My Life in Arts and Crafts Design Team Blog Hop

Welcome to the first ever My Life in Arts n’ Crafts design team blog hop.

I’m pleased to announce that I am on the design team for My Life in Arts n’ Crafts and this is one talented team who have lots of creative things to show you. During this introduction hop we have a special guest designer: Melissa from Blissfully Chaotic. How much fun is that!


There are some amazing products in the My Life in Arts and Crafts Store. The store carries some of your favorite items such as colored twine but there are new things to make your craft ideas pop like colored jute which was the focus of yesterday's design team so if you didn't get a chance to hop yesterday please take the time to do so today.

Today we are focusing on fabulous colored twine. Twine is such a versatile accent to a card or layout because it comes in so many beautiful colors and the My Life in Arts and Crafts Store carries any color you can think of and some you probably haven't.

I made this fun birthday card using three of the many colors of twine. I used colors: orchard (light purple), pea pod green, pink sorbet.

Check out the other great craft ideas in this hop and then head on over to My Life in Arts and Crafts to see all the marvelous colors of jute and twine.

Make sure to leave a comment on each blog because our hostess and owner of My Life in Arts and Crafts,  Jessi, is giving away some products from her store.

Thank you for stopping by and now please hop on over to Lissa Marie's blog.

My Life in Arts and Crafts Design Team Hop

Welcome to the first ever My Life in Arts n’ Crafts design team blog hop.

I’m pleased to announce that I am on the design team for My Life in Arts n’ Crafts and this is one talented team who have lots of creative things to show you. During this introduction hop we have two special guest designers: Tanner from Tanner Bell Designs and Melissa from Blissfully Chaotic. How much fun is that!


There are some amazing products in the My Life in Arts and Crafts Store. The store carries some of your favorite items such as colored twine but there are new things to make your craft ideas pop and I'm sure once you try these products they also will become your new favorite things.

This is a two day hop so make sure you come back tomorrow. Today we are focusing on fabulous colored Jute twine. Jute comes in all the colors of the rainbow and works on projects that range from fancy to fanciful.
It comes in 9 fabulous colors: Pink, Purple, Navy, Ivory, Natural, Green, Olive, Black, and Red.

I am using the green on my project.

The bottom card shows the truer colors of the card but the top one shows the green jute better. It was so easy to make. I used double sided ribbon tape and ran it across the embossed part of the card. I then ran the jute back and forth cutting each end. It was easy and is so beautiful looking on this card. It gives the card a vintage feel to me.

Check out the other great craft ideas in this hop and then head on over to My Life in Arts and Crafts to see all the marvelous colors of jute and other products available.

Lollipop digital stamp winner

Congratulations to Chriss America Real who won my monkey pop from the lollipop and sweets blog hop. 

Anything Stitched

Sew - A needle pulling thread; unless of course you're a crafter. That's when sewing becomes more than a needle pulling thread. It becomes whatever your mind can conceive and to show this, I have a great bunch of ladies with projects that show their INDIVIDUAL take on what "Anything Stitched" means.

I hope you will hop along with us today to see what these carfters have stitched up to show off. Your hostess, me, Jearise in Lorby's World is the beginning so please start here. I have a wonderful little gift for one lucky winner and all you have to do is hop through and leave a note on my blog and become a follower if you're not one already.

I am giving away DCWV The Summers Days Stitched Stack. Every pages has something stitched on it. Cool!

Now for my project...

 I hand stitched around the heart using grey twine from The Twinery.

Heart digi I designed
Grey twine from The Twinery
Stickle's Cotton Candy and used between the twine
Anna Griffin's Carmen Collection boarder stickers behind the heart
Glossy Accents for the cross stitched work LOVE

Thank you SEW much for hopping by today and please continue on to Lucy's Blog..

Lollipop Blog Hop

Lollipop Lollipop Oh Lolli, Lolli, Lolli Lollipop! Even if you don't remember or know this song you will have to admit that there is nothing that brings a smile to a child's face like a lollipop. Do you have a favorite kind or do you like the really sweet multi-colored ones?

This hop is for you and your love of lollipops. Our creative crafters have been at it again creating all sorts of yummy creations for this hop. Our hostess, Me - Jearise in Lorby's World,  will have a sweet treat for you just for becoming a new follower or letting me know you already are one and leaving a comment.

One lucky winner will win my monkey pop digital file. I ask all others to not copy or use him without permission or to re-sell him.

 Now for my projects....

 The lollipop girl digital stamp comes from Crudoodle and I used my promarkers to color her. I haven't stamped a sentiment yet because my stamps are still packed away.

The ribbon came from My Life In Arts n' Crafts. I added glitter to the dress and the back of the card but you can't see it. Darn!

The lollipop on this card came from Broken Box Stock as a freebie. The twine came from The Twinery. I used my Cuddlebug to emboss the background. The embossing design is from the Mini Monsters set and even though it's suppose to be for Halloween, I think it works perfect for this.

I got carried away on the glitter. Oh who's kidding, you can never get carried away with glitter.

My last project was a bookmark. I made the lollipop using twine from The Twinery. I'll show how to make it at a later date when I have my new craft room set up and am able to do video.

Thank you for hopping by today continue on to sample some SWEET projects. Your nest stop is Jessi.
