The Really Crafty Link Party #135 featured posts!

Hello and welcome. It's Friday again, which means it's time to share the features of this week's edition of The Really Crafty Link Party.

We had a very busy party this week, so a special thank you to everyone who linked up, shared on social media and visited during the last few days!

Check out the amazing features below!

DIY Stamped Gift Wrap Paper

What do you do when you need to wrap a gift and you have no gift wrap paper at home? Well, of course, you make your own!

That's what I did last week, when I needed paper to wrap a book and all I had in my storage bin was Christmas-themed paper. So, I took a blank page from one of my kids' larger drawing pads, brought out the stamps, and got down to work.

My adventures in cake decor - part 1

For a long time I've been wanting to enter the word of cake decor. I'll never be the Cake Boss, but spending too much money buying fancy cakes was beginning to irk me. If you've been visiting for a while, you already know that I always prefer to do things myself. 

This summer, when the birthday season began in our house, I took a deep breath and decided to run the risk of serving guests a mess of a cake. Luckily, while there were a few hiccups in the process, I (and the cakes) made it almost unscathed.  

10 Free and Simple Slow Cooker Recipes

When school starts up and schedules become fuller, it can be difficult to get a home cooked meal on the table during weeknights. That’s why slow cookers can be a lifesaver when it comes to feeding hungry mouths.

My friends at YourBestDigs recently created 5-ingredient slow cooker recipe cards that make dinners so much easier. Simply add the 5 ingredients to your slow cooker in the morning, and you have a meal at night!

Welcome to The Really Crafty Link Party #135!

Hello, and welcome! I hope you've all had a lovely weekend and I'm so glad you could join us for The Really Crafty Link Party #135!

Come and share all your posts, try to visit at least a couple of other links and spread the word on social media - the more, the merrier.

The linkup will be open until next Thursday and I will be posting the features on Friday, September 21st.

Did you miss last week's amazing features? Click the image below to check them out:

The Really Crafty Link Party is focused on crafts, so the idea is for you to link up all your crafty posts: DIYs, printables, home decor, tutorials, recipes, whatever you want to share. Feel free to add as many links as you want, and old posts are welcome too!

I have no problem if you want to add the same link in more than one week; it will still be eligible for a feature but please note that I will comment and add it to the Pinterest board only once.You can add posts on other subjects (family friendly please), but only craft related posts will have a chance to be featured and will be pinned to the party's Pinterest board.

If you host your own party, add it too - it may not be featured, but you'll be sharing it with all of us anyway, and everyone loves to discover new parties!

There are no thumbnails in the party, so in the "name" field of the linky make sure you add an interesting title/description to your post. If you follow me via any social media (icons in the side bar) let me know in the comments and I'll make sure to follow you back!

By linking up you give me permission to use your photos in features or round-ups, and to share your posts on social media (always with a link back to you for proper credit).

Thank you again for stopping by, and have a wonderful week!

When you linkup, your e-mail will be added to The Really Crafty Link Party mailing list and you will receive one (and only one) e-mail each week to let you know when the party goes live. All mail addresses are kept strictly confidential. You can unsubscribe at any time by replying to the e-mail. For additional details, please read the privacy policy.
