Be Mine Balentine!




Morning! With Valentines day approaching I am trying to not procrastinate at making cards for Abby's schoolmates teachers etc. AS you all know its a little crazy around this time at the flower shop! SO getting these done the earlier the better and the Valentines bundle promo defiantly helps with that! Contact me for more info or see post below.
Abby loves helping me create!! She is so excited about making valentines and our upcoming first kids class! I just thought that I would share some thoughts on my beautiful little girl ..... My daughter is 5 and I have been approached by her school about her speech. NO biggy just mis pronouncing a few letters. But it is amazing to me how many children they say have speech issues. Maybe I am just naive or biased but whats wrong with my little girl saying Balentine ,hamgabur, pascetti or no way hosway. I don't know but maybe its just me but I thought kids all spoke this way when they were little. I know I have to correct it but they grow up way to fast!!!:)
Enough about me these few V A L E N T I N E S :) have the same layout but I just changed it up a bit. Just to show you the flexibility of a layout. Don't be afraid to reuse the same layout over and over its fun to see the little changes each time.
Each card used Happy Heart Day Real Red and Regal Rose CS. With matching accessories!
Have a great day! and enunciate! Geez! LOL :)

Shares

I am still looking for a few people to fill shares double stitch ribbon and pretties. See side bar for more info and pricing. Contact me asap if you are interested!!

Thanks

Mug O Love







This is a mug I made with the new Sale- A - Bration Rub-ons which are fabulous! You can earn them for free starting February 1st! Ask me how! I really love the different colours. They come with one sheet black one white one olive and one chocolate! Isn't that great!!!!

First I just made the mug. Which I got at the dollar store aren't they awesome!!! They come in a bunch of colours orange. lime and Brown. I was soo excited about this great find. Anyways I thought that the mug by itself was a bit plain. So I added the hot cocoa and I was thinking it would make a great gift with a book and a bookmark!!!! Wouldn't it! I am going to put that on my list of gift ideas. Thanks for stopping by today and have a fabulous Friday!!

From the Heart



This is a birthday card I made for a good Friend. I really likes the softness and calm of the whole card. I swapped this layout a few months ago and it stuck in my head as something that I wanted to re create.

Recipe: Wild Wasabi , Certainly Celery and Very Vanilla CS, as well as a thin strip of bashful blue.

The stampset is Stem Silhouettes I think that its called and old hostess set from the last catty.

A cute Valentines Gift idea! Using the hinged nugget tins i wrapped Hershey's chocolate nugget in groovy Guava DSP and punch a small heart to decorate the top of each. I used chipboard and micro beads for the charm and tied chocolate chip sating ribbon around it. For the matching card I used Happy Heart day SS Groovy DPS Chocolate chip and white CS. Sorry for the quick post but I am working on some fun stuff to post in the next day or two so be sure to check back!!!:)
