Floral Sympathy Card

I am sharing a card with you for my very dear friend whose grandmother passed away recently.  It is never an easy thing to make sympathy cards, but I hope to brighten my friend's day at least a little with this one!
The GORGEOUS papers I used are DCWV's Bouquet De Fleur stack.  The colors and glitter in this stack are so amazing.  I absolutely love it.  The flower that I created is from SVG Attic's Pretty Purses set.  The heart doily is from the Silhouette Store.
 I hope you have a wonderfully crafty day!

Bug Box

Today is my day to post for Trendy Twine and I am sharing a fun way to package treats for the young boys in our lives!  I started out by using a Kraft Gable Box and I had a lot of fun decorating it.
First, I added plaid paper from DCWV'S Boyhood stack to the four side panels of the box.  Then I wrapped that bright green ant paper around the center.  I had these fun plastic ants laying around and adhered them to the front :)
I created the magnifying glass in my cutting software, then added a sentiment tag and an arrow.
The magnifying glass handle is wrapped with Limeade Trendy Twine.  The bow that attached the glass and tag to the handle of the box is made from Chocolate Truffle and Limeade Trendy Twine.

Here is what I used from Annie's Paper Boutique:

Limeade Trendy Twine - Lime Green & White Bakers Twine       Chocolate Truffle Trendy Twine - Brown & White Bakers Twine

5 Small Kraft Gable Boxes

Lion Birthday Card

I made two of these cards as part of a package for my mom.  I thought I'd be a nice daughter and make her some cards to send out :)  I thought these would be perfect for my young nephews.
 The patterned paper that I used, which I totally LOVE, is from My Mind's Eye (Alphabet Soup Boy) and it was a $5 black Friday deal at Michael's!  The cute lion is from Miss Kate Cuttables.  I have the lion and the rectangles underneath it popped up with foam tape.
To finish it off, I added three homemade enamel dots in the top left corner and some orange crinkled seam binding around the bottom.

This starts the beginning of a new challenge at DoubleClick Connections with the Animal theme.  Head on over to enter if you have created a project that fits the theme!

I hope you have a wonderfully crafty day!
