Recycling Containers.

Jess made these darling little containers for us! I had seen them on Patty Bennetts blog and thought they were cute, but never made one. Well, Jess got right on it!

When the containers come from SU! they are full of buttons, brads and other bling! Then you use the goodies, you are left with a clear little containers. This is a perfect idea! They even hold little treats!

Happy Anniversary, Mom and Dad!

Today, is my parents anniversary. This is the card that I made for them. I used a card in the latest Stampin' Success as inspiration. I changed the colors and some of the elements! I was very pleased with how it turned out! The stampset that I used is the Flowers Awash Stamp Set. I watercolored them with my aquapainter. In the card that I cased they used buttons in the center of the flowers. But, I haven't bought any buttons lately, so my colors were retired. So, I improvised with the Vintage Brads and buttons. And, then I added two collections of buttons to my order....they are on their way!

Happy Anniversary, mom and dad! Have a great day!

Plane and Simple

Plane and Simple is a stamp set that is available in the Occassions Minni Catalog. These two cards were made by Bonnie. They are the cards that she swapped last week at Jessica's house.

I don't have this set. So, these samples are very welcomed! Thanks for sharing Bonnie!

Darling Card.


This is the card Jess taught us how to make last week. Using the XL scallop circle punch we punched out the center. We stamped the cupcake and adhered it to a circle of cardstock. We threaded the string through the circles and adhered it in between the layers of cardstock.

.


The paper and ribbon are from the Sale A Bration DSP pack! How cute! Now, to come up with a similar card for my next workshop!


Enjoy the grey day!

SU! Supplies come in handy.

Last Tuesday, Ryan informed me that Wednesday was "silly hat" day. And, he wanted a green and yellow silly hat. With little time to "create" a hat. I put my thinking cap on.......

I cut strips of retired yo-yo yellow and glorious green cardstock into 1 inch strips. Then, I used my bone folder to "curl" the paper. I took an old hat and stapled the paper curls onto the hat. I also cut the top seam and added some curls up there too!


He was happy, so I was happy! I guess it truly is the simple things in life!
