Gifts to Give Week I


I have so many gift that I just might continue this all Month.
This week I am showing some boxes for gift cards. If your anything like me and feel gift cards are impersonal...doesn't mean I don't like to receive them!
I feel they need a little something to go with em.
Say maybe some Chocolate!
This box fits a gift card and some chocolate sticks I found at my local Pharmacy.
The Box folds flat for storage and another use at another time.

This weeks boxes were going to be a class I hoped to have this month, they are just perfect for the little things and a gift card.
I created them with a little inspiration.
This week I will be giving for a day one of the rough draft ( in Pencil and scanned still working on the Professional one's, hence the reason for no class this month, but for sure next month) PDF's of one of the boxes you will see,
All you have to do is request it.

OK it will be Fridays box so on Fri email me or leave a comment with your request.
Happy Monday!

Hey Y'all

Nor' easter our part of the world got.
Virginia Beach in case your wondering.
Flooding was the worst I have ever seen in this area and I have lived here all my life.
That includes the Hurricanes we occasionally get.
BUT! not as bad as some floods I know some of you have been through or witnessed.
I feel for you all cause that is some scary stuff!

On a lighter note, A lot of house work and stampin was done which has put me a head
Yay!
I made these simple one layers for a friend for her Birthday, she gives a lot of Christmas cards. Just a little masking, dry embossing and a box to put it all in.
Took me 30 mins to make 10 cards.
Need help designing your cards this year...
Let me know.
Off to my Shoe box swap...show you that card Friday.
