Giveaway everyday.... and a card!!!

Hello my crafty friends!  I wanted to let you know that Kassidy over at Inking It Up is having a Birthday Bash the entire month of June.  She is having a daily giveaway and showcasing some of her fabulous work as well as the work of many other super talented crafters.  I will also be a guest designer on June 15th and am sooo excited for this opportunity!!  Woo Hoo!! :)  You don't want to miss out on all the fun, so hop on over and take a look!!

Here's a card I made for a friend of mine.  No Cricut on this one, I decided to pull out some of my barely used Stampin Up stamps instead.  I like the way it turned out.. I hope you do too!! :)

Happy Easter Treat Bags

Hello everyone! I know it's not Easter anymore, but I haven't had time to post the treat bags I made for my family for Easter. I thought these came out soooo cute and just had to share! I couldn't decide if I like the bunny with the faux stitching or without, so I did some with, some without and one that had partial stitching!! LOL!   I would love to know what you think of them! Thanks so much for stopping by!
Have a Crafty Day!
