Cutest Favors EVER!

So one of the newest and favorites from Stampin' Up this year is their Nugget Wrappers and MatchBox.  Using this cute set a die cut for the box and some Address Labels I made just the cutest favors for Taylor's Birthday Party.  The possibilities are endless with these wrappers.  They are even coming out with more occasions in their Holiday Mini!  OMG!  I'm in heaven!

Hair Candy!

So I've been getting a little more crafty.  My daughter Taylor has grown some more hair and I of course had to go out and buy a whole bunch of barrettes for her.  Then I got them home and realized I didn't have anything to put them in.  So I bought a small jar from Walmart for approximately $3 and dressed it up with some stampin' up punches, accessories, and designer paper.  I LOVE how it turned out!

Getting My Craft On!

So this past week the new Stampin' Up! yearly catalogue was released.  I got mine in the mail on Friday.  So in Love!!  Found so many cute ideas.  Now that we have a nap schedule somewhat under control.  I'm armed and ready to get my craft on.  Thursday and Friday next week and then the week of my birthday are crafting days.  So excited!  So get ready to see lots of cute ideas!  =)  If you go to my school you may see some for sale!  =)

Easter Basket

So last night, yes one day AFTER Easter, I know, I made two little Easter Baskets for two special people to Taylor and I for today.  I used Certainly Celery, Pretty In Pink and an old DSP pattern I had laying around.  They turned out pretty cute if I do say so myself.  I can take no credit I got the idea from Chic n' Scratch.  Great blog, if you are stamper, btw.

March Workshop Cards

My monthly workshop is this Sunday.  Here are the three cards we will be making.  I can't take any credit for the designs, I snagged them from others and tweaked the colors a bit.  However they all turned out great!
