V-Day Card Party update...

Today's my day to be the guest designer over at She's a Sassy Lady. If you have a moment please hop on over and leave me a comment. Here's my post:

Hi everyone! This is Kristy from craftin-on-my-door and I want to thank Sheila for allowing my to be her guest designer again today! I look forward to my monthly She's a Sassy Lady posts!

This month has been busy and crazy! So today I simply have some fun pictures to show you, that I hope will bring you all a little inspiration! I was so excited when Sheila introduced her card party. HERE is the link for Sheila's party.  And I was even more excited when a friend of mine decided to throw one! I was the lucky girl that got to make the favors. We had a valentine's theme and everyone made a Valentine's card and then brought the supplies for 5 of us to make the same card. Here are the cards:



 This is one of the cards I made.

 This is the other card I made (I made them for my mom since she's so busy with work and school!)
I thought that they were all adorable and it was so nice to have cards ready! We may even start this card club monthly with a different theme each month.

Here are the treats I came up with (can you tell that I LOVE Valentine's Day?!)
I made chocolate covered oreos and found some really cute molds at JoAnns. I also decorated these yummy caramel chocolate hearts!

 These were cute little notebooks that I found at Michaels. I dressed them up and thought that they would be cute for the husbands and wives to write little love notes back and forth to each other.
 Lastly, I made a larger version of the heart peppermint bark for each of the ladies!
 I hope these pictures will inspire you in either your card making, party planning, or just crafting! Thanks for stopping by today! ♥Kristy

Hello my crafty friends! Lately, I've been lucky to sneak in some scrapping while my Little Stinkerbella naps. Today I had the chance to work on DCWV's February Stack-a-holic Challenge. Here's the sketch:
And here's what I put together:
 The heart was cut from the Something to Celebrate cartridge.

Valentine's Day treats...

Hello my crafty friends! Today is a Craft Junkie Too Design Team Project day!!!! We were asked to create a Valentine's Day treat that could be mass produced. So I decided to whip up a quick and cute little treat! Here's what I came up with:
(I have to say that I am a fan of Becky at Inking Idaho, and used her adorable covered chocolates (here), as a starting point.)

I started by cutting some 2" hearts and the shadow layer from the Something to Celebrate cartridge.
 Then I stamped this heart off of the die cut heart using light pink ink.
 I also stamped a kiss using read ink.
 Then I stamped the perfect sentiment using brown ink and glued the white hearts onto the pink shadow layer.
 Next, I cut strips of V-Day paper at 2.5" x 6", and attached a piece of ribbon using my ATG.
 I put glue on both ends of the paper and then wrapped the paper around a chocolate caramel heart. Then I tied the ribbon together with a piece of twine.
 Lastly, I trimmed the edges of the ribbon and attached the heart with a foam square.
 I just {love} how they turned out! ;)
 Who wants to come over and eat some chocolate?! These went together so quickly that I think I might even make up a big batch for my MOPs friends on Valentine's Day!
I also put together some Valentine's Day peppermint bark treats. You can see how I made them HERE. (I know these pics are not great, but I was in hurry!)
Thanks for stopping by today! Go ahead, click HERE to head on over to Craft Junkie Too to see what the other design team members have created for today's project! ♥Kristy

Name signs...

Today's my day to be the guest designer over at She's a Sassy Lady. If you have a moment please hop on over and leave me a comment. Here's my post:

Hi everyone! This is Kristy from craftin-on-my-door and I want to thank Sheila for allowing my to be her guest designer again today! I look forward to my monthly She's a Sassy Lady posts!

This month I thought I would show you all a quick and fabulous Christmas gift. A friend of mine needed the help of me and my trusty Cricut to put together some gifts for her family and friends, and I through together a couple too! She started at Home Depot bought some baseboards and had them cut them down for her. Then she painted them and waited for my Cricut's arrival! We cut out each person's last name and "established" with the date they were married. Here's what we came up with...
 We love how they turned out! We made 10 of these to give out as gifts. For the last name I used Plantin Schoolbook and for the established I used the Calligraphy cartridge. Using my Gypsy, E2, vinyl, and a 12 x 24 mat these came together very quickly!

My friend also had some smaller baseboards that she had painted in different colors, so we decided to decorate some of these for teacher and friend gifts.
 For this one I used the Feeling Groovy and Calligraphy cartridges.
 On this sign I used Feeling Groovy and replaced the dot on the i with an asterisk.
 For this sign I used the Something to Celebrate and Calligraphy carts.
Thanks for stopping by today! ♥Kristy
