Thanks to my Father in Law


I am so lucky! I have the most generous and amazing in laws, and today my Father in Law did something very kind for our family. So... I made him this thank you card. It's a pretty simple card. Used some paper from My Minds Eye, and a piece of cardstock I picked up last year at costco. I cut the cardstock with my Cricut, and embossed it with a Cuttlebug embossing folder. Added a little ink, a little sanding, some ribbon and stitching and I had a nice card to send to my Father in Law.

Another Teacher Appreciation Week Box


Wow, first of all this box looks much less plain when you see it for real. Wow.
Ok, this is another box to hold a gift card for my son's first grade teacher. (I just didn't have any idea what to get her!) So it is made with cardstock from My Mind's Eye, and a flower from Prima. The brad in the center is from Making Memories. I did the sentiment on my computer and cut it out with a large circle punch. I added some stitching around the circle and on the box to give it some texture and tied it with some ribbon. The back of the box has some more ribbon on it too.

Teacher Appreciation Week


Next week is Teacher Appreciation Week, and the theme is 'Thank you for making us grow". Our fabulous principal will be leaving us this year. So I wanted to make her a card. This is what I came up with. The paper is Wild Asparagus, and the paper from the photo corners are from DCVW paper and cut with my cricut. I made the tag with sizzix.

Grazie Marguerite


Tonight I have a cooking class from the Amazing Marguerite Henderson. So today I thought I would make her a card to say thank you for everything she has taught me. Here's what I came up with and I hope she likes it.
I used papers from My Minds Eye and flowers from Prima. The g was cut with the Cricut 'Base Camp' font.

Thanks


I have been itching to use this airplane cut from my Cricut Mickey and Friends cartridge. Here's what I came up with.

Thanks So Very Much

My oldest son is 7, and one day as he was leaving school one of the School Secretaries gave him a small gift (since he had a particularly good day at school that day). This small action made him so very happy that I had to thank her. So, this is the card I made for her. I cut the 'T' and the tag with my ever-faithful Cricut. I then layered Papers and inked the edges of everything and sanded the paper to age it a bit. I added a ribbon and did some stitching. The sentiment is a home made rub on (I will explain those later, in another post). I make a lot of those rub ons, so I can have the sentiment I want, in the font and size I want without having to torture people with my horrid handwriting, or spend loads of money and time trying to find just the right stamp. (Although I have lots of stamps too, and I do love them).

The inside (Another home made rub on) said "One small act of kindness can make a huge difference, Thank you."

Thank You card


So yesterday I needed a thank you card for my neighbor. I took about 15 minutes and here is what I came up with. Hope you like it.
I used paper from th Die Cuts with a View Spring stack, and a Prima Flower. I cut the tag with my ever-faithful Cricut. Did a bit of inking and stitching to give it softer edges and texture. The eyelet is from Making Memories and then I added ribbon. The sentiment is from a CuttleBug embossing folder, then I inked it to make the sentement 'POP' a bit more.
