EASTER BASKET

Thought I'd work on gift ideas for some of my co-workers and created this basket today. The basket is Whisper White c/s and the handle is Certain Celery c/s. I created the ruffle look on the handle with White Taffeta ribbon and embellished the basket with the Eggcelent Eggs Kit from the Occasions Mini. This kit also included the adhesive-backed rhinestones! Before I put the basket together I punched the edges with the Scallop Trim Border Punch from the Sale-a-Bration mini, remember, it's FREE!! Thanks for visiting!
I tried to angle this picture so you could see more of the scallop edge.

ANOTHER EASTER CARD SHARE

Hey Friends! Sharing another Easter card today. I just received my new Textured Impressions Folder, SUp! Perfect Polka Dots (Occasions Mini) and knew it would really set this design off. The card base is Chocolate Chip c/s, layered with Pretty in Pink c/s that was put through the Big Shot with the textured folder. The ribbon is Certain Celery and Chocolate Chip satin, both also in the Occasions Mini. Stamp sets used are Vintage Labels from the SAB mini, which was punched using the SUp! Scallop Punch and the sentiment is from the Teeny Tiny Wishes stamp set. This card has a simple look about it that I love but the Impressions Folder gives it that OOMPH that we all like in our paper crafting. Thanks for visiting!

GOOD NEIGHBORS

This cute stamp set can be yours FREE! It's the Good Neighbors stamp set in our Sale-a-Bration catalog, but the dsp is ALSO available as a Sale-a-Bration freebie. It's called Welcome Neighbor. Sale-a-Bration ends March 31st, until that time you can select one FREE item for every $50 order you place. Click here to see the Sale-a-Bration mini catalog. For the card base I used Pumpkin Pie c/s, then used Old Olive as a layer on the dsp and the stamped images on the Whisper White is layered on Chocolate Chip c/s. Thanks for visiting!

EASTER CARD

Time for another Easter card sharing. The card is Old Olive c/s and the dsp is Shades of Spring (Occasions Mini). The stamp set is Abundant Hope, I stamped the flowers on a Sending Love Note Hug (Stamp set and Hug from Occasions Mini). What I love about this flower stamp is that you can just ink and stamp or you can color in the flowers and leaves after you stamp, giving them more contrast. This Abundant Hope stamp set is so beautiful! You won't be sorry if you order it! Thanks for visiting!

DSP PRETTY ENOUGH TO FRAME!

I was creating a card with our Sweet Pea dsp (Occasions Mini) and was once again impressed with the beauty of this packet of paper! I realized I could actually frame some of these beautiful pages for my home, office or as a gift. So that's just what I did! I bought several of these frames at a discount store last year and still had a couple on hand. After cutting the dsp and putting it in the frame I decided to add some some Chocolate Chip ribbon and Sweet Pea Stitched Felt flowers (Occasions Mini). I am very happy with how this came out; I made it for a gift but I have the perfect little corner on my desk at work for it...hm-m-m-m, what to do!! Thanks for visiting!

GET READY FOR EASTER PROJECTS!

Okay, I've begun my Easter projects so get ready for the cards, scrapbook pages and 3D projects! Here's my first card post, it's 5 1/4 x 5 1/4 and it fits perfectly in our 5 1/2 x 5 1/2 envelopes. I used Pretty in Pink for the card and a strip of Shades of Spring dsp from the Occasions Mini. I used a "Kiss" note and small square glassine envelope for the sentiment, the sentiment and flower stamps are from the Abundant Hope stamp set; I then added a Pretty in Pink epoxy brad. Like the dsp; the "Kiss" note, glassine envelope, epoxy brad, and stamp set are all from the Occasions Mini. Thanks for Visiting!

ALTERED COMPOSITION BOOK

Today I began piano lessons! I KNOW!!! I wanted to challenge myself to learn something new before I turn 60 in December so Krystle, a young lady and co-lead on our Worship team is teaching me. What fun! So I had to show up for my first lesson with a notebook and ready to learn and take notes. Well really, I can't come with a regular composition book so here is what I created. I took many notes and I'm looking forward to playing Twinkle-Twinkle Little Star! LOL! The dsp is Razzleberry Lemonade. Thanks for visiting!
