These are such fun potion bottles to make and don't take a long time either.

For my first make I opted to make a poison bottle which was a lot of fun and I used the creepy crawlies too.

For my second make I used the eyes and made a spider themed bottle.

You could fill these up with small sweets as a Halloween treat!

See you again soon,

Elegant Argyle Gift Bag & Mini Purse - Tonic Studios Craft Kit 95

Happy Wednesday!

It's the 20th of the month and time for the latest Craft Kit release from Tonic Studios.  It's a fabulous Kit this month comprising of a double die set, stamps, cardstock and 8"x8" papers perfect to create gift boxes, gift card holders and I even made a memory book with mine!

For my first creations with the Kit I made a Bag Gift Set.  So the large bag can hold a gift of it's own or you can make the mini purse which can go inside it.  These papers reminded me of a famous designer brand.

This is the mini purse and inside you can put a gift card or in another one I added a perfume sample.

For my second make, I made another gift bag set using different papers and adding some stamping and a faux zip at the front along with some charms.

For my final creation, I made the bag into a mini memory book which was a lot of fun to do.  I used the Autumnal Moments paper pad for this one as we are coming up to Autumn.

Here you can see one of the pages from the memory book.  I'll share a reel with the whole book on my instagram page simplyshabneez.

Thanks very much for looking,

Advent Cracker Box - Tonic Studios Birthday Release

Happy Wednesday!

Day 3 of the Birthday Week celebrations continue with Tonic Studios and today is the turn of the Advent Cracker Box.

The die set makes a cracker which can either hold 1 gift or 2.  There are a number of other dies in the set which can be used to decorate the crackers and Foil Fusion Adhesive Sheets which are very easy to apply.

For my first cracker I used a navy base and gold foiling on the foil fusion adhesive sheets.

For the next cracker I decided to use red foil on the foil fusion adhesive sheets and make use of the holly and berry embellishments.

For the final advent cracker box I decided to use the papers from the Jolly Jingles paper pad which I shared yesterday.

I hope you enjoy looking at all that comes up over the next couple of days.

See you again soon,

Jolly Jingles Papercraft Collection - Tonic Studios Birthday Release

Happy Tuesday!

The week long Birthday celebrations from Tonic Studios are well under way and today is the turn of the Jolly Jingles Papercraft Collection comprising of 2 embossing folders, an 8x8 paper pad and a die set which makes a cute little gift bag very easily!

My affiliate links, at no cost to you, with many thanks:

USA: HERE

I really enjoyed creating with this collection.  The papers are beautiful - double sided with silver foiling on some sheets, a die set and 2 embossing folders.

The jumper die I used on my card can also be placed on the front of the gift bag but I wanted to show it off by using it with papers on the front of a card.

I used the die set to create the cute gift bag and added ribbon as a closure.  I added a sentiment from the paper pad on the front and the 'warmest wishes' die sentiment at the bottom along with the candy cane.

See you again tomorrow for Day 3,

Awesome Ocean - Tonic Studios Craft Kit 94

Happy Sunday!

It's been a while but I only got back last night from a short stay in Cumbria.  It was wonderful to have an unexpected break with the family.

I am back in time for Tonic Studios Birthday Week and the celebrations kick off today with the brand new Craft Kit - Awesome Ocean.  There is a lot in this Kit - A double stamp and die set, cardstock, sequins, colouring pencils, acrylic block, paper pad, new watercolour ink pads etc.

My affiliate links are here, at no cost to you, with thanks:

USA: HERE

I made a clean and simple card with elements from the paper pad which I hadn't done in a while and love how it turned out.

The next card I have made a reel for to show how I made it using the stamps, ink pads, sequins and colouring pencils.  You can view this on Tonic Studio's official social media channels.

It's a huge Kit this month with plenty for everyone and good for the time of year as well!

See you again next week for more birthday week products,

Chapeau Box - Tonic Studios

Happy Thursday!

There's a brand new release from Tonic Studios today of the Chapeau Box Die Set.  My affiliate links are below, at no cost to you, with thanks:

As you can expect from Tonic Studios, the die set comes with everything you need to create the gift box, including instructions.  I added patterned paper to mine which was very easy to do and then added the filigree floral die cut on top.  I used Nuvo drops in the centres of the flowers.

I kept the box relatively simple as I wanted it to showcase the bow so added only a few flowers with Nuvo drop centres on the corner of the box.

See you again soon,

Sweet & Treats Tagine - Tonic Studios

Happy Thursday!

There's a fabulous new release today of the Sweet & Treats Tagine from Tonic Studios. Definite Moroccan vibes coming off this one!

My affiliate links, at no cost to you, with thanks:

UK: https://www.tonic-studios.co.uk/95fowr

USA: https://www.tonic-studios.com/6gm7wj

The set makes 2 different sized gift boxes and has a lot of dies to embellish the boxes.

I made the largest gift box first and went for a Moroccan colour combination.  The set has dies to create the cute tassels too.  I added some glitter Nuvo drops to my creation.  

Next, I made one of the smaller gift boxes and added beads to this one along with the tassels.  Again, there is a die in the Set to help you make these.  I like that there are 2 options for the feet too.

For my final gift box I opted to make another small one using the Here Comes Summer Paper Collection as I was feeling in a holiday mood after making the other 2!  I love the 'Oh Go On Then!' sentiment die - made me smile.

Here you can see the box open.

See you again soon,

Mystic Book Nook - Tonic Studios

Happy Friday!

It's been lovely the past couple of days so a good end to the half term.  Another brand new Tonic Studios release today of the second in their series of book nooks.  The first was a Christmas/winter themed one and this a wonderful mystic themed one.

My affiliate links, at no cost to you, with thanks:

This is the book nook from the back, you can see the foiling that I have added.

This is the how it looks from the front.  You get everything you need to create a wonderful scene. 

I love the 3D effect and I added Nuvo drops to the foliage and bullrushes to give additional texture.

Adding some detail to the tree with the Nuvo white gel pens helps bring it alive.

I do have an official unboxing video on the Tonic Studios official social media pages in case you want to see exactly what you get in the pack.

Have a lovely weekend,

I loved working with this die set and it makes the most amazing stacked gift box!  For my first make, I decided to make a 3 tiered gift box in more traditional colours and I used the stunning dies from the set to embellish it. 

For my next gift box I opted for a smaller 2 tiers and used the Vintage Vignette papers along with the floral dies from the set.

Here you can see one of the stacks open and you can see it's a good size.

Scoops & Sprinkles - Tonic Studios Craft Kit 92

Happy Tuesday!

I didn't realise it had been so long since I last posted - doesn't time fly!  It's not that I haven't created, in fact I've been really busy but just haven't blogged.

Today is the 20th of the month which means it's time for the latest Craft Kit from Tonic Studios - Scoops & Sprinkles which is apt considering the fine weather we have been having.

My affiliate links at no cost to you:

UK: HERE

USA: HERE

This really is a fabulous Kit full of everything you need to make gift boxes like the ones above and cards too!

I first made the Sundae gift box which was easy to put together and then I set about decorating it with the various dies.  I used the papers from the paper pad in the Kit for the glass.

Next, I made the cute ice cream cone gift box and used the papers from the pad to cover the whole box.  I even cut out the waffles on the top with it.  I added a ribbon for the closure.

For my final creation I made a card using the embellishment mousse as a messy background (kind of like spilt ice cream) and I used the embossing folder on the hexagons then added ice creams made from the dies in the set and added Nuvo drops to finish.  I used the sentiment from an older Tonic Studios stamp set - Creative Pastimes Collection Stamp Set.

Hope to see you again soon,

This was a fun set to create with and very quick and easy to put together.

For my first gift box I used the dies from the set which are coffee themed of course! The next one I used the papers from Cherish Moments collection which made such a pretty little gift box.

For my final gift box I used coffee themed papers from a previous Craft Kit which worked so well and I added some die cut coffee beans to decorate.  You can see the box open.

Happy Sunday!

We've had a lovely Easter break from school and feel refreshed and ready to start the routine again on Tuesday.

Being the 20th of the month it is time for a new Craft Kit from Tonic Studios - Butterfly Frames.  My affiliate links, with thanks:

USA: https://www.tonic-studios.com/ngac5s

This month's Kit is really pretty and contains a double die set, transfers, embossing folder, Nuvo drops, Embellishment Paste, White gel pens, cardstock and more!  For my first creation I decided to make a fun fold concertina card using the beautiful arched dies and I added transfers to the base and the butterflies.

For my next make, I made another card, a different style, using the dies and adding Nuvo drops and the white gel pen around the edges.

For my final creation, I devised a gift bag, complete with butterfly closure!  This was fun to make with the arched dies and I added a strip from the butterfly embossing folder on the front and used the Nuvo Embellishment paste on top to make it pop.

I hope you enjoyed seeing what I created with the Craft Kit, I do have a reel sharing the contents on my instagram - simplyshabneez.

Enjoy the rest of the Easter long weekend,

USA & Rest of World: HERE

I'm afraid due to coming to the end of the month of fasting I ran out of steam to make all 3 of these forest friends.  I did however manage to make the owl who I have named Olive!  The other animals you can create from this set are a fox and a hedgehog.

You can see how the gift box opens and there is a fair bit of space for gifts inside.  

Thanks very much for popping in daily to read my blog and for anything you have bought using my links.  Truly appreciate it.

Well that's me blogged out for a while now.  For those of you celebrating Eid, I wish you a very happy Eid.  I hope to celebrate with family.

Have a wonderful weekend,
