Simple Design for a Simple Weekend

My weekend was mostly spent out and about with friends (on Friday evening), and my husband, little pooches, and camera over Saturday and Sunday [in the heat I might add]. But I did grab some crafting time to design a card for a friend of mine that has a birthday just around the corner.

This is what I came up with. I liked the simplicity of the design so much, that I went ahead and replicated it several times, but for other purposes...

Such as Get Well, Friendship, and Thinking of you.

Here's another meant to bring a smile to someone a little under the weather:

It's a versatile set that I find myself going back to it over and over again for so many special occasions!

Baker John

Totally scrumptious, this bread. John is home from college right now and in-between hours of aimless gaming, he must be thinking of good food. He trolled my cookbook case and pulled a very old Italian bread cookbook out and VOILA....filled our house with the wonderful aroma of rosemary. His first loaf.

Big Birthday Celebration

Are you here having fun hopping along with 3GirlJAM in celebration of Julie's sister's big birthday year? What a great little cyber party we're having! (she's really a young thing, but she's having a great year) Well, if not, you should be hopping along (I'll tell you why in a moment). There are some really wonderful birthday ideas from all of us on the design team...and including Julie's two girls, who are also having fun celebrating their aunt's birthday. If you need to go back to the beginning, head over to the 3GirlJAM blog to get started. Otherwise.... Here's my card in celebration her special year! I used blue crinkle ribbon from the newly released Red,White,Blue Bundle. It's such a nice shade of blue! The white has bits of the red and blue in it (and I love the ribbon when it's like that)...and the red is also pretty awesome...like marachino cherries.

Stylish Gift Bag

Today I have the above project featured over on the Pinque Peacock blog. (go visit!) I love how it turned out. It is a relatively simple design, but is sturdy and large enough to hold a nice size gift. I put handmade soaps in it and I don't think it will have any trouble holding up under the weight! Anyway, hope you like it! Let me know if you'd like a tutorial and I'll get my busy little hands to work! In the meantime, enjoy your holiday. We are supposed to have some pretty heavy storms, but today, so far, it is nice enough (SUPER hot and humid, but very few clouds).
