More Treats!

Hey, everyone!

I started a new job just a short time before my birthday, maybe a week or two, and was very surprised to be included in part of a birthday celebration they were having for a co-worker who was having a birthday close to mine! I thought it was really sweet of them to do that! One of my co-workers is a scrapper and stamper, too. I love chatting with her about Copics, ATG guns and more! She is a delight to work with and she fills everyone's mailboxes with goodies and special treats for their birthdays and holidays. Just look at the sweet little treat she left for me in my mailbox for my birthday!

Isn't this little box the cutest thing ever? It is adorable!! Just check out the inside:
Kathy is super creative and I love how she made this fun little box in my favorite colors (how did she know??) to hold some yummy Ghiradelli chocolate squares. Yum! I wanted to make a thank you card for her kindness. I knew right away I wanted to use the little girl from the Brighten Your Day stamp set (T3263)! I just love that fun stamp set!!

I used my Wizard (K308) and Labels 1 Nestabilities (K300) to create the background. I ran the brown cardstock through my Wizard (K308) with my Cuttlebug Swiss Dots embossing folder for more texture. To paper piece her hair bows, collar, shirt and pants I used the double-sided Emma Soar With It Collections designer paper (V856). I used the coordinating Emma Cardstock (B326) for the card base and background. I colored her hair with my Bic Mark-It's for some shine and then her skin was colored with my Copics.
Those shapes make a fun little insert to leave a message! The sentiment says You're so thoughtful! I'm so thankful! That comes from the same stamp set, Brighten Your Day (T3263). Speaking of thank you cards...I created some thank you note cards for customers that placed an order with me. I miss getting to do that but right now my stamping supplies are in storage so I am really limited with what I can do! Take a look at these:
I used my Nesties Label 1 on the front of these, too. The sentiment "for you" on the front is from Tag Tidbits (T-1186). These cards were created using our new double-sided Maggie designer paper (V847) and coordinating Maggie cardstock (B326).

Hope you enjoy seeing these fun projects and my birthday treat! I will update again soon with some more photos. I am eager to get into our new house so I can set up a new craft space for me and I am really excited about the possibilities! Until next time...

Angel Hugs,
