♥ ♥ ♥ALTERED TRINKET BOX♥ ♥ ♥






I altered this little wooden box, first I removed the latch and then using lime green solid paper for the box and a soft floral print for the top. I glued it all in place and then added a cream color ribbon and then put a thin lime green in the center of it . I then made a lime green bow for the top and added a pink rose.
I love doing these little boxes, they can be given for little gifts or even a thank you for a shower or wedding favor you can decorate to go with the occasion.

Have a very happy and safe Memorial day weekend. Please keep our men and woman in our military,police and firefighter in your prayers.

♥ ♥ ♥ Happy Anniversary ♥ ♥ ♥








I created this card for our Daughter and her Hubby's 5th Wedding Anniversary, I used cream colored paper from Michaels by Recollections. I then used a light green paper for the inside and I used my heart scalloped punch by Clever Lever Quick Borders. I added some floral shaped stones inside with a cream colored paper for a over lay with a Anniversary Blessing.
On the front of the card I added a pretty Butterfly by K&Company. I also used my Rubber stamps "Congratulations" and "Happy Anniversary" with my Green stamp pad.
I put a dark green ribbon down the left side of the card, I then added a Bow using 2 shades of Green Ribbon, attaching it with a green brad. and then added some mini green hearts along the side and around front of the card.
I hope you like this card. I love reading your comments. Thank you for Visiting my blog and do visit again soon.

♥ ♥A Priceless Mothers day card♥ ♥







This card is priceless my 3yr Old Grand Daughter made this sweet card for her Mom.
she loves to come into my craft room and make things. She is such a sweet loving little girl. She picked out all the things she wanted to use for her Mom's card, I helped her with the die cuts, she used my sizzix machine all by her self, and then I helped her use my quick borders craft punch. she put the ribbon through and glued everything in place. and then used my stamp and put it on the paper she picked out for her Mom.I know this will be a life time keepsake for her Mommy ( Jodee).
I hope you all liked Gracie's design and all her work she put into this card for her Mommy. thank you for visiting and do visit again soon, please leave a comment.I will make sure I read them to Gracie..
