Quick Gift Bag

This morning, I needed a quick gift bag for a little bracelet I was giving my fabulous CTMH Director and friend for her birthday. The Designer Creations Buttoned Bag was the perfect answer. I just added a stamped image, a few embellishments, washi tape and shimmer trim and had a cute package for my gift!

Snowhaven Birthday Card


I am super excited for next weekend's FancyCrop hosted by my good friend, Fancy Melissa. Four days of cropping with an amazing group of women? I'm there!


Melissa's team of consultants are participating in a birthday card swap. I'm tickled with how mine turned out using paper from the Snowhaven Paper Pack. I was inspired by this card from Janeybell Designs (see the Sweet Sunday sketch challenge design at the bottom of this post).





I just love the new embossing folders from Close To My Heart. A customer commented that this Dot one would be great for LEGO photos. Genius!
