Valentine Tag...



I am slowly getting back into the swing of things just like some of you other crafters out there. I received my order from the FEDEX man on Friday and was super excited to get cracking on some projects that are starting to creep up on me. Anyways, the first thing I came up with was this little tag for Valentine's day. Yes, it's still January, but I'm suppose to make 170 tags for my daughter's school PTO again. So as usual, I kept it simple and hopefully they will like it and know that it came from the heart! I used the following:

Punches: large oval, Scallop Trim Border
Stamp Set: Teeny Tiny Wishes, Short & Sweet
Paper: Real Red cs, Whisper White cs, Sending Love Specialty DSP
Ink: Pretty in Pink

I also had a chance to finish some other projects, but I can't show them to you just yet. Thanks for stopping by...

RAK From 1LuvnMama...



Yay! I was one of the lucky recipients of 1LuvnMama's adorable notepad and matching card set! The funny thing is that I received it the same day she received the Panda punch art address book that I sent! It was a total surprise, but so worth it since I was having a rough day. It sure brought smiles to my face. My hubby was cracking himself up when he brought in the mail. As he handed it over to me he said "To Sweet As A Gumdrop; From 1LuvnMama!" Yes, he has a weird sense of humor... but I guess I love him anyways.

Panda Punch Art Family...



After a suggestion from a little "mama," I created some panda babies. This is an address book that I decorated with a panda family for someone special. It is long overdue, but better late than never, huh? Hopefully she'll like it and will put it to good use! Okay, I think I'm done with pandas for a while... what should I work on next? You'll have to check back to see!

Panda Punch Art Favor...



This is my first craft project for the new year! It's been a little hard for me to get back into crafting because I took such a long break... but hopefully I'll be doing a bit more real soon!

For this project I used the Bag with Scallop die on some Bermuda Bay cs. Then I layered it with Basic Black cs and Thoroughly Modern DSP. I topped it off with my Panda punch art.

My Digital Studio Blog Header...



Just wanted to share with all of you my new blog header that I created using My Digital Studio. I've actually had this software for a while (I think from October), but I never had the time to sit down and see what it was all about. Jane did a demo at our last stamp camp and showed me the basic steps for it. I can proudly say that I finally sat down tonight to try it out and I love it! One of my goals for this new year was to start using My Digital Studio... guess I accomplished that goal...hehehe! Hope you like my new blogwear. I know it's simple, but I'm still learning. I didn't know how to use the MDS to create a background for my blog so I just used one that I found online. Anyone who knows how to create a background using MDS, please let me know. Thanks for stopping by...
