Chapped Lips?

It's nice and warm where I am (come on down!) but dry air, frigid weather and the inevitable chapped lips are still plaguing much of the country.

I've got a quick and easy post on the May Arts blog for keeping your chapstick close at hand.  These would be great for the kids backpacks as well.

Thanks for popping and be sure to head over the MA blog for more pictures and a link to the tutorial.

May Arts/Stampendous Blog Week & 3 Giveaways

It's my turn to share the fun using beautiful May Arts Ribbon and Stampendous products.

I decided to make a giant tag that can double as a card.  This was so fun to do.  I simply covered both sides of an extra large shipping tag with designer paper then added ribbon and that adorable Stampendous House Mouse image called Big Yawn.

This is a great project for small pieces of leftover ribbon.  :-)  There is space on the back for a message and I think that this can be used as a decorative piece in a child's room as well.

Here's the supply list:

May Arts Ribbon - QK4-47 Sheer Daisy Edge, NE17 5/8" Sheer Nylon Edge, XA17-1.5" Pom-Pom Edged Wired Ribbon, HA17 - 3/8" Double Sided Satin

Stampendous Products - Big Yawn, Frantage Encrusted Jewel Kit, Kraftboard Angel Wings Kit

Other: - Scor-Tape; Spellbinders Heart die; Designer paper - Heidi Grace Daydream; foam squares; XL Tag; Papertrey Ink cardstock; Ink - Amuse; Copic markers
