Teacher gift: sour cream containers

appreciation luncheon in addition to the cutlery holder.

I have made these sour cream containers before HERE for soccer 

and HERE for Thanksgiving  but I made these bigger.

The original video I have used for these are HERE.
They were filled with chocolates.

I can do ALL things...

Hi there.

Sharing a card I made for a set.

It features an inspiration stamp by Verve and 

paper from Basic Grey's "Life of the Party" 6x6 pad.

I sat and just stared at the "ruler" sheet and had that stamp on my desk.

I kept looking back and forth and it came to me... His power is immeasurable.

I cut the ruler sheet from the pad into strips and "wrapped" it to look like those fabric tapes.

Stamps: Verve Plain Janes

Ink: Distress Barn Door

Papers: Basic Grey's "Life of the Party"

Stickers: Cosmo Cricket Tiny Types

Other: Spellbinder Nestabilities wonky rectangles

I am entering this card into the following challenges:

SSS, BG56, MOJO214: a b-day card

Lots of birthdays coming up in our family so I thought

I'd use the MOJO#214 sketch to get a jump on one.

Purchased the ADORABLE notebook paper stamp from Verve.

I intended to use it for little notes on school scrapbook pages,

but too cute to hoard it for just that!

The card features Basic Grey's "Olivia" papers.

The flower is by Hero Arts: 

Added dimensional foam to the notebook paper:

Christmas/Winter card in May??

Howdy.

Inspired by FOUR different challenges, I created the Christmas card below.

I finished a layout using the Basic Grey Jovial line so figured I use some of the scraps and get a "jump" on the holidays.

The bunny was stamped several times on Kraft (sled), white (body),

cream (background) and BG stripe (scarf). 
The bunny was paper pieced, flocked and given a dollop of liquid pearl on the tail.
The sled was pieced also.

I really love how this card turned out. 

I love the layering in the sketch which highlights the beautiful patterns
 in this BG line of papers.  I have trouble layering and the sketch REALLY did the work!

I opted for the charm saying "wonderful" in case I decide to use it as a birthday card later...
