Denami January Blog Hop - Wonderful Washi!!!

Hello to all!  It's time for another fabulous DeNami blog hop!  This month is all about WASHI TAPE!!!!  I LOVE washi tape, so I was super excited to make a DeNami project with lots and lots of washi!

So today I wanted to make a birthday card!  I go through those most often, so I wanted to take this chance to make a fun and colorful birthday card:

I used two different types of polka dot washi tape, some colored cardstock strips and DeNami stamps to create this fun colorful card!  Washi is so easy to work with, and it also adds lots of color without adding a lot of extra bulk, making it the perfect product for cards that you want to mail!  =)

DeNami December Blog Hop - Pretty Packaging!!!

Hello to all!  It's time for another fabulous DeNami blog hop!  This month is all about perfect packaging!!!!  I don't normally make my own packaging, so this sure was a fun challenge for me!!!

If you are just stumbling on this blog hop right now, head back HERE to start from the beginning!  If you've been hopping along you should have come here from the amazing blog of my sweet and crafty friend Emily Keaton!!! Her projects are always so fabulous!!!  Don't forget to leave a comment on each blog for a chance to win a $20 DeNami gift certificate!  =)

So today I wanted to make two different types of packaging: a decorated box and a gift bag!  I also made gift tags to go with each project:

The box was my first project!  I started with a plain kraft box, and decorated the top by stamping that cute DeNami tree on it and then using different types of stickles and glitter/quickie glue pen combos to bling up the trees!  Here's the box before I wrapped it: 

Then I added some festive ribbon and a gift tag: 

 ... and voila!  I really love how this one turned out!  I always need little boxes like this for all of the Christmas goodies I buy!  =)  And now onto the gift bag!  

I used a combination of washi tape, ribbon, stamps, and scor-tape/glitter to create the bag:  

 

I really like how the gift tag for this one turned out too: 

Well, I hope I gave you some inspiration for the upcoming holiday season!  I know that I sure had fun making all of these projects!

Let's get you hopping along!  Next up on the hop is lovely Wendy Harrill and I'm sure she has something absolutely fabulous lined up for you!!!  Happy hopping everyone!

DeNami November Blog Hop - Thoughtful Thank Yous!

Hello to all!  It's time for another fabulous DeNami blog hop!  This month we are all about being THANKFUL!!  This is one of my favorite types of projects, so I was super excited for the challenge!!

If you are just stumbling on this blog hop right now, head back HERE to start from the beginning!  If you've been hopping along you should have come here from the amazing blog of Deanna Dean!!! I'm sure her project was just fabulous!  Don't forget to leave a comment on each blog for a chance to win a $20 DeNami gift certificate!  =)

So, I've been wanting to make a thank you card for my grandfather.  Seeing as it's Veteran's Day (and he's a veteran), I thought this would be a great opportunity to make him something that I'd really love to give him!  However, I didn't want to use the traditional Red/White/Blue colors, but more something that would fit this time of year!  I was inspired by this piece of patterned paper that I've been hoarding, and so I used it two ways:

I used a strip of it to peek out over the scalloped edge border, and then I cut out individual leaves to help make the background!  And who doesn't love an owl?  I couldn't resist this Denami lovely:

I hope you enjoyed this card!  I can't wait to see how much my grandpa likes it! 

Let's get you hopping along!  Next up on the hop is lovely Pattie Goldman and I'm sure she has something absolutely fabulous lined up for you!!!  Happy hopping everyone!
