My Craft Spot Stamp Release Day 2!!

Welcome to the My Craft Spot Stamp Release party!! I'm so excited to be guest designing again for this release!! Each day this week we will be sharing projects to showcase five new stamp sets and several new SVG files!! Kimberly will have a giveaway every day this week, so be sure to leave a comment at My Craft Spot to be eligible for the daily prize. You'll also be treated to some amazing inspiration from the design team!! The party will end with a blog hop celebration on Saturday, where the full release is revealed and prizes will be given at each stop. Kimberly's new stamps and SVG files will also be available for purchase beginning that day :)

Today we are featuring the new O Holy Night stamp set and it is fabulous!! Throughout the week the design team will also be incorporating the new SVG files into their projects as well. (Unfortunately I won't until I get a cutting machine :)

For my project, I created a birdhouse shaker ornament :) I didn't write down the measurements as I made this...it was a lot of trial and error. So if anyone is interested, I can do a tutorial. The flowers are from Wild Orchid Crafts and the flourishes are from Cheery Lynn.

The hole and frame were created with My Craft Spot Tiny Doily Dies. MCS Snow Flurries Sequins and some glitter was used for the shaker. The sentiment is from O Holy Night and it was stamped on a MCS Tiny Doily Die.

MSC Twine was used to string the ornament.

Decorate to Celebrate #31 - Any Party Theme!!

Happy Wednesday!! It's time for another super-fun challenge at Decorate to Celebrate!! For Challenge #31, we are asking you to create any project to be used as a party decoration for an ANY PARTY THEME!! Let's celebrate everything wonderful about whatever you are celebrating today with your table decorations, party banners, pennants, yard signs, cupcakes, party favors and more!! :)

For my party celebration today, I chose a House Warming Party, so I created this decorative birdhouse.

Everything was cut in cardboard first and the Brenda Walton K&Company papers were adhered with Mod Podge. The shape is a Spellbinders Grand Labels 4. For the center piece, I measured the length and then scored it at 1/2" on either side to hot glue it to the front and back pieces. The shingles are Spellbinders Banner Basics 3 dies.

The decorative trim along the roof line is a Spellbinders Fleur de Lis Doily Accents die. The hole was cut with a Spellbinders Standard Circles die, and then a Spellbinders Fancy Labels Three die was used to decorates the hole.

The banner is a Spellbinders Mix'd Media Elements die, inked with New Sprout Memento Ink. "Home" is from K Andrew Designs All About Family stamp set:
