Craft Show

So I decided to do the Local Craft Show this year. I was hoping to have more stuff but I think I have enough right now and have some more ideas that I will hopefully get to this week. Here is a few of the things I have done right now.

Jingle Bell Hop

Welcome to the AC Bailey Jingle Bell Hop! With the holidays literally around the corner, the AC Bailey Design Team has decided to help Santa (and you) out this year with some fun and easy projects to help make the holiday gift season a bit easier. And just like Santa, we've also gotten some extra help this year and asked some additional elves to help out and post some of their cool projects too! And if that isn't enough help...we've also arranged for some early Black Friday sales just in case you need some products to get the projects completed.

So come out and meet our Elves...check out their projects...leave a comment on their blogs and be eligible for a prize - upload some of your completed projects from any of the tutorials into the ACBailey gallery and be eligible for another prize!

Projects need to be completed and uploaded into the gallery by Tuesday, November 24th at Midnight Eastern to be eligible for a prize.

Hello! You have reached the "end" of your blog hop journey! If you came to me first, or somewhere in the middle make sure you go back to visit the other blogs!


I became a consultant with AC Bailey Designs about 11 months ago and I love it! The girls on the Design Team are always coming up with great ideas to keep us busy and inspired. Also, Erica is just the best! I don't know how she does it, but as busy as she is she gets your questions answered and orders out immediately! If you are not already part of the ACB family, make sure you hop on over and join the forum and I can answer any questions you have about becoming a consultant!


Now on to my project......

You will need:

2 solid colors of Card stock

1 Patterned paper
chipboard letters
ribbon or lace
rhinestones or stickles
eyelets and an eyelet setter


This is a simple Home Decor project perfect for your Christmas or Thanksgiving table.










Cut 6 squares of background card stock 4 ½” x 4 ½
















Cut 3 squares of patterned paper 4” x 4”.
















Cut 3 squares of Card Stock 4” x 4”and 3 squares of patterned paper 3 ½’ x 3 ½’.
Adhere the 4” patterned paper to the 4 ½” cardstock then adhere the 3 ½” card stock to the patterned paper.















Adhere pieces of lace or ribbon to the remaining 4 ½” pieces of cardstock. And attach cardstock.

















Attach chipboard letters.















Embellish with rhinestones or stickles.











Punch holes at ½” and attach eyelets. I Used my Crop-o-dile
















Use ribbon or wire to attach the pieces together through the eyelets.

Freaky Friday 10/30/2009

For this weeks Freaky Friday Challenge at AC Bailey Designs we had to dig deep into that stash of pictures. I mean....REALLY deep!! We had to scrap a layout about US on Halloween!! It could be from when we were a child or even a past Halloween in 'witch' we dressed up!!

I used Fancy Pants Trick or Treat (skull and candy corn)Pink Paislee Twilight Collections Borderlines Making Memories Spook Alley Shimmer Rub-ons Fancy Pants trick or treat rub-ons Stickles Buttons (mixed from different companies that I don't remember)and Halloween Spooktakular ribbon.


Halloween 2009

This is the costume Colin picked out this year. The mask that came with it didn't fit his head so we grabbed this one at the last minute. I usually make his costume so I was disappointed when he wanted to buy one this year :(
