Teacher Appreciation Gift Tags

Hello!

Hope this finds all of you enjoying some beautiful days. Once the rain stopped here, the past couple days have been absolutely glorious!

I had the pleasure to create some gift tags for our grandchildren's teachers for their upcoming Teacher Appreciation Week.  A while back, on an on-line shopping adventure, a fun set of dies jumped right into my cart.  Seriously!  For reals!  This Die-Namics Lip Balm Frame die set from My Favorite Things seemed perfect for a fun teacher tag. I found some pretty cute bee paper and stickers at Hobby Lobby, then computer generated all the printing.  Here's how they turned out:

Here's how the tag looks hanging over a bottle of Bath and Body Works.

Here are all 15 of them!

I've also seen this die used with mini candies, like those teensy M and M's....how cute is that?

Hope these made you smile!

Hugs and blessings,

Patti J.

P.S. I'm off this week on another adventure.  I'm proudly packing my Grandma Hat and going to Salt Lake City. I'll meet DD there, and I get to keep the baby (squeal!!!) while momma presents at a conference.  Happy happy, joy joy!  Anyway, I'll be MIA again for a week.  Will miss you all!

Thanks for stopping by!

It's Bugaboo Week at Iris' Spot!

Good morning everyone!

If this post looks familiar, it's because it IS! I posted this last week, and the challenge just begins this week. Just another reason for the OOPS on the card! Sorry, Iris - when you said the picture was due on Monday, I thought you meant LAST Monday! lol...

It's time for Challenge #4 at Iris' Spot!

The challenge this week, should (WHEN) you decide to accept it is to use Black, White, plus two other colors of your choice!

Iris' sponsor this week is Bugaboo Stamps, and Jodie will be giving

one lucky winner SEVEN digi's!!!

So...what are you waiting for? Hurry over and join in the challenge!

Above is my card for Challenge #4. I used black, white, pink, and brown. It's probably not very clear in the photo, but not only is the bench brown, but my ribbon is brown as well.

I had to use the OOPS sentiment for two reasons...(three now!), 1. because, I botched it while trying to do the nestie outside the box thing at Shirley's, and 2. because it looked to me like this little pulled a petal off of the flower and was thinking "oops"! Of course 3. is listed above :)

The image is from "Oh, No She Didn't", one of The Angel Company's newest sets. The sentiment is Stampendous. All coloring is done with Copics on a girls night out at my friend Shirley's! She has a tote full, and I just can't resist coloring when I go there :) The edge punch is EK Success, and the clouds are Die-namics, by MFT Stamps. I won the cloud die a few weeks ago in a Blog Candy from Steph C. (wahoo!)

Hope you like it!

Thanks for stopping by!
