Post it note holders


I am working on another project this week.  I need to make 30 different post it note holders in the small, medium and large sizes.  Here's a few that I'm done with and I just noticed that the green post it shifted to the left for some reason.  Oh well I need to fix that.  Thanks for stopping by and Happy crafting and Have a great weekend!!

Thank you card

I have a few Thank you cards that I need to create before I do anything else.  I love these Gorjuss girls so I thought I'd try and make one with several girls on the card without cutting them out.  It turned out pretty good I think and since pink and green is a great match I thought of trying it out.  Thanks Kyoko for the images!

AWESOME RAKS I received

Sorry this is a little long of a post but I didn't want to forget to post this and show everyone of all the Happy mail that I received!  Here goes:

What an Awesome RAK that I received from Denise today!  I won 3rd place for the Himawari challenge and Denise was so nice to send me all this.  I love purple too and I also love the earrings!  I totally appreciate everything that I have received from all who sent me happy mail!  I feel so fortunate to have met everyone through crafting and blogging and hope someday I am able to meet you all.  Thank you!
I won this next RAK from Joy.
I love the Gorjuss Girls and the funny thing is that my favorite colors are Pink, Green, and Purple.  The card she made for me is just that!  I just love it.  Joy Thank you sooo much for everything.  You are awesome!

This next RAK I received is from Lyn who was my partner for July's PCP RAK.  She was so nice to want to be my partner for the month of July.  The previous month I was partnered with someone who I never received a RAK nor did she acknowledge that she received my RAK to her and Lyn was so nice to make up for it.  She was so happy to be partnered with someone from Hawaii.  Lyn.. Thank you so much for everything I received from you!  We'll be partners again someday I'm sure.  
This next RAK that I received is from Anne from Jen's July ALOHA RAK.  She included all kinds of goodies in the box and boy was I surprised with everything that I received.  Thanks Anne for everything! 

I received this card from Joni H. who sent this to me when I wasn't feeling well.  That was so sweet of her to do that.  Great coloring on the image.  I need to practice coloring on the images.  Thanks so much!

Favors



Made some favors for some friends coming over on the weekend.  I used all different Anya's and Ian for about 16 favors.  It was fun coloring them but then I ran out of ink for the hair and flesh.  I didn't realize how much ink you use for both the hair and flesh so I had to go pick some up before I could finish it up.  It was fun putting them all together.  The paper is actually something that I printed from a wall paper that I downloaded a while ago.

Flower Soap




Here's 2 of the crochet flower packs that I am sending out this week.  I thought it was neat to also send out some flowers that are actually "Hand Soap"(the picture above).  So winners of my flowers, please don't use them on your creations since it's not made out of paper.  They are actually scented hand soap but I wanted to share this with everyone because they actually look like we could use them for crafting.  I ordered the flower soaps a long time ago but just happened to find them together with all my crafts.  I might have mistaken it for paper flowers at one time.  My grand daughter loves flowers so I ordered these a while ago and she would wash her hands all the time just so that she could smell them.

Mini Shopping bag

I just realized that I've done a few bags recently. So I'm into purses...who isn't right! Anyway here's another mini shopping bag that I copied from a Cinnamon Girl shopping bag. It turned out really cute and can be used as a gift bag. I haven't done this for awhile so it took sometime for me to figure this out with a few extra creases in the paper.
I will try to do a tutorial for this bag as soon as I can. I am in the process of making 200 Hello Kitty heads for a 1 year old birthday party.

Gift Card purse holder


 

Here's a Gift card purse holder that I made and got this tutorial from Martha Stewart's website.  The paper is from Tapestry by C.R. Gibson and I used seed beads for the handle. The stamp "Lot's of Love" is from Hero Arts that I picked up from Cute Stuff.  

DON'T FORGET TO ENTER FOR MY CROCHET FLOWERS GIVE AWAY ON AUGUST 1ST.  SEE PREVIOUS POST.

Envelope purse

Here's an envelope purse that I made to fit my flowers in.  It took me a couple times before I got the right size to fit them all in.  The first bag that I made was a little too big and I know it would get smashed when I mail it so I decided to make a different one.  
  
Here is the pink purse that I first made.  I used the crochet flower in the front.  I don't have a template because I trashed it accidently and need to make another one.
