Just for You!



Happy Wednesday everyone!  I hope everyone is having a great week!  I have a cute little gift bag to show you guys today.
 
 

I cut this cute gift bag on my Cameo from some My Mind's Eye paper.  The box is designed with slots to feed the ribbon through.  I added this beautiful satin horizontal stripe ribbon in teal. I love this ribbon....it's some of my favorites!   I need to keep this one on hand in every color.   I trimmed a piece of a doily to fit in the corner and added some buttons from my stash.  The little jute bow is from this set

You can read more details on my blog.

Thanks so much for stopping by!

Love You Card



Hello There!
Linda here today to share with you another girlie card creation using your favorite RRR collections!
I wanted to create something a little bit different by adding 1.5" light blue netting ribbon and multiple layers of patterned paper to create the background for this project.


I used a vintage tag and mini envelope with stamped title "love you", topped with cute chipboard banner. It is quite a simple project to put together and I just adoreeeeee this bright pink stitched edge ribbon. You must see it in person! This cutie is very versatile, great with all projects that need "pink" touch.. :)

And here is the detail picture;

Just finished hopping and I'm pooped but inspired! This summer will be a staycation for me. We call them day trips and I love them. The biggest part of my summer is Camp Mimi, a couple of days of crafting and fun with my two grandsons! Love it.

Magnetic Memo Board


Hey everyone! It's Monday again! Emily here from Create Serendipity to share a fun alterable project! 


Recently I was at a thrift store on the lookout for a baking sheet. I didn't want to spend a ton of $ on a brand new one because I thought I might be able to get one cheaper at a thrift shop. Certainly, I did! I don't really know if it's a baking sheet, but it works worked my project! 


I had an idea to do a magnetic memo board. These are SO simple to make! Grab a baking sheet and some magnets and let the creativity flow!


The little rosettes have magnets on the back as well as the notepad, so they can all be moved around.


I wanted to add a little photo banner at the top and showcase a few of my own photos.


Thanks for stopping by today! Stop by my blog for more details!

How About Some Summer "Aqua"?




I don't know about you, but this time of year I start thinking about the ocean, the beach and tropical places. I just got a new spool of the gorgeous aqua ribbon and it reminds me of the crystal clear blue water of the gulf.
 Well, thanks to a good friend (wink) I happened to have some paper with the same theme!! Some Graphic 45 Tropical Travelogue! Perfect colors for the ribbon!!!! So a couple of cards were born!!!



On this first card I not only used the beautiful aqua ribbon, but also the Beatrice crocheted lace and a bit of Baker's twine.

Here you see the Baker's Twine in the button.


For this one, I only used the aqua. I just wanted a pretty bow to highlight the tropical stamp images!



This just shows a little detail. The stitching is all done with my Zig marker!!! The embossing and stamps are from the Susy West WOW collections.



Now, if I can just take a trip to the beach!!! I would love to see these colors in person with the water and tropical blooms!!! I hope you enjoy the cards, and urge you to "think tropical"!!!
