Give Thanks banner

Here is the "Give Thanks" banner I made. this one uses Paper Doll Dress Up (Pilgrims cut at 11 1/4) and Alphalicious (letters cut at 4 1/2 short stack) click on pictures to enlarge :)

suitcase card

I made a couple of these cute little suitcase cards for some people moving out of our ward. I think they turned out pretty cute. I used the bag cut from the "New Arrival" cartridge at 6 1/2 (I cant remember now.) Then I cut it again in white for a liner on the inside one size smaller. I added the lighter brown strips of paper and then stamped the postmark from Close to my Heart set "air mail" and added a little metal rimmed tag. ENJOY!

Halloween treats


This is what Monica and I made the kids for Halloween. They had to come T-O-Ting here 1st. These are super easy
3 sheets of 12x12 cut into 6x12
6 Hershey bars or Kit Kat's that's whats in the 4th one over
glue or double stick tape
paper crimper
circle punch
ribbon
scraps of paper to wrap around the middle
a cute spider or a stamped image will work too.

*This is not my original idea. I had the link sent to me from a Stampin' Up demo. and I cant find the site now so to whom ever you are THANKS! The kids LOVED them!!!
