Another Happy Card


I told you that you'd see this layout again!  In fact, this card came before the one I shared earlier.  I totally CASED this from my friend Bonnie.  I LOVED what she did - I just changed the colors and a few minor details.


This picture really shows off the Specialty Designer Paper with pre-embossed designs.  I just sponged over the designs in the color I wanted to use.  Easy Peasy!

Snickers Birthday Cake


The principle at my daughter's elementary school had a milestone birthday last year.  Each class was assigned an item and were giving her SIXTY of that item.  My daughter's class was tasked with giving her SIXTY SNICKERS.  The teacher asked if I could come up with a creative way to present the Snickers and this is what I came up with!  What do you think? 


It's similar to, but MUCH bigger than, this Nugget Cake I made for a teacher a few years ago.  I had asked for the kids to bring snack sized bars, but I got a variety of sizes, so I added them anywhere I could!


A view from the top!  That's a lot of candy!
I used the same process as I do when I make a diaper cake.  See all of my diaper cakes HERE, HERE and HERE.

Paper Purse Gifts


Aren't these purses fun?  I'd come across the idea somewhere online (and loosely used this video tutorial as a guide) and made a whole bunch of these for my stamping friends.  I added a few goodies to the bag and it made a fun gift.  


Here's the whole group in different colors.  They really standout with the black and white DSP!

Happy Cards

  

Here's a group of 'Happy' Cards that I made for swap awhile back.  This is one of my FAVORITE layouts.  You probably definitely will see this layout again. 


What I love about this design is that you can replace the 'Birthday' with just about any phrase from the Crazy about You stamp set/bundle.  Very Versatile!


I'm playing catch up on a bunch of projects I did last year and never posted.  I hope you enjoy them!
Have a great weekend!

Teacher Christmas Gifts 2015


Happy New Year!
A few more Christmas ideas/gifts before the new Occasions catalog starts on Jan 5, 2016.  These were some of the gifts we gave to my kids teachers this year.  It included Wood Stamp Case Gifts, Gift Bow Die Angel Ornaments and Hand Santa-tizers.


I love making these hand Santa-tizers.  They're fairly easy, very inexpensive and super cute! 
 

  

I've been packaging the teachers' gifts like this for the past few years.  I saw it on Pinterest and it seems to be even more popular this year.  There are many variations.  I use a retired snowflake die (cut in half) for the antlers.
