Happy Sunday Everyone,

I hope everyone is having a wonderful weekend and keeping nice and warm. Well, I made this gift bag for my son's piano teacher.

I also used the Love You Much stamp set and Real Red, Pretty in Pink and Very Vanilla card stock. Well, I hope you like. Enjoy! Contact me with any questions and comments. Thank you for stopping by.

Sparkling Glass Ornaments

Hi Everyone,

I hope everyone is having a great day and keeping warm. It's cold at there. Brrrrr.... I made these glass ornaments by dropping a few drops of different ink refills colors inside the ornament. Shake the ornament until it's all covered and then drop a 1/2 a teaspoon of dazzling diamonds glitter. Shake and your done. I also added coordinated ribbon on top of each ornament. Easy and fun! Hope you like. Liz

Sneak Peek from the new Occasions Mini Catalog.

Isn't the Mini Milk Carton sweet? :o) I used the Sweet Peak Designer Series Paper over the pretty in pink card stock. Guess what? We will be offering new felt flowers. ♫I'm so excited, I just can't hide it....♫ okay, okay enough of that. Back to what's important. I used the Sweet Pea Stitched Felts (Don't you just love that name?) on the milk carton and a tiny one on the new Pretty in Pink Satin ribbon. I LOVE IT ALL!!! :o) Well, back to stamping. See you soon with lots more....

Head Bands

Hi Everyone! I hope you all are having a wonderful day. I brought these bands yesterday and decided to glamour them up a bit. No glitter this time :o) but I did used Glassy Glaze Enamel after stamping them with craft white ink. At first, I was a little hesitant in using the heat gun, but it worked great. The bands did not melt. Yippee! :o) I hope you like. Liz

Recipe:

Stamp sets - For black band: Wedding Sweet
For gold band: For All You Do
Ink - Craft White
Misc. - Glassy Glaze Enamel and head bands (local drug store)

Monogram Box

Happy Day Everyone! I'm so excited to share this post with you today. I actually made this box by accident. I was just playing around with the scor-pal with some scrap paper and this is what happened. :o) I also made my own DSP by using the Together Forever stamp set. That was fun. I used the Monogram Sweet stamp set for the letter "E". The box measures about 5"X7". I'm sure there are similar boxes out there, but I did this one without following a tutorial. Yippee! I hope you like it. Thanks for stopping by. Liz

Love Candy

Happy Monday Everyone,

I just love Lindt's milk chocolate bars. Don't you? I found this 4.4 oz bar at the supermarket on sale for only $.99. I decided to dress up this yummy bar with Love You Much stamp set. I needed to put this bar into something, so I got this paper bag, of course, it also needed to be dressed up to coordinate the bar. This is what I came up with. I hope you like. Liz
