Cracker Style Treat Box's

 Today Is Thursday and It's also Valentines Day. On this day last year. I was very sick and had been for several days. I had to go to the emergency room. Had to have Emergency Surgery the day after. After being gone for 2 months I finally got to come home. Doesn't seem like It's been a whole year.

I feel so blessed to be alive and to be able to spend this Valentines Day with my loved ones.  

Wanted to share a few more Valentine projects that I made. Made these for my Grand Children to put some of there candies In. 
















  These are Cracker Style Box's. I don't think I had ever made any before. I didn't embellish them very much because It's not something that they will be keeping.

These were made using the Envelope Punch Board. If you don't have one yet, I highly recommend getting one. 

On my grand daughter's I did use a heart border punch on the ends

I found these on youtube, so If you would like to make some, head on over there. Look up Linda Parker. In the video she also creates two smaller boxes to put inside the cracker box. They are so cute!

 (Love her Video's)!!! And If you love making boxes and bags as much as I do, you will love them to. She Is so talented.

These cracker boxes were so easy to make. Hope you try making them. 

Well I guess that all from me today. Hope you have a nice day and Happy Valentines Day to you all.

Vintage Rose Valentine Card

 Hello there, It's early Tuesday morning. The grandkids spent the night. They just got on the bus. 
Heavy rains today and then going to get high winds later this afternoon. I can tell It's not as cold. Suppose to get around 40 today. I am so tired of the bitter cold. 

I'm so glad that you could stop by. It's almost Valentines day. Hopefully you have your Valentine projects completed. 


For today I want to share a card that I made. I really enjoy making Valentine Cards and I really enjoyed making this one.






At first when thinking how I wanted to make this card I planned on making It a regular A2 sized rectangle card. 

But as I was doing my sketch of what I wanted I decided on maybe a circle or oval would look prettier. So I decided on the oval. I just think It gives It more of a vintage feel.

I do think It turned out pretty and love that embossed border.
I made this Card for my Mom, It will be going out In the mail today. I Love making her Cards and I think she will Love this one.

Here Is a list of Items used-

Oval Die Cut shapes- Wild Card Cartridge
Stamp Sets- Vintage Rose (First Time using this stamp set) and Itty Bitty Background
                Cardstock- Red Riding Hood and Whisper White                                     
          Inks-  Ruby Red, Pink Pirouette, Always Artichoke and          Mellow Moss                                                                 
                            Embossing Folder- Paper Lace 2                                                               
White Dot Tulle Ribbon from Stampin Up
Three DiamondGems


I hope you enjoyed seeing my card, I will be sharing two more Valentine projects on Valentines Day. Hope you can make It back.

Little gift Bag and Boxes

 Hello, Hope you are having a good day. Glad you could stop by. Lots of rain here. The winds are suppose to get very strong this evening with heavy rain. 

On my last post I shared a birthday card I made for my Grand Daughter.
Today I thought I would post a few pictures of the small Boxes that I made to put some of her gifts In.

The first one Is a small purse that I created using the forever young Cartridge. Also used was a stamp set called Hello Friend from Fiskars.











Next Is a long box that I found on youtube. It was perfect for the mascara that I got her. Super easy to make. You can find this box on youtube. Look up Linda Parker (Galaxy Ripple Chocolate Treat Box.) Love her channel.







The next little Wedge Shaped box I found on youtube as well. Wanted something to put her necklace In and thought this one would be perfect and It was.





I did forget to crop this picture. Oops!  The stamp is from the stamp set called Punch Bunch from S.U. Then cut it out with a stiched square die. The Designer Paper Is retired from Stampin Up.

If you would like to see how this is made you can find It it on youtube. The youtuber's name Is Crafty Caroline.


I Love making Box's and Bags. I really do and love that these were so easy. Hopefully you will give them a try to.

Thanks again for stopping by. Hope you stop back by. I will be posting some Valentine projects very soon. 



 Have a Super Day and God Bless!
