You Always Do For Others…

The people in our lives that give endlessly, they are so awesome!  They deserve much more than something like this, but always appreciate it.  Someone has to something nice for them, right?

You Always Do For Others...

My school secretary is just that person.  She even keeps the little containers I make her gifts in.  She has a cute little collection.  This one is a bit larger than others I have given her, but she deserves it!  The beginning of school is always so hectic.

One whole sheet of rich razzelberry for this gift bag.  Doesn’t it look lovely?  I didn’t have a project in mind, so I just reached to my paper files with my eyes closed, pulled the first file and there it was.  I then turned to my punches and grabbed the first one I focused on.  That would be the confetti hearts border punch.  The rest just fell into place.

I did my favorite sponging and opted not to layer the base.  Sometimes my fronts tend to curl a bit at the edges when I layer cardstock on cardstock with gift bags.  So, after I punched and sponged I used tombo liquid multipurpose glue to get to the edges well to make sure it stayed down nicely.  Perfect job.

A little matching cotton ribbon, subtle but still there, and the gift bag was done! Now I have the pleasure of getting the perfect treats and a gift to go inside.  That will be a fun little activity for sure.  Sea salt chocolates and maybe a lovely lotion.  Sounds nice.

Have a creative day!

B.Y.O.P. Grad Card

It is that time of year again.  Graduation.  Not just high school, but university and the like.  It seems like I need a fleet of these this year.  How exciting is that?

B.Y.O.P. Grad Card

These particular ones are done in my local high school theme.  We are the Marysville Indians, and yes, our colors are orange and black.  Do you like how I tied all of that together?  Me too!

B.Y.O.P. Grad Card

You can’t read the inside sentiment as well, but it says ‘Congratulations GRAD’.  Just right.  The stamp set this came from is all about making fun and pretty cards when the gift will be a gift card.  It is always nice to have a wonderful card to wrap your gift card in.

B.Y.O.P. Grad Card

I know a couple of special Marysville Indians heading off to university this fall that could use a gift card or two.  Now to pick the right ones.

Have a creative day!

Part 2 with Gift Cards as Promised

These little cards are just so cute.  And yes, all eight of them do fit nicely in yesterdays box project.  It was hard not to share them together, but I managed.

Part 2 with Gift Cards

I thought the cards were perfectly sized to write a tiny note and put in a gift card.  This would be a great stash to have on hand.  The cards were made simply with 1/4 of a page of card stock and then scored in half.  That way I was able to make all of the card fronts from one sheet of whisper white.

Part 2 with Gift Cards

I stamped the whole page and then chopped it into eight pieces.  How easy is that?  It was super easy,no questions.

Now, you need to go try something fun like this.  Have a creative day!
