Gifts that I have made lately

I had an order for some monogrammed note cards and filled the order today.

These are some hand sanitizers that I made up to put into the girls goodie bags for Faith's birthday party. I figured that we will keep the swine flu away!

While we were dealing with the death of Brent's brother we had several people do some very nice things for us and I wanted to give them a little thank you gift.

Faith's Birthday

Faith and Gracie

Faith and her sewing machine!

Faith turns 10. We had a party at the skating rink.

Desk items for teachers

A couple of different items I made for the kids soon to be teachers.

Here they are in the bag!

I thought that I would make myself some desk items also. I don't make myself very much stuff.

VBS volunteer gifts

Here are 2 of the 5 VBS volunteer gifts that I made for the volunteers for each day. The first picture is 3 pieces of Hershey's milk chocolate nuggets wrapped with paper. I got the idea from the "pink stamper".

This is just a water bottle with a hanging card with the same paper. Can't remember where the idea came from. I have seen several different ones online.

Having fun making cards

These cards I made at a Stampin Up party! This was the first SU party that I had been to. I had just started making cards not too long ago and thought that it would be fun to go and learn more about card making. We also made a cute card box to put them in but did not get a pic of it.

Made these 2 about 2 weeks ago while at a friends house.

The card that says 'Thinking of You" is so far my fav.

Here are 2 BDay cards. A little different but close to the same.

Two baby cards. They are not my fav. I will be trying to think of something else for baby cards.

Birds and owls seem to be big right now.

So now I have a little stash on hand so I don't have to scramble to make a card quickly when a birthday comes up or I just need a card. I have really enjoyed making these cards. I always said that I would never make cards but it is a lot of fun. Never say Never.

Some thank you gifts

Here are some little 'Thank You' favors that I made today. It is a post it cover. I got the idea from a blog "chic'n Scratch". Very easy and was quick. I got about 4 done in 30 mins.

A New Craft!

Made Faith some flip flops. Got Faith some flip flops for less than $2 dollars at Hobby Lobby when they were half off. I made some bows and attached them to the flip flop with Velcro. Very simple! When we were in Pensacola we saw some at a store that were pretty pricey. And of course I said I can make those. Now I just need to start working on some more bows to change out.
