October Art Giveaways

News from the Cool2Craft Creative Play Muse!

Every Wednesday in October I will be announcing the winner of a handmade treasure on the Cool2Craft Live Pajama Party.  I love love love October!  I get so excited about the cool weather and warm, rich colors of autumn. 

I’m going to share my excitement with you by giving away some of my Halloween themed artwork!  Here’s how it will work:  I’ll announce the first giveaway on tomorrow night’s Cool2craft Live Pajama Party with host Lisa Fulmer.  I’ll tell you where to leave a comment to qualify for the prize, then, on the next week’s Pajama Party (October 6th at 9pm EST), I’ll announce the winner.  Stay tuned to Cool2Craft Live for all the fall fun!

Tacky Glue and the Crafty Sisters save the Day

I was working on a display for an upcoming workshop I’m teaching, punching it up with microfine glitters, when I found that my special expensive glue had dried up!  Worse than that, the fine point metal tip didn’t fit any of my other glue bottles!  Then I remembered the Crafty Sister’s tape method for making a fine point on the Tacky Glue bottle!  It worked so much better than that ridiculous “special glue”. 

Thanks Crafty Sisters!  Thanks Tacky Glue!

Crown Cupcake Sleeve Template

  Sorry this is late!  What fun it was being on the show Monday!  I just loved making these cupcake sleeves!

As promised, here is the template.  I hope you’ll send in photos of what you did with it!
