You Are Special!

Hello! Today I have a card that I made for one of the teaching assistants in my sons' pre-school class.  I used the sets kids2love and extras4kids from The Stamps Of Life.  I have had a lot of fun making jean shorts for the boy in this set!  I also used some DP from My Mind's Eye, Lime Twist collection.  I colored his hat, shirt and shoes with Copic markers and cut a tiny star from the DP to add to my layered circles with the sentiment.

Still trying to get back in the groove of creating.  So much stuff to get in order when you get back from a trip, not to mention three boys on summer break!

Have a great day and thanks for stopping by!

LOVE 2 SHOP!

Hello!  Today I have a card and a matching gift bag to share with you.  I used two new sets from The Stamps Of Life called animals4prints and extras4kids.  The extras4kids set goes with the kids2love that I showed you earlier this month.  The shopping bag and "love 2 shop" sentiment are meant to be used with the girl, BUT...I wanted to show you that you could use those little icons and sentiments by themselves, too!  My sister has a birthday coming up and she is a shopper, so she will love this.  She also loves red and it wouldn't be beyond her to wear something with an animal print! LOL!  The DP I used on this card is from echo park's For The Record collection.

Below you will find a matching gift bag.  I used an oval punch to punch out a handle on a small kraft lunch sack.  I stamped the leopard print onto the tag and used a sentiment from labels2use.  I tied it on with some red baker's twine to match the red in the card.

I hope you are inspired to make your own card and matching bag! I love using little kraft bags and adding a tag. Easy Peasy!
