Blue Ribbon Birthday Cards

The Blue Ribbon Stamp set is so fun.  These happen to all be birthday cards, but the stamp set includes lots of options. Who wouldn't love a birthday card with a big blue (or orange, pink or green) ribbon on the front! That would make anybodies day.

For the Birds

These cards were designed as a simple class that would be easy to duplicate. Most of the pieces are cut the same, with a few extra decorative elements added. This set has so many different uses. I think the use of the Aqua Painter was perfect for these cards. These are definatly QC (quick and cute)! A complete list off all the supplies and measurements are available upon request. Designed by Susan Adams and Janet Baker

Out of this world birthday surprise!

Susan Adams is the designer for these cute little treat boxes. The little alien is on a pack of orbit gum. The gum fits perfect right inside 2 Petite Pockets made with the Big Shot.  I love finding new ways to use a die.  A gift card fits great inside too!

Teacher thank you basket

What teacher wouldn't feel appreciated with this basket of useful items! I'm sending them with my kids this week to thank their teacher for a great first week of school. You could just have it ready and surprise the teacher once a month with a little school supply, I know sometimes when the end is getting near they get low on supplies.

One year when my husband was teaching there was an awesome mom that would send him a little treat every month just to say thanks. Thanks, Shelley! I want to be just like her!

Back to school survival bags

Your kids will love this little bag of goodies on the first day of school.  I used Stampin' Up's My Digital Studio to design this.  I love digital for fast and easy projects. One great thing about using MDS (My digital studio) is that you can purchase downloads of  paper and images that Stampin' Up has retired.

Back to school survival bag

Print this off, fill the bag with all the goodies, and send your kids to school on the first day with a little extra love from you!  The first day of school is scary, this might make it a little easier.

bottle wrap

We are dying over these adorable bottle/soda can wraps we designed with the help of Jaime Bundy. We love to surround ourselves with cute things, including our drinks! Also, very little sewing is actually involved. These have inexpensive slap bracelets in the middle to hold the shape around the bottle, then there is fun foam on the back to keep the fabric from sliding down the bottle.
