Advent Box Templates and Tip Sheets!

Good evening friends! So sorry for the delay in getting these tip sheets out to you today! They took way longer than I had anticipated to put together but I have at least one of them done and am hoping to get the other two done this weekend. Each of the three advent boxes I created are different in size as well as what are used as the 'container' inside :) I can't wait to show you the other two!!!

These advent boxes were created from foam board I bought at the Dollar Tree. I have tried foam board from other places but this stuff was by far the easiest to cut!!! Below you will find print outs not only with directions and measurements to create the advent box itself but also how to assemble to boxes inside (also purchased at Dollar Tree) and a template for the header I created to put Kylie's name on. 

Kylie loves to hunt with her daddy (but hasn't really been able to since being diagnosed with JDM) so when I saw this deer themed paper from Prima, I knew I had to use it! I also created a little foam/paper tree to use as decoration on top of the advent box.

Wednesday Trends with Jenny

Hi all! Jenny here. Wow- I am so nervous to be typing up my very first post on the TSG blog!!! Eeek! I hope I don't crash the system.....no, seriously. I am really crossing my fingers here! Computer saavy I am not, but luckily for you, crafty I am!
So, my Wednesday trend is actually more of a 'tip' or 'trick'. I am a huge hoarder collector of dies. I don't honestly think I could make a card without using my Bigshot and cutting something out (hey, maybe that should be a future challenge;)...I think I find it cathartic or something! I NEED to CUT! And, like most of you, I like to get more bang for my buck. So, I am always trying to discover fun new ways in which to use my collection. Since TSG has recently come out with a few WONDERFUL dies, I thought it would be fun to show you a different way to use one of these fabulous dies!
World's Best Die was designed to be a companion die to the World's Best stamp set, but what if you don't own that set? Does that mean that World's Best Die is not in the cards for you?? NOOOOOO, it absolutely does NOT! I have made a sweet little card today, showing you that you can find different uses for dies that are typically *made* to go with a specific set! More bang people. More bang.

I made a clean-ish card, using images from the set My Little Friend. The grass was made using the flag banner from World's Best die. I created various heights in 'blades' by just trimming the overhang at the bottom. The sun was made using the flower shaped portion of the die, and the rays were cut from the looped, ribbon looking banner die. I then stitched around the edge of the card to anchor the grass and add definition to the sun. The sentiment was stamped on a CS cloud. I then added my images, planting them in the blades of grass, bending the grass strips at the ends for a little pop! Cute, no?

Well, I hope that you enjoyed my card and are die-ing to try this tip;) You really don't always have to stick to using paper crafting supplies for exactly what they are meant for! I think stretching your creativity as a designer is better than following the rules! I hope that I have lent a little inspiration to you today and you will try to find new and different uses for your dies:)

Thanks for joining me!

Wednesday Trends

Hi Everyone . . . it's Jackie here and it's my turn to host Wednesday Trends. I decided that the trend I would like to focus on today is dress forms. When using the TSG stamp set Lighten Up for my Lighten Up Bookmark Card I realized that I could create a dress form from the lampshades and lampstands. Below is a chart that shows you which stamps I used to create my dress form. There are so many different configurations that could be put together. I stamped out all of the images on scratch paper and then cut them out and just played with different combinations. Then after I figured out the combination I wanted, I stamped the images on my final paper and then cut them out. It was so much fun . . . give it a try to see what you can come up with! :)
