it's awesome! you will love it!  Come and drop me a note and tell me what you think of the new digs!

Love is in the Air...

... and on my craft table!  Here are a couple of little cards I made up on Tuesday before my girls came home from school:

 The first one I made using the Hearts a Flutter stamp and framelit set and some More Amore DSP

This one is also using the Hearts a Flutter bundle as well as the Valentine promotion, labels framelits and the Vintage Wallpaper embossing folder.

What I am really linking right now is how fast I can pull out some paper and this stamp and framelit bundle and whip up a quick cute card.  I've been on a valentine kick lately and I think I'm going to use all these cards to send out to my girlfriends in the mail.  Who wouldn't like that?!

Give a little love

As promised, here are two valentines I made with my girlfriends this weekend.  We had an impromptu girls' night complete with cheesy poofs, wine, and crafting (though, not together... well, the wine and crafting went together ;)


Here's what we came up with :

Cute and simple right?  These are made using the Hearts a Flutter stamp set and framelets.  The top card is using the new Vine Street embossing folder that's available for FREE!!!! through Sale-A-Bration  and the embossing on the bottom card is my new favorite Honeycomb embossing folder.  I am seriously using this on everything!  Also note my obsession with twine ;)

I'm having a really good time pinning valentine ideas over on Pinterest and I think I might just make a bunch and send them out to girlfriends and family.  Who doesn't like mail?  If you want to follow my boards, I'm on Pinterest as Jeannethequeen :)

Better late than never

Off to see some friends today that we were supposed to see over the holidays, but due to rampant illness and just general malaise, we're just getting there now.  As you may have guessed, I made some cute little gifts to bring with us.

The first is a little jar of hot cocoa mix with mini marshmallows.  it's in an 'upcycled' jelly jar, but looks way fancier now:

Next I have a cute little stack of note cards.  Who can't use a last minute birthday or thank you card?

And finally, I have something large and wrapped for the kiddies... I'm not telling what is in the package, but it's something super fun to jump on that is not a sofa ;)

I also finally gave out some Christmas cookies that had been hiding in my freezer for almost a month!  These came out super cute as well:

Now that we've finally gotten through Christmas here, maybe it'll be time to start on Valentines Day.  Stay posted :)
