More fun with junk. This one is another piece made from the wheat thins cracker box. I used another box as a template (see photo below) which I love doing with acetate packaging like this one that held washi tapes. At some point I'm sure I'll use the acetate box too, but for now it makes a great template.

#the12daysofjunkmas, cont'd
These yummy cluster pieces started as a mailing envelope. I literally squealed when I opened it because of the corrugated padding on the inside. Truth be told, I was more excited about the envelope than its contents! My husband doesn't get it, but I know my crafty friends will! 😆

Oh, I had fun with this one. I used a wheat thins cracker box to create the tag box, and Simple Stories Vintage Fresh Snow for the design elements. It turned out even better than I anticipated and I love it! Hope you're inspired.

#the12daysofjunkmas, with Crafty by Toni
Good morning! And welcome to the studio on the go. Yesterday, as I was beginning this project for Toni's 12 Days of Junkmas challenge, I realized how badly I packed my craft tote for this trip. Seriously, there is so much I wish I would have included in my traveling craft bag. Ugh. It's so hard to know what you will really want to have with you and what you won't use in a three month time period. Alas.
BUT, I knew I would be doing some Christmas crafting so at least I included some appropriate supplies for that. These tags -which I completely love!!!- all started as price tags from clothing purchases that would typically be tossed in the trash. And that's where junkmas comes in, of course. Didn't they turn out so cute?? All the adorable cut out vintage images are digital files I purchased from Etsy sellers. I've used bits of cheesecloth, ribbon, fabric, and twine as well.

A few Christmas cards
Had to get the juices flowing somehow, so I grabbed my Simple Stories Vintage Winter Woods paper pad and ephemera pieces and whipped out my Christmas cards. Sometimes you need a deadline to get your engine started, you know? LOL Here are a few of my favorites.
