Cat show update: Today I'm off to the cat show. Maybe I should leave the cat home, huh? :-) I have sprayed her carrier with "Herbal Calming Spray" (I'm thinking of spraying her, too) and I'm seriously considering drugging her (or me) with a tiny bit of leftover Prozac. (Daughter says this is improper use of drugs and constitutes DOPING, but I say that desperate times call for desperate measures!)
Look for an update tomorrow, or later today if we are asked to leave the show early! Thanks for all the well-wishes!

I've been busy this week making projects for a holiday open house. I hope that some of these ideas inspire crafters to make handmade gifts this holiday season!
I created a few samples of decorated tins. These 3x3 tins have clear lids which make them perfect to use as candy tins or even little gift boxes. The really neat thing is that they can be decorated using a very small amount of product...making them perfect for using up your scraps. If you started with a full sheet of paper, you could decorate a LOT of tins!
On this tin, I used a bit of Basic Grey's Figgy Pudding line...not a new line, but it's still one of my favorites. For the lid, I cut out three poinsettias of different dimensions and layered them with foam dots. I added a bit of loopy ribbon and Stickles around the edge of the lid.Look for an update tomorrow, or later today if we are asked to leave the show early! Thanks for all the well-wishes!

On this tin, I used a bit of Bo Bunny snowflake paper and a few snowflake rub-ons from Me and My Big Ideas. This tin took no time at all to make!
Hm, hope everyone (and every cat) survived the show, if not passed through with flying colors:) And unfortunately, Prozac has a VERY long half-life, and very slow onset, so wouldn't be a good doping med anyway;)
