Fairy Wishes Terrarium

Well hello my crafty Friends!

Today I have a fun project to share with you. As soon as I saw Fleurette Bloom's Fairy Wishes Stamp set I knew exactly what I had to create... To me it screamed terrarium!

Here is a look at it all lit up in the dark. Think this will make a great night light for my daughter! How cool is that!?

My initial thought was to do it in a terracotta pot with a glass bowl and lid. Unfortunately, I tried it and it didn't work so well as the stamped images were too big for the bowl I had. So, I found myself a taller plastic container that I had stashed away in my closet. I knew this hexagonal container would come in handy someday. It's actually a Kirkland Chocolate container from this past Christmas, so if you have one kicking around don't throw it out, just remove the label and you'll eventually find a use for it!

Here is a closer looks at this magical place!

It is so pretty in the daylight too.

Here are the supplies I used, remember to be creative and use supplies already you have.

• Fairy Wishes Stamp Set 
• Stamped colored die cut images (fairy, rabbit, mushrooms)
• used Spectrum Noir Markers to color images + clear Wink of Stella
• a clear plastic container
• battery operated light
• hot glue and glue gun
• dry moss
• river rocks
• twigs
• silk flowers
• wire
• burlap
• glue
• star sequins
• raffia
• soil (optional)

Hope this project has inspired you to step out of your stamping comfort zone and create something unique. With a little imagination everything is possible!

Paper Tropical Fish Aquarium | 3D Paper Decoration | SVGCuts

I am SO super excited to share with you my latest SVGCuts project! Check out my paper Tropical Fish Aquarium, I think this has to be one my favorite SVGCuts project so far. Isn't this just the coolest Fish Tank you have ever seen!?!

Filled with tropical paper fish that will never die if you forget to feed them, and even better yet you will never have to change the stinky water or ever clean it! How perfect could it get?!?

For those of you interested in recreating the Aquarium here are the SVG Kits that you will need:

Box Cards SVG Kit
Gift Boxes SVG Kit

Seaside SVG Kit

Surf Shack SVG Kit

Tropical Friends SVG Collection

Wet N Wild SVG Kit

For the exact instructions and measurements, click HERE.

The COOLEST part is that the aquarium actually lights up! YES, it sure does!
Making this the wickedest (if that is even a word) night light for kids :) My only problem now is that I have to find time to make another one as I have two kids and only one aquarium, LOL!

Here are the battery-operated LEDs tucked secretly under the lid! Clever huh?!? 

Hope I have inspired you to create your own LOW/no-maintenance aquarium. This project would make a great gift for the classroom, the office, or your kid's room!
