Welcome to the world

Good morning all, I can't believe it has been like a week since I posted last.  I'm sorry. It is just crazy around here. 
I have a friend who just gave birth and I made a card for her to go with a simple gift.  She is a very simple person.  So I made my card simple.  I think it turned out cute.  Hope she likes it.



Cartridge: B is for boy

Thank you to all who have commented recently on my blog.  I love to read them all, and they just make my day!

Well, tomorrow is my card swap group and for this month and next month we will be doing Christmas cards.  I love making my own homemade christmas cards for family.  I am excited to get some different ideas from these other ladies.  Let me share with you my idea. 



you can't tell in the picture but I used smooch spritz (vanilla shimmer) on the black paper just to give it a subtle sparkle.

MPS-Pinkalicious Blog Hop Challenge

This month over at My Pink Stamper we were challenged to do a goodie bag or 3-d item for a holiday or occasion.  This was right up my alley!  I love making goodie bags.  Since Halloween is right around the corner of course I chose that for my holiday.  I couldn't decide exactly what to do since I had a lot of different things I wanted to try.  So I made a couple of different ones for some friends.  Hope you like them!




Cartridges: TBBM, Plantin Schoolbook, Happy Hauntings
Paper and ribbon are from my stash
sentiments are hand written
SU ink for shading

Thanks for visiting,  Hope you all have a great day!

Good day to you all,  I made this treat bag for a friend of mine.  I borrowed her stamp set a while ago and need to get it back to her.  I thought I would make her something with it as a thank you for sharing with me.  I think it turned out really cool, let me know what your thoughts are.

Hey Pumpkin!

How is everyone this morning?  I wanted to share with you my first Halloween treat bags of the season, because there are many more to come.  I really liked how these turned out.  I made them for my visiting teachers.  They are coming over this morning and neither of them really like Halloween, so I just did a simple pumpkin with fall/halloween colors.   Enjoy!
