Another Paper Purse

2011-02-01T10:37:00.000-05:00

Here is another Paper Purse that I made the same size as the one before...large enough to hold Close To My Heart Stamp Sets! I gave this one to another great friend of mine as a gift. These are so much fun to make!

Paper Purse

2011-02-01T10:25:00.000-05:00

I think this could quickly become an obsession! I love making these paper purses. I made this one for a friend of mine and gave her a gift of stamps inside. I made the dimensions large enough to hold Close To My Heart Stamp Sets. Supplies were from my personal stash.

I would like to wish everyone a Very Merry Christmas!

Graduation Gifts

2010-06-01T09:27:00.005-04:00

Do you have a special graduate that you would like to get a one of a kind gift for? The Memory Keeper box from Close To My Heart may just be the thing for you. It is a durable magnetic closure box that is designed to be the perfect fit to store and protect that cap and gown. The dimensions are just made for the mortar board and this box is even deep enough to add a couple of extra things, as well. Should your graduate not wish to use it for their cap and gown, it is still a great gift to hold special momentos from their school years. These boxes take just minutes to cover and with your special touch, can be unique from any other. Here are 3 samples of ones that I have recently made. I hope that you enjoy them!

Valentine Card Birdhouse Box

2010-03-20T08:54:00.002-04:00

Our local homeschool organization hosted a Valentine Exchange and held a contest for each child to create a unique box to hold his/hers valentine's. My oldest daughter created this lovely birdhouse from a cracker box. All products are from my scrappin' stash and she used the Cricut to help cut her grass and mailbox. The birds, branch, leaves and hearts are felt. I thought she did a really neat job. (She took first place!)

{I know this is late for Valentine's Day...we've had a lot going on and I'm just now getting to post some things...sorry.}
