Easter Blessings

This is going to be a crazy week and I can't believe I waited until now to get all my Easter Treats done...I made Carrot Boxes filled with Candy, Treat Bag with a candy filled Triangle Bunny sitting in edible Easter grass and along with jelly beans that look like robin eggs...project completed with a Easter Basket Card. I used the Flower Pot Tutorial and just tweaked it to fit my basket.(http://www.splitcoaststampers.com/resources/tutorials/flowerpotpocket)

This will probably be my last post for the week as the craziness of the week will begin.

Top Note Purse

I've been meaning to make these Top Note Purses for awhile now....they are so much fun! I found an awesome tutorial on Inking Idaho's Web site, found here that I had to share....
http://inkingidaho.blogspot.com/2009/03/top-note-purse-instructions.html I copied the colors of her purse as I love the hot pink with the black/white. The next purse I made with our new Sweet Pea Designer Paper. I plan on making a few more to have on hand for fun quick gift giving. Enjoy!

Welcome Home

The title says it all...Welcome Home! May is national scrapbook month and I'm planning ahead so I can get this "Welcome Home" scrapbook completed. I thought I would share the cover with you. I used the "Good Neighbors" stamp set out of the Sale-a-Bration Catalog. This is a fun little set and I love the matching 6x6 paper pack....too bad I made this scrapbook 8x10?? It is hard to see the clouds I sponged on because of the lighting, but you get an idea. I'll bind the scrapbook together with the bind it all when I have it completed. (More pictures to follow on how it works) Hope everyone has a great week!

Luck of the Irish

It's my lucky day, I'm finally getting around to not only completing a project....I'm posting it in the same day. Yeah! I'm not a bit Irish, but I find St. Patrick's Day a fun holiday to celebrate, (I think I'm drawn to the green beer) this year I made Leprechauns for the kids to take to school and my first ever St. Patrick's Day card. Hope you find a pot of gold at the end of your rainbow....
