My Heart Skips by Debbie Fisher
What did you all think of the new Pantone color of the year last week? I love the tangerine color. This week we have another color challenge that was Pantone’s color of the year 2011…Honeysuckle. This color matches Tombow’s Dual Brush Pen 743 (hot pink).
With Valentine’s Day sneaking up on us, I thought this color would be perfect for a candy box. I found this tutorial here. The tutorial shows to use Hershey Nuggets, but I had some raspberry Ghiradelli’s on hand and they fit perfectly! I can get 2 into each little matchbox. The matchboxes were cut with SU!’s die that my friend had and I cut a bunch of them over a year ago. They are now coming in handy as I plan to make more of these boxes for friends and family.
Tip: One of the wonderful things about markers and rubberstamps is that the markers are less expensive and you can have so many more colors. I colored Our Craft Lounge’s new Every Heart Beat stamp set (the zig zag image) with the 743 Dual Brush Pen and stamped it on a label that also was on the die that I cut. I then stamped the sentiment with black ink.
I used Mono Adhesive Power Bond to put the whole box together. I prefer using a stronger adhesive for projects like this.
I hope I inspired you to start working on your Valentine projects. I have a couple more I will be sharing with you this month as well.

next you can decorate the top of the pail. using a circle cutter layer various size circles and glue them down with either Tombow MONO Adhesive Permanent, or MONO Power Bond. Either will work, just depends on how strong of a hold you would like (or who is going to be handling the pail. Power Bond stands up to little fingers really well.) on top of the circles add an embellishment or die cut with the Tombow Foam Tabs for added “POP”. and lastly add some ribbon. i added it in two places. first i cut a piece of ribbon to fit around the pail, laid the ribbon flat and applied Tombow MONO Power Bond to the backside of the ribbon and wrapped it round. secondly i cut several strips of ribbon to tie to the handle. i didn’t want my ribbon to fray, so i dipped the ends in Tombow MONO Aqua Liquid Glue. once it dries it works just like a fray check would.
wouldn’t these pails be great stuffed with all kinds of Tombow goodies?!?! off to fill them up…i suspect a few teachers might be the recipients of these pails this coming holiday!

ready for what??? the holidays! my husband and i are trying to do “organized christmas” this year; to have everything cleaned, decorated, bought and prepared for by the first week in december. it is ambitious, but i’m excited about having a plan! a plan is good… being prepared is good…
anyone around last year remember the shopping organizer i put together? here’s the link- HOLIDAY SHOPPING ORGANIZE
i followed my own directions and made one for this year. only instead of just listing my shopping lists and stores, i’m using it for checklists for “organized christmas” as well.
(5-6) double sided pattern papers
white cardstock (to make tags for the pockets)
coordinating stickers, die cuts, etc.
letter stickers or rub-ons
Tombow MONO Multi Liquid Adhesive
Tombow MONO Powerbond
Tombow MONO Aqua Liquid Glue
directions:
1. cut (2) 12X12 pattern papers to 12×8
score each page two times, at 4″ and 8″, creating three panels/sections which can be folded accordion style
2. using Tombow MONO Adhesive Power Bond adhere the two pages together by overlapping two of the panels
3. create several more “panels” – 4″x9″ and again using MONO Multi or Power Bond to put them over the accordion folded panels. i attempted to have every “page” have a different pattern.
5. use a corner rounder on all corners
6. cut cardstock 3″x4″ to use for pockets, and round two of the corners
using Tombow MONO Aqua Liquid Glue, put glue on three sides of the cardstock- the bottom and two side to create the pockets
7. cut white cardstock to create tags (as many as you need) there could be a possible 10 pockets if every panel is used, or 8 pockets with a front and back cover
apply tabs to the top of each tab. i used these office supply tabs, but have also used pre-cut journaling spots and punched shapes glued to the top with MONO Aqua Liquid Glue
8. make a belly band cut a cardstock strip 2″x12″, wrap it around the folded-up organizer
use Tombow MONO Adhesive Power Bond to keep the strip together
8. decorate the front of the belly band
november is going to be a busy month! but i’ll be ready with this handy organizer in my bag!

“How do you get ready for the holidays?” This was the question asked of the Tombow Design Team this week. Be sure to stop by the blog every day this week to see the wonderful creations by the team.
I love to make altered gifts of all kinds. This jar is one of MANY that my mom had saved from some fruit that she buys in them. I love the size and shape and have altered many of them.
I used some older fall Basic Grey papers, punches, my Cricut, rubberstamp, button, and ribbon to create a fun jar that can be used as a treat holder or throughout the year, you could write down things you are thankful for and put them in the jar and then read them at Thanksgiving. We have done this and it’s fun to reminisce over the year and remember things that we had forgotten.
A tip for adhering the paper to the jar. I used Mono Adhesive Power Bond to adhere only one short end to the “back” of the jar and then the same adhesive to the other short end to overlap. This seems to keep the paper from “buckling” especially if the jar isn’t perfectly rounded. I also used the Power Bond adhesive for adhering the ribbon to the lid and papers to the top of the lid. I used 1/4 of a Power Tab to add the button.

For this week’s ABC (Anything But a Card) Challenge, I decided to finish this album I started 3 years ago!! Unfortunately, since it didn’t have the wrapper I do not know who it is by. It is a chipboard album that came blank. I altered it with papers that I had precut (so don’t know who they are by either!…if anyone knows, please let me know and I will add it to my post).
I used Mono Adhesive Power Bond to adhere the papers to the chipboard on the outside as well as on the inside. To adhere the Fall letters (cut with Stamped Cricut cartridge) I used Stamp Runner Dot Adhesive. I love using this adhesive for letters, because I can rub off the excess adhesive. Marie did a tipnique on this last week. You can go here to see it. I’ve been doing this for a long time. The dot adhesive is perfect for those smaller pieces.

I have been admiring the pouches I’ve seen on blogs and when I saw these black paper sacks in the Walmart card section, I decided to get a few and try my hand at making them.
This week Tombow is teaming up with Fancy Pants, so with all the goodies they sent us (THANK YOU Fancy Pants!), I had just the supplies I needed to create one with a Halloween theme.
I folded the bottom up and sewed around the edges to creat a pocket. (You actually get two pockets: the one created by folding up the bottom and one from the top opening.)
Using goodies that Fancy Pants sent us, I decorated the front of the first pocket, with their patterned papers, diecuts, rub ons and chipboard accents. I adhered the pieces with Tombow’s Mono Adhesive Power Bond. The ribbon is not from FP, but rayon seam binding.
In the back pocket, I created a mini notepad made from the pieces I had cut for the pocket front.
Here is a look at the candy bag that I tucked in the front pocket:

This week on Tombow the design team is creating items for the challenge them “It’s My Party”. When I think of Halloween, I think of it as a time for small children to dress up and go out and trick or treat. But I thought it might be fun to design something for your girlfriends. Maybe a night out with fun, food, and laughter.
I wanted to create something a little more “mature” and came up with this “Happy FALLoween” card (could be an invite or maybe even a “thank you” to send out after the gathering to thank those who attended) and a treat holder. It is so much fun to create a little thank you for the guests to take home with them as a reminder of the fun times had that evening.
For my card, I used a SU! punch to punch the bird and branch in black. I punched 3 of the wings and adhered them together with Mono Adhesive Dots. A little tip for using adhesive on small pieces is to lay the piece that you want to add adhesive to on a scrap piece of paper. Add the dot adhesive all over the piece and then lift up. When you apply it to where you want it, just rub away any extra “dots” that may be on the edges. I have been doing this a long time and I love how I can get adhesive all over little pieces to get them to adhere.
I also used the dot adhesive for adhering the page from a book. It adheres well to old book pages, where the stronger adhesives can sometimes separate the paper.
I printed the Happy FALLoween from Designed2Delight onto designer paper and then cut with a Nestibilities die from Fancy Tags 1.
To create my treat holder, I cut designer paper to fit a toilet paper tube. Then along the outside ends, I applied a thin spiral of Mono Multi Liquid Glue along the edge. After it dried clear, I scrunched and gathered crepe paper along the edge to create a ruffle. After the glue dried I zig zag stitched and then decorated. The 3 panels behind the bird are cut with my Cricut using the shape from Accent Essentials cartridge. The panels are adhered to the tube with Power Tabs, so that they stay on since the tube is rounded.
I cut the end off of a gusset cello bag and tied off with rick rack. Then I inserted it into the tube, added corn candy flavored taffy and tied off the other end.
I love to decorate and have a theme when I have friends over. I found this blog with a fun party themes and thought this and/or this link would also be so much fun to decorate for a “FALLoween” theme.

The theme for this week on Tombow is Halloween. Be sure to stop by Tombow’s blog every day this week for some fun holiday ideas.
I created a fun little treat container using a toilet paper tube. These are so fun and easy to make and I love to recycle whenever possible. Here is how it is created:
1. Cut patterned paper the length and 1/2″ extra for the width and adhered to the tube with Mono Adhesive Power Bond.
2. Cut a strip of the orange stripe and cut a scallop edge on one long side. Adhered it with the same adhesive.
3. I covered the border edge with dark purple ribbon using Mono Adhesive Dots.
4. I finished decorating with some Halloween stickers that I have had for quite some time.
5. For the bottom, I cut a scallop circle with my Nestibilities die that was a little bit bigger than the tube and applied Mono Multi Liquid Glue around the edge of the tube and centered it in the scallop circle. (note: this is really a decorative feature as the cello bag is tight enough that it doesn’t fall through)
6. Insert a cello bag into the finished tube and fill with candy. Tie the top with decorative ribbon.

Spooky Bat DoodleDab
To make the Spooky Bat, you need to learn how to make the Curve Stroke
with the brush tip of the Dual Brush Pen.
Spooky Bat loves to embellish a Halloween card, a frightful scrapbook page or even a ghoulish treat bag.
To make the Spooky Bat, you
need to learn how to make the Curve
Stroke with the brush tip of the Dual Brush Pen. Spooky Bat loves to embellish a Halloween
card, a frightful scrapbook page or even a ghoulish treat bag.
DoodleDab CURVE STROKE
Step 1. Start here with the point
of the brush tip and press down to start forming the stroke.
Step 2. Go in the direction of the
arrow, pushing on the brush tip a little more to make the stroke wider.
Step 3. Start to lift up the tip at
the end and off the paper to create the sharp point.
Step 4. Practice
making the curve stroke. Try making it smaller or larger.
Step 5. After you
are happy with your stroke, make it in the opposite direction! It’s a little
easier to draw the left to right curve stroke if you angle your paper slightly.
DoodleDab
SPOOKY BAT
Step 6. Start the Spooky Bat by making two mirror-image curve strokes
Step 7. Add smaller curve strokes to each side to form the wings.
Step 8. Add tiny teardrop strokes for the ears
Step 9. Using the fine tip of the pen; add eyes, feet and little curls on
the top of the wings – makes them look a little bit more vampir-ish!
Spooky Bat can have a dotted flight path or little movement marks for their flapping wings. He also comes in
lots of spooky colors. Spooky Bat also likes to hang around the bat cave. Turn the paper upside down when drawing Spooky Bat sleeping in the cave.

Today I have a fun Baby Boy Paper Bag album that I created for my cousin’s precious baby James David Prouty. My cousin has decorated his baby room in green, burnt orange and chocolate. It was so much fun to make an album in these colors. I just went thru all my stash of papers, stickers and embellishments and picked out everything that matched and then started cutting papers to fit my paper bag album.
I used Tombow’s Mono Adhesive Power Bond to put the album together. I like the extra strength of this adhesive and use it on my albums. For the ribbons, I used Mono Adhesive Dots, Roller. There are lots of pages and photos. I hope you enjoy viewing them all.
I typed his name on cardstock, then punched with an oval word punch, then ribbon cut the ends.
Here is an angle view of the whole album: 
And here are the inside pages:
