Fang-tastic Blog Hop – Day 3

October 9, 2011 by Rebecca Wagner 14 Comments

Hi there and welcome to Day 3 of the Fang-tastic Blog Hop!  There is still time to enter the giveaways, details will be at the end of this post.

Since this is my first hop, I really wanted to try to make something for each day.  It is pretty tiring, I am enjoying it at the same time though.  I had taken pictures last night but they came out kind of dark so I had to wait till today for the sunny shine.  Hope you enjoy!

I call this one “Eye There!”  Get it?!?  Lots and lots of eyes in this tree!  Hehehee, “eye” crack myself up sometimes.  OK, I will stop now.  I must say I love the Bee Witching Collection sooooo much, I can’t stop using it.  When Bee showed me this set I instantly had tons of ideas.  As you can see I used googly eyes for a few spots but on the others I brought out the glow in the dark paint again.  The difference this time is I added Iris’.  Some are blue, some are purple and of course for Halloween, red.

I love this picture.  The two eyes staring down at the little sign.  I looked for a stamp that would say what I wanted but it was not to be found.  I have a mini alphabet that I got at the dollar bin at Michaels.  You can tell I need more practice with stamping.  I’m not that good with it.

I had to find a reason to use Alyssa’s stamps too.  I love the two new Halloween sets (next year Alyssa, your new set should include my clever little saying  ^__^) she has available now.  The sentiment above is from Ghostly Greetings.

I used the Midnight Magic paper stack by Recollections, the solid and pattern except the tree.  That paper is WorldWin DoubleMates in Terracotta.  The cool thing about the paper is it has a different color on each side.  All I had to do was gently rip the top layer off for the knot in the tree.  The lighter color is actually the color on the other side.  Neat, huh?  A simple nail file was used to distress the base paper, Recollections ribbon and black Stickles-like glitter glue, another dollar bin buy.

Hope you enjoyed today’s card, so here is how to enter my giveaway if you haven’t already.  I will be drawing a winner on Tuesday, October 11th.  To enter, please follow the directions on Day 1’s post which can be found here.  Only comments made on “DAY 1” will be entered into the giveaway.

    Becki, you are doing great with your creations for the hop. It CAN be tiring. You are so cute. I think we have the same sense of humor! I totally got your card–cracked me up too! I think it just fine to use an alpha stamp set. I do that–think I even have the same one you used!! Next time try printing from your word processing program and then punch/cut! Looking forward to tomorrow–you can do it!!

Sneak peek at the A5 spirals made just for the Coa Sneak peek at the A5 spirals made just for the Coach notebook.
White plastic coil, slim cardboard backing so it slides right into the pocket, and cardstock covers — personalized, not coated.

Alien cover = Monthly Deluxe (with lined pages in back).
Bookshelf cover = Weekly Horizontal Compact.

We did have to cut the deluxe notes section to keep everything on a smaller coil (so the weekly fits), but we’re still testing what else we can add… including a special feature I’m not spilling yet.

Trying to make this thing as functional as humanly possible — stay tuned. 👀✨

Testing something new… 👀 Our A5 Coach noteboo Testing something new… 👀
Our A5 Coach notebook is finally getting the glow-up she deserves, and we’re playing with different refill styles to see what fits, flips, and feels right inside that TikTok-famous cover.

This spiral beauty is one of the contenders — and yes, we’re this close to having the perfect setup. Stay tuned… it’s all coming together. ✨📚

Who else is ready to upgrade their Coach with something way more functional than the paper it came with?

It’s TikTok-famous and cute, but the “calendar” situation? Yeah… we can do better.

We’re in testing mode to create actually gorgeous refills for it — monthlies, weeklies, and all the pages this thing should have come with in the first place.

Question for you:
👉 What kind of refill would you want first — monthly, weekly, or notes?

Stay tuned. This baby’s about to level up. 📆🌸

We retired the old gold after too many print headaches (RIP, shiny troublemaker). This new satin finish keeps that luxe vibe but actually shows the lines—no more disappearing print when the light hits it. Sometimes change really is golden.
