Guest Designer Cara from A Lady and Her Crafts

Hello everyone.  This is Cheri from DJ's Sundries and I am so excited to be introducing this week's Guest Designer, Cara, from "A Lady and Her Crafts".  I actually first found her on YouTube.  She makes amazing videos and I have followed her on YouTube for a long time.  You should really check her out on YouTube by clicking here.  Her sparkling personality is paralleled with her amazing crafting ability.  So without further ado...

In Cara's own words:

Here in Alaska the snow is finally starting to melt…things are starting to perk up and get green. I think that's why I was drawn to the beautiful green seam binding…I am so ready for SPRING! So the first thing I did was to alter the adorable muslin bags I received….here they are:

Here's a close up:

The supplies for this project were: seam binding and muslin bag (3 Girl Jam) sequins (Pretty Pink Posh), Jet Black Archival Ink (Ranger), Glossy Accents (Ranger), Love Deeply sentiment stamp from Group Hugs stamp set (Paper Smooches), Simplicity sentiment stamp from New Day stamp set (Precious Remembrance Shop), both dress stamps by Inkadinkado and Moon Shadow Mist (Lindy's Stamp Gang). Whew!

Next I made some thank you tags which included my first attempt at a shaker box. 

Here they are:

And here's another close-up.

The supplies for this project were: green seam binding (love, love, love it) from (3 Girl Jam), Dear Lizzy Neapolitan pattern paper (American Crafts), sequins (Pretty Pink Posh), Love Quotes & Filigree stamp sets (Mama Elephant), Jet Black Archival Ink (Ranger), Foam Tape (Scotch), Wood Veneer Stars (Studio Calico) and various Copic markers. 

I also posted a video to my YT channel (AKCaraboo) which shows not only these projects but the other goodies I received from 3 Girl Jam.

Hi Everyone- Julie here today!

I've been so busy making Christmas Cards and Christmas gifts over the past few weeks and now that I'm all done I'm not quite sure what to do with my time!

I just finished sending out around 40 Christmas cards to family and friends.

(Maybe yours is in this pile!)

Here's a peek at the different cards that I designed this year!

I also made some boxed card gift sets this year for a few people.

(I can't wait to give them out!)

We'd love to see what you've been working on for Christmas this year!

Make sure to link up photos of your Holiday Gifts!

You could win a $10.00 Gift Certificate to the 3 Girl JAM Store!!

Santa Hats Galore!

 

Hello, 3 Girl JAM friends.  Julie O on the blog today from Muddy Paws & Inky Fingers. Christmas is fast approaching, and with it, plenty of gatherings and parties. Tomorrow, I'm getting together after work with my staff, and I needed cards for each of them. What better way to personalize gifts than with the many colors of 3 Girl JAM ribbon and the new Christmas Flair buttons?  I got busy:

 

Aren't they adorable?  I'll show you each one so you can see them up close.

I used my Silhouette to cut out each of these Santa shaped cards.

 

 

 The first hat features 3 Girl JAM Goblin Green ribbon from the Spooky Bundle, and the peppermint twist Flair from the new Christmas Flair buttons.

Here's hat #2:

 

 

This hat uses the new Ribbon Candy Bundle and Christmas Flair button.

Hat #3 coming up:

 

 

This hat uses the Spooky Bundle ribbon again and a Pinque Peacock button.

And, hat #4:

 

 

This hat uses Merlot ribbon from the Wine and Jewels Bundle and another of the adorable Christmas Flair Buttons.

I'll leave you with one last picture of all the hats together.

 

 

I can check one more thing off the "to do" list! For more information on these Santa hat shaped cards, to see who won the 3 Girl JAM ribbon from the Holiday hop from my blog, and to see what else I've been working on, please visit my blog. Thanks for visiting!
