Hello to you and Merry Christmas! I have a simple little tutorial on decking out a simple kraft pillowbox using some yummy Riddersholm goodies. Gather the goodies you want to use and a pillowbox base and we are ready to go. I used a pillowbox from Wplus9 designs but there are many simple templates for free online as well. I started by diecutting a few layers of papers from the NEW Our Country Christmas paper pad. Wrapping the largest layer around the pillowbox and adhering. Than simply wrapping my lace around the box and tying a big bow at the top. From there, layer the next diecut and adhere with some gorgeous glitter brads from the store. I used a wood scallop tag for my vintage image from the I believe collection. Riddersholm has some of the neatest chipboard/wood pieces. It is all about the layering process for me....after adding the wood tag/image I added some vintage pearl baubles and a metal charm with a sweet little Santa image from the Country Christmas line. I used an epoxy bubble cap to cover him. From here a little more ribbon and twine and it is complete. This little cutie is ready to fill with candies.....preferably Hersey kisses. My favorite! Hope you enjoy! hugs, cherry

Because my friends know I make cards, every once in a while a friend asks if I will make as small set of cards for them to give out for unanticipated occasions – a thanks here, a hope you’re feeling better there. No pressure! I wouldn’t want to give them loose cards so a pretty solution will fit the bill. Hi there, I’m Becca Feeken with Amazing Paper Grace and today I’m going to show you how to assemble a small card ensemble in a matching basket pretty enough to sit out and be right at hand. The basket is going to made using Spellbinders S5-271 Venetian Gatefold and the handle is embellished with the tiny scallop from Spellbinders S4-705 Graceful Brackets. The cards will carry the same motif as the basket and a faux bow adorns each card – made using the buckle element from Spellbinders S4-732 Vintage Elegance Curled Grace Oval. My ensemble includes four cards and four envelopes – each card is 5″ x 4-1/4″ Let’s get started: 1. Tape the two die templates from Spellbinders S5-271 Venetian Gatefold to a thin typewriter weight paper (under 24lb). Check to be sure the templates are far enough apart to accommodate an envelope sized to your liking. Mine are space 6″ apart. 2. Cut/Emboss two identical pieces from cream cardstock – trim across the bottom to complete the cutting. 3. Score between the two valleys on the peaked pieces, then score 1-1/4″ above that – cut off any excess at that line. 4. Cut a cream strip 3/8″x 11″for handle. Using Crystal Accents cover the front of two peak motifs on one piece and glue to the wrong side of the peak motifs on the other piece forming a rectangular box. Before glue is dry slip end of handle between the two peak motifs on each side. 5. Cut a cream panel 6″wide by 3-1/8″ wide – score 1/2″from each edge, add scortape to the flaps – glue panel inside rectangular box with scortape engaging on insides of the long sides of box. 6. Tape the two die templates from Spellbinders S5-271 Venetian Gatefold to a thin typewriter weight paper (under 25 lbs). Move the templates so they are butted up against each other sided to side, but not overlapping. Cut/emboss 6 – four cream and two pink. Complete the small uncut line and trim the panel to 3-1/5″ high. In addition cut four card bases that are 5″x 8-1/2″and score in half so that resulting card is 5″ x 4-1/4″. 7. Finish Basket by adhering pink panels to side. Cut four mini scallop borders and glue to handle then embellish with a 1/8″strip of gold. Mat a strip of card stock onto flaps. Attach a bow to front flap. 8. Make four cards by adhering cream die cut panels to pink card bases. Wrap ribbon around back and attaching at front with hot glue. Thread two 4′” ribbon loops through the buckle motif from Spellbinders S4-732 Vintage Elegance Curled Grace Oval to make a faux bow then glue to top of card. Add ribbon rose and pearls. Place the cards in the basket and off you go to drop your gorgeous composition off with a friend. What an encourager you are! Best case scenario – they’ll be hitting you up to refill it up every month! Sending hugs!

Helllllllllo to you! I am excited today because I get to share a little tutorial I am sharing over at the Really Reasonable Ribbon blog. I decided to keep things simple here and show you (with many pics) how to create your own rolled shabby bloom. Now many of you may be familiar with how to do these. I am always late to the party but humor me, ok? LOL! I decided to use some of the burlap ribbon in teal. This stuff is great..first it has wire in it and is very forgiving ..and secondly it is just plain gorgeous. I love burlap of any kind..and this is so cool because it has gorgoeus ticking style stripes through it. The other thing main goody I used were the Middy biddy polka dot Kraft bags. Great bags to use to put yummy treats in or create tags like I did to tuck inside. I started by tying a simple knot in the end of the ribbon...leaving just a snip of it at the end. This makes for a place to hold on to and the base of the actual bloom. Start wrapping the ribbon around the knot and than alternating every so often by twisting the ribbon in a 360. Every so often use some hot glue to keep the ribbon in place. This ribbon is very easy to manipulate so just have fun with it. Just keep repeating the steps till the bloom becomes the size you want. You can create small ones or larger ones. Mine is medium because I decided to add texture to mine by adding some vintage hankie fabric and a crochet doily. As you can see from the pics I simply just layered each piece on top of eachother.....using hot glue. I attached my bloom to my bag and than added all the fun toppings! I had to use some lace and used both the Allison lace and the Penelope lace combining both together. I topped it off with some of the new two tone texture ribbon from May Arts . I used some of the same ribbons on my tags and also used some of the sweet jute in blue that I tied onto the tags and in my buttons. I tucked my tags into the bag..leaving some room for a sweet treat and I was done! Hope you have enjoyed ...and uhhh hope I made sense. Don't look to close at my nails....I am not a manicure chick...at all...I would rather spend my mad money on paper! Hugs, cherry

***PLEASE NOTE - This listing is for a crochet pattern and is not for the completed item!*** This pattern includes instructions on how to make, assemble and decorate your crown (and how to easily adjust the size of the white brim section to fit a variety of heads)! The finished crown is perfect for use as a costume or for adding to a post box topper. This pattern is written in English, using American crochet terms and contains photos to help you every step of the way. You will need: Chunky yarn (I used stylecraft special chunky which is 144m per 100g) in the following colours: White (approx. 126m). Purple (approx. 116.5m). Gold (approx. 258m). Please note = The amount of yarn used will vary according to yarn weight, hook size and stitch tension so these measurements are only a rough guide. You will also need: A 4.5mm hook Toy Stuffing (for the white brim section). A polystyrene / Styrofoam ball that’s 6cm in diameter. 2 sheets (33 x 26cm) of ‘7 count’ plastic canvas. A higher count (that’s the number of holes per inch) will mean the plastic is more bendy so stick to 7 count if possible. Some clear nylon ‘invisible’ thread. This is optional but is required if you want your crown to have a gap between the top of the purple hat section and the gold bars above it. As many sparkly buttons / beads / gems / decorations as you can find, and a similar gold or brown colour sewing thread with which to attach them. An 8m string of gold sequins - these are optional but they really help to make your crown sparkle if you can bear sewing them all on! Other tools you will need are some scissors, stitch markers, a tapestry needle and some pins. You are welcome to sell the items that you make using this pattern, but please do not sell / share the pattern itself. Thank you.
