He is Risen

I think this little lamb is adorable but I didn't like the sentiment because the word Easter was all in lower case letters and for me  that is just a word that should be capitalized.  So. I cut it off and used this sentiment from Teeny Tiny Wishes instead.  For the inside I used an empty cross because He is Risen!  Thanks for stopping by.

Happy Easter

Love how this card turned out...I have been seeing several versions of this on Pinterest but not sure the originator is.  The soft colors of Easter are my favorite.  I just realized that Easter is early this year just 10 day after St. Patrick's day so I am going to have to get busy.  Thanks for stopping by!

Let's Party

The mom of the little girl who is having a Princess party came by this morning and decided what she wanted for favors and invitations.  I had bought some Disney princess stamps for scrapbook pages and she really liked them so the invitation will use the Sleeping Beauty and the favors will have the dress.  She needed a box big enough to hold nail polish, nail stickers, EOS lip gloss and of course sweets so I made one up to show her and everything fit perfectly.  I hang on to most of my  retired dies just because I do a lot of parties, weddings, showers,ect and they have come in handy several times.  The pinks look like two different colors but they are both done in Blushing Bride, must just be how the camera caught it.  Thanks for stopping by!

Happy Birthday Princess

I booked a Princess Party over the weekend and couldn't wait to get started on it this morning.  This is going to be the invitation except the sentiment will be replaced with "you're invited".  I am also going to use it for my Punch class this week.  The Princess part of the sentiment comes from a retired set called Perfect Princess and the happy birthday is from Teeny Tiny wishes.  I used the retired dress framelit and cut out three and layered them together.  The sash is cut with the Chevron Border punch and the top of the dress is punched with the Festive Flower Builder Punch.

Playful Pals

Isn't this little Chickie adorable, I made it with the Pyramid die.  Thanks for stopping by!

Loads of Love

Do you hang on to or buy stamp sets for sentimental reasons ....I sure do.  I bought this stamp set, Loads of Love after my dad passed away in 2004 just because of the truck image.  He had a truck once just like this and in some crazy way when I ink this stamp up and color it I feel comforted by it.  Anyway...thanks for stopping by!

Love You, Papa Bear

I had such a busy Valentine season that I have just now got to ink up some of the new sets from the Occasions catalog.  I think this set is one that I will use a lot especially for masculine cards.   My favorite sentiment from the set is the "Love you, Papa Bear".  When Sadie was little my husband read to her every night and her favorite story was the Three Bears.  She started to call him "Papa Bear" and herself  "baby bear".  I showed her this card yesterday and told her about calling dad "Papa Bear" and she loved it and wants to give it to him for Fathers Day.  Thanks for stopping by!

Cups and Kettle

This month's Occasion's class is all about Get Well and Thinking of You cards.  For this card I used one of the cups from the Cups and Kettle Framelit dies along with  Birthday Bouquet DSP.  Thanks for stopping by!

Be Mine

I was looking for a Valentine treat for my kiddos to give to their Sunday School teachers and found this idea here.

I already had several boxes of Conversation Hearts left over from school projects so this was just perfect.

I wrapped the boxes in retired DSP and added the tag, I made 9 for Sunday School and a few more to use as favors for my Bible Journaling class tomorrow.  Thanks for stopping by!

It's a Boy!

I have another baby shower project to share today, this one for a boy.  It hadn't been but about 30 minutes since the other one was picked up when another person walked in my shop and wanted me to do her baby shower.  It is going to be a onesie shower so of course we had to put a onesie on the tags that will attach to the favors.  She wanted some bold colors and the baby boys initial on it.  I pulled out some retired papers and she chose these.

I have them all ready for the ribbon.  Thanks for stopping by!
