A Tisket A Tasket!


Ginny created some very cute baskets and other containers that we think are perfect for holding  sweet Easter treats...Using new Lifestyle Crafts spring themed dies and very colorful papers from My Mind's Eye...take a little peep...
Using the new magnetic Genius Platform helps to keep all your dies in place when cutting...
Ginny loves the texture and weight of these lovely papers...perfect for die cutting containers and pockets...and we love the beautiful and bright colors...turquoise, orange, yellow and lime...yummy....
Pretty embellishments add just a bit extra to your finished projects...
 
Ginny shares her tips on layering die cuts for extra dimension...
How adorable is this bunny treat bag...
And for the Monthly Club members...your March Kit includes the pieces to make the treat carrier and label....Ginny cleverly cut the tiny flowers out of double sided adhesive, adhered to a plastic egg and added glitter...how cute is that!

Sticker Style


We are very certain that you are never too old to play with stickers...and who can resist these lovely new sticker sheets from Penny Black...

Bright and colorful florals...



 Sassy and fashionable ladies...
And this sweet little one...Mimi...
 Barb was here on Saturday showing us how to make some beautiful cards with these gorgeous stickers...using coordinating papers, a bit of glitter, a brad or two, and of course some ribbon along with a cheerful stamped sentiment...
As you can see, you can create several cards from just one sticker sheet...




Thanks Barb...these are just fabulous!
