Since the stores are doing it...

Then I am doing it!  That's right; it is ONE day after Halloween, and I am posting about Christmas! ha ha!  Actually, my Christmas motivation does not come from the stores;  No, it comes from my yearly (broken) promise to myself to GET CHRISTMAS STARTED EARLY!!  Yes!  This is MY YEAR...I will make handmade cards, gift tags & cute decorations to sprinkle ALL over my house!  Yes, everyday I will create for the holidays!  I will create so many lovely banners and crafty paper goodness, that I might even need (gasp!) TWO trees!  I am SO sticking with the plan this year.  See? I've already gotten started!  With the help of some CUTE new Holiday arrivals at Scraphappy,  I have officially kicked off on my quest...ONE whole tag & ONE whole layout, done! (I used our new Fancy Pants "Saint Nick" for both....Just one of our precious new lines in the store!)  By the way, I need to mention that, SOMETIMES I can be a bit over-zealous and tend to procrastinate with projects....but not this year of course!  wink wink.

Message Board idea...

HI guys,
Just wanted to show you a simple project we did here at Scraphappy. We used a feather boa to make a frame around one of the 11x14 magnetic metal panels. It made a really cute "frame." I'm thinking this would be cute to do again for Valentine's Day!
See you later!

So much to blog about!

Sorry it's been so long!! We have 2 new design team members, so we should start having posts every couple of days. Here at Scraphappy we have been doing class kits, making gifts, making gift bags, cards, ornaments, and tons of other Christmas stuff...
If you're like us, you are looking for some inexpensive gift ideas this year. We have a few ideas to show you, and will post others as we get them done!
Here are handmade ornamentswe did, that we grouped in a set of 4.

All we did was use some winter rub-ons, centered them and rubbed them on, then tied coordinating ribbon in a big bow. You could use letter rub-ons to do names or messages.
We also did some gift bags with cute little tags:





We have some card kits ready for those of you who havent finished your holiday cards yet! The kits have enough supplies to complete 10 cards with envelopes, everything is pre-cut, all you have to do is assemble! The kits come with 10 Bazzill cards, 10 envelopes, 10 embellishments, 10 brads, 5 yds of ribbon, and 10 card fronts.


We have 2 classes coming up soon, as well as some crops!





We are cropping Friday the 11th and Saturday the 19th.
