My New Wax Melter and Wax

I wanted to share with you my latest obsession, WAX, lol. I got my first wax melter a year ago and didn't use it very much.  But I moved the melter from my craft desk a few months ago to my computer desk and have been  using it everyday since.  I love most of the scents but I live in a house of men and they are not thrilled with it.  Little do they know that I bought them melters for their rooms for Christmas.  Plus my husband has a problem with too spicey scents.  So I just have to pick carefully.  If I buy one that is too strong I add some Vanilla to it to tone it down.  I have even started making some of my own tarts.  It is really not very hard and does not take much time.  It's a lot of fun learning new crafts.

Project Life Week 40 - 43

I wanted to share my latest Project Life pages.  I am playing catch-up, so I decided to print out all my pics and place them in my book in the proper order.  Then I worked from the back to the front (because it was all fresh in my head) and get my pages done.  I was able to finish these four week in a weekend.  I have been having a ball finishing all these pages.  So now off to work on more pages.

2013 Easy Christmas #4

This is my card #4 in my mini series for my "2013 Easy Christmas Cards".  This card can be used as a regular greeting card or it can be easily made into a money or gift card.  This is a small regular A2 size card, using your base card of 5 1/2 X 8 1/2, scored and folded at 4 1/4.  The outside of the card is very easy to make using a piece of paper the is 4 1/4 X 5 1/2, two pieces of ribbon, a bow and a small scrap of paper to make a tag.

Outside:

The inside is a piece of paper that is 2 1/2 X 5 1/2.  I used a 1" circle punch to cut the notch out of the top of this piece.  Use wet glue to attach this section to the inside of the card.

Inside:



I hope that you enjoy this card and find it useful.
