Note Cards

Here's a little gift I'm putting together for my daycare provider - her birthday iwas yesterday.

I used Pawsitively Prints DSP to make some notecards...


These are 3x3 and feature Bashful Blue, So Saffron, Pretty in Pink, Old Olive, whisper white and Certainly Celery colored ink, DSP and CS.  I used the Eggcellent Eggs kit (die cut border pieces and flowers with rhinestone centers) as well as the scallop trim border punch.  The stamp set is For All You Do.  I used the new bird punch as well as a Martha Stewart butterfly punch.  The inside greetings are from For All You Do and Whimsical Words. 
I'm going to place these in a cute little Top Note Die Purse - I'll show you that tomorrow :)

Sorry about the blurry photo.

Easy Peasy Birthday Card

This card came together super easy.  It is made with Sweet Pea DSP as the image featured on the front.  Colors are Old Olive, chocolate chip, bliss blue, whisper white and pretty in pink.  Stamp set (for the greeting) is well scripted (clear mount).
I like using the doubled sided DSP as my card base - it makes for a pretty interior of the card too!  I also used american crafts ric rac.

Easter Basket


Here's an Easter Basket using some of the new Occasions mini catalog produts.  This was something I saw on Create with Connie and Julie and was designed by Julie Dinn.
It features Ballet Blue, Pretty in Pink, whisper white and orchid opulence CS, Sweet Pea DSP, Pretty in pink ribbon and ink, Designer label and scallop border and scallop trim punch, Eggcoutrements stamp set (clear mount), flower brads, 1" and 1 1/4" circle punches, small and large tag punches and the crop-a-dile.
In this shot you can see the inside of the basket, with a place to carry your easter eggs so they will sit up nice and pretty.
Of course, I also used SNAIL, sticky strip, glue dots, paper trimmer, dimensionals and scissors.

Easter Peek - Revealed

Here is what was hiding in the Easter Treat Carrier I posted yesterday:


These are made with the mini-milk carton die in the Big Shot using Pawsitively Prints DSP, pinking hearts border punch, Eggcellent Eggs kit, spiral clips (to hold them closed),  glue dots and dimensionals.  Aren't they cute?  Perfect for easter goodies for the kids!

Here's a look at the spiral clips holding the cartons closed and in the treat carrier:


The carrier was made from the same papers as the cartons and I used the word window punch to make the handle.

Easter Peek

Here's part of a project I recently completed....I'll show you the rest tomorrow.  I got the pattern and idea from Create with Connie and Julies' Mary Brown (see my side bar on the left)
This is a little carrier for an Easter treat...it uses some of the new Stampin' Up! products available now.



This is the DSP pawsitively prints and the Eggcellent Eggs decorating kit - it includes die cut flowers, leaves and swirls along with rhinestones and rub ons - too cute!  I also used whisper white cardstock, wide oval, scallop oval and oval punches and the Eggcoutrements clear mount stamp set that I colored with a Stampin' Write marker.  Colors are pretty in pink, so saffron, pale plum, bliss blue, bashful blue and certainly celery. The ribbon is the new satin pretty in pink ribbon available.  Of course I also used dimensionals, SNAIL, paper trimmer, scissors and glue dots.
I'll leave you with this shot of what's coming tomorrow....
