Happy New Year from Imaginisce

Is there anything more fun that wearing a party hat? Yes...creating them. I loved creating these sweet Happy New Year party hats with beautiful Imaginisce papers/diecuts/stickers and patterns from Snazzie Drawers.


For this hat, I used the Imaginisce Bon Voyage collection. The bold navy, burgundy, and cream stripes worked so well with the vintage pattern paper accents. The number stickers are American Crafts Thickers.


This little pink number, was created with the Imaginisce Hippity Hop collection. I accented with pink crate paper, a white paper doily, and gold glitter glue.


I even talked my step-daughter into modeling. These would be perfect for party hats or table decorations. They could be created for any occasion.



Hop over to Imaginisce to see the entire Bon Voyage and Hippity Hop collections and to SnazzieDrawers to check out their wonderful collection of patterns.

Home for the Holidays with Ruby Rock-It



Today on the Ruby Rock-It blog, we are sharing our favorite holiday traditions. I just love the holidays! One of my favorite traditions is collecting Santa Claus figures. I just love his sweet little face and seeing him makes me feel like a little girl again. I have well over 50 Santa Claus figures.

This is one of my favorite Santa's that I purchased 10 years ago. He stands over 2ft tall and has advent pockets in his coat. My children are so excited to unpack him each year.


I love traditional Santa's, as well as modern one's with bright colors and glitter. This wooden Santa is so beautiful with his carved Winter scene.

Each December, my husband suprises me with a new Santa for my birthday. This is the Santa I received last week. I just love that Santa is carving a Santa figurine :)
What are your favorite holiday traditions? Thank so much for reading today's post. Have a wonderful holiday season.

Imaginisce "Hippity Hop" Release

I'm happy to introduce you to Imaginisce's new collection, "Hippity Hop". I know it is only December, but Spring will be blooming before we know it. This collection is full of beautiful patterned paper, lovely stamps, and the cutest diecuts.

This sweet collection was just perfect for this photo of my niece, Kenzie. I wanted to include as many wonderful, Spring patterns as I could in this layout. Cutting and arranging paper strips made this one quick and easy layout.

See...I told you this collection was cute! I love this little bunny diecut. I layered these sweet diecuts and added Imaginisce I-Rock gems and My Little Shoebox mini-alphas to create this card.


Hop over to the Imaginisce blog to see more design team creations with "Hippity Hop" and enter for your chance to win this sweet collection.

Christmas Inspiration with Imaginisce

Hello, friends! I hope you are having a wonderful December. The tree is trimmed, the gifts bought, and I'm spending lots of time in my studio creating holiday goodies. I'm so excited to share this Imaginisce Christmas mini-album I created.

Supplies include: Imaginisce patterned paper "Santa's Little Helper" and "Happy Harvest" collections, diecuts/stickers "Santa's Little Helper" collection. Album: Bo Bunny. Dies: Spellbinders Nestabilities. Ribbon: Offray. Copper Pen: Krylon. Twine: Doodlebug Designs. Cardstock: Bazzill. Mini-alpha stickers: My Little Shoebox. Adhesive: Glue Arts. Punches: Martha Stewart, Fiskars. Buttons, Machine Stitching.


I didn't want to completely cover the pages of this beautiful album, so I outlined each page with a Copper Krylon pen. It was the perfect touch.


My Spellbinders Nestabilities dies wonderfully framed my journaling circles and photo squares.


Glue Arts dimensional adhesive added that extra pop to my Imaginisce diecuts and stickers.


Twine and ribbon are wonderful for any project and just make me smile :)

I added lots of navy Bazzill cardstock accents to my mini. I think navy is the new black and works great with holiday projects.


To add detail to this page, I punched circles with my Fiskars punch and cut in half to create a cute border.


According to my kiddos, everything begins and ends with Santa. He was the perfect finishing touch to this album.


Thanks so much for stopping by today. Pop over to the Imaginisce blog all week for lots of holiday inspiration from our design team.
