Christmas Gift Swap 2012

Did I say that I don't sew?  Well...  I got out the sewing machine.  And I actually sewed something.  And now I'm addicted.  Ugh.  

I came across a tutorial for these Tissue Holders and I thought they looked easy enough.  So I made a 'few'.  Those 'few' turned into 22.  And I want to make more.  Crazy, I know.  But they are 'SEW' easy!  (ha ha)

 

I embellished them by using a 'yo-yo' and some retired Cherry Cobbler ribbon.  To make the 'yo-yo', I cut a circle using the Circles #2 die (the 2-1/2" circle).  I folded in the edges of the circle and hand sewed a loose stitch around the edges.  Then I pulled it tight and secured it to the Tissue Holder along with the ribbon.  Easy Peasy!


Since they were fairly easy to make, I had lots of fabric and they are light enough to ship, these are my SUFriendsForever Christmas Gift swap for this year.  I hope the ladies enjoy these!
These would also make great teachers gifts! 

This fabric is currently available on the Clearance Rack for only $0.99!! While supplies last!


Accessories: Big Shot, Designer Fabric (Deck the Halls), Circles #2 Die, Cherry Cobbler Ribbon (Retired)

Fabric Flower Embellishment

Another No-Sew Project!  Love it!  This idea came from Stampin' Success - the Demonstrator only magazine that we get every other month filled with great ideas.  A quick, easy way to decorate one of our Kraft Gift Boxes (4 for only $2.95!). 


Since I used the Vintage Faceted Designer Buttons - which are clear- I punched out and added a small circle of Cherry Cobbler cardstock to add some color under the button.

This fabric is currently available on the Clearance Rack for only $0.99!! While supplies last!

Fabric Scissors Holder

Let me start this by saying I DON'T SEW.   This Fabric Scissors Holder is a perfect project for me because you can do it without any sewing at all.  I originally saw this idea at Convention 2012 and just knew I had to make one.  So, we made these at my November Stamp Club.  The idea, along with a great video, can be found here on Laura Milligan's blog.  She presented both a no-sew version and a version that can you can sew if you choose.  The great thing is that they fit Stampin' Up!s paper snips perfectly!

 

And, even better, the fabric can currently be purchased on the Clearance Rack for only $0.99!! While supplies last!
