Freebie Friday: Festive Post

 Okay... so first off.... THANK YOU TO EVERYONE who puts up with all of my technical difficulties.  Techie I am not, but I DO love crafting and I love sharing and so here I am doing the thing and learning.  The funny thing is, I JUST ran across an old video I made back in 2012 that I did with an old-school camera and uploaded to YouTube.  I'll be sharing here sometime in the coming weeks... you guys are going to LOVE the "revamp".... STAY TUNED!!!  LOL!  

But this week we are all about holiday preparations... specifically Halloween!!!  You KNOW I loves me some Halloween!!!!  Remember, the free download link will be posted under the last pic in this post AAAAANNNNDDDDD if you spend $35 in my online store using hostess code 7FHHJEE2 before midnight on 10/16/20, I'll send you EACH of the make n' take kits from this week's Freebie Friday Facebook Life post!  YAYAYAYAYAY!

First up is that AWESOME Mini Curvy Keepsake Box die!!!  SHUT UP it's so cute!  When they say mini, honestly, there is only room for a few pieces of candy (maybe)... perfect for gifting to someone who you may want to spoil but you know they don't want to overindulge.


Of course the sentiment involved masking (this may be an addiction at this point) and the hole to the striped tag we created was made simply by poking through using the Take Your Pick Tool and mat that comes included..... SOOOO EASY!  This is such a quick gift to put together because the box die cuts and scores in one pass, there is no gluing.... COULDN'T be more simple... simpler..... easier!

This next one is just as quick and easy (you're welcome)!  Those rectangle tins are WONDERFUL and I'm filling mine with a s'mores kit!  YEAH BABY!!!


Last up is the twinkie box I featured in last month's Ghoulish Goodies Class To Go kit!  What an awesome class that featured 8 Halloween themed projects from small 3D goody boxes for treats to larger 3D goody boxes.... even a box to hold a trio of essential oils!  And along with the gift card holder, we also did a twinkie box!  Call or Text 602-708-6449 if you want to get your hands on this awesome Halloween Class To Go.... I ended up with 2 kits unclaimed. 


Anyway, back to our Festive Post fun....I LOVE this simple and easy project that really classes up the common twinkie!  LOL!


I actually did a FEW to show during our facebook live (10 twinkies DO come in a pack after all... LOL)... here are a couple:

  


And one last bonus for you.... a holiday tag:

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!!!
