Awwww Thanks...

...YOU ARE TOO SWEET...

Happy Hump Day everyone!  Hope your weekend went well and that your week is going smoothly.  This will be a short post, but I wanted to share this card with you that I made for my brother.  He was going to a 1st birthday for a little girl and so I made it into a pink and brown shaker card.  I used my reverse wonky rectangles for the window, added my beads, some crocheted ribbon, bling and a cute sentiment.  I even decorated the inside, but I forgot to take a picture of that...sorry.

Well that's it!  Hope you have a beautiful day!  As we see all this violence in the world going on around us...Please make sure to hug each other, tell them you love them and just cherish every moment as we can't seem to forget...LIFE is TOO SHORT, so don't take anything for granted.

BIG HUGS from ME to YOU!!!

Be Blessed,

Time for School...

...BEAN COLLECTION...
 Happy Friday Everyone!  I wanted to share a couple composition books with you today.  My daughter will be starting 7th grade soon...my baby is growing up!  But she still wants me to decorate her covers, so I am happy.  I decided to use TGF bean collection for these ones.  The first one I used is called: Shiny Bean.  I colored her with my copics, used some pretty DP paper, used a border punch, added some crocheted ribbon and used my nesties...here's the first one!

This one is the second book I covered.  This one is using Glimmer Bean and Shimmer Bean.  Did the same thing for this one.  I am pretty happy with the way it turned out!

Thanks for stopping by today.  I hope you have a wonderful weekend!  Enjoy the time you have with family and dear friends!
till next time...Take care!

Shaker Sets...

 ...HAPPY 4TH OF JULY...
 I hope you are spending this time with family and friends!  I am down at the beach right now...having fun with my family, but I did want to share with you what I have been working on.  Every year we have an annual neighborhood watch dinner and we also have a grab bag exchange with whoever wants to participate.  So I try to make our gifts original and handmade.  So this year I came up with the shaker checkbook cover w/ matching pen, a shaker easel post-it-note and a mini post-it-note.  For both sets I used images from Lili of the Valley.  This set I used "Maisie Two Balloons".

This set used "Milly me and my dog".  I love the DP I picked up at J's Knicknacks the other day.

Have a wonderful week everyone!  Be safe and remember to ENJOY LIFE!!!  Soak it all in and LIVE IN THE MOMENT!!!

Be Blessed,

You make my whole face smile :)

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

Hello Everyone!  My mom gets together with her friends once a month and I decided to make something for them.  Usually I only make for special occasions, but I was in the mood to create, so I did.  I knew I wanted to use my mini post-it-notes, but as for what I wanted to make, well that was something else.  I decided to use my Nesties the Reverse Wonky Rectangles to create this.  I made 12.

here's what a single one looks like.  I added a sentiment and some crochet trim.

 

this is what it looks like once it's open.  I used mini velcro dots to hold it close.  I hope the ladies enjoy it!

Thank you for being so supportive and for stopping by!  I really appreciate the sweet comments and that you are truly dear friends who visit me even when I am MIA!
Keep Smiling :)

Be Blessed,

...OWL YOU READY FOR THE WEEK?...

Happy Monday Everyone!  Can you believe it's July already?!  Wow, time really does fly by.  Well I had a chance to create this weekend and so I wanted to finish up a few things.  I also had a chance to stop by J's Knicknacks and picked up a few things.  I found this cutie!  I am not into owls, but this one was so kawaii...so I got it.  I turned this pull out card into...what else...a shaker!!!  LOL!  I used my dahlia nesties for the window, added my color beads from martha stewart and added that cute sentiment.

here's what it looks like when you pull up the ribbon and out comes...the goodie I stashed in it!

Have a WONDERFUL week...
