Creating Mini Valentines for School

 

I loved making these fintastic school Valentine's Day cards for one of the teachers in my life.  She can pass out these cards and spread joy to the kids.  I used Lawn Fawn Fintastic Friends stamp set, but these can be created with any stamp set.  They are fun, quick and easy to make.  Check out my video below on how to mass produce them.  Thanks for stopping by and I hope you have a Fintastic Day!

Valentine's Day Blind Date Book 2025/Video with Instructions

 

I saw blind date books and thought it would be fun to create my own to give to the four avid readers in my life.  I did not want to have to do all those fancy folds with kraft or wrapping paper.  Therefore, I decided to create my own pockets and my own accessories.  I sent these out recently and they seem to be a hit.  The individuals were truly surprised.

I purchased my books on Pango.  A great place to get used books.  I used GoodReads for descriptions, as well as the cover of the book.  I also made sure to incorporate some of my 6 x 6 paper! Thanks for stopping by.

Have a Cozy Day - Concord & 9th

 









With the cold weather, my favorite thing to do is cozy up by the fire.  How about you?  These are just a few cards that I made with the Concord & 9th Fire Stamp and Bundle Die Set.  I actually made more of these cards, it was so fun.  It is so cold outside here that I thought it would be fun to send out some joy with these cards to others during the freezing January.  The sentiment inside reads: Have a Cozy Day!  I used Stickles to elevate the fire.  I distressed the logs with tea dye distress ink.  I created my own frame and used 6x6 paper to make the picture of the cow.  My new items was the paper pack and the square dies to make the frame. Thanks for stopping by and stay cozy!

Retro Oven Shaped Shaker Card and Tag/Ornament

 

The blue oven is an oven shaped card.  The red oven is a tag or ornament.  I enjoyed making both of these and especially making my own embellishments inside.  This is perfect for Christmas.  I am a vintage girl at heart so I love Retro.  The silver metallic makes the stoves look so real.  If you would like to see how to make these cards, check out the video below.  Thanks for stopping by.
