Post-it holder

Hi everybody! How are you doing today? I'm still recovering from an amazing birthday party that we attended on Saturday. It was Spa Day and it was so much fun!!! All the girls had a blast! My friend even had cucumber slices for their eyes during mask time, it was adorable!♥

Raise your hand if you LOVE a post-it holder!! Me, me, me!!! I just love them!! They are so cute and I can never have enough, just the cutest little things. So I decided to create one for my swaps for OnStage. I have to say, the ladies were very excited about them and that made me very happy!

 
I used my very favorite stamp set and framelits to create it. Unfortunately the DSP is retiring but you could easily replace that for a different one.
 
 
 
I wrapped them in a cello sleeve along with my business card. I had such a great time during OnStage and swapping with all my fellow demonstrators. Can't wait for the next one already! ;)
 
 
All ready to go!!!
Hope you enjoyed todays project and I will catch you really soon!

Happy Friday!

The weather has been so nice again!! We had a great family day yesterday, lots of running around! ;)
Little one and I are looking forward to tomorrow, we have a friend's birthday party and the theme is Spa Day, we can't wait!! I'm just excited too cause the gift is all wrapped up already and card is enclosed, whoohoo!! I usually do that at the very last second with my foot out the door, am I the only one? Probably, lol!!
I did the following project during Easter for my daughter's classmates. I think they turned out cute. Do you make little goodies for your kids to take to school? I love doing it, it gives me so much pleasure!! :)

 
I started cutting out all the circles and scalloped circles, those punches are AMAZING!! Can't live without them. Then is time for some coloring, fun!!! I used our amazing Stampin Blends: old olive, pink pirouette and soft sky.
 
 
Very vanilla cardstock was a perfect match for these colors, hope you love it!

 
Finished them up with our gorgeous doily, paper bag and our twine tied with a bow!
 
 
 
And some tags for the teacher's as well! They really liked it!
Have a great weekend everyone!!! See you soon!

I'm back!!

Hi everyone! I'm SO sorry for being MIA. Had so much going on that my poor blog got neglected. But now that I am here, I have a lot to share, yay! Lucky you cause I'll be posting every day this weekend, that's right!! :)
So first things first! Remember when I said that I was going to show you the beautiful party favor that I did for my birthday? Here it is!


This was one of the most fun and easy favors that I have ever made! The creation is from my upline Erica Cerwin and I am so glad she posted this! Thanks Erica!! ♥
Unfortunately the paper is retired, it was free in the Sale-a-Bration catalogue which is no longer available. The sentiment is from the stamp set called Petal Palette and I must say, it is one of my favorites!!!!! So versatile, you can do so much with it, love it!!

 
Love seeing them all together! I filled them with Godiva truffles, it was a big hit!
 
 
And here is my friend holding it when we were still at the restaurant. Such a fun and blessed day!
 
Stay tuned when I show you the party favor that I created for my daughter's classmates! See you tomorrow!

Happiest of Sundays Friends!

Hi everyone!! Hope you are having an amazing Sunday! I can't believe it's almost April already, I feel like this year really is flying!! I say that every year for the last 4 years but I can't believe how fast is going... I'm trying to hold on to as much as I can because my little one will be 5 this year and I seriously can't believe how fast she's growing. Love her SO much! ♥

Anyway, I made a little notebook for groceries list, or whatever list you may need. I am a BIG list maker, I LOVE lists!!! I make lists for everything, is that weird? Lol!! :)




I used some crumb cake paper and Designer Series Paper for the cover AND the flower that I fussy cut it. Some whisper white cardstock for the tag, wink of Stella, powder pink ribbon and soft sky ink. It makes a great gift for teachers, Mother's Day, co-workers, you name it!



 
 
Alright friends, hope you enjoy the rest of your Sunday! Have a wonderful week!!

Ugh, time change!

Hi there!!! So, who likes time change? I know I don't, it messes my schedule with my little one and that is hard! Lol!!! Hope you all had a great weekend! We got to celebrate a friend's birthday and had a photo shoot for my little one, it was darling and oh, so sweet!! Do you do your little ones photo shoot? I just love the photos and the photographer is one of my best friends! ♥
I thought about posting a card that I made for our group challenge. The theme was flowers and I really like how this one turned out! Hope you do too.

I used the embossing folder and stamp set that you get it for free when you spend $100 bucks. It's an awesome set!! Really worth it and so versatile!
 

Here is some close up to the flower basket. Colored them with Stampin Blends, my new FAVORITE markers!! They are AWESOME!! Give it a try, I'm sure you will love them as much as I do!
Alright friends, come back soon to see a really cute favors that I did for my friends for my birthday, you will love them!

It's Friday!!

Hi friends!! How is everybody doing today? Excited for the weekend? I sure am!! We are getting some cold weather again this weekend (which I love), I know it has been pretty gnarly some places but here in California we are lucky if we have some cool temperatures. So, I am enjoying to the fullest! ;)
Now, have you seen the new Love stamps?? I absolutely LOVE them!!!! Plus, they were designed by one of my favorite companies, Rifle & Co. Wanted to get a lifetime supply but they didn't have enough in stock, waaaa!
Aren't they gorgeous??



I'm sure it puts a smile on every recipients face! Put some washi and your envelopes are dressed to impress!

 
Alright boys and girls, that is it for me tonight! Hope you all have a fabulous weekend!

Hello there!!

Today marks the first post on my blog, yay! I can see myself already looking back in a few years to see if it is any different from today. We shall see! ;)
This past week was my 45th birthday and I have to say, it was one of the best! I got to celebrate with one of my best friends who was turning 40, it was very sweet! So with that in mind, I created the following card, full of layers. It was fun to make!
