31 Days of Crafting - Day Five - Light Up Grinch Block

Christmas in February!  This was such a fun project I made recently with my mom and my aunt.  We had a full on Christmas event the day we made these.  We crafted, had dinner and dessert and watched Christmas movies.  The holiday season is always so busy and it's really fun to continue celebrating afterwards.

Here's a picture of all of our blocks.  I'm gonna make another one soon for my boyfriend.

I love sharing all kinds of crafts in the month of March.  I think all art matters!!  (Now I'm hearing One Tree Hill in my head!)

Happy National Scrapbooking Month!!!

Happy National Scrapbook Month everyone!!  I am NOT a big scrapbooker, but I do love the idea of papercrafting that's not just cards!!  I use all the scrapbooking supplies to make my cards, and I want to share some of those projects this month.

Today's is a home decor piece that's really a gift--it's a lottery ticket holder!

I don't have any photos of it with tickets clipped on, but it's actually made of hundreds of hearts in four different colors.

Forever Is Only The Beginning

Three years ago today, The Twilight Saga ended when Breaking Dawn Part Two opened in theaters.  Those of us that are true Twihards know that it never really ends, but I still wanna celebrate the final movie in the Saga.

Awhile ago I saw a project on Pinterest to make a shadowbox to hold your ticket stubs.  I have years and years and years worth, but somehow I couldn't find them, so most of the films I put inside are from the past year or so.  One of these days I'll find the rest and this thing will be busting.

I of course wanted it to have a Twilight theme, cause why not?

No matter how many photos I took, I still got a reflection of the camera in the glass!!!

Notice the all-important stubs I glued in place:

Anyone else LOVE this movie??  Alex Pettyfer* is sooooooo yummy!!

And the SUPER IMPORTANT Fifty Shades* stub!  IDK where the ones went from my first viewing, and before you ask, no I didn't put my Twilight stubs in here they're in my Twilight book!

*I STILL maintain--as much as I LOVED Fifty Shades--that Alex Pettyfer would've made SUCH a good Christian!  There's something about the idea of him wielding a whip that seems so......fitting.
