Hello Happy Crafters and welcome to The 7 Kids College Fund Design Team blog hop! Gosh, I'm happy to see you here - you have already seen some really awesome creations made with the Tim Holtz idea-ology products created by my DT sistah's! Is your mind whirling about what YOU can create with them? The list is totally endless. Make sure you comment at every blog to be elegible to win all these goodies from the Tim Holtz Idea-ology!







My granddaughters birthday is coming real soon and I wanted to give her something special. She loves my heart bracelet so I bought one for her. I made this cute little box to match the card. I wanted to show you the versatlity of two products by Tim. The "Game Spinners" I used for Marci to stand on and point to the sentiment below. The "Fanciful accourtrements"  I used on the front of the box, on the flower by the sentiment and on the bow. You can also use the game spinners as hands on a clock:)
