Shop Update: Lots of Pink!!

 Just a quick post to update anyone who might be interested on the Etsy shop........

I have lots of the Pink Satin Cutout Hearts Ribbon shown above still available. 

It is listed in 2 yd. quantity, but I can hook you up with more if you need it.

Below is a CAS little note card I put together using this ribbon.  I actually ran the ribbon through my Xyron sticker maker and adhered it that way.  Much easier to use than trying to run tape along the back side of it.

Worked like a charm.  Who would have though how useful that little sticker maker would actually be.  I use it for all of my rick rack too!

 Even more pink............

I now have Pink Rustic Twine available.  This is listed in 10 yd & 20 yd quantities, but again - I can work out different quantities if you need it.

Friday = Friends with Flair

It seems like forever since I have posted a card or creation on here.  I've been super busy with lots of things and my Etsy shop is seeing lots of traffic.

I did have some time to sit and create some things the other night after getting my Unity Kit of the Month in the mail......

This months kit is "to the moon and back".

The hearts are from this kit and the sentiment is from an {ippity} kit -How YOU Doin'?

All {ippity} is still available through me here on my blog - the kit is pictured below.

I also used some of the twine that I have available in my Etsy Shop.

I have it available in 4 colors:

Ivory

Kraft

Burgundy

NEW color just added - Pink

I've been "Featured"!!!

As many of you know, I carry Divine Twine Baker's Twine in my Etsy Shop.  I have all 12 colors currently available.

I've been super busy keeping up with orders in my shop - It's a good kind of busy though - I love it!!

I work full time M-F, so my evenings have been spent getting orders packaged up and sent out as quickly as possible.  I don't like to make my customers wait! :)

The gang at the post office is getting so familiar with me that I walk in and they say....

"The usual??"

Anyway, along the way I've "met" some great people and was recently contacted by a customer who wanted to feature my shop and twine on her blog.  How exciting!!

 Through email, Jenn and I worked out some details and today on her blog she features my shop and is having a giveaway.........

The Mustard Seed

I am offering a special on 10 yds of Divine Twine Baker's Twine and...........

 I've been absent from the blogging world lately, but only because life has gotten quite busy. 

My Etsy Shop has been busy and I have not had much time to sit and create....

Anyway - I did get the time to put together a couple of gift boxes.

Some cardstock, designer paper, a tag, wrinkled rayon ribbon, some Unity and PTI stamps, and a bit of burlap material transforms a basic kraft box.

 Below is a photo of the box before any embellishing was done.

These are still available in my Etsy Shop.

I know it's too late for Christmas, but these boxes can be decorated and use all year round.

In case I don't get a chance to post again before Christmas.........

Happy Holidays!!

Mini pocket notepads - FWF

 This project is a cute little gift box made using the Sizzix scalloped square die.  I cut two of these, stamped them, and then made up a small box to put between them.

The stamp kits used here are a couple of  Unity's Co-Branded kits with Jillibean Soup - HERE

 My second item to share with you today is this little pocket notepad.

The stamps involved in this come from the Unity Kit of the Month for November - Picture Perfect.

The notebook paper stamp and sentiment come together nicely on this little 3x5 notepad.

I designed a template to use with 3x5 scratch pads.

 If you look inside, I have designed it to have a little pocket to tuck stuff into.

These fit perfectly into your purse and are great for shopping lists, gift lists, etc.

I have several available HERE in my Etsy shop too.

Card Set & A Challenge

 Skipping around the blogs I like to visit and came across a challenge over at

the Moxie Fab Blog for birthday cards.

These are my submissions for the

 Card Creations: Favorite Occasions Week Birthday Challenge in the Moxie Fab World

I have not shared this set yet, and it has a few birthday cards included.

I love these colors together and kind of took off with the simple style using the

Papertrey Ink Anniversary set from this last year and some variations in the layouts.

 I feel so much more productive when I can put out sets like this rather than just one card.

Don't get me wrong, its fun to put together a super great card now and then, but my time is seriously limited nowadays.  One word............HOCKEY.

These were quick and easy and I love that!!  I was on a roll for sure.

Gift Card Sacks-Tags-Ornaments

 Quite a while ago, I got my hands on some of these teenie, tiny brown paper sacks.

After staring at them for a while, I figured out that gift cards fit perfectly inside these bags.

I decorated a few of them and added twine so they can be tied to something.

They can be used as gift tags or hung from the tree.

My mother always used to hide my smallest gifts inside the tree somewhere - these are ideal for that!

I plan on tying a few around some bottles of wine and tucking a gift card inside.

You can also stuff them with any tiny treat or gift. 

 The Pandora bracelets / charms are big with the ladies in my family right now, so these are perfect!

They measure 2.5" x 4"

I have these and 3 other designs available in my Etsy shop right now.
