Little Inspirations Bookmarks

It's almost time to head back to school. So that means I have started working on back to school baggies for Rylan and Trace's friends. Well, actually just Trace's so far. Trace will return to the same school this year. His bags are a little easier since he attends a Christian school. This year Rylan will attend public school for the first year. That also means I have to alter many of the things have put in the baggies in the past. It won't be that hard (seeing as how I do it for my own classroom). Recently, I was required to stay off my feet and REST! Rest isn't easy when you have two small children! I was having issues with my back so I of course became obsessed with E-bay! While on E-bay I came across a rather old Stampin' Up stamp set called Little Inspirations. The minute I saw it I had to have it. I knew exactly what I would do with it when I had my hands on it! So here is what it did:

The first book mark is stamped in Daffodil Delight. Then it is layered with Brights DSP (Pacific Point) and then on solid Daffodil Delight Card stock. The second bookmark is stamped in Pacific Point. Then it is layered with Brights DSP (Daffodil Delight) and then on solid Pacific Point. These bookmarks will me one of several items to go in back to school goodie bags for Trace's classmates. I will be back soon to share the rest!

Happy Birthday

Daddy's Birthday

Sunday was my dad's birthday. Rylan loves cake so we had to put a cupcake on the front. Trace loves blue so we had to make sure it had the color blue somewhere on the card! Simple but tasteful. We gave me a gift card to eat out, so we made a quick envelope for it.

Strength and Hope

Breast cancer awareness is very dear to me, so of course the Strength and Hope set and the Ribbon of Hope are by far by two favorite stamp sets! Then of course reading is something I absolutely love to do! Since school let out I have read four novels! So with the card I made a bookmark.

Thank You Cards

Wow, so it has been a few weeks since I last posted. You name it, it has happened in the past few weeks! I finally feel like making something! Over the next few days I will be posting lost of things! Here is a set of thank you cards I made for my mom!

I used the Fabulous Florets and the Thank you came from set Thank you Kindly.

Time to Say Goodbye

It's that time of year when we must say goodbye many of our stamp sets and asseccesories. Is there something on your wish list that you have been waiting to get? Now it the time to get it! Get it before it's gone. Head over to my Stampin' Up website to check out the items that will be retiring. These items are available on first come first serve basis from now until June 30th. Get them while you can.

Masculine Birthday Card

My father-in-law's birthday was the first week in May. I designed this card to make it look like Rylan and Trace were in the front of the truck. I used the Loads of Love and Loads of Accessories stamp sets.
