I haven't done much crafting over the summer and that's why I've neglected my blog. But I'm back now and hopefully I'll get back to some regular creating and posting!
So here is what I made for my friend Caitlin's baby shower! I love how they came out and everyone really enjoyed them.
I made the nugget boxes using a template from Splitcoaststampers.com. The bottom is made out of a light blue textured cardstock and the top slider part is made of clear acetate. I printed the labels with the letters in certainly celery and bashful blue on the printer and wrapped them around the nuggets. Then I tied the ribbon around the boxes and attached a thank you tag with a small jump ring.
They were pretty simple but a little time consuming... especially because I made 100 of them!
Cardstock: Light blue textured (from a local stamp store)
Ink: Blue Bayou
Stamps: Fiskars Baby Stamps from ACMoore
Ribbon: 3/8" satin ribbon an exact match to Certainly Celery but from ACMoore
Accessories: Clear Acetate sheets
This is another Christmas card idea using Merry & Bright that I completely cased from someone on SCS but of course I forgot to save the link again! I like to case Christmas cards to get my mind going on them and then usually I figure out my main design later.
I am planning on using the Merry & Bright stamp set for my Christmas cards this year, but I can't decide on what design to use. Last year I did all one design. I guess I could do a few different designs this year, we'll have to see! I completely cased this card from photobug on SCS. I really loved her design and colors and I didn't see the need to change anything!
I just ordered the Thoroughly Thankful set and the Autumn Vine DSP! I had wanted to order this set last year but didn't get a chance to so I was glad they brought it back this year. I cased the layout and basic idea from a card on SCS. Of course I didn't think to save the link to the card but if I find it again I'll post it.

This is the Mother's Day card I made for my sister Julie. It's simple but I really like how it came together.
This is a simple bag topper I made to match the card for my mom. I just measured the width of a small ziplock bag and made the topper just a little bit wider. When it was done I stapled it over a ziplock bag of homemade cookies!
