TGF CHA Exclusives

What's happening friends?!?! How many of you are reading this post from CHA?? may i just say i'm soooooooo JEALOUS?!? wish i could be there!

But you know what, i am there... in thought and creativity!!! yup, yup... for those of you who are at CHA, you just might have seen some of my creations sprouting right there at TGF's booth! and for those of you who have been following TGF on Facebook, Jess has been treating you all to some sneaks! Today is the day i reveal my creations being proudly displayed at The Greeting Farm's booth at Winter CHA 2012!!! Woooohooooo!!!

i was definitely on CLOUD 9 when Marie and Jess asked me to be one of their CHA exclusive guests in creating some NON-CARDS to showcase at their CHA booth... in fact my mind was racing with excitement! THANK YOU TGF, MARIE and JESS for the honor of once again being apart of the TGF family and the ability to create for TGF!!!

so, beware cause i've got lots of pictures to share with you today....
first up, one of 3 creations... the TGF banner! anyone remember seeing this peek on FB?!?! for this banner i tried to stick with the colors of TGF (ok my interp)... red, that's a must and i went with a dark brown vs a black... of course some pink and kraft colors as well....

All DP is from Pebbles, Inc. Valentine's 2012 line... sorry i've failed to catch the actual line name... =)
Miss Anya Love is featured on the first pendant... yes, she will definitely feel the LOVE this v-day... she's holding a mix of colored roses (yikes, i've had these roses lying around with no company to give credit to)...
My Guy Ian is featured on the last pendant... totally handsome and ready to swoon Miss Anya off her feet!
i did say this was made for TGF so it was given to include TGF on the banner... the letters are cut using Lifestyle Crafts English Rose Alphabets... and just a hint of bling and roses to accent these pendants.... likey???

next project.... MAGNETIC MEMO BOARD....
this was totally inspired by my friend Jenny... (THANKS JENNY!) she made some last year for the holidays and gave me some pointers since i was going crazy wanting to try one... i finally did... first one ever and it was made especially for this TGF CHA Exclusive (oh yah i'll definitely be making more of these!) Fleur Anya (one of my faves) takes the spotlight on this one.... and she is paper pieced using DP from K&Co Poppy Seeds collection... the DPs covering the tin sheet is from Autumn Leaves Poppies collection... very simply embellished as the DPs really pop...
marble magnets to help keep your memos/notes in place.... punched out some left over DP and stamped the Greeting Farm logo directly onto the DP... the logo is from the Signature set released awhile ago so please note that it is no longer available for purchase.... adhered the DP to small clear flat marbles and added a magnet to the back... voila!

last project... ALTERED PICTURE FRAME....
you may have seen this one?! if you haven't yet, let's take a closer look.... i've made just a few altered picture frames since learning how to do them... again i give credit to my friend Jenny for guiding me... we both went on trial and error when making these and compared our pros and cons... Thanks again Jenny! this one has a spotlight on the original Princess Anya...

the whole frame is covered with DP from EK Success Princess collection....
close up of the sentiment from the Butterfly Wishes set... (set is no longer available at TGF)... i really love this sentiment and felt it perfect for this frame... oh, did i mention that this sentiment was produced by TGF's very own Jess?!?! =) the sentiment has been stamped on SB Label 14 and distressed with Memento Rose Bud ink... not complete without some bling and a butterfly!
close up of Princess Anya.... notice anything? i actually popped her dress to add some scrap lace to give the overall look some puff! hehehe... i also popped out her crown and star on her wand...
bling found on this side is from Pebbles Inc. Ever After Collection... it wasn't intentional to use the bling but in the end it was just right....

WELL.... are you still with me??? hope so because i still have more info to give you... SO, which project did you like best??? LEAVE A COMMENT on THIS POST, because ONE RANDOM comment will be chosen to win a SPECIAL TREAT!!! Winner will be announced when Jess returns from CHA, on the TGF blog!!

Please head on over to the TGF blog and check out yesterday's post as well to see the beautiful scarf Bonnie made for CHA too! and check out today's post featuring my projects!!

That's it from me today!! Thank you so much for dropping in and checking out my TGF CHA Exclusives!! and a HUGE MAHALO to Marie and Jess for having me!!! Luv yah both!!!! Mwah!

  7. My favorite is definitely the magnet board -- I could easily use several of those. Actually, I think I'll make one for each of my nieces and nephews this year. It's a perfect gift to tailor to the recipient!

  21. Hi Kris! Congrats on being chosen as one of TGF's exclusive guest creators for CHA! Wow, what an honor but it's no surprise that they chose you. Your designs are all so special and inspiring. I love your Princess frame and would like to make one like it one day for my niece. TFS!

  23. Hey Kris! It so awesome that you were asked to be the exclusive guest creator for CHA. What an honor! All three of the items that you made are great. So hard to choose which one is my favorite, but I guess if I really had to choose I would say that the Princess frame is. I need to make time to make one one day for Kylie.
