Extra Special gum wrapper

 I was asked by a friend to come up with an idea to wrap up some EXTRA bubble gum. I made about 100 of these papers. Luckily I did not have to put them all together. I did all the tape for the church ladies to put them together easily.

Reusable Bag Gifts

I was a step ahead of CA craziness on this one! I made my family all reusable bags for Christmas and now CA has a no plastic bag law so lucky timing.

 I used my Cameo and just love how these came out.

 These are small bags to hold toys for my nephews.

Male birthday cards

Hello all my wonderful followers! I have missed you dearly. I am so sorry I have been MIA but my focus has changed to the cutest little demanding red headed girl. I will be crafting here are there and will be back in full force some day soon.

Here are a few things I have made lately...

 I used Stampin Up stamps on this card. I played with the lines of the paper on this one.

 U had fun making a pin wheel type of focal point on this one.

I hope you all like these cards and don't give up on me! I will post as much as possible.

TSB Birthday Cupcake

This week on The Stamping Boutique the challenge is Recycling Supplies.
 It is a bi weekly challenge so you have two weeks to enter.

I recycled my paper scraps.I have tons of them! I love paper!

Audrey is my favorite TSB stamp. She has many different stamps available. This one is Audrey with a cupcake. I colored her with Copics and added some sparkle with Stickles.

I always like to decorate and stamp the inside as well. This is a MSE stamp set I got awhile back.

 Here are two very simple cards I made. The top one is a great way to use up some scraps.

The bottom card was a simple card I made to send over seas. Something quick and easy. The Sentiment is Jaded Blossom.

TSB Audrey Bday Card

Well today is my birthday so I thought I would share one of my favorite images to play with. I made this card for my niece. We happen to love the same colors so yay me. 

 I just love these papers together.

 My favorite girl Audrey is back again! This is Audrey with a cupcake. I colored her with Copics and added some Stickles for some shine.

 The inside I made a pocket for a little art project my baby painted to give to my niece. She loves the!

 Here is the cute bookmark.

I hope you are all enjoying this best day of the year :)

Male Thank You Card

 Here is a simple male thank you card I whipped up. I used a Stampin Up stamp on the front.

 Keeping it simple is hard for me. I find it sooooo boring but lets face it, thats what men are, lol.

The inside is a Jaded Blossom sentiment.

Male Pinwheel Bday Card

 I felt a little creative and tried making a pinwheel with a few different layers of paper. I like how it came out. Something different for me.

Here is the inside. I used a birthday sentiment set that I just got. I believe it is MSE but I am too lazy to get up and go check.
Summer break is about over for me then back to school, boo. I have been having the best summer. Hope you all have too.

IS Birthday Hymn Girl

This image is Hymn Girl Ornaments. I love her because she has option for what you want to put in her hand.

The sentiment is another Inspired Stamp, a single happy birthday cupcake. I added a little color with my Copics and some sparkle with Stickles.

Fathers Day Art

 My baby girl did some painting to make these cards.

 This one is for her daddy. Clean and simple just the way he likes it. The inside is below.

Here she is opening her card with her daddy.

 This one is for her Papa. A little messier and fun like him.

She had fun painting until she put the paint in her eye. I made the scrapbook page above to add to her scrapbook.

Birthday Balloons

 Hello lovely followers and visitors. I just want to say thanks to my followers for not leaving me over this last year. I have lost about 25 followers which makes me incredibly said. I worked so hard to build up my crafty following and love all your comments and visits but with a new baby I have been slow with the posts and not crafting much. I am hoping I feel the inspiration to craft over summer break.

 Any who here is a cute birthday I whipped up. I embossed the white paper and then added some cute DP. The balloons are an embellishment I have had for a long time that way a sticker on the back to attach them. The sentiment is a Stampin Up stamp.

I hope you enjoy my post and I hope to have more soon.

Orange B day card

Here is a Springy birthday card I want to share with you all! I embossed the background then used some ornage ink and lightly went over it. It looks good except in the bottom corner :(  Oh well over all I like the idea and how it came out.

I like to add an inside message to my cards.

Hope you are all having a wonderful day!

TSB Spring

 Nothing says Spring to me like Easter! One of my favorite holidays! The Stamping Boutique challenge for the next week is Count Down to Spring. You can find it here.

I am a bit behind posting this card. My life with a 9 month old and teaching doesn't leave a lot of computer time. Luckily The Stamping Boutique challenges run two weeks! This is one of my favorite Easter images.

Bunny Egg is colored with Copics then I added Stickles to the dots and ears.
