Got lots of things to do my on list today But wanted to get my blog post done 1st for the day .. This is one of the items I made to send in to SU! for the Ho! Ho ! Holidays ..I used the new on board itty bitty book 3x3 refill pages and also the tag punch ..( I used the tag punch to make little gift tags like a mini books . I folded my whisper white CS in half and then just line up your punch so that the outside punch line is not punching through any cs ) I used sticky strip adhesive to apply the page protector onto the card stock .. measurements for base I believe are 3 1/2 X 5 for the cardstock scoring at 3 1/4 and again at 3 1/2 to make a edge to punch one hole on the inside of lid to attach ribbon handle with a slip knot sets used were snow flurries, perfect endings, tiny talk and little pieces velcro was used for the closure.
Today is the last day of rest
( so to speak ) tommorrow is the BIG day we start tearing daughters room apart .. so this will be our main focus the next 3 days and nights ..
Here is a photo of the loft bed pieces primed and ready for paint .. Hubby used the paint gun and was really great ! fixed up the garage as a mini paint station and have all the piece (44) of them hanging from the rafters with string and screws .. Hubby is pretty amazing .. We both are so glad we started this project last week since he had to actually build the bed and put together then take it apart and sand all the pieces and prime each piece and now tonight he will be painting it ..Then Thats where I come into the picture Daughter wants polka dots all over it .. Not sure if we will do this before she sees it OR after to make sure she actually wants Polka dots .My Biggest job will be tommorrow with my mom we will be clearing out her room and closet HUMM wonder where all her dressers and things are going to go .. probably in my living room good thing its only for 2 1/2 days I think the funnest thing about this project is that Jessie has NO idea whats about to happen .. I really hate secerts But this one seems to be the best one by far ..
Yesterday I also recieved my favorite bag ..
YAHOO I got this bag from my friend Shana she sold it for the right price and I love it . so excited to use this baby at regionals to hold lots of my goodies Its small but packs a BIG punch they sell these bags here also JoAnn.com
Until Later .. Happy Stampin
