THANK YOU!


TEXTURE, 3-D AND GLITTER


I love to say thank you with a handmade card.  I think it shows how much you care because you can make it personal.  I try to use their favorite colors, designs, and themes.

While scanning the Jolee's boutique stickers at Michael's, I saw these adorable cherry blossom stickers.  I noticed them because they were 3-D and had tiny pearls and glitter accents.  I HAD to buy them.  I wasn't sure what I was going to use them on but I had to buy them.  Then when I was leaving the aisle, I saw a Sampler Pack from CANVAS HOME BASICS in pinks.  It caught my eye because of the pretty papers and especially the pink burlap.  Then I realized the stickers would look great with the papers and this card was created.

HAPPY 1ST DAY OF SCHOOL!

It's that time of year again.  Kids are picking out their favorite school supplies, deciding what to wear for their first day, hoping they like their teachers and they don't get too much homework.

I found these in the kids' craft section at Michaels.
A little girl named Lillian is starting kindergarten very soon and I wanted to surprise her with a bright poster to make her day extra special.  Her favorite colors are pink and purple so I used pink and purple alphabet stickers for the wording.  I also found some really cool felt flower stickers to add dimension and brightness.


Family and friends can add their best wishes or dates in the white space of the poster to make it more personal!





I hope Lillian loves her poster and has an awesome first day of kindergarten!
