Birthday Goodie Bags #7, #8, and #9

Today I am going to share even more Birthday Goodie Bags.  I make these every year for our soccer team.  We had about 15 girls on our team this last season. I really like how many of them turned out, I hope you do too!


I used the TBBM cartridge for the purse
Paper is from Doodlebug, the balloon is a die cut that I had in my stash. The stamp is from Stampin' Up embossed with some blue embossing powder.  I used a blue marker to sguiggle the balloon string. I used Colorbox blue ink for the shading around the edges.  The blue ribbon is from my stash also.


This one was really pretty simple.  Paper is from Doodlebug, ribbon from my stash, stamp and ink from Stampin' up, flower punched with an old EK Success punch. I put a blue brad in the flower to finish it off. TBBM cartridge used to make the purse.


This bag was made using a stamp and espresso embossing powder from Stampin' Up.  A brown marker for the dots, ribbon from my stash, and paper from an SEI-Happy Day paper pad. Oh, and cut using the TBBM cartridge.

Thanks for visiting my blog today, I hope you enjoyed looking at my projects! I have just a few more bags to share and then I can show you what I made for Teacher Appreciation (that was months ago).

Soccer Team Birthday Bags #4, #5, and #6

Good morning to everyone out there.  Today I have a snippet of time to post these bags before I have to get to work on my inventory for my booth.  All these bags were really fun to make, and they were all cut using the TBBM cartridge.



For this red one I used a stamp set from TPC studio to make all the little circles. The other two stamps of the hat and the sentiment are from Stampin' Up.  The scalloped cirlce came from either a Stampin' Up punch or the mini-monograms cart (I can't remember which).  Then I used a white gel pen for the white dots.



The Sentiment stamp is from Fiskars-Cupcakes and More stamp set.  I believe I heat embossed the stamp and the chipboard buckle with some blue embossing powder that I got at a yard sale so I don't know what company it comes from.  The blue shading ink is from Stampin' Up, and ribbon from my stash.



I used the Stampin' Up punches for both the Scalloped Circle and the sentiment, both stamps are also from Stampin' Up.  I used  some embossed paper on the sides and the pool party ink over the emobossed paper and I also used the Pool Party embossing powder for the two stamps. Silver stickles are around the scalloped circle and I used some old silver twine/string to wrap around the bag.  I used some little gems on the sides of the sentiment punch.  The ribbon is from American Crafts.

I hope you enjoyed my creations today and I have many more to share with you.  I have still been taking pictures of everything as I have been completing all of my projects.  Thank you for visiting and come back soon! Don't forget to leave a comment and tell me what you think!

Scalloped circle, stamp and ink are Stampin' Up. Stickles for the glitter. Black glitter paper is from Coordinations, patterned paper is from my stash.


Paper is from the Colorbok Confetti paper pad, Stamp is from Close to my Heart. I used white embossing powder and the ribbon is from the $1 bin at JoAnn's.

"Birthday" was colored with Pro markers and then covered with glossy accents.

Huggable, Squeezable, Baby!

Good morning everyone, today I am sharing with you a gift card holder I made for a friend, who is also a soccer coach. We coach together, two seperate teams but we have combined practices.  She just had her first baby 2 weeks ago, it was a girl! 
I really liked how this turned out.  She was grateful, and thougth it was super cute too. 



Patterned paper is from the Nana's Nursery DCWV 6x6 pad
Cuttlebug-paisley folder
Fiskars border punch
ribbon is from JoAnn's
The sentiment is an old tag I made with some baby rub-ons.  I found it going through some old things as I was organizing some of my craft space. I thought it was so cute and had to use it for this gift card/money holder.  I hope you like it, let me know what you think!
