Easter Anya Basket

Here's another project using Easter Anya.  I didn't want to embellish the box since the colors are so pretty already.  It's hard to see in this picture but I used Fun Flock on her bunny ears.

Friends....

Here's another project that I completed last month but was just so lazy to post.  I know....I am such a bad blogger.  Anyhow, this is a boxed set of assorted note cards with envelopes (sorry I didn't take any photos of the note cards but they match the images on the box).  This stamp set is by Papertrey Ink, called Friends Till The End.  The box is by the infamous Lauren Meader, called Filed With Flair .  The boxes inside the main box are also from My Timeless Templates called All Boxed Up.

Here is the front view.  What a perfect gift to give a special friend.

Another one in pink.

I'll be back with more posts.

Ian and some cuppie-cakes

Who could resist a birthday greeting from Happy Chef Ian?  This image is from another great set from The Greeting Farm.  I've had this set ever since it came out but only got a chance to ink it up now. Isn't he the cutest?  I added Stickles to the cupcakes to give them some bling.

Get Well Wishes with Nurse Anya

I hope you all are having a Happy April Fool's Day.

I know, I know...I've been MIA for almost a whole month!  Well after the wedding favors and Valentine's day stuff I needed a break.  I didn't expect to be gone for so long.  Well, I have been stamping but didn't quite feel like blogging.  I've been lazy!  But over the next few days I have some stuff to show you.  In the meantime I have been making stuff for an upcoming craft fair.  I will give you all the details for the fair later (it's at the end of the month).

Anyhow, a friend of mine called me the other day and wanted to order a tea box with matching card for an aunt that's in the hospital.  She wanted Nurse Anya in pink and brown so here's what I came up with.  Hope you likey, likey!

I'll be back with more creations soon.  I have all my Gorjuss Girl and new Anya creations to show you.

Have an awesome day!

Wedding Bells

Happy Saturday everyone!  No time for a long post today because I'm off to a wedding.  I wanted to upload a few pictures before I left.  Here is the wedding card that I made for the happy couple.  I used the "Cake Topper" set from The Greeting Farm.  I just love this set...but then again, I love everything from The Greeting Farm, can't you tell!  Anyways, I paper pieced almost everything since I didn't feel like coloring.

Here's a close up shot so you can see the dimensions in her hair and flowers, oh and also on Ian's sleeve.

I also offered to make the wedding favors.  These are just simple pillow boxes with the centers die cut.  I added a velum window that was stamped with a little flourish from Papertrey's Boxes, Bags and Tags set.  For the sentiment I used a combination of the Boxes, Bags and Tags set along with Favor It Weddings, also from Papertrey.  Added a gold ring and tied with cocoa organza ribbon.  Just something simple since it was a last minute thing for me.

Here's a close up of the sentiment.  It reads: "Two Hearts One Love".

  

Well, I'm off!  Have a great evening!

Happy Girls Day!!!

Happy Girls Day to all of you out there in blog land!  Please excuse the lack of posts lately.  Both of my children celebrated their 12th and 14th birthdays and I was busy planning and crafting for the party.  And can you believe that I don't have any pictures of the things I made for the party!  I was so busy (since I started things so last minute) that taking pictures for this blog totally slipped my mind!  What an IDIOT!  Anyways, the party was fun and everyone loved their handmade grab bags.  Well, back to Girls Day.....yesterday it dawned on me that it was Girls Day already!  My gosh...where did the time  go?  I swear the days are just flying by too fast!  So anyways, I had to sit at my desk and brain storm on what I could make for the kids teachers and friends.  It's a good thing that I work better under pressure!  Well, with not much time on my hands I decided to do something similar to what I made for Girls Day last year (see last picture on this post)  Each milk carton is filled with a different treat.

Here is another version.  These milk cartons in a carrier were for the kids teachers.  I had honestly planned on putting Hello Kitty on it since Girls Day is a Japanese holiday but by two in the morning I was exhausted and was in no mood to make dozens of Hello Kittys!  Anyway, I think these beautiful designer papers are pretty enough to leave undecorated.  This picture shows the Japanese treats that were included in the milk cartons.

These single milk cartons are a little larger than the ones I put in the carriers.  These were for my daughters friends.  I surely wasn't about to make the milk cartons with carriers for all her friends since it would take me forever,  so I made these bigger so that I could fill it with more treats.

The kids brought them to school today and said that every one loved them.

These are the ones I made last year.  The Hello Kitty Cricut cartridge didn't exist at the time so I downloaded this image from the internet.

Have an awesome evening!
