Thank You Cards

Happy Monday Peeps!!!

Hope you all had a fabulous weekend. It's really cold here but Wednesday it's going to start warming up for a couple of days, temp will be around 46 to 50 degrees, yeah!!!

I have some Thank you cards that I made in October. Don't know if you will be able to see the shimmer mist that I sprayed on them but they are really sparkly...click on the picture to make it larger & then you might just see it. It's hard to get it to show up when I take the pictures but they are really pretty in person.

Thanks for stopping by & spending a little part of your day with me. Have a great day & I'll see you again tomorrow.

Christmas Gift Card Holders

Hello peeps!

Here are the last of the Christmas projects I made for the holidays. I do have a few items that I made which have not been posted yet so come back next week for those.

Have a great weekend & thanks for dropping by!

Note: Someone asked if I put lipstick on & then kissed the cover to these cards...that made me laugh!!! No I did not. It's a stamp from SU, I think it's retired but I'm not sure.

SU Christmas Keepsake Gift Box

Good mornin' Peeps!

NOW I remember why I don't post so much anymore...I hate this NEW blogger set up, I can NEVER find anything anymore. I have a hard time finding the area where I'm supposed to post. It takes me awhile to find the location of things, not as easy as the old way & I get frustrated to easy but I AM determined even though I don't like the arrangement. Then as I'm typing, it's telling me the HTML is in error even though everything looks good on the post...I don't get it. Today I found an area that let me change something on the HTML, to something they call "Show HTML literally"...what the hell does that mean? So I'm giving that a try, ugh!!! Is this supposed to be easier??? I think not!!! Anyway, let me move on.

I bought these boxes from the SU clearance rack last February & put them together, that was soooo much fun! It's still in the clearance rack, it's called "Christmas Keepsake box & it's $11.97 (reg. price was $19.95), the only things I had to buy to finish off this project was the stamp set "Pines & Poinsettia's" which I already had(not sure if they retired that set, so it might not be available) & some spray adheasive for the glitter. I then put the boxes away in a plastic bin till I needed them. When the cookies arrived (they are individually wrapped) I wanted to see if they would fit in this box & they fit perfectly on their sides, I just added tissue paper. This box is the perfect sized for a scarf, a t-shirt, hat & so many other items if you want to give it a try. It comes with easy to follow instructions & there was a video with Shelli & her daughter making one, I used the video but I no longer have the link. If you ask a demo maybe she knows if its still on the SU Home page somewhere.

Tomorrow I will have some Gift card holders & a money card for you & that will be the end of my Christmas projects. I hope to see you back her tomorrow. Thanks for stopping by & have a great day! Stay warm everyone, it's freezing out there.

Date Night Gift Cards

Good mornin' Peeps!

Today I am sharing the Date Night gift card holders that I made for both Jessica & I to give to Marc & Sarah. Jessica told me that she wanted to do a dinner & a movie gift & I knew exactly what I wanted to do so I ordered the MFT At the Movies stamp & die set & got to work trying to figure out how I was going to make my vision in my head work when it hit me finally. I made it in two steps...I made the cards seperately (I made two 5 X 7 cards) then I adhered the backs together to make one card. I love it!!!

Well I hope you enjoy todays post, I will have another gift that I made for my kids tomorrow so come back & visit me. Have a good day & thanks for dropping by & visiting!

This image is an InStyle Anime stamp. Don't know if this company is still around or if they still sell Anime stamps, sorry.

This is the front of the card that I made for Jessica to give to Mark & Sarah.

First part of card has a gift card holder in the pocket with the chef on it & the other pocket holds a babysitting certificate. See 2 pictures below.

My good friend Sandi's husband Phil made this certificate for me...without him I could never have pulled this off the way I wanted it to look because I am not good at computer things like this. I emailed Sandi & asked if Phil could make something like what I wanted, one for me & one for Jessica & he came through with flying colors as always. I can really count on him whenever I need his help. Thanks again Phil, I appreciate it more than you know. Marc & Sarah loved it & said that it was an endless certificate & both Jessica & I agreed of course!

Jessica's card was a two part card, one side to dine out, flip to next page & you have the movie part. I put two cards together to make it as one. I love how it turned out!

My 2012 Christmas Cards

Good mornin' Peeps!

Happy New Year everyone...I hope you all have a happy & healthy 2013!

I know, I haven't blogged much, I'm so sorry. I just haven't been in the mood to create much lately...I don't know where my mojo went so if you find it PLEASE send it to me. I only worked on things that I HAD to get done for the holidays, I made a few Christmas cards...sorry to those of you who usually get a card from me but maybe next Christmas I'll get back into the swing of things. Today I am posting the cards that I did make, there aren't many, I made about 12 cards to mail out this year, I know shame on me, so here are the designs that I made.

Come back tomorrow to see some awesome Gift card holders that I made for my kids, I gave them gift cards for a Date Night!

Thanks to those of you who stick by me & have been with me for a long time even though I haven't been blogging much lately. I appreciate you all so very much! See you tomorrow.
