~HAPPY HALLOWEEN~

Today, I am happy to share some wonderful Fall Colors with you

as we CREEP into the Days before Halloween.

Fall is my favorite time of year. 

There is so much to Celebrate!

Speaking of CELEBRATING . . . there is still time to join the Current Challenge 

here at the 3 Girl JAM Challenge Blog!

 (LINK UP BELOW)

I enjoy the Crisp Cool Air, but love Nature's Color Palette 

that starts showing up in early October.

I am excited for the little ones to enjoy their Trick-or-Treat escapade,

and decided a cute Treat Bag and Card was what I would make for my project today.

The Muslin Bags are one  of my favorite items to use from the 

3 Girl JAM Store.

I used the 5x7 size bag for my Fright Night Sweets.

For my card, I used my new Mister Huey sprays and mask to create the background.

The fence was cut from black card stock using my Memory Box "Rounded Fence" die.

The pattern paper is from the Bo Bunny Apple Cider 6x6 stack.

I adorned the fence with Crinkle Ribbon Mini Bows created using the 3 Girl JAM Bow Maker.

Bows: Harvest Orange, Goblin Green, Sunflower Yellow, and Hot Chocolate

The Spooky Tree and label on my treat bag were stamped from the Echo Park and Unity Stamp Co. set called "fright night".

Hope you will JOIN US and share all of your WONDERFUL CELEBRATION CREATIONS!

3GJ Challenge No.24 Back To School With Ribbon-Teacher Treat Box

Hi Friends! Abby here with ScrappinAbby and I'm really excited to share my project for 3GJ's Challenge No.24 Back To School With Ribbon!!

For this project I used five..yup that's right...five different yummy Crinkle Ribbons from 3GJ. I created a treat box from a sheet of card stock for my daughter to give to her principal. Since this is Kaley's last year in middle school, I wanted to make something that she could give to her since she's not only an amazing principal who took care of my baby girl for 3 years, but also a family friend.

I also have a short video that shows you the completed project up close : )

For this project I used the following 3GJ Crinkle Ribbons:

Tuxedo 

Sunflower 

Holly Berry 

Merlot 

Goblin Green 

I thought it would be fun to cover the wooden knob I used with some Holly Berry crinkle ribbon. 

You can see more of the same crinkle ribbon peeking out from under the lid of the box. I used some clear card stock to create the window so you can see the paper apple I made which can be removed and filled with some wrapped candy as well : )

 Each side of the box has a different image from the G45 Place In Time collection...

I used some of the Goblin Green on my dictionary page apple to mimic a leaf...

This was such a fun and easy Back To School project to create that featured a wide variety of the yummy 3GJ Crinkle Ribbons. I love how the five different ribbons, each from a different bundle, really work so well together. It's always fun to mix up the bundles a bit and see what you come up with. 

I hope I was able to inspire you to participate in Challenge No.24 and show us your amazing project using the FAB Crinkle Ribbons from 3 Girl JAM.

Thanks for stopping by the 3GJ Challenge Blog and happy crafting!!

Kraft with Ribbon CHALLENGE ~ "Teacher's RULE"

Hey there Crafty Blends and 3 Girl JAM-ers

DT Member Jessica B from Jessica's Craft Shaque here and today, I am posting a Back to School Card for a Teacher!

The current challenge is:

Kraft w/Ribbon

That's right we want to see ALL those awesome projects using Kraft card stock and ribbon!!!!

(pssst....play along to win an awesome prize from 3 Girl JAM)

I used a Kraft Envelope and some Kraft Card Stock.
I recently grabbed up some fun bargains at "My Favorite Stamp Company" and couldn't wait to get inky with these sweet set.

I love using my 3 Girl JAM Crinkle Ribbon as a closure on my altered journals and this influenced my decision to use it here...

I am a huge fan of Paper Piecing and wanted to try some of my very neglected paper stacks.
I decided to use Greens and Golds/Yellows from my stash of 3 Girl JAM Crinkle Ribbon since those are our School Colors here in Amherst, OH.

I won't bore you with too many details, but if you have any questions, please feel free to hop over to my Personal Blog and say Hi!  This took lots and lots of fussy cutting, a little bit of Zig Glue, and some TH Distress Inks to finish it.  

I am happy that it turned out as I envisioned it.

I just hope my sweet daughter's Kindergarten Teacher loves it on their First Day of School next week, too.

And, would it be a post from me if you didn't see Mini Bows and Pleating on my project, right???
LOL
I used the 3 Girl JAM Bow Maker 
to make the bow on the card and the fun bow in the Teacher's Hair

Stop by 3 Girl JAM to place an order for this Beautiful Ribbon - You won't be sorry to have it in your Hands as you Create!

YOUR FUN

BIRTHDAY PROJECTS with RIBBON!

WHOOP!!!

I haven't been feeling quite up to par, but today, when my new Unity Stamp Company HAPPY MAIL arrived, it gave me a SPARK OF CREATIVITY!
I gathered all of my 3 Girl JAM Crinkle Ribbon  and picked out some FUN and VIBRANT colors to work with.
I knew I wanted to make a Girl Birthday card since my Step Daughter will be turning 10 in just a few short weeks.  

I used the following colors on my card:
Witches Brew from the Spooky Bundle
Ice Blue from the Winter Bundle
and
Sunflower Yellow from the Harvest Bundle

The Miniature Bows along the bottom of my card were made with the help of the infamous
3 Girl JAM Bow Maker

and as an added bonus . . .
All of my papers were from my SCRAPS Pile---Whoop!!

I have been so eager to create a corner fold and have a cute little sentiment peeking out from behind...and I think this gave my card the extra little hint of Birthday Magic!

Thanks EVER SO MUCH for visiting today

lovely Blends and 3 Girl JAMmers.

We hope you will JOIN THE FUN
here at the 3 Girl JAM Challenge Blog
and we can't wait to see
all of your fantastic Birthday Creations with Ribbon!
