Recycle with me #16 Dollar Tree Summer Tags

Hello there, today I've got 3 card to share with you today. They are part of my Recycle with me series over on my YouTube channel.  For Today's cards I recycled product tags from some Dollar Tree items I bought over the summer.

For the first card I used a super cute Toucan tag from a decor sign I bought from Dollar tree to decorate for summer.  To make the card I used a white card stock for the base.  I added some blue twine to the tag in a loop.  I used some thin blue washi tape from Dollar tree and added into a boarder around my sentiment.   For the sentiment I used a wood mounted stamp from Micheal's that says "Toucan have my heart".  I stamped it in My Favorite Things after midnight hybrid ink.   At this point I also cut out some hearts from some left over Valentine's day cards to add to my card.  A bonus recycled material.   After stamping the sentiment and the toucan from the stamp I used my spectrum noir markers to add a bit of color to the bird. I used CT4, DR3 and TB3. I also used a black pen to make the words stand out a bit more.   To adhere everything together I used the Scotch Advanced tape glider. Lastly I added some midnight blue nuvo drops to finish off the card.







For the 2nd card I used these recycled product tag from a Dollar Tree decor sign that has the sun on it.  I first added some yellow twine to the tag and added a loop in the hole on the tag.  For the sentiment and to cover up the words on the tag I grabbed some black card stock.  I used a sentiment from a Micheal's wooden stamp that says "You're Spec-tacular" and it also has the sunglasses on that stamp.  To stamp it I used Simon Say Stamp clear embossing ink and then Simon Says Stamp white embossing powder.  Then I cut out the sentiment and sunglasses.  For the card base I used Fossilized Amber distress oxide ink with the Dollarama make up brush and blended the color over the card stock to create my background.   Then I was ready to adhere everything together to do that I used the scotch advanced tape glider.  To finish off the card I added a some English Mustard nuvo drops around the tag.  Lastly I used the Xyron sticker maker to carefully pop the sunglasses into the inside of the card.



For the 3rd card I used 4 product tags from some Dinosaur toys I picked up for my 2 year old who loves Dinosaurs.  This was a super simple card. To adhere the tags to the card base I used the Scotch Advanced Tape Glider.  I grabbed some scraps from black card stock and cut some stripes down to adhere over the french words of the tag and add my own sentiment in.  I adhered the black stripes with the Advanced tape glider and then used a white Sakura gelly roll pen and wrote "Happy Birthday" on the black paper.



Thank you so much for stopping by today. I hope your summer is going great!

Get Kids Crafty May Blog Hop Gardening theme

It's that time of month again where I share a fun crafty project that I made with my kiddo Riley for Get Kids Crafty. Hello and thank you for joining us for the May Get Kids Crafty! blog hop! We are thrilled to have you! Our theme this month is gardening and our kids have created some AMAZING projects to share with you! We had a lot of fun creating our project this month. We made a bumble bee mobile.  Both my kids love the song bringing home my baby bumble bee. Especially my youngest Liam, it seems to usually calm him down when he's upset.  So we created this fun project to the theme of the song.      First we had to die cut our bees, Here is Riley playing with an already cut bee in the Big Shot machine.      Here is Riley turning the handle on the Big Shot machine to cut out all our bees. We had to do 16 in total one for the front and back as you will see in a little bit. Here is what the finished bee looks like and the die cut that we used from
