Chocolate Purse

What every lady loves...

purses and

CHOCOLATE!

Tucked inside are 

TWO

Ghirardelli Chocolates.  

(Inspired by Brenda Quintana.)

Shabby Chic

Love the 

shabby chic 

look of this card.


(Inspired by Carrie Gaskin.)

Hearts a Flutter

I love the Flower Trim 

found in the new

Spring Catalog.

So romantic looking.

I also love the new 

Hearts a Flutter die-cut Framelits

that I used for the

ruffled heart.

The stamp set is 

Teeny Tiny Wishes,

and the card stock and 

seam binding ribbon is in

Rose Red.

HOO Loves You?

Owls are so popular these days,

so why not make some

'Love Owls'?

No stamping involved, 

just punches!

The punches I used are:

2 1/2" Circle, 1" Circle, Itty Bitty Circle,

Small Heart, and Petite Pennants Punch.

The Adorning Accents Embossing Edgelits.

They fit perfectly in a 

3 1/8" X 3 1/8"

Mini Envelope.

How cute to slip into a lunch bag?

HOO loves you?

One last look at Christmas

Yes, it's a new year,

(Happy New Year everyone!)

but I received so many pretty 

hand-stamped cards for

Christmas

that I wanted to show them off.

Thanks to all.

Happy New Year!

Here's to a happy and safe

New Year!

Time for a new calendar!

No stamping at all!

Slip into a CD Case,

wrap it with a ribbon 

and count the months 

until Summer!

Sunflower Thank You

Addiction to Punch Samplers

A gift from my sister, Penny Thomas.

Winter theme.

Another beauty by Penny.

Spooky Halloween.

I used a wedding invitation to made a special gift.

I guess you could say I am now hooked on these 

amazing samplers. 

You would think it would be hard to come up with

ideas to fill such a tiny square,

only 1 3/8"!

But it's really fun to try!

I am participating in a 

Valentine's Day Sampler swap,

so stay tuned to see more!

2" wide by 1" deep and with his antlers 4 1/2" high.

You can fit two or three little flat mints inside.  

How cute is he?

Tasty Little Gift

I saw this idea on 

Pinterest

and thought it was just too cute 

to pass up.

I whipped up a batch of

Texas Roadhouse Butter,

(recipe on Pinterest),

and placed some in these adorable

little jars.

Added some Christmas cuteness,

put it in a little box with a tag

and 

now I have a 

tasty little gift.  

Pilgrim Card

I didn't get this made in time for 

Thanksgiving.

But I thought it was so cute

I wanted to show it to you.  

The collar is made with the 

Bigz Clear Large Scallop Square.

Isn't it cute?
