Sheer Perfection LO

I just finished up this scrapbook layout of Jayden. I got to use two of the new carts my husband got me for Christmas (he got me like 10 carts!! he's the best). These are pics from when Jayden was a newborn in the hospital. :D She's so big. We just finished celebrating her 1st birthday party with family on the first at Chuck E. Cheese at home in Washington. I'll hopefully get some pics up soon. We'll be celebrating her actual birthday on Jan 11 (her 1st birthday) at the Olive Garden here :)! She loves her Olive Garden Mac & Cheese!

I am entering this into the following challenges:

New Years bottle Sleeve

This week at SweetSassyDiva DT we were asked to make a New Years project! I made this sleeve with a little card. It fits perfectly around sparkling apple cider (or even wind bottles im sure). I cut this down to approx 10 inches x 3.5 inches in the blue (for the entire cover). I took some firework stamps and stamped them randomly around the blue sleeve with white and silver ink. I took a white envelope and cut it down to about 2.5 x 3 inches and inked the edges in blue, wrote the sentiment and free handed the blue fireworkds on the edges in blue Scribbles 3d paint. I then adhered the open side of the envelop and left the top open then glued the whole envelope down to make a little pocket. I made the card to go inside the pocket with some of the leftover blue. I stamped it with fireworkds the same way and wrote the centiments in white Scribbles 3d paint. The card its aprox 2.25x2.75 when folded in half. The top is some silver tissue paper wrapped around and tied on with a blue ribbon. simple and super cute hope you enjoy!

Have a great day and thanks for stoppin' by!

Stocking Stuffer Boxes

This week at SweetSassyDiva DT we were asked to make a last minute stocking stuffer! I made these little boxes.

Recipe:
12x12 blue, green & white cardstock
Sure Cuts A Lot

Cricut

Adhesive

Clear Plastic sheet

ink pad (your choice of color)

Instructions:

Made the box file to cut in SCAL.. it's a plain box and I added different shapes to the top in SCAL and cut them out. I then scored them, folded them, adhered them together. I inked the edges one in black in and the other 2 in silver ink. I cut down my clear plastic to fit over the shapes on the top and adhered them to the inside of the lid. Simple. I put some truffles inside the boxes, tied some ribbon around some (to hold them closed) and stuffed them inside the stockings..

Thanks for stoppin' by and I hope you all have a very Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays!!
