SDS Hocus Pocus ~ with Cyndy G.

Today I wanted to share with you the new SDS Hocus Pocus Kit.  There are so many cute projects in this kit.  Halloween has always been a very fun holiday for me and my family.  My kids get so excited around this time of year!

Cards, spider, and springy pumpkin

All the projects in this kit are quick and easy to put together and they have such Wow factor.  
I think my favorite piece of this kit is the potion bottle card.

This springy pumpkin is so fun.  You can use your favorite patterned paper like I did or you can use solid color paper.  This pumpkin goes together so quickly and looks so complicated.  

Springy pumpkin

I love this little box.  I used some Limeade - Trendy Twine to tie the box shut.


And last but not least a scary spider!

I added little red eyes to my spider, so spooky!

I hope you have enjoyed my projects today!  
I look forward to seeing what you do with this fun new kit.

Do what inspires you,

He's Alive ~ with Cyndy G.

"He's alive."  How many of you thought of Frankenstein when you read this line?  Well you will not be disappointed.  Today I am sharing my version of Frankenstein and his Bride.  They were so much fun to make.  I used JGW Sam the Scarecrow and Spooky Friends to create this wonderful couple.

Frankenstein and the Bride of Frankenstein

I am very pleased with how these two turned out.  I think they have the cutest faces.

I used a sticker to string between Frankenstein's arms.

I also used a sticker for the Bride of Frankenstein's banner.

I hope you have enjoyed my project today.  I had so much fun creating these two.

Jolly Old Saint Nicholas, Lean Your Ear This Way ~ with Cyndy G

Can you believe it is time to start thinking about Christmas.  I remember as a child going to the mall and seeing Santa's Chair with the sign saying when he would arrive.  Still to this day I get a little excited when I see his chair sitting awaiting his arrival.  So you can imagine my delight when I saw the new kit JGW Santas Repose!  I choose to do Santa's Chair.

3d svg Santa's Chair

I love this over-sized chair.  From the extra cushion on the back to the rolled arms.

Isn't this paper cute!  It is Maja Design - Vintage Winter, it is made in Sweden but there are a couple of scrapbook supply stores on-line that sell it here in America.  It has a very nice weight and works well with these projects.

In Jodi's design of this chair she has this Santa tag on the front but 
I didn't want to cover up my cute paper so I put mine on the back.

Back of Santa Chair

I just love this tag.  The detail is wonderful!

 And the best part of the chair is that the bottom comes off and you can fit a gift card in it.

I hope you have enjoyed my project today.

Garden Goddess ~ with Cyndy G.

It seems like just a few weeks ago summer was starting and now kids are starting to go back to school.  Don't forget tomorrow is the SVG Attic and 3 Girl JAM Back to School Blog Hop.  There will be plenty of inspiration for your Back to School projects and prizes!

For my project today I decided to make the Garden Goddess Canister from the JGW Summer Canister kit.

3d lady gardener box - Graphic 45 - Home Sweet Home

I used Graphic 45, Home Sweet Home papers.  They fit this project perfectly.

I substituted the flower pot that comes with the file with the seed packets 
from one of the sheets of Graphic 45 paper.

She has a sweet face.  I added a touch of chalk to give her rosy cheeks.

Close up of garden hat.

I really like her little garden hat.  I added some ribbon I received from 
3 Girl Jam.  I love the crinkle ribbon, it is very light and easy to use.

I hope you have enjoyed my project today and please join us for the blog hop tomorrow.

Breast Cancer Angel ~ with Cyndy

Hello today I bring you my version of the JGW Liberty Angel.  I turned mine into a Breast Cancer Angel.

3d paper Breast Cancer Angel

I love the hair on Jodi's version of the angel but I thought it more fitting to make mine with just a bow around her head.  A tribute to my dear friend Tami who is fighting breast cancer right now.

I also changed out the word America for Courage.

Close up of the banner "Courage"

I used the hearts and put them on a breast cancer ribbon I had.

I am very pleased with the way my angel came together.  I will say if you decided to take this project on give yourself plenty of time and don't rush it.  She has a brilliant design and I love all the details that are included but she is one of the harder pieces I have done.  I just love her and I plan to make more!  I hope you have enjoyed my project today!

Do what inspires you,
Cyndy G.
