Lunchbox Notecards

Hi everyone, just a quick post today to share the simple and quick cards that I made using Pink By Design's Lunchbox Notes stamp set.  It was the first time I used this set, but I am so excited to be using them a lot more.  With the school year already here, I thought these 3" square cards would make a wonderful addition to kids' lunchboxes!  My boys are crazy about John Deere, so of course, that is what this color combo made me thing of.  The rumpled ribbon is from Lovebug Creations is called Green Leaves.

The second card is made with Oh Darling rumpled ribbon.

These cards were made using colors from this Tuesday Trigger at Moxie Fab World:

I hope you have a wonderfully crafty day!

Nebraska Cornhusker Sign

I am posting today as a guest designer for Craft It Up & Link It Up Linky Party hosted by Tara of Craftin Desert Divas! Every other Monday will mark the beginning of a new semi-weekly linky party and you could win fabulous prizes!!

Here is what I created for this linky party....

I live in good ol' Nebraska and even if you don't follow sports, you still had better show your Husker pride!  LOL!  So I vinyled this metal sign that I bought at Hobby Lobby (50% off after Valentine's Day).  I created the design in SCAL2 and cut it out using black and white vinyl that I purchased from H&H Sign Supply.

I hope you will Craft It Up & Link It Up!!!  Have a wonderfully crafty day!

Back To School Pencil

It is that time of the year again...back to school!  My oldest starts first grade on Wednesday.  Summer is already gone, which is hard to believe.  Anyway, I wanted to share this project with you.  I made the 3D pencil from SVGCuts' School Days SVG Kit.  Isn't is so adorable?

The best part is that it opens up.  I filled it with chocolate candy bars for the teacher to have a secret stash :)

All the patterned paper that I used was from DCWV's the Grade School Stack.  I embossed the silver strip around the eraser to make it look more like a real pencil and I inked all of the folds of the pencil with brown chalk.

Diaper Card

I am back today to show you another adorable baby project that I made with SVG Attic's files.

I made a diaper card using the Baby Boy set.  I cut the diaper invite at 8.5" wide for the card itself.  The circle on the front made by cutting the bottom, middle and car from the cupcake wrapper files in the Baby Boy set at 8.5" wide.  I added the stamped sentiment on a hand-cut banner and two diaper pin brads that are the Recollections brand.

I hope you have a wonderfully crafty day!
