These are just a few of the fab-u-lous make-and-takes I made at CHA. The valentine-themed round chipboard box was made at the Provocraft booth. We used flourishes and alphabets cut with the Cricut machine. I decided not to use the words they provided, which was "Amore."
Another fun project was this etched mirror. Our instructor was this lovely lady, Barbie, who made taking the class so much fun. This was the first time I ever used a glass etching product and it wasn't hard at all! The product is from QuicKutz.
The Bind It All booth had this great mini book for us to make. This was the first time I've ever used the BIA and it's on my "must-have" list. Take a look at that latch and leather strap! Love it!
This cute treat box/bag was demonstrated by Debbie Olson herself -- very exciting, indeed! She was at the JustRite booth demonstrating the new sets. You can't see it in this photo, but there are blings added on the ribbon on the box and on the heart tag.
This frame we were able to decorate with just about anything -- seashells, beads -- I chose glass. The booth that sponsored this make and take was an adhesive company and I'm sorry that I forgot their name, but it was fun hot gluing these colored glass pieces. I chose these colors because they were perfect for my daughter's room.
This was a really fast and fun project with large safety pins and beads from Pincharming . The lady at the booth was very nice and even though I had a huge headache, I wanted to stop and make a couple of these. I told her that these would make great embellishment for cards and at the same time, would make a great gift.
A paper company, I forgot the name again, had this make and take. It's a mini scrapbook with three 8.5" x 5.5" textured card stock folded in half, attached by tying ribbon through three punched holes. The front is simply decorated with a piece of pattern paper and a round punched paper. The initial is a raised sticker. Very easy and fast to make.
I hope these will inspire you to make your own creations. I know I have a few ideas of my own, I just need lots of time to make them all!
