If you came from Tracey Caudle's blog, you are in the right place, if you came here by chance, feel free to start from the beginning HERE.  You can visit the Damask Divas blog to see the complete list of participants.  

I wanted to use this paper and my Artbooking cartridge to scrapbook some photos of my little man.





I used a flip flap style design to add multiple pictures to one page and I added a hidden journaling spot that would also hold the flaps together.

I also made a candy jar a little while back using this paper too, you can check it out HERE.

You have reached the end of our hop!  We hope you had a great time looking at all of the great projects.  I hope you find some inspiration to create fun crafts of your own!  If you get lost, you can find your place on the Damask Divas blog.  Thank you for stopping by!

Tooth Fairy Door Hanger

Well, it is finally happening, my little girl is growing up!  And way too fast if you ask me :(.  She is starting school this year and she has not one, but two loose teeth!  One is almost ready to come out so I had to race to get this little project finished.  I was inspired by a fellow consultant, Damask Diva, and very talented lady - Amie Kiger.

I made this Tooth Fairy Door Hanger with the Chantilly paper pack and glitter paper.



The stamp set that I used is one of the Hostess Rewards stamp sets called - The Party Is On.  This cute stamp set can only be purchased using hostess credits that you would earn by hosting a gathering.  There are many more to choose from too.  So why not host a gathering??  Don't have time?  You can host it all online!


The small My Creations Paper Pouches (NLA) are great for adding a message and money or another small gift from the tooth fairy.  Since these paper pouches are not available anymore, these really cute burlap or muslin drawstring bags would work perfectly too!



Both of these bags are inexpensive, easy to stamp, sew on, or embellish with items like buttons, gems, glitter glitz, brads, etc.  There are so many great ways to personalize this project, you won't want to make just one!  Get started today, create a fun craft of your own!

Damask Divas Blog Hop - Sarita

Hello and Welcome to the August blog hop presented to you by the Damask Divas team!  We are featuring the new paper pack available TODAY called Sarita.

Now, I would like to share with you my project using these items!


I purchased this glass jar from my local craft store so I could dress it up as a candy jar for my craft area.  The Stamp of the Month for August is all about chocolate - A Chocolate Affair.  This was perfect for my candy jar project and because I love candy, chocolate, and chocolate candy :)


I used Liquid Glass to add some shine

 Then I used Outdoor Denim Chevron Ribbon to finish it off.



Surprisingly enough, I found time to make a second project.  This is a box that I bought from Cricut.com and made it similar to the jar.  Both of these are a great gift idea for food, candy, or other small items.



The flower that I made was developed by another Damask Diva - Cathy Derouche.
