Sale on my Etsy and a few things I have created!

Hey all it has been a few weeks since I have had the chance to post. I know shame on me! I have been busy though and now that the weather has taken a definite turn for the worse..(by worse I mean Freezing Cold!!) I know I will probably have more time to post!

The first thing I want to mention is that I am having a clearance sale on all of my Thanksgiving and Fall items in my etsy store. Use the coupon code Fall25 and receive an additional 25% off the already reduced prices! I need to clear it out so that I can add in all the new holiday and winter items!

Look in the next few days to see some stick pins, beaded charms and new winter flower collections!!

So check out my store either by clicking on the widget in the upper right hand corner of your screen or clicking HERE and the link will take you right to my store!

Now, I am currently in a challenge over at Your Paper Pantry with my friends Vanessa and Amanda. We had to create something that used the following items: Bling, flowers and lace.

I had to get cracking on a gift for my sister for Christmas so I decided to use this as an opportunity to do so. Here is what I came up with!

I made this for my sister... as you can see I have all three elements plus I through in this gorgeous feather that I found at Hobby Lobby in the Christmas area.. Lovely... I made the flowers...two grunge roses and then another one of the Tim Holtz flowers!

I am also in a tag swap with a few of the girls from YPP.. Alex, V, and Janet are in my group... click on their names to visit their blogs!

I have made one of the tags for the swap so far and I know my pal Mandy from YPP wants to see it... so I am going to post it here ... in hopes that none of the other girls see it :D

I used Black Tulle over the Grey blue cardstock and then layered a flat lace that I glimmered over it. I used iamroses that I sprayed with Lindy Stamp Gang's Screamin' Banshee Black starburst spray. They came out almost blue instead of black. I had some older Foofala letters that I cut apart and inked with weathered wood distress ink and used my craft knife to rough the edges. On the back I used a small white tag envelope and a #4 tag, I made a charm and made a small rose bouquet for the tag using the small iamroses, I added a piece of black lace as well :) I love how the tulle came out and when I heated it it looks weathered and torn now... gives great dimension!

Thanks for checking these out and I do hope you can take a look at my etsy store!
