Gift From Jeri

I went to Jeri's this afternoon. She gave me these magnets. I LOVE THEM! They both...ahem...hit home, lol!

Gift From Jody

Jody got me these for my birthday, and I keep forgetting to put them on my blog. Until now. I love these gifts - aren't they fitting for me???

Double Line Doodles Card

Jody and I made these a couple months ago and I forgot to add them to my blog. All is Stampin Up! except the "C" Chipboard piece, the buttons, the black brad, and the ribbon. All that stuff is from Archivers.

She's All That Altered Journal

Jody was over a few weeks ago and we made these altered journals. I made the top one and she made the bottom one as a door prize for her baby shower.
Stamp Set: She's All That (mini catty 08 - retired)
Paper: Berry Bliss DP, Close to Cocoa, Very Vanilla (in bottom circle)
Ink: Chocolate Chip
Accessories: Nestabilities Die Cut, SU chocolate chip ribbon (from mini catty), pretty in pink taffeta ribbon, very vanilla grosgrain, hodgepodge hardware, glue stick, spiral punch.

Disney Notebooks

My lovely niece was here a few weekends ago and we had a craft night. We made these altered Disney notebooks, because she loves all things Disney (understatement). Aren't they cute? I am sorry to say that we didn't use much Stampin Up stuff, though *gasp*!!! Well...she wanted to use these Disney stickers she bought at Target - so we worked around the stickers. Then we bought most of the paper at Target, I believe it was Making Memories. Although, we did use Stampin Up Cerise DP on Mickey, and Kraft with Cool Caribbean on Ariel. We also used the Alphadots Stampin Up stamp set with all SU ink. The notebooks were also from Target (Mead). So we started with the notebooks, cut the paper to size, used sticky tape to adhere, and then we embellished the fronts. Enjoy.

Photos From My Very 1st Make & Take - Wa Hoo!

THANK YOU, thank you, thank you - to all of you who attended my VERY FIRST make-and-take! I am just thrilled with the turn out and the response. I felt like everyone enjoyed it (hopefully) - and that is all I can ask for. I am planning another one for August - so stay tuned. I will post the date as soon as I know anything. Suggestions are always welcome too, especially if there is something you'd like to make in the future. *HUGS*

Gift Bag for Dad - Friendly Flowers

Here is a gift bag I made tonight. Eli and I got dad some fishing lures (sort of a very late Father's Day gift), and I thought I should make a gift bag instead of buying one. Well, we were at Target tonight, and I still bought a pack of these gift sacks for $3.99 (I think) for 9 of them (I think) (something like that) - but I altered it with my Stampin Up stuff (as you can see). Boy I wish I had the new scallop border punch. That would have made the top of the bag look really neat. Well, I'll do another one when that comes in, but with a different stamp set, probably. Enjoy!

May Shoe Box Swap - Friendly Flowers Card

This was the card I designed for the May 30th Shoe Box Swap (my VERY FIRST shoe box swap - how exciting)! I forgot to put this on my blog back in May. The swap went off without a hitch! I was so excited! I cased this idea off Split Coast - but I changed the bottom bit to a designer label and then I changed the background - that is about all I changed. I love this card because it sorta reminds me of an antique quilt. Sorta homey. I sponged around all the ivory edges to give it a distressed look.

Stamp Set: Friendly Flowers (Retired, 08 Mini Catalog)
Ink: Chocolate Chip (how easy is that)
