Altered Tic Tac Boxes

I love to recyle an item especially when it turns out as cute as these recyled Tic Tac holders. In winter, these are an ideal little "happy" for your Secret Pal or perhaps for the scouts in your troop. Email me and I will share the directions with you. Oh yeah, recently I saw in the drug store, a larger version of the Tic Tac box, so keep you eyes open for them, they would be super cute to use too! Peachy Heart Winter Hugs, Debbie

My Creations Memory Keeper - DC Decorated

I just Love our My Creations Memory Keepers! This one is decorated to hold Washington DC memoriabilia. Isn't it lovely!! You can store all kinds of precious mementos in these boxes. This particular box was decorated by a Corporate Artist. Since our company convention is in DC this coming July, it was a wonderful idea to showcase our box used this way. Hope you like it.

Altered My Creations Display Album

Have you been following the daily posting on CTMH's National Paper Crafting Month Blog? I hope so. If not, you need to check out the posts on a daily basis so that you can see the cute artwork and learn the tips or techniques shown and post a comment for the daily drawing to win a Felicity kit.

The post yesterday, reflected info on an altered My Creations Display Album, which was made with the Felicity papers and stamps. I love alterables. I hope you will try your hand at altering an item; holler at me if you have any questions. And good luck on entering the give-a-way!! Peachy Heart Hugs, Debbie

Field Trip Clipboards

Talking about Teacher gifts...here is another I made previously for one of Amanda's teachers. It's a clipboard she can use for field trips. The tabs on the front flip up for her to insert the list of student names attending and emergency contact numbers and the second one is for directions or other info. The little tin is for change, tickets or bandaids. I used the CTMH "School Zone" paper kit, which features the wonderful colors of Clover Meadow, Sunflower, Outdoor Denim and Cranberry. Cute huh?

Teacher's Notes

What crafter does not love to recycle? I stongly feel that we should be frugal as crafters and use our resources wisely. Teaching my L2L kids, I remind them often that we must be good stewards of God's blessings. So here is a wonderful altered project, which includes a cute charm from a broken bracelet and also a random stamped scrap of White Daisy cardstock...two recycled items on my project. I love to do composition books, especially with kids. I also did a composition book project at one of our retreats, and each lady wrote messages to the other ladies. A wonderful memory jogger for all attendees. This sample was made for Amanda's teacher. I hope she enjoys it, and you too. Peachy heart hugs, Debbie
