Divine Sleep

Ok, so let me just start by saying that I'm soooooo sorry for being MIA! I was host to a Twilight: Breaking Dawn release party and it CONSUMED me! I haven't had a full night's sleep in about a week preparing for this event. And let me just tell you that it was worth it!!! The party itself was so super fun. We watched all three of the previous movies while making Twilighty crafts, playing games, winning prizes and eating yummy, yummy goodies. Check out the vampire goodness that my friends Dana and Bailey brought to the party....

Is this awesome treat not perfect!?!!!! And it was oh-so-yummy too!!! I also put together a totally rad raffle bag (made by yours truly) that included a ton of stuff I brought back with me from Forks, WA this past summer (you all remember my trip right? LOL) along with other cooler than cool prizes. That raffle ROCKED! Here's what last night's winner won. Check it out....

And then, of course, there was the theater we rented out for everyone. Not only did we NOT have to wait in any lines, we got a discount on our ticket, didn't have to sit through all the pre-featured-film advertisements, AND the theater treated us like royalty. I just want to send a shout out to Harkins for making this whole experience AWESOME!!! High Fives Harkins, High Fives! Yesterday was definitely a night to remember. And without spoiling anything for anyone.... Breaking Dawn Part 1 was THE BEST Twilight movie yet!!! The performances were amazing, the special effects were incredible and even though I read all the books, I was STILL on the edge of my seat waiting for what was going to happen next.

Oh! I almost forgot to mention the charms pictured at the beginning of this post!!! Who wants some Twilighty blog candy???? Chime in and I will share the deets!!!

Ok gang.. that's it, I'm out. Time for some much needed sleep!!!

Past 7 Days....

BACK To Halloween.... WHEW!

Okay... BACK to Halloween gifting this week! We're makin more goody boxes using The Cutest Halloween Bundle again this week, we are also featuring the tags and labels dies from the July - December 2021 Mini Catalog (lovingly dubbed "the holiday mini"). I've got to admit, this bundle really is the cutest and I'm having SOOOO much fun playing with it simply because of how easy it is to work with. The fact that the punch ALSO punches out the images from the DSP makes this one a super-huge winner for me. I mean.... three goody projects in under an hour!?! That's right! This week's Freebie Friday On A Monday was actually recorded in under 40 minutes! SO DOABLE to get ready for Halloween gifting! As always, the link to the free PDF with supplies used and measurements is below the last pic and if you place a $35 or more from my online store (click "Shop With Me" in the banner at the top of this blog) using this week's Host/Hostess code GHRG

It's An Outrage.... ANOTHER Christmas Project Before Halloween??? You'll Thank Me!

Okay you guys! This is the last Words Of Cheer project for the week. This one features the dies from the Bundle ( CLICK HERE TO PURCHASE ) and is CASED directly from the July-December 2021 Mini Catalog page 20: I just reimagined the card pictured in the catalog as a box... but not just ANY box..... A CRACKER BARREL PECAN LOG ROLL BOX!!!! Here is the list of colors/cardstock used (except for the vellum, it is ALL from scraps... YAY): 1 3/4" x 4 5/8" Vellum, Pool Party, Very Vanilla, Soft Suede and Brushed Metallic Cardstock. I finished this off with a scrap piece of linen thread even! THIS is why we keep those scraps! Honestly... nothing went to waste with this one. Below is the video on how to make the box. Normally I wouldn't be posting Christmas projects before Halloween, but COME ON.... this one is SOOOO worth the preview. Besides, now you can get a head start for Christmas gifting.... PECAN LOG ROLLS FOR EVERYONE!!!
