SHAKE...SHAKE...SHAKE...

...TAG and CARD...

 Happy Tuesday Everyone!  Hope you all enjoyed a long weekend.  I had Monday off as it was Memorial Day!  This is a very short week for me.  I am off to Vegas at the end of this week.  A long and deserved vacation!  I can't wait!!!  Well as you can see I created a shaker tag for a dear friend who will be sworn in on Friday, June 1st @ the Supreme Court.  Congrats Jessica!!!  I attached it to a lei.  Purple is her favorite color...just like mine!  Hope she likes it!

Next card is for a graduate from Kamehameha.  Her party was this past Monday.  I created a shaker card with the same cutie...Cheeky Geeky!  I also created one more, but forgot to take a picture of it, but it was just like this one...only pink :)

I hope I can post one more thing before I leave.  I am making something to give to my family.  We have a family reunion every year in Vegas...that's why we are going!  Thought that I should use my talent and share with my family some handmade goodies!  Thanks for stopping by.  Have a gorgeous week everyone!

Be Blessed,

...MINI POST-IT-NOTES...

 Happy Tuesday Everyone...The month of May is almost gone and we are heading into summer!  I am very busy with trying to get some projects done.  My daughter will be graduating from 6th grade tomorrow 5/30/12 and I decided to make each teacher that Taelyn had from Kindergarten to present and her special counselor who has helped us through the years (especially this year) a special basket of handmade gifts.  I think this is the last of what I will be making...lol!  I wanted to use my small post-it-notes, but I decided to use two of them side by side.  Here's all 8 of them...

 here's how I decorated the cover...I added some flower and ribbon. 

 this is what it looks like once it's open...

So this is the final set...I used all matching DP :) 

 I made a shaker checkbook cover, bind-it-all notes, a credit card holder and the mini post-it-notes.

I hope the teachers enjoy their gifts!  We (my daughter and I) have been truly blessed by Kaneohe Elementary School...the teachers, students and staff have been so kind and we are going to miss them dearly!  Thank you for all the support!  (2005-2012)...here we go to bigger and better experiences!

Have a BEAUTIFUL week!

Be Blessed,

Shaker Fun...

 ...TGF-CHEEKY GEEKY...

Happy Monday everyone!  Hope you all had a wonderful weekend!  I sure did!  Here's one more shaker checkbook cover I made for a dear friend.  I decided to use TGF's cheeky geeky again, but I used the one I colored and keep her at the original size.  This one was really colorful and fun to make as well.  I hope she liked it.  I love this one...too cute!

Well...like I promised, I took some pictures at my daughter's May Day...
here is the May Day court...

here's a picture of Kela and Taelyn...they had to dress like the 70s for their performance.

Thanks for stopping by today...have a wonderful week!  My daughter is graduating on Wednesday.  got lots to do before this day comes.  hope I finish them all and then I can share with you!

Shaker Checkbook Covers...

...CHEEKY GEEKY...

Happy Thursday!  My how time flies.  I have been so busy with life that I rarely have time to post!  I wanted to share with you some shaker check book covers that I made for Taelyn's teachers.  I have decided to give each teacher that Taelyn had from kindergarten to sixth grade and her counselor something special to remember her by.   I found some pretty DP and then went from there for the colors to use.  I just bought this cutie from TGF.  Her name is Cheeky Geeky.  Isn't she so cute!  I colored one image and scanned her to my computer, made her a little smaller and then printed them out.  I added my beads, ribbon and some half pearls and I am done!  Here's all of them that I made...

here's a close up of the brown one...

 

here's the orange one...

Taelyn will be graduating from 6th grade soon.  My baby will no longer be a baby!  She's leaving elementary school behind and soon will become a teenager!  Wow!  In my heart she will always be my baby!  Thanks for stopping by!  Have a wonderful weekend!  Tomorrow is my daughter's May Day program.  Hope to share some pictures from that :)

Till next time...Keep Crafting!

Petite Purse...

...HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY...

from one mother to another...lol!  I was blessed by a friend who got me the SU die for this purse.  It is so cute and you can make two of these on a 12" x 12" DP.  I got my paper from Ben Franklin.  It's double sided too, so when you open it's pretty inside :)  I'm sorry I didn't take a picture of what it looks like when it's opened.  It's a really small purse, but it could hold a couple pieces of candy.  Here's what one looks like...

Here's the first batch of purses I made.  I will have to make a few more...like 20!  so my total will be about 50-60.  I know...I have to mass produce on certain occasions because of my soccer team, co-workers, friends, family & mom's friends too!

Happy Mother's Day to all you MOTHERS!!! 

Be pampered, loved and blessed today and everyday! 

Our jobs are never ending and we should be treated like royalty every day!

Be Blessed,
