Little Frankie

The Curly label punch is the same shape as the top note die cut, so I did a Little Frankie.

I also used 1/2 and 1/4 inch circle punches for the eyes. For the nose and side bolts I used the smallest arrow on the my way punch and cut off the tip.

For a great tutorial on how to do the big Frankie and several other characters go to Tammy's blog at Dream, Create and Share. http://dreamcreateandshare.blogspot.com/

I think the next one I am going to try is the Santa Claus one. It is cool how she used dry embossing on the hair and beard.

Witch Sack

I thought the Frankie sacks I had seen on several different paper craft web sites were so cute I had to make one. Both my daughters thought it was cute too. I showed Michelle a blog that had done the same thing with a bat, vampire and a Santa Claus theme. (Link to that blog http://dreamcreateandshare.blogspot.com/2009/09/and-heres-frankie.html )
Michelle decided she wanted to do a witch. If it was me wanting to do a witch, the first thing I would do is surf the web searching for someone's ideas of how to do a witch. Not Michelle, she is a lot more creative than I am. She sits down with pencil and paper and does a sketch, then proceeds to make her witch sack.




I am so proud of her! Here is what she used.

Starbook class

I took a class to learn how to make a starbook. Christie Hawkins (pic) from Jacksonville, FL taught it while she was here in Chattanooga visiting family.
It was fun making this, but it sure did take a lot more time to complete than I first thought!
