Whew....getting back to 'normal' ???

Howdy!

How are you? It's rainy, and oh, so dreary here in Mo. It's been a perfect day to be in my girl cave, playing with paper. I'm actually working on some things to share with you in June!!!

Things are slowly getting back into a normal routine here, but I still have SO many things to share that I created but never posted. I'm going to attempt to clear out that file in the next week or so. You can consider this your warning - I am going to flood the blog with photos and very little talk.

Enjoy!!! Ask questions if something jumps out at you :)

Thanks for popping in!

See you soon,

April Workshop

Hi there!

April was a pretty busy month! I made 20 of these for the grandkids teachers...

They were filled with cute 'shreds' of pink and green, and goodies! I designed the box to the size I wanted. The sweet die set was purchased from Taylored Expressions. It's one of their 'sack-it' sets. Love how easy it was! There was a cute little sentiment box added at the bottom of the box, between the bunny feet.

Shirley and I had an April workshop, as well. The first one filled up right away, so we scheduled one a few days later, which also filled up. We had a great time with some very fun creative ladies! Some were brand new paper crafters, and we loved seeing their smiles after they made cool stuff!

Here's what they made:

This card uses stamps and dies from an older Die-Versions set. It was one of my designs.

Cuteness....! This was Shirley's 3-D design. It's a popcorn sleeve. I think her stamps were from Crackerjack Palace.

This was one of my designs - it is a W card.

Here's another adorable card design by Shirley. This uses stamps from Repeat Impressions.

Here is Shirley's last design. It's such a pretty card, and the flap is held closed with a tiny magnet.

This project uses Stampin'Up supplies.

That's all I have for today!
Thanks for stopping by on this glorious Saturday!
If I don't see you tomorrow, Happy Easter!!!

Hugs and blessings,
Patti J.

Catching up once again!

Hi there!

I'm happy to say that the weather in MO is drop dead GORGEOUS! Hope you are enjoying some pretty days, as well. Things here are budding out, turning green, we've mowed twice already, and temps are in the 70's!

Here are some things I've created, but not had time to post. All are clean and simple creations....enjoy! If you have any questions, give me a shout-out!

That's all for today - hugs and blessings from me to you all!

April and Texture...

Happy April, everyone!

Wow, this is my Medicare month! Where have the past 50 years gone?  Lol...it's a beautiful day today in Missouri - hope it's nice where you are. Still chilly, but OH MY, that sunshine rocks my world!

The monthly challenge at Scor-Pal, is Texture, and of course, more than one fold.

I chose to make a fun candy box. This little box works perfectly for the flatter candies, like the Dove chocolates I used. The box was made, and then I added a panel on the top that I embossed with a Happy Birthday folder for texture.

For my project, I used: Scor-Pal Eighths, and Scor-Tape 3/8".

Here is the box...

We hope to see your creations with texture in our 'More Than One Fold', Scor-Pal challenge!

We also have a ton of inspiration in the Projects section of the Scor-Pal website and also on our Pinterest Board to help you get creative! 

Happy April!
