TGIF

Hey, everyone!

Thank goodness it is Friday, huh? Are you all ready for the weekend? As long as it isn't raining this weekend, I would like to get outside and rake the leaves. It is so much fun but a LOT of work to rake our leaves. I love the fall season and the falling leaves are so beautiful but they are getting really deep so it's time I scoop them all up into piles by the road for the city guys to come and pick them all up!

As I promised, I have the final two 3x3 cards finished and ready to share with you. I had a lot of fun coming up with designs for a card on this scale. I even decided to dress up an RSVP pen with some decorative paper and ribbon for a full set of fun! I'm working on some envelopes and think I may have adapted an idea that might work...we shall see! So without further adieu here are the two cards I finished along with the complete set!
Don't forget to check out Christina's cards and see what all she has been creating in her little corner of the world! Leave her a comment, she always enjoys reading them!

Last night was my last class to teach at Memory Lane Scrapbooking store. I had a lot of fun with two great ladies who seemed to enjoy the fun cards and envelopes we made together! We made a cute little cup card that I thought was so much fun! The 3D cup is a little more bulky than a regular card and since stuffing it into a regular envelope would squish the cup, we made an envelobox for it! It fits inside perfectly without smashing it! Our other project was to make a never-ending winter-themed card. It was so much fun to learn how to make these. I had various sources for inspiration and direction. These end up measuring 6" squared so that is the size envelope we made. How did we make these great envelopes? We used The Enveloper! I love it and you can make any size envelope you'd like from any patterned paper or even wrapping paper as one lady mentioned tonight at the class. You can also add photos to the never ending card to make a fun little holiday coffee table book for all your guests to look at and have fun flipping through it over and over!

I enjoyed coming up with these fun projects for classes and many enjoyed seeing them, as well. It always makes me feel good when the store owners share customer comments with me. I thought I would go ahead and share the projects with you all here. It was so much fun to make these things and I really enjoyed sharing my fun creations with others!
I hope you enjoyed all the projects I shared with you today! Have a wonderful Friday! Enjoy your weekend and check back here at Hoosier Card Angel's Creations as I always have so much to share!
Hugs,

BLOG CANDY WINNER!!!

Hey, everyone!
We had two really great entries for this Blog Candy. Both were really super and I liked them a lot. Unfortunately there is only ONE Birthday Party in a Box, so I had to make a decision. Before I announce the winner, let's see what she won:




This Birthday Party in a box includes:
  • a box of Little Debbie Fudge Brownies with English Walnuts
  • a package of Kool-Aid pink lemonade packets
  • Happy Birthday balloons in assorted colors
  • Cake Mate party candles "Confetti" which are really festive, I might add LOL
  • a rubber stamp from The Angel Company that I selected
  • a treat pouch for most of the goodies
  • and a handmade birthday card
In order to participate in the blog candy you had to make a card for a baby boy! The card made by Christina Wernstrum is so adorable and so that is the one I chose. It opens up to say Hip, Hip, Hooray, It's Your Special Day! And then that flap opens up to say Happy Birthday! You can see her card here!



And since the other card is also fabulous, I will be sending a little treat to the runner-up, as well. Kimberly Lempfert made a really great card that you can see here. I love those cute little monkeys playing and hanging from the Happy B-day sign!


Thank you both for participating. It was so much fun and I hope you enjoyed it! You will each receive something from me this coming week!


It's already after midnight here in Indiana, so that means my baby boy is 1 year old....well at 9:09 a.m. he will be officially one full year old!!!! Awww! I may cry! Here are the little treat pouches every family will get (stuffed with cookies) as a little party favor for celebrating with us!


I think they turned out cute. I love the stamp image and it's fun to color! We're making these pouches along with recipe cards and a recipe box at my next class at Memory Lane Scrapbook store in Bedford, Thursday, August 28! Hope to see you there if you can make it!


Hugs,
