Favor bags!!

I'm on a roll this week!! Worked on a couple projects this week and continue to keep the mojo going. Made this favor bag as a sample to show for ideas for a party. I'm also working on another project making 215 invitations for a Year End Party at work. Thank goodness we have a team of crafty helpers putting this all together! The theme is "Mardi Gras" so the colors are fabulous! I will post pics of them when they are all done. We got at least 2-1/2" months to be done with it.

The measurements for this bag is 3-1/2" wide, 4-1/2" tall and 2" deep.

Happy Hump Day!!

Notecard Purse

So I couldn't pass this up in making another purse! Yes, the bag lady is back!! I miss making these purses and this time I made this into a notecard purse. Inside I included 5 blank notecards. Again sorry the picture is not as clear since I used my phone again. I didn't get the chance to charge the battery for my camera. The DP that I used is "pitterpatter" by Making Memories. The flowers on the purse has glitter on all the flowers but you really can't see it because the picture quality is not that great. The purse measures 7" wide by 4" tall. The notecards measurements are 4-1/4" x 5". I used different pink buttons on all 5 notecards.

Birthday Card

Here I am again with another post for the 3rd day in a row. I'm slowly getting back into the swing of card making again and created another card. I wanted to make a simple birthday card and was thinking that I could include a gift card on the inside. I haven't decided yet but wanted to make a bunch of cards for those days when you need one right now. Not one of my usual girly pink cards but wanted to try something new and make a blue card instead with no image.... Sorry my picture is not as clear but used my phone to take the picture since my battery needs to be charged on my camera.

Thanks for stopping by my blog and Have a Great Day!!

I finally finished it......

This is actually my second post in 1 day. I've been so bad in not finishing my OCS for my partner Jenny. I'm not sure what month it was but I promised her that I didn't forget and was going to create something even though the months have passed. It's just that I was in a bad funk and have not created in months and have been wanting to get back into it. It's finally coming back slowly.....I finally got the Anya stamp to make this card. I've been looking for it for a while and noticed it was sold out on GF. I finally ordered it from Stampin Munchkins. The pretty pink flower & stripes DP is Doodlebug. Since I took so long to send her the card I am also sending her a crafting canvas bag that I had printed. Have a Great Day!

Favor bags

I know its been a while since I posted something but it's been really busy for me and I finally got to create something. I made these bags really quick for a friend who asked if I had anything made for a gathering and she needed only 11 bags for a family get together the next day. It's a good thing that I had the right color card stock that she needed. I had to think of something quick to make and this is what I came up with. It turned out really nice especially with the embossing on the card stock. I also used the butterfly punch from SU that belongs to my sister who forgot that I have it. Have a Great Day!!

Pads, pads and more pads

Here's some of the pads that will given to all the kids at our company summer picnic in a couple weeks. The critters are from the "Create a Critter" Cricut cartridge. I had to cut all the critters, printed paper for the top and the cover to make about 100 note pads. My sisters, niece, nephew and myself put all of this together this past weekend. It sure took a whole lot of time cutting the critters and the pieces of all different colors. Sorry the lighting is not the greatest in the picture. There were actually 15 different critters that I cut but forgot the take the picture of everything before we put them all in the different goody bags. Hopefully all the kids will like them. We all had fun making them.... Thanks for stopping by and Have a Great Week...

Baby Stezia and Thank you Gifts!

Here's a pic of my newest grand daughter that was just born on July 31st and she's such a cutie! Yes, believe it or not she is my 7th grandchild (3 grandsons, 3 granddaughters and 1 step granddaughter) We just had a Hello Kitty baby shower for her the weekend before she was born and just made it in time for her arrival. I decided to make some "Thank You" gifts for all the baby baby gifts that my son and daughter in law received at their baby shower. Since it was a Hello Kitty theme I decided to coordinate the gifts the same way.

Design Tote Bag

Since I stopped playing games on FB I now have more time to make stuff. I was neglecting my crafting because I was addicted to playing too much games. I'm now back hopefully in full force and looking forward to surf everyone's blog to see the new creations.

I was looking for something to make tonight to teach at my craft class for some friends next month. I decided to make this tote bag as usual in my favorite colors pink and green. I love how this turned out! The bottom of the bag is 4-1/2" x 1-1/2", opening is 5-1/2" x 1-1/2" and the height is 5-1/4" tall. I found the buttons that I bought sometime ago and decided to use them. The butterfly is from a punch that I borrowed from my sister purchased from SU and the DP is from Tapestry. For some reason the green color in the top picture looks different from the bottom picture probably because of my lighting in the room.

Anyway Thanks for stopping by and Have a Great Day!

Hello Kitty Baby Shower gifts

I've been busy making ALOT of Hello Kitty heads this past week for a baby shower for my daughter-in-law that was today. Her due date is August 1 so I had to hurry up and do something just incase she was to give birth sooner. She loves Hello Kitty and since I only planned it last week I didn't have enough time to make boxes or bags and decided to use pink bags and attach the heads to the each bag for all the game prizes that we played.

My youngest sister made such a beautiful diaper cake. I Love it!! if you lift the middle layer you can see that there is receiving blankets in the bottom layer inside the middle rolled around then diapers wrapped separately in tissue paper. The middle layer itself has a container for powered milk then diapers wrapped around it again. The cup cake holder are filled with socks, bibs and onesies. There are other onesies around the cake with ribbon hair pins too. What a cute gift to give.

I made this bouquet of roses for her with baby clothes, bibs and socks wrapped like roses. I also wrapped the bouquet in a fleece blanket too.

Here are the bags that I made all the assorted Hello Kitty heads for. What fun it was but sure was alot of work making the heads.

Hello Kitty Purse

Tried something new today again and made a Hello Kitty purse. Yes another bag again!! The purse measurements are 5" wide, 3.25" high and 1.5" in depth. I had fun creating this but wasn't really sure what I really wanted to create. Does anyone keep any samples that you create? I always tend to give everything away and when I see it, I always wish that I kept 1 for myself too because it turned out so nice. I was actually supposed to make HK favors but got carried away and made this purse first. I think I like the embossed purse better than the the solid one. Thanks for stopping by and Have a Great Day!
