Get Well Soon

Made a get well card for a family member.
I used the newest sketch from Seize the Sketch challenge #2

I paper pieced the turtle and gave him a glittery ice pack 
with a dab of my wink of stella marker.
The heart was a punch that I layered several times.


Here's the Sketch:

 

My card features papers by Echo Park,
 Lawn Fawn's "On the Mend" stamps,
washi tape, and wink of stella glitter marker.

Thanks for visiting,

Gift Tags for Teachers

Hi There.
Sharing some tags I made for a back to school treat for the boys' teachers.
The tag features Lawn Fawn's "A Good Apple" and Harold's ABC. 
The words were embossed with white powder.
The chalkboards were colored and cut out.
I added the black piece on top.



 The treats are little chocolate Scotty dogs.  The Scotty dog is the mascot for the school.
When I found the candy mold at the local grocery store I could not resist it!






I am entering this tag into the Simon Says Stamp Challenge: Back to School.
Thanks for looking,
Kelly

Germ Juice

Made these adorable "germ juice" containers for the boys' primary teachers.
I got the idea off of PINTEREST The link takes you to a picture not a blog.
The original was written with a sharpie.  

When I bought my Cameo a month ago I got the vinyl starter bundle.
This is my first vinyl project and I must say that the process was pretty easy and
turned out GREAT.  So professional looking!

Simon Says Stamp: Back to School

If you are a regular reader of my blog, then you have heard of my journey
to go back to work.  I taught high school for 12 years and have been home for 10 years.
I was offered a full-time tutoring position last weekend at a local school.
Back to work I go! I still hope to do a little crafting, but I will be limited.

Thanks for looking,
Kelly

10 Min Craft Dash #23: Birthday



Decided to join in the fun of the current 10 Minute Craft Dash.  
It is the challenge's one year anniversary!

This card took 8 minutes and 34 seconds.
Would have been less, but the Glossy Accents and I got in a battle (clogged)...
The gloss won and I switched to my Scotch Quick Dry.
