More teacher gifts

While I'm on the topic, here are some cards and fun things I made for my son't teachers for teacher appreciation week. The cards are for his music, preschool, and Spanish teacher, respectively. The lunchbox I decorated and filled with goodies and cut out the fabric bird for a little bag as well. I had SO much fun doing these!

Used Live Simply and Cindy Loo on the lunchbox

I used Nifty Fifties for this bird design I just LOVE!

My Sweet Valentine - Magazine Challenge

This theme was to create a Valentine's treat with something edible on or inside of it! I decided to make a little box and fill it with Hershey's Kisses. I think it turned out cute and it was my first time making a box! The prize for this contest is a Cricut Cake Mini and I would LOVE to win one! Here's hoping for a chance!

Weekly Challenge 17 - B.A.B.Y. Challenge!

Here are the rules of the BABY Challenge - it is NOT about babies!

• (B) = Brads
• (A) = Aqua
• (B) = Butterfly
• (Y) = You as the Subject

This was coming at a perfect time because I was just about to start a scrapbook of my husband and I from the time we met until the time we had the kids - a way to tell them our story. So, I started with a page about me when I first met my husband. This was 13 years ago so these are old pics, but I love them! I spent the whole week on this as I had sick family here, but was really proud of this, and totally forgot to take and post my photos last night. I woke up this morning VERY upset remembering it! BUT, I will post them now!

Weekly Challenge 16 - Cute as a button!

Man, I have been SO off lately! I was really uninspired until earlier today. My kids were sick, I was going crazy, yet the design popped into my head. I can't believe I actually finished! We were to follow a page sketch and use buttons/stamps in our layout. For my stamps, I pulled out my layering stamps that I have never used. I'm not much of a stamps person, but at least it matched my layout! The button colors were perfect as well. All in all, I'm really happy with how it turned out! This will be the front page of my family scrapbook for 2010! Best of ALL, I got to use my new cart, Groovy Times! Love it!
