52 Wks. Challenge

Happy Monday Morning!!!

What a great start of 2014, I have... full of energy, positives thoughts and looking forward to many changes that are coming for us as a Family, not forgetting Craft-wise!! By The way have you heard of this Challenge? Well it goes like you will save any amount of money per week, 1st week you save $1.00, the 2nd week you save $2.00 and so on...

Well since this year has just started with the right foot in place, I have decide to challenge myself with 52 Weeks Money Challenge (I will add a bit more $$ every-time I possibly can)... It will serve of course as a Savings Method, and also use this money as a reward for myself on keeping it up and staying on budget without over spending on Craft Stuff or anything else As I called PRIORITIES.

For this project I use Art Philosophy Cricut Collection and Artiste Cricut Collection 

From Artiste

(For the Topper) 

Page 49 Accent 3, Key o and then Accent 3 Shift Key O

From Art Philosophy

(Front and Back Square)

Page 24 at 4'' then Layer Key

For the Sentiment 52 Wks $ Challenge I use Art Philosophy cutting them at 1/2" 

The $(money symbol) came from Artiste Cricut Collection To match the topper Page 34 number 4

I choose Black Cardstock and White Daisy Carstock since the lid of the container is Black. The ribbon came from my stash and I use hot glue to attached around. Black Twine added Baker's Twine Neutral Assorment 

Follow Vanessa Toro's board CTMH on Pinterest. I hope I have inspired you in someway... and to keep up with your New Year's Resolutions and Goals!

Snowman Soup Gifts

Good Morning Everyone!!

Today's project is this easy peasy Snowman Soup Paint Bucket, I made from the begining to the end. Everything as you can see is Handmade except for the lids :)

I start thinking What other gift I can made, without expending extra money and the Middle School teachers would love.

I said Manson Jars? Not that cost a fortune when I need 6, for the Middle School Teachers, Store Bough Paint Buckets, Not that will add up,even more right?

I remember myself I have some Transparency Paper sitting in the shelf....Bingo 

So the process began...

I cut the Transparency Paper 9x6 1/2 and add Sticky/Red Tape Only in the back, dont worry the Lids will keep it tight and the White and Red Yarn will serve as extra protection closure...

I used Sparkle and Shine papers from Close To My Heart if I only new I will be addicted to this Paper Packet is so beautiful and the colors are AMAZING!

I cut 1/2'' strips from the coordinates designs papers include on this Packet to cover the lids around, again using the Sticky Tape or Red Tape...Isn't this Gifts ADORABLE, I ended making 11 of this, for my husband and my oldest son, they want some, to give away and 1 extra for me!!!

Look at his cute happy face, I just love him....

The Stamp I use is Share the Magic (Retired) D1443 one of my old times favorite stamps from Close To My Heart, I got to love this company!!! For the Scallop I use Art Philosophy Cricut Collection cut it at 3'' page 41 and for the circle I cut it at 2 3/4'' white for the stamp and Cranberry for the Lids Tops and add Foam Dots.

I use Red and White Yarn to secure the bottom and Top Lid as I mention above. I think every project deserve some kind of Bling Bling or a touch of sparkle right,

 a touch of Liquid Glass Glue and some Silver Glitter from my stash and he is all ready!!! I colored the image using Cranberry Exclusive Markers Set and Sweet Leaf Exclusive Markers Set for his twigs I colored them using Water Color Pencils Brown Bag

Candy Canes, Marshmellows and 1 pack of store bough Hot Cocoa are the ingredients that are inside!!!

Thank You for stoping by and Have a Bless Merry Christmas!!!

Most of you know me by know, but for those that are the first time visiting me here is a little about

My name is Vanessa and I have been Crafting after a Family trip to Disney World back 2007,  after that I start looking for more ways to learn different techniques and such. I have 3 kids, we live in the State of Alaska for the last couple of years, My Husband proudly serve in the Military and soon he will be retiring "YES"

I love what I do and I enjoy it every minute of it. I'm also a Close To My Heart Consultant because I love Paper Crafting in general and their product line is amazing.  I'm also on Scraptastical Kreations Design Team and I love it. 

I own many Electronic Cutting Machine first 3 generations of Cricut and My lovely Baby Cameo, my projects include a little bit of everything but sometimes are SVG Files more than anything else or vice-versa.

Now on to my project.

This is me and my husband. I decide to make something that really is just both of us.
I always make cards, Scrapbook layouts etc. but this time I really want to make something different and special, so YES I did make this Picture Frame, although I enjoy so much I'm thinking to make a second one to place some where around the house, maybe a bigger version one, who knows, I will leave it to my mojo and see what I can come up.
I made this My Creations Braket Frame from Close To My Heart. I use Buzz and Bumble Paper Pack

I cut from page 53 at 10 3/4' using Art Philosophy Cricut Cartridge, to cut the center I use my Exacto Knife. I ink the edges using  Chocolate Exclusive Ink and I sand the edges to give a smooth texture and look.

All flower are from Prima, isn't Gorgeous, I think their flower are amazingly beautiful. To protect the picture inside from dust I use a Transparency Paper 8 x 11' and glue in, first using clear glue dots.
I'm really excited how this My Creation Picture Braket Frame turns out.

Thank You for stopping by and for all the great Comments!!
Thank You
