Jumbo Paper Clips!

While cleaning out my "junk" drawer I found some buried treasures!  Apparently, I stashed away a box of  jumbo paper clips and completely forgot about them.   Nothing like one's own junk becoming treasure!  Keeping with the "junk" theme, I pulled out my basket of  scrap paper and salvaged enough to create these really cute flowers! 


 Use them to keep your papers organized, as a bookmark in your daily calendar, or clipped to a note for a friend. 
They are super easy and fun to make and would make great gifts for co-workers, teachers, or anyone who likes pretty things!

Happy Tuesday!

Hello everyone!  I hope you all had a great weekend - and a wonderful start to your week.  Spring is finally here - at least it appears to be!  

I have been working on party favors with a little friend who will soon be turning seven!  She wanted something "girly", so this is what we came up with.  We created the purse using Amelie's Accessories SVG Kit - the pinafore dress invitation was created using "Shape Cards" from  My Scrap Chick.  



We raided my "stash" and found some really cute paper that I had completely forgotten about!  We created the adorable flower by using coordinating papers, and attached it to the purse with a matching brad.   We secured the handles with an eyelet using my Crop-A-Dile, and stamped the inside of the card with an "invitation stamp" (which, of course, I found in my "collection"!).

Ynessa can't wait to  fill in the blanks!!

I am as excited as Ynessa is for her birthday party!  
Her mama plans to fill the purses with nail polish, lipsticks & other sparkly, frilly girly stuff!!
We never get too old for all that "girly stuff" - do we??

A Girl Needs Her Shoes!

A friend of mine recently asked me to make fifty "shoe" cards in various colors.  I created the cards using Amelia's Accessories SVG Kit, and used contrasting embellishments to make each card unique. 
 
I tried to get a photo of all fifty "shoes", but there were just too many to fit into one frame!  I picked out a few of the sets to share!   


Thank you for stopping by!

Chicks Are Hatching!!

I have had so much fun creating these little Hatching Chicks Easter Baskets!  The svg is from Pepitos Room.  The chick is filled with crinkled colored paper, along with a few sweet treats!  Easter themed ribbon holds the "cracked" shell in place.  Attached are some Easter/Spring themed embellishments that I found in my stash!  The charm was made using Shrinky Dinks - then attached with a color coordinated brad.



Just a few more Chicks! 


 Thank you for stopping by!

Easter "Buckets"!

With EASTER just a few days away, my cricut has been working overtime! 
 A good friend asked if I could make Easter Baskets for her two little girls.  Here is what I put together!

 
I purchased Easter themed buckets from Target and filled them with shredded colored paper, then added "some sweet stuff"!  Both bunnies were created using svg files from the Easter Collection from Treasure Box Designs.  Pop-dots were used to attach the bunnies to the buckets. 
Simple gifts that I hope will bring big smiles!
