Kitchen Magnets in a Box

Happy Saturday, everyone !!!! My oldest daughter is always bugging me for kitchen magnets, because they don't only hold important (and not so important) notes and papers, but they are also toys for my grandson. He can spend lots of time playing with the magnets on the refrigerator.
So, for my project today I will show you the magnets I made and the box I made for storing them. My daughter is going to be one happy camper ! :)

Recipe:

Imagine cartridges: Yummy- cupcake, birthday cake, icecream cone, box
                                 Better Together - sun, cup, bread and butter
Cardstock: American Crafts
Stickles
Sakura Gelly Pens
Ink jet photo magnet sheets (TransferMagic.com). I got these at Joanns.

Hurry Back Home Card

No matter where we are, at work, vacation, college, or shopping we always want to go back to that one special place where we feel the most comfortable and where we can be ourselves: HOME !!!! I think of my two children who are in the Military, and how they dream of being home... also, my daughter Diana who is away at college, cannot wait for the weekends to be home. Even one of my sons, who travels every day to a nearby town to go to college, expresses a sigh of relief when he finally gets home at night. Everyone wants to get away and come back to the warmth of the place we call home.

My project today has a simple home, with the clothes drying on a clothes line and a tree with flowers and birds chirping; behind is the big building skyline.

RECIPE:

Cartridges: Better Together
Cuttlebug embossing folders
Copic Markers
Stickles: orange, fruit punch
Crystal Effect Stampin Up

• Cuts I made for the front of the card

• Parts for the inside of the card

• Put together the front of the card
• to create the skyline, cut different heights of the houses and run through the Cuttlebug
• Add Stickles to the flowers and Crystal Effects on the birds
• With Copics, draw the grass over the blue background.
• run a piece of Kraft colored cardstock through the Cuttlebug and use it as a base for the focal point. Place it over a white card (finished size is 7x5)



• Inside of the card

....And here is your favorite chair, waiting for you to come home :)

Removable Glass Decorations Made With Ultra Cling Vinyl.

Hello again !!! Well, it seems like things have gone back to normal after all the wonderful Holiday craziness. To keep the house fresh and happy I always do "seasonal decorating". By that I mean adding details around the house that remind us of the season/Holiday we are in. I specially decorate with accessories in the kitchen, bathrooms and always, a wreath on the door.
I discovered that using ultra cling vinyl, it is possible to decorate many glass  items and that this decorations can be removed and even saved for next year or be given away to my daughters for them to use (just make sure to keep the paper backing). Isn't this wonderful ??? Buy as many plain glass decorative items as you want and change their look completely depending on the season or Holiday !!!!
 For this project I decorated two jars, one to put in the coffee and one for the sugar. And of course, I decorated them with Valentine's Day theme !!! :)
**** Hola otra vez, luego de la locura Navide~na. Siempre me gusta mantener la decoracion de la casa al dia, a~nadiendo deltalles de la temporada a la decoracionn de la cocina, ba~nos y una corona en la puerta.
Descubri que con el vinil "Ultra Cling" (que no contiene pega, solo la estatica lo hace pegarse al cristal), puedo cambiar la decoracion de articulos de cristal y darles a estos un "look" completamente distinto cada temporada. Se pueden guardar y ser reciclados el proximo a~no. Para este proyecto decore envases de cristal para el cafe y la azucar y obviamente, con tema de san Valentin. :)

RECIPE:
***Receta:

• Papilio Inkjet White Ultra Cling Vinyl
• Cricut Imagine cartridges (cartuchos):
• Yummy for the cup of coffee (*para la taza)
• Better Together all other images (*para todas las demas imagenes)
• Two glass jars (make sure they are clean and dry) (*dos envases de cristal, limpios y secos)

Let's do it :
Hagamoslo:

• Print and cut images (*Imprima y corte)
• Set machine to pressure 3, blade depth 5 
• On your settings button, select gloss paper, and customize the border to 0.00

• Cut, print and remove the top film of Ultra Cling vinyl (*Corte, imprima y remueva con cuidado la capa superior de Ultra Cling Vinyl)

• Adhere all the images to the jars. Since this material does not have adhesive it is very easy to lift and move around. You will be surprised at how strong it will adhere to glass. (*Pegue a los cristales todas las imagenes. Al no tener pega, puede levantar por una esquina y moverlos de lugar. El enlace que hace con el cristal es fuerte)
