Blog Update
It's been awhile since my last blog. I've been busy these past couple days needless to say. But good things are brewing in the Ittybit Delights craft shop...I promise. I'm currently working on my next blog giveaway and let's say I can't wait to get it posted! It's geared towards Valentine's day. It should be done by this week so I can get it posted by Saturday. I'm also working on some more exciting OOAK (one of a kind) jewelry pieces as well as adding some new handcrafted items to my shop that are non-jewelry related. So stay tuned for all the fun and exciting things to come.
Happy Crafting,
Ittybit
'41 Willies Handcrafted Gingerbread Cookie - From Ittybit's Kitchen
This is a handcrafted '41 Willies Coupe that my husband and I designed for my father-in-law during Christmas time. My husband designed a cookie cutter in the shape of a Willies for me. It measures 10" in length and 3 1/2" in height. It's all gingerbread and we decorated it using thinned downed royal icing in shades of blue, black and gray. My father-in-law (and mother-in-law) absolutely loved. It took him a few days before he would indulge in his cookie. How funny!

Handcrafted Christmas Tree Cards
I had fun creating these cards on my own.
I used the following supplies:
Silver scrap booking paper
Light purple scrap booking paper (not shown)
Purple swirly decorative scrap booking paper
Gray felt
White pom poms
Glue (Elmer's and a glue stick)
Silver paint (not shown)
Plaid Mini Pop Dots (peel and stick type)
When I purchased the purple swirly paper I noticed it was a bit flimsy. So I decided to get some light purple paper which has the same thickness as card stock and used a glue stick to adhere each piece together. Now I had the thickness I needed. Next I made a triangular template for both the small and large Christmas Trees. I then traced a bunch of small and large trees onto the back of the light purple paper that I had just glued (using the glue stick not the Elmer's) to the swirly purple paper. Then cut all those out. Once I had a field of trees I set those to the side and started to cut the silver scrap booking paper to the sizes that I would need to accommodate for each large and small tree. Once my cards were done I set those to the side and then started to cut out little gray felt rectangles for each tree. Once I had my gray rectangles felt shapes done I put those to the side and then started to work on my pom poms with the silver paint. I pretty much did the same thing that I did for the wreaths project. I squeezed some silver paint into a plastic cup and rolled the white pom poms in them with my fingers until they were all coated. I let the pom poms dry overnight. Now I'm ready to assemble. I started out by gluing (with Elmer's) each gray felt piece first. Once I had all the gray felt rectangles glued I then started on my tress. I wanted to glue my gray pieces first so this would give me a better idea on where to position the tree. I placed three mini pop dots (the peel and stick type) on each corner of the trees then positioned it onto the card. I set all these to the side and the next day I used some glue (Elmer's) to attach the painted pom poms. Viola! Cards are finished.
These didn't take me long at all to do. Plus they are OOAK (one of a kind) and each person that received one really enjoyed it!
Happy Crafting,
Ittybit
Until my next blog...
