Quick & Easy Tags...

First of all, thank you for all the well wishes for our cat. She seems to be doing better, but still not 100%.

Here are some gift tags that I was able to create this weekend. Yes, even with our busy weekend schedule, I was able to squeeze in some craft time. I think I really needed it! LOL! Crafting is definitely something that helps me relax, so I am very thankful when I can find the time to squeeze in any crafting time. Thanks for stopping by today. I hope that you have a great work week! Until next time...

Where has the time gone?

I can't believe it's been such a long time since I last posted. I guess you could say that life caught up with me and blogging (& crafting) was put aside... again. But I'm finally back to show you a little project that I was able to work on this week. I made these tags using various punches and the stamp set Every Little Bit. The to and from stamp is from the retired set Tiny Talk and the sentiment from the box is also from the retired set small sayings. I'm so happy that I have something to share with you today. Hope it inspires you to get crafting...

MY CATS for June...

Here is what I created for my partner Elena for our June CATS. I used my PM digis to make the card & tag. I also used it to make a matching post-it note holder. I'm sorry, but it's been a long weekend and I can't even remember what type of card this was called. I'll call it a window card. LOL! The card stands alone and I punched a hole in the front to make the window. I used a piece of window sheet for the punched area and added some butterflies since the theme for this month was butterflies. I hope Elena enjoyed receiving this set in the mail. Thanks for stopping by!

Hello Kitty Tags...

I took a short break from my PM digis to make these Hello Kitty gift tags... nothing fancy. I will be making goodie bags for my daughters and their hula sisters when they participate in this years Keiki Hula Competition. These tags will definitely come in handy!

CATS May...

Here is my card and tag that I created for this month's CATS (card and tag swap). The theme this month was to use the color combo orange, pink, and yellow. When I read that, the first thing that came to mind was sherbert ice cream. So I took out my Cricut and used the Simply Charmed cartridge to cut out these ice cream cones. I hope my partner will like these! Thanks for stopping by. Have a great week!

Tags For Cami...

These are the tags that I made for my wonderful partner Cami! She always talks about my punch art, so I decided to incorporate them into my tags. I made some Santa & Reindeer tags and a Christmas tree box to hold the tags! Cami, I hope you liked your tags!

PTO Tags...

Being part of the Teacher Appreciation Committee over at my daughter's school, I volunteered to make tags again for the teacher's Christmas gifts. Actually, I volunteered to make all the tags for the entire school year. For the Christmas tags, I needed to make 170! Of course, I kept it simple since I was making so much... and didn't want to get bored. I had a little help from my little elves... oops, I mean daughters...hehehe! For these tags I used the scallop envelope die; punches: scallop circle, 1 3/8 circle, 1 1/4 circle; and the reindeer from the Sparkly & Bright set. I also added some glitter to Rudolph's nose. Thank you to all the teachers over at my daughter's school... you know who you are! We really appreciate all the hard work you put in to teaching our children!

Thanksgiving Tags...

These are some tags that I made to go along with some handmade gifts for the teachers up at my daughter's school. They work so hard each day and I wanted them to know that we are thankful for having them in our lives! Happy Thanksgiving...

Halloween Tags...

These are some Halloween tags that I made in my attempt to get a head start on some Halloween projects. I used the retired set Sweeter Treaters and the colors Gable Green/Pumpkin Pie. Coloring these images was so relaxing that I think I might just make some more!

Garden Greetings

Here are pictures of a thank you card and tags that I made using the Garden Greetings stamp set.

Card:
There is actually a pocket on the inside of the card. It will hold a gift card for a special person who has helped my daughter's hula halau in preparation with the competition. It's hard to see in the picture, but I actually layered the flowers using dimensionals and also added some dazzling diamonds glitter. Guess I need to learn to take better pictures...

I belong to the PTO Teacher Appreciation Committee at my daughter's school and volunteered to make 160 tags. These tags will be attached to a "Welcome Back to School" gift for all the teachers and staff at my daughter's school. They have some of the best teachers there!
