Clearly Stated

Just like any sign, you need to clearly state what you you are thinking...

And the stream-lined, sign-looking people in the "Home Sweet Home" set can 

help you get your message across.

Here, I used "Teal You Want" embossing powder 

and pieced the dress on this fashionable stick figure!

Thanks for checking out the Gel-a-tins Blog today!

Sending Messages

What sort of message do you send in your paper crafting projects?

I was inspired by the motif of this patterned paper with the word bubbles.

After cutting out this word bubble, the graphic couple from Home Sweet Home were donned in new clothes!  Another sweet, modern couple!

Stamp sets used:

SWAK, Home Sweet Home

Modern Love Birds

Just two love birds...

And that's what you get when you pair the images and embossing powder of Gel-a-tins

with the papers and dew drops of the Robin's Nest.

Oh yeah...and a touch of Rumple Ribbon from Lovebug Creations!

Inside too!

Are you ready for the weekend?

Maybe you have some fun and crafting planned and maybe you'll just be trying to keep your kids (or spouse) away from all the Halloween candy.  We're having a Halloween party at my house and I can't wait!  I've been working on cards and decor this month and it's going to be a blast!  Of course, I have been using my gel-a-tins a lot this month, and I'm sure that today's projects will make you want to get crafty too!

Ellen made this cute card with the Home Sweet Home set!

"I love love this Home Sweet Home set for cards, too! Everyone has friends that move so having one of these in your card stash is a must!"

Supplies:
Patterned Paper: Pink Paislee
Carstock: Core'dinations

Cassie altered a small gift box with the Chocolate Bliss set.  I love this set and it's so fab on this little box!

"I found some small old boxes the other day, and I thought 'these need a makeover'! I covered them in patterned paper, and decorated it with some ribbon to make it look like a gift box. "
