Papaya Collage Gift Set!


This sweet gift set makes a pretty birthday presentation!  The uniquely made hinged gift box is perfect for holding a small treasure or candy treat.  The gift card slider is a super simple, but elegantly coordinated way to present a gift card.  The pretty Papaya Collage birthday card brings the set all together!
  

Here's a picture of the hinged box opened up!  I made it so it's from just one piece of card stock - and the lid is still attached.  And it fits SIX Ghiradelli squares just perfectly!  But my MOST favorite part of the whole project is the Natural Composition Specialty Designer Papers - "LOVE... them!!"  They are a card stock weight paper - and Absolutely just awesome!
 

And here's the gift card slider with the inside pulled out!  I like how the gift card is a perfect fit on the tag!!

If you want more info about the tutorial for all this - and Yes! it was made by ME!!, but you can get more scoop over at Craft Project Central!

Quick Thank You!


This quick thank you card was one of a set of twenty that I whipped up in about twenty minutes!  My daughter asked me to make her some thank yous that she could mail out, and she just wanted a 'thank you' stamped on a blank card.  Well, I couldn't do it that plain, but adding just a strip of Primrose Petals card stock and a piece of the Patio Party paper helped give the card a little personality. - Super quick and easy too!

Even More Graduations!


So here's a graduation card I made for a friend to give.  It's very similar to the card I made HERE (and you can find the tutorial there for the graduation cap).  

Since the school colors weren't very girly, but the card was for a girl, I decided to use the scallop circle for the background of the graduation cap.  And this time I used the Curly Cute set for the congratulations!  Other than that, it was a CAS of my own card!

I love it when you can make a great card without having to re-create a whole new layout!
