Cutest Dang Bookmarks Ever!


I saw the idea to make these bookmarks and got so excited I couldn't stop making them.  First you take a 4X4" piece of card stock and score it diagonally on two of the sides from middle to middle to make a point.  Cut another square of card stock 2 3/4 X 2 3/4", then cut it in half diagonally to make two triangles. Adhere one triangle to the back of the bookmark to hold down the scored triangles (use the extra to make another bookmark LOL). Make sense?  Embellish the front as desired!

 Card stock, Paper:  Elegant Eggplant, Sweet Shop

Sweet Shop Stickers & Paper


The Sweet Shop designer series paper and matching accessories in the Occasions Mini are so bright and colorful.  Also in the Mini you'll find these fun Maze Game's.  I was so excited to get them and make fun birthday cards.  Kids don't usually care about the cards they receive for their birthday, so it's fun to add a little something interesting to grab their attention.  I did this card for a boy and I'll share my girl card soon!  The colors are Island Indigo, Lucky Limeade and Pool Party.  The cool thing about these mazes are that you can remove the back and add any paper, stamps or stickers you'd like.  I used some of the Sweet Shop paper and a cute cupcake sticker.

Birthday Calendar


My friends and I got together a few months ago and made these Birthday Calendars.  It was a lot of fun, but a lot of work.  Now I just need to finish it by writing in the birthdays.  I'm a little slow!  We liked how most of the pages turned out, but some we wished we could have done over.  Oh well!  I'll share the pages over the next few days. :)
