Extra Extra

This is a gift wrapped newspaper for our newborn nephew.  The idea was to send a newspaper from the town you live in that was published on the baby's date of birth.  Isn't that a cool idea.  Better yet, the nursery has a Newsies paperboy theme.  I felt the need to decorate the paper before putting it in the mail. I wrote a little message on the back of the ticket journal tag.  The colors are mint green, gold and brown.  This is included in the Unity Stamp Company's Friends With Flair projects.


Tools used include: Unity Stamp Co. Kit Of The Month Everyday Fairytale scroll stamp.  Ranger coffee archival ink, K&Company paper, Martha Stewart Crafts ribbon, Jaded Blossom candies and charm dies, punch, Tim Holtz ticket and cording.

Amazing Friends

This is a card that speaks volumes.  I adore these sentiments together. The Unity Stamp Co. June/July 2013 Sketch Challenge is the perfect backdrop for this friendship theme.  This is also in their Friday Friends With Flair projects.


Front Sentiment: Thank goodness for amazing friends like you.

Inside Sentiment: A friend is one who knows you and loves you just the same. ~ Elbert Hubbard

Isn't this so true?  I paired the sentiments from two different sets.  The doily, trim and bow are a golden honey color.  Navy blue damask and grey are the accent colors here.

Tools used include:
From Unity Stamp Company: Blossom Stackers & Ornate Artisan Stackers and Everything Wonderful.

Happy 4th of July!  Have a safe and wonderful weekend.

Classy & Fabulous

Here is a card with a little sass and class.  This is going to be for my daughter's birthday, so I made it a more grown up style this year.  It was inspired by Miss Emma's Bling challenge at My Creative Time.  I have paired the perfect stamps with glitter, gems and heat embossing.


Sentiment:  A lady should be two things: Classy & Fabulous

I think this yellow, black and turquoise color combination with the soft butter tulle works so well together.  The gems were added for a trendy look.  The tag is glittered and the girl is heat embossed.  The inside includes a birthday greeting.

Tools used include:
From My Creative Time:  Keepin' It Classy, Classy & Fabulous and It's All About You stamp sets.
