Sending Love Specialty Gift Card Holders...

Made these really quick gift card holders using the new DSP in the Occassions Mini Catalog... Sending Love Specialty. I also used the Petal Card die and the Scallop Trim Border punch. I attached these to a 5 1/2" x 8 1/2" cardstock folded in half so that I could stamp a sentiment or write a note inside.

Post-It Notes...

Here is another project that I was able to complete courtesy of my dear hubby. These are post-it notes that I decorated with some DSP and cardstock. I used the SU retired set Fun Faces and my handy, dandy punches to create the rabbit and the bear. I really love that stamp set. Too bad SU didn't come up with more of them...

OCS For Kyoko...

My OCS partner for this month is Kyoko. I tried to incorporate purple into her card since I know that it's her favorite color. I used some Cottage Wall DSP, Rich Razzleberry cs, Old Olive grosgrain ribbon, my sizzix dies (Two Tags, Scallop Circle #2, Beautiful Wings Embosslits), and my punches (Scallop Circle, 1 3/8" Circle, 1 1/4" Circle). I also used my paper crimper for the belly band! This was my first time making a double pocket card and it turned out to be easier than I thought it would be.

Another Use For Build-A-Bear...

I was lucky enough that my hubby let me have the "day off" to craft at home all day while he took the girls with him to run errands. Here is one of the projects that I was able to complete which was inspired by Shirley's wonderful notepad that she gave me for Christmas. I wanted to use my Build-A-Bear die, but I didn't want a bear on the notepad cover. So in the same way that I created my Gingerbread Man, I came up with this little girl. I cut off a small part of the bear's head and attached a circle instead and the rest is history. Hope you like my creation!

Build-A-Bear Packet...

I decided to put together this build-a-bear packet for 1LuvnMama so that she can use them to create with. All I had to do was cut out some bears and ran a few DSP through the big shot so that she would have different clothes to dress these bears up. Can't wait to see what she comes up with! Happy Friday! Yay! The weekend is finally here!

Card for a Dear Friend...

This is the card I made for a friend who is going through some rough times right now. I hope this puts a smile on her face even if it's just for a minute. I just wanted her to know that we are thinking of her and keeping her and her family in our thoughts and prayers!

Another Sewing Kit...

This is the January bonus project that I designed for Craft Project Central. It is another version of a sewing kit that I came up with.
