit beautifully together and because they were more on the dark tone spectrum, the white really stands out.

I added a piece of vellum as a top layer to the tag.

I tied it together with some fun 3 Girl JAM Goblin Green Crinkle Ribbon.

Thank You sentiment by Unity (in a grab bag I purchased, so not quite sure what set it belongs to). The lamp post is an image from the echo park set better with love by Unity.

Stop over TODAY to do some shopping with Unity Stamp Co. Angela is such a doll, and she offers up sales ALL the time. So check back often to be sure you don't miss any of the amazing deals being offered.

Other Supplies used:

the fine leaf and the red and white roses were a wonderful gift from the sweet Heather Flaherty

Dual Tip Brush Markers
TH Distress Ink - Vintage Photo
Fabric Flowers from Pinque Peacock Shop (more coming soon!)
Zots glue dots
TPC Studios Holly Jolly Bling

Thanks for stopping in today.
Please be sure to come back tomorrow and every day this week, for more chances to win the prize being sponsored by Unity Stamp Company

SEE YOU TOMORROW

"Owl Made by My Friends" Showcase & Giveaway

Happy Hump Day Blends!

Today, I am happy to be joining

my SFF, Heather Lynn and a group of talented crafty friends

as we all share

some cute Owl Projects

in the

"Owl Made by My Friends" Showcase!

It is sorta like a Blog Hop

in the sense that you can visit all of the blogs

and swoon over the fun

Owl projects.

Start over at Heather Lynn's Blog

to read about the fabulous prizes

up for grabs!!!

Pinque Peacock Handmade Fabric Flowers

and

All of this Christmas Splendor

Here is the project I am sharing

for the Showcase Today:

For my card I used white card stock as the base.

I stamped the Owl Crew using the

Freakin' Adorable Itty Bitty by Unity Stamp Co.

I used embossing ink and 3 separate colors of embossing powder.

I just sprinkled a light amount of each color

in opposite spots around the image.

(one color at a time and shake off excess onto separate work

areas on your craft table, so not to mix your colors)

The sentiment is from the Owly Hoo sentiment set by K. Andrew.

I finished off with a fun Pinque Peacock Felt Flower

and Beaded Stick Pin (so happy to be introducing

some orange hues to the fun mix at the store).

Thanks Heather Lynn, for a wonderful

showcase and for letting

me take part!

3 Girl JAM/Creative Inspiration Paints Blog Hop!

Welcome to the 3 Girl JAM/Creative Inspiration Paints blog hop!

If you came from Kendra's blog then you are in the right place.

3 Girl Jam and Creative Inspiration Paints have teamed up to show you all the fun things you can create with ribbon and paint! Make sure to check out our stores to see the latest and greatest products that you can use on your own projects!

I really enjoyed pairing up the fabulous Creative Inspirations Paint
with my undeniable love for 3 Girl JAM Ribbon.

I started with Kraft Cardstock and stamped
the wonderful Christy Tomlinson Image, SHE leaped by Unity
using Archival Black Ink.
I used all the colors that CIP was so generous to send
me for this Hop!
Thanks CIP!
The colors used were:
Sapphire, Mocha Latte, Tutu Pink,
Fairy Dust (<<<love this>>>)
Sea Foam, and Orange .

I painted several layers until I got the effect
that I was hoping for.

I loved that the dress pattern matched
a wonderful Chevron Canvas Strip from 3 Girl JAM.
I added a small piece to the left and to the right,
trimming to flow along the outline of her dress.
I also used the beautiful
Christmas Candy Crinkle Ribbon
to tie around the waste of the dress.

If you are wondering where
I obtained the cute little pink
fabric flower and guessed
Pinque Peacock . . .
then you would be correct!

PRIZES: 3GJ and CIP will each offer a prize.
