Toil & Trouble....

This is what I have been working on lately...I have a Halloween swap that I am making cards for as well as a cute treat bag to share!

This treat bag uses new craft & chevron sacks from SU!'s new Holiday catalog.  The clothespin on the top is not SU!.  This is not my original design.  I did copy this project! 
 


 
Here is a close up of the medallion that I made using several punches and our new Chevron ribbon!  Love this ribbon!



Using the treat bag for inspiration, this is my Halloween swap card.  That Toil & Trouble set is so cute and is going to get me in trouble because I have to have it!  In addition, I used Crumb Cake cardstock, doilies and the new Chevron stamp for this card.

Hope you enjoy these projects!

Now, go be Creative!

Vintage Finds....

Recently, my husband and I started the task of going through some family storage units.  This is going to be a BIG project to get done.  Baby steps, I guess!

I found these baby shower cards for my husband's arrival way back in 19, uh, well, maybe I shouldn't go there!  These cards are small, sweet and in awesome condition!  Most of them were .10,as  indicated on the back of the cards. These are the kinds of things that make me so excited when I find them at Estate Sales, but these have so much more meaning since they were for my sweet husband!  Back then, it was a surprise if you were having a boy or girl!  It looks like most people went more towards a boy with their card choices!  Lots of blue!








I even found the Thank You card that his mom sent for all of the gifts received for her sweet baby boy! 


I know husband thinks I am crazy to LOVE stuff like this, but I always have!  What a great find!

Happy Anniversary!

This past week, my husband and I celebrated our 3rd wedding anniversary!  These are the beautiful and massive vase of flowers that he sent to me.  I wasn't home when they were delivered, so I had to go retrieve them from my neighbor who almost didn't let me leave with them!!



My picture doesn't do them justice...I didn't even take the time to clear the space before taking the pic!

Happy Anniversary Honey!
