Just Hatched Baby Gift

Hi everyone, it's another 2 Cute Tuesday!!

I've made an adorable little gift box to give as a baby gift and used Easter Egg Chickie digi image.  You can get your's here. This digi image comes 2 different ways, with the eggs left plain or decorated.  You get both for the price of one!!  The undecorated eggs are perfect to use for baby cards and projects.

The box is a PTI template designed by Lauren Meader called Rounded Wrap Up, and the polka dot paper is more digi paper from Lauren Meader at My Time Made Easy.  I printed the digital paper on both sides so that the inside of the box has a finished look as well.  The overlaid DP is DCWV Nursery.  I finally used a little fabric covered brad in the center of the flower that I've had for years now!!  I love when I actually use some of the stuff that I've had sitting around forever, don't you?

Teacher Thank You's

Hi Everyone!

With a little over 2 weeks before school is over here in sunny Florida,  I've been busy making a few Teacher Thank You cards.  My step-children will be giving these to their teachers next week along with a little gift.  Check back next week for a look at the gift, it's going to be super cute!!

I LOVE my PaperTrey Ink, Vintage Picnic Basket stamp set.  (I really don't play with my PaperTrey stamps enough.)  I decided to do a paper piecing for the basket on a green patterned paper that I had in my scraps.  The yellow polka dot paper is digital paper from My Time Made Easy, the other DP paper, buttons, twine, sentiment, and ribbon are all from PaperTrey Ink.

I added shadows on the green patterned paper with my C1 Copic Marker to give it depth. And used my Ek Success Binding Edge Border Punch...perfect for teacher cards and school related projects.

Quick. Simple. Done.  If they were all only that easy right?

This card is for the following challenges:

MelJen's Designs = #8 Seeing Spots
Ooh La-La-Creations #54 Bright & Cheerful
Practical Scrappers Patterned Paper
Crazy Challenge - Something New (Border Punch)
Crafty Creations = #68 Encouragement/Celebration

Mother/Daughter Tea

Wow, has it really been a week since I last posted?  I've just been spending time with the kids and trying out some new things, like digital patterned paper.  This little note card box is the Card Catch All from Lauren Meader at My Time Made Easy.  While I was buying the template I was checking out her digital paper and decided it give it a try.  WOW!  It was so fun and easy to do.  I even made my own double sided paper to make this box!  I'm now obsessed with digital paper and have spent too much crafting time scouring the internet for more paper.  LOL

My daughter Brooke and I will be attending a Mother/Daughter Tea at the church and I'm going to donate this set for their silent auction.  I'm working on another set but with a different theme that I might donate as well.  This little project was so much fun to do and I think it would make a great gift.
