PocketBac Parade part 2

It's SNOW MUCH FUN!!   This is such a fun set and I find myself using it often.  I did break out a new stamp from the set--the cute Christmas tree w/ the little bird perched on top.  I don't know why I waited so long to use it.   Silly me! 

Oh and I found a new color combination that I {HEART}.  It is pear pizzazz, tempting turquoise and rich razzleberry.  Are you brave enough to try that one??? 

I had a few scraps left from some other projects.  I love the certainly celery ribbon!

Bermuda Bay you say!  Yep yep--I found it stashed away!

Little birdie how cute you are w/ your little turquoise belly!

Anti Bac Tutorial

A lot of you contacted me about the bigger dimensions for the Anti Bacterial Soap Holders.  I made another holder this morning and took some pictures along the way to share w/ you.  :)

Here is the base of the holder.  It measures 3" x 10 3/4"

Score at 1 1/4", 2 1/2", 6" and 7 1/4"

The second piece, the 'box insert' measures 1 3/4" x 6 1/2"

Score on the 6 1/2" side at 1/2", 1 3/4", 4 3/4" and 6"

***Turn and score at 1 1/2" from each side--this will give you a 1/4" flaps.

Sorry for the confusion--I typed the wrong dimension in! It is corrected now.   I appreciate those who contacted me to let me know. Thank you!!  :)

Next punch out your oval (see next picture below) and cut away the 2 squares on the each corner leaving only the flaps in the center (near the cut out oval).

Because this is a little wider box, you can easily give yourself that little extra needed to put your antibac in. 

Add sticky strip to the flaps and the 1/2" ends of your box insert.

Here is your holder after setting your box insert in the base.  Be sure to stick your edges down well.  :)

While some have used velco to keep their holders closed--I chose ribbon.  I think I have defective velcro.  It simply won't stick!  If you have any tips for my velcro dilemna I would love to hear them!!!

Polar Party AntiBacs

While the weather outside was frightful--stamping was so delightful.  Okay, it wasn't snowing, but it was raining and windy so that counts as frightful, right?  

I picked up a bunch of anti-bacteria hand sanitizer last week when I took Evan up to Madison for a social skills class. I love going into Bath & Body Works.  I love all the soaps!   My favorite all time scents are no longer available though!  I love Moonlight Path and Vanilla Bliss.  Hmmmph!  Why would they discontinue them??   Argh!  I had to go around the store sniffing all the different soaps.  Fine....  It was so much fun.  I don't think they have ever had a bad scent. 

Today, I made little boxes for the antibacs.  I modified the pattern that I found online and made it a 1/4" wider so that I had plenty of room to punch the hole for the antibac.

If you would like the measurements, please leave me a comment and let me know. I will try to get them to you this weekend. 

Here's the inside. 

There's plenty of room in there.
