Teacher Gifts

I was going through pictures last night and found these. Brandon wanted to give gifts to three of his teachers, and I forgot I had taken pictures of them. We just put a Scentsy Room Spray and Hanging Freshener in a cello bag and stamped a card to tie to it. He wrote a sweet message for each one. He had some great teachers this year!

These stamps are from the Thank you Kindly and Charming sets.
During July, Scentsy will be bringing back 20 scents from years past. They were voted on by consultants and customers and the 20 winners will be brought back in "bar form" for one month only!

Leafy Thanks

I quickly made this thank you card last night. I think I'm getting rusty! I need to stamp more, that is for sure! This one didn't require much stamping, although I did a little on the inside. I used the Big Shot for the leaf cutouts. I don't see much stamping in my future for the next few months. Two boys graduating, and LOTS of stuff going on. It will be fun, but crazy and busy!

Spring/Fall Card

The birds remind me of spring, but I made this card last fall, with fall colors. This stamp is in a cute Level 1 hostess set this year called Of the Earth.

You'll notice I have my card propped up on some Scentsy bars. My open house is coming up soon. I'll be selling all my bars and bricks that I have in stock for 50% off due to the new design that recently came out. Out with the old, in with the new! For more Scentsy Open House info, email me!

Merry February

On a very windy Halloween Day, our friend took a few pictures of our family. We didn't last long! We were all freezing and trying our best to keep our teeth from chattering. There were only a couple where my hair wasn't standing straight up in the air! I finally stood against this tree and it helped a little. It was quite an experience!

I stamped the snowflakes on the cards clear back at the beginning of November and then life got incredibly busy. I didn't end up getting back to them until the end of January, so they ended up being Groundhog Day cards. Oh well!

B's Valentines

We've been working on Brandon's Valentine's the last couple of days. This is how they turned out...

I got to help with his class party today after going out to lunch with the Band Moms. They are so much fun and such great company. It was an awesome day!

This was Brandon's last class party ever. Moving on to sixth grade means the end of parties. :( They had a great time.

Nature's Secret

My stampin' buddy, Teri came over last week and we stamped. Well, she stamped and I stared at stamps and finally came up with this. She made a bunch of cute things, and I only managed this. But, I did decide on the basic design for my Christmas card, and that is a MAJOR accomplishment this far away from Christmas for me! We are going to start on those very soon and I can't wait!

For the card pictured above, I stamped it in Soft Suede and colored the flower with pastels. The background stamp is one of my favorites, called Sanded. Thanks to Teri for taking the picture and sending it to me!
