New GingerBread Lady 2/16

February 16, 2011 by GingerScraps

I’m sorry to interrupt your typical Wednesday but I have some very exciting news. You should really sit down to hear this. Are you sitting down? Ok, I’ll wait. I’ll sing while you find a chair – “It’s a beautiful day in the neighborhood, a beautiful day for a neighbor. Would you be mine? Could you be mine? Won’t you be my neighbor?” Sorry, I got a little carried away. I take it you are sitting now. Great! Now for my big news.

We have a new designer joining us! Wait until I tell you who it is! I’m still in shock. I’m mean, oh, you want me to just get on with it and tell you who it is? Ok!

It……

is…..

ELLIE LASH!!

Can you believe it? Ellie Lash is joining the Ginger Scraps Family!!

We asked Ellie to tell us a little about herself. This is what she had to say:

Hi, everyone! My name is Ellie Lash. I’m a 36 year old SAHM mom to four-year-old twin boys, Adam and Luke. I’ve been married to my super sweet husband for almost 10 years. We live in sunny, hot Arizona, and while I don’t love the heat I do love almost everything else about living here. I’ve been designing since 2007 and I can’t remember what I ever did before I started! I LOVE scrapping and designing. I’m really excited about joining the wonderful team here at Ginger Scraps and can’t wait to dive in and get involved in the community!

One thing that we like to encourage here at Ginger Scraps is the stalking of our designers. Here are the ways you can stalk Ellie!

Let’s Get Crafty, Valentine Decorations!

February 10, 2011 by GingerScraps

It’s that time again! Time to get crafty! Today I have a bunch of cute ideas for Valentine Decorations that you can make your self 🙂 For some reason I just love to decorate for Valentines Day. I guess it’s all the pink and red and hearts! So cute! Every year I seem to make something new to display in Feb. This year is made a couple of new things. These little home decor crafty items were all made with stuff I had around the house. I did not have to go and buy anything. Which is a good thing! I know I’m not made of money. Now, if you are thinking…I want to make something like that but I don’t have such and such around the house. Just to let you know, the things I did use all came from the Thrift store 🙂

The first thing I made was a cute little Family Photo Holder. I picked up two scrabble board games at a thrift store a while back. No, I do not play Scrabble..I just buy them to make projects. LOL.

Here are the items I used…Oh and a glue gun too…

And here is my Scrabble Tile Family Photo Holder.

The next thing I made was a cute little Valentine Garland for my window. For this one I just used some Hemp yarn, and old book (my Mom make purses out of books, so I took the insides of one of the books she tore up to make a purse) I cut some hearts out of the book pages. Then I strung a few together by poking holes into the hearts and threading the hemp yarn threw the holes, I took some mini wooden clothes pins and clipped the hearts to the “clothesline” that I strung in my window. I added the hearts that I had already made out of felt. Look how cute it is. And so easy to make! You can even take the really easy way out and instead of making the hearts out of felt get the “I Love You Felties” in the GingerScraps store, just print and cut out.

This one I just finished this morning. I saw this cute idea of the alphabet somewhere and thought it was so adorable. This is just a simple Hybird project. I used the Alpha from Happy New Year by GingerScraps(recolored), the Hearts, Wings and burgundy paper are from Angel Mail by, Wyld Web Designs and the craft paper is by GingerScrapsin the Life 365 paper pack. Then I just printed and put it in a frame I got a Wal Mart forever ago.

So, there you have it! I made all three of those cute and fun Decorations with out even going to the store. LOL..They make my little home look so happy. Go make some for your self! Craft Time! Yea! See you next Thursday!
