Preschool Teacher Gifts…

Very simple & very quick Preschool Teacher Gifts. I bought 2 Starbuck’s Mugs that say “Inspire” on them which I thought was very appropriate for teacher’s. I got them for 50% off so that was a bonus, I had some polka dot cello bags that I filled with Mint Rosebuds (yummy!), tied with some ribbon [...]

Page keeper…

I love Alli’s new stamp set called “Garden of Life” which can be found here.
When Alli’s new stamp set was released she had sneek peaks on her blog & this page keeper was one of them & directions can be found here.
Alli’s look’s better of course using white ink, mine is very subtle!!!

Summer Picnic Gratitude Box…

 
I made this box with 6 cards & matching envelopes when looking for ideas for my workshop on Friday night, I actually made about 4-5 different boxes, etc before settling on a smaller one, I was really struggling this week not just creatively but, also it seemed like everything I touched ended up being ruined!  In [...]

3×3 Berry Bliss Card Box…

 
My hubby “kindly” pulled out our 7 year old 2 mega pixel Nikon camera (that has seen 10,000 pics!)  so that I could post some pics as it was driving me crazy to not be able to post my projects, it only took me 3 tries to get a “decent” pic!!! Camera’s still in the shop.
This is what we [...]
