Because You Care and Gold Soiree

Today is all about the paper.  And I couldn’t decide on which combinations to use.  The Gold Soiree specialty designer series paper is more than wonderful.  The other sides of these two papers are equally awesome.  You will get to see those tomorrow, so come back to check.

Can you see the obvious glare on the paper?  I know my photos are less than ideal at times, but the glare is on purpose.  I wanted you to see the glossy reflection.  This paper is so smooth and glossy and just fancier than the rest.  Hence the specialty title.

The colors in this set are some of my favorite.  Especially calypso coral.  Can I just say that in my last house I painted my laundry room just a few shades lighter than this.  It was called marmalade.  I got teased, but it was so super happy in there.

As you have noticed, I have been creating extra birthday cards.  My mother-in-law is so good about sending out cards.  So I keep her supplied.  Last night she picked up six.  She only needed three this month, but couldn’t decide and took six.  So cute.  Now I have to get back to work!

Hope you have a super creative day!  Don’t forget to come back tomorrow to see how the other side looks.

Because You Care Workshop Gifts

I love getting ready for workshop, especially the special gift I make my club members.  Others attend just to make the projects, but don’t necessarily order. Having fun making pretty things doesn’t have to be about buying, but they often go hand in hand.  Especially when it comes to me.

These cute little gifts contain a huge spool of sadly retired pacific point ribbon.  You can still get it in other color choices though.  It is really awesome!  The designer paper is Painted Blooms.  I really can’t get enough of this paper.  I truly am a floral girl at heart, thanks to my lovely mother.

Well, I would love to chat, but I need to get out the door.  Literally, in fifteen minutes.  Yikes!  Get off the computer already!

Have a creative day!

Because You Care

Back to a Valentine’s card.  It is a pretty simple card, but I loved how it turned out.  The frame around the sentiment is separate so you can put different phrases inside.  The stamp set comes with four different choices, plus other elements.  Really a great hostess set!

I have decided that I am in love with the seam binding ribbon.  It makes really pretty bows, knots, and is easy to attach to stuff.  And it comes in lots of color choices.

The photos are a bit over exposed, but I was in a rush.  When am I not though, really.  Just like right now.  Have to go!

Have a creative day!
