December Days Mini Album with Carrie!

Published on December 16, 2014December 16, 2014 by Taniesa1 Comment

Hi Crafty Friends!
Today, designer Carrie Bryant, is showing off her December mini album. Totally adorable! Check it out!

Today I am going to share with you the start of my December Days album. This year I have decided to document December Weekly instead of daily. I am a bit behind…. go figure.

This is my album cover. I covered a 6×8 Snap binder from Simple Stories
with some paper from Heidi Swapp’s Believe collection. I love this
paper line, I bought a lot of it last year so I chose to use it for most
of this album. I also sprayed a Heidi wood veneer word “together” with
some gold Color Shine.

Using my custom flair from TheCraftyPickle really helps to make this a special keepsake.

Week 1 – My husband Bill and I spent a 4 day weekend in
NYC. We had a wonderful time, just the two of us. The city really was
all dressed up for Christmas. To document each Week, again I used some custom CraftyPickle flair. I also used the great Arrow set and some Holiday sequins to embellish my pages.

Week 2 – We went to Wickerd Farms to pick a fresh Christmas Tree. More pages to follow soon….

I really love that Taniesa will create any design just for You!

Thanks for stopping by today.

Merry Christmas to you and yours.

Happy Scrappin’

I love everything about this, Carrie!!! Thanks so much for sharing with us!

Merry and Bright by Stephanie

Published on December 15, 2014December 15, 2014 by Taniesa1 Comment

Hi Crafty Friends!

Designer, Stephanie, is on the blog today with her christmas layout using the Merry and Bright flair as well as the winter sequins mix! Too cute… and will you look at that santa photo, totally ADORABLE!

I love looking back on pictures from Christmases past and my project today shares a photo of the kids with Santa in 2009. They were just babies!! And this is my favorite picture with Santa, ever!

I have used the Winter Sequins Mix from The Crafty pickle, along with their Merry & Bright flair button from the December set. These are the perfect compliment to any layout, be it Christmas-themed or not!

I punched the snowflakes with my Martha Stewart punch & the deer head is a new punch from EK Success. The black paper & the “Enjoy every day” journal card are from 7Dots Studio.

I used one of my favorite date stamps from Dear Lizzy to stamp the “I Love This” sentiment. And the fun pink polka dot paper is from Elle’s Studio.

Be sure to stop by The Crafty Pickle shop to browse all of the great products that are offered!!

Thanks for stopping by today!

Thanks Stephanie! I love how you used non traditional colors with this layout too!

Happy Crafting,

Do you want to build a Snowman….. with Cathy?

Published on December 12, 2014December 12, 2014 by Taniesa1 Comment

Hi Crafty Friends,

Designer, Cathy, is back today sharing a fab snowman layout! Take a look!

If there’s one thing my kids love, it’s building snowmen, and getting to build one in November calls for a layout. For this layout I thought what better products to use then Crafty Pickle flair and sequins. I used the Winter Mix sequins as well as two flair badges from the January flair set. The royal blues were a perfect compliment to my photos and I love the pop of pink and red. For my layout I dug deep, and I mean DEEP into my stash, there are items on this layout that I bought back around 2009-2010 that I had all about given up on ever using! There are quite a few items that I would have purged if I had actually ever gotten around to purging, but getting to use up very old stash items just makes me feel accomplished!

I love how colorful this is and the layering is just beautiful. Great job Cathy!!!

Have a great weekend everyone!

Happy Crafting!

Ornaments with Flair!

Two posts in one day? Yep! I couldn’t wait to share designer, Carrie’s, Ornaments she created with some TCP Custom glitter flair. Take a look!!

Today I wanted to share with you a project I created for my Bunco Group.

I started with some unfinished laser cut star ornaments. Next I sprayed them with my Tinsel Color Shine by Heidi Swapp. This gave them a pretty silver metal finish. I then attached my custom flair from TheCraftyPickle and finished them off with some beautiful red ribbon.

Thanks for stopping by today. If you would like to order some custom flairs it’s super easy, contact Taniesa from TheCraftyPickle and she will make you something beautiful.

December Daily update with Treasa!

Published on December 9, 2014December 9, 2014 by Taniesa3 Comments

Hi Crafty Friends!

Treasa has been working on her December Daily and it is ADORABLE! Check out her progress!

Hi there, today I wanted to share a few cards I made for my December Daily. First up I wanted to share how I was documenting my days of the month in my album.

As soon as I seen these flair in The Crafty Pickle shop I knew I had to use them in my album. I love the silver glitter and the fun font. These Elegant December flair add the perfect touch to my pages even with some sparkle.

I also made some cards to add in my album using more of the fabulous flair found in The Crafty Pickle. First up is the card I made to document the return of our Elf on the Shelf Elvis Parsley. The Personalized Elf flairs are perfect and I love how you can get them personalized with your elf’s name.

Up next is a card that was inspired by my album that I am suing for my December Daily. I totally fell in love with the burlap and rustic look of it. So I decided to make a card using burlap and one of the flair badges from the December button flair set.

And lastly, I had to make a card to document my love of Starbucks red cups. These red cup flair buttons was a special request and I think they turned out fabulous.

I have to say that I am loving all the flair buttons that I have received from The Crafty Pickle and how I can personalize my album and cards. It makes this album so much more special. Please visit The Crafty Pickle and remember that Taniesa takes special orders, so if you don’t see it in the store, send her a message.

Don’t forget to stop by The Crafty Pickle for me fabulous and creative ideas.

Thanks Treasa! I love everything about your album so far and look forward to seeing the finished project!!!Happy Crafting!
