So I was looking through different sketches to make something yummy for you guys to look at when I stumbled across last Saturdays Inspiration Sketch over at Splitcoaststampers. I was inspired by this awesome little quilt picture…


several things inspired me…the colors and the shapes! Aren’t the colors gorgeous? The round polkadots were screaming at me! So I went to work!


Here is what I came up with!




What do you think? Isn’t the book mark just the cutest? I love making these, they are sooo awesome and sooo easy!


Supplies:
Stamps: #1 Bonus stamp from the Zac & Zoe Sports 2bundle
Ink: Stazon black
Paper: Prism White, Designer paper
Accessories: thin coasters, 1 3/8 circle punch, rhinestones, ribbon,
watercolor pencils, blender pens, ribbon scrap

I hope you like my little book mark! I’m sure everyone has seen these giant paper clips, but just in case you haven’t they are in the office supply aisle at WalMart and I think they cost about a dollar for 12 or so of them…I know! They make great presents for teachers and stocking stuffers for the reader in your family!

Thanks for stopping by! Happy Stampin’

Boxed Set

Hello hello hello!



Before I start on my post I would just like to take a moment of silence to honor and respect all those that lost their lives on September 11, 2001. It was a tragic day, a day that will always be in our hearts. I pray that all the families that lost loved ones will always know they are never forgotten!



And on a more pleasant note, I would like to wish my Daddy (I know I'm almost 31, but he will always be my Daddy) a very Happy Birthday!



It's been quite some time since I last posted on here, and let me just tell you it feels Ohhhh soooo good to be back! I was feeling a little in a slump, like I wanted to give up paper crafting all together and pursue something else! Sheesh What was I thinking? Paper crafting runs through my veins! It's as much a part of me as I live and breathe! Last night I made a pair of earring's (my new hobby I want to try my hand at) to give to someone who recently watched our dog for us while we were away...then I thought, hey I need to package it nicely... plus I had to created a project to showcase today, so I made this super cute box and matching 3x3 card, pretty helpful to have a batch of new supplies waiting for you when you get some too, that gets a girl in a crafting mood!





So tell me? What do you think of my little box and card? Arent the earings super cute? They are my first ones that I have ever made, but I love them...I love their simplicity and how they can go with pretty much anything! Plus it was my first time using a head pin! All in all I think it was a very successful project and I pray that the person I give it too will appreciate it!





And a little pic of the box and card all ready to be given...altough I still need to sign it!



Thanks for stopping by, and if you like the sketch I used on my card, you can check it out here at the OCC weekly sketch blog!



Supplies:
Stamps: Zac and Zoe Sports Bundle I
Ink: stazon black and stazon white
Paper: velum cardstock, baja breeze, prism white, junebug paper pad by basic Grey
Accessories: blender pens, watercolor pencils, paprer snips, black gingham ribbon, border punch, rectangle punch, 1/16 circle punch, scor-pal



Thanks again for stopping by! Have a wonderful stampy kinda day!
