JuJu Bee's A Very Merry Blog Hop

Welcome to JuJu Bee's A Very Merry Blog Hop & Crop!

This is your first stop.

We are celebrating our 2nd Anniversary and this Festive time of year and invite you to join us in a journey Buzzin' through the DT's blogs.

First off I would like to show you a few projects the DT Bee's have been working on just for this Blog Hop & Crop. They used all past kits, yep that's right, we are still playing with our past kits! That's because they are loaded with tons of Awesome products!!

Take a look at this Amazing LO that DT Coordinator and Sketch Artist Trisha created using one of her very own sketches! Isn't it just BEEutiful?!

Our DT Bee Jamie created this gorgeous card holder. It's such a wonderful idea...especially this time of year when we all know we have oodles of cards! Why not put them in something as pretty as this?

She even made the inside BEEutiful!

Wow, she made her own cards to go in this holder. Now that's one fantastic gift idea. I know I would love to recieve a pretty little card holder filled with these fabulous cards she crafted.

DT Bee Kristin comes at us with another awesome gift idea - custom frames! Isn't this just adorable?! This girl has a knack for altering!!

DT Bee Amy has created a little piggy bank out of a formula can that's just perfect for the children in your life! Not to mention recycling :)

She also created a necklace using scraps...but really who can even pay attention to that necklace when there is such a gorgeous little girl modeling it? ;)

Why not create those special people in your life a card? They are fast, easy, and so much fun...to give and recieve!

I hope you have gotten a few ideas for creating those last minute gifts! For more ideas, fun challenges, games, and prizes please join us in the FORUM for our Online Crop. There is so much going on and we are always looking for some more friendly faces to join us.

**On to the blog candy!**

Up for grabs is JuJu Bee's Sept Kit which features Glitz Design 'Olivia'. This is such a wonderful kit, so vibrant and full of life! All you have to do to be in the drawing to win is tell JuJu Bee's what makes your Holiday Season Very Merry? Do you and your family have special traditions that you celebrate?

Transferring Pictures to Tape

Hello Ladies! Today I would like to share with you one of my favorite techniques I have recently learned. It's fun and can be a little scary, but the results are pretty awesome!! We are going to transfer a picture onto tape, yep....that's right...TAPE! Pretty cool right?!

First the Supplies we need:

*A roll of scotch tape

*A bowl of water

*A popcicle stick

*A pair of scissors

*and a cutting mat

What we are going to do:

Start off by applying the tape to your photo in any way you choose, completely covering the picture. Using your popcicle stick get out any air bubbles and go over the entire picture to ensure that the tape is secured onto the picture...this also helps the ink grab onto the tape! Once you are done with that take your entire photo and submerge it into your bowl of water, I know scary!! This part should take 10-15 minutes depending on the quality of picture paper your picture is printed on. I would check it after 10 minutes to see if the backing will easily rub off with your thumb, if not soak it for a few more minutes! Take your picture out of the water and proceed to rub off all the picture paper with your thumb until all you have left is the tape. It will look a little odd until it is dry! But once it dries the results are pretty awesome! Then you just trim up the excess tape off the edges and there you have it....a picture transferred onto tape!

Here is my completed LO using the picture I did this technique with!

I hope you enjoyed this tutorial and I can't wait to see your LO's using pictures tranferred onto TAPE! Make sure to buzz on over to JuJu Bee's Forum to check out all the tutorials and the many challenges currently going on! See you there!
