Quick and Unique Gifts for anytime.

  

Oh I loved the little dear, but the relaxing Adirondack chair wins it for me.  
Add a cushion, cherry blossom, even a summer drink.  Quick, personal little add-on for the gift giving season. 

Christmas is coming....


Thank you Pinterest for the inspiration to stamp onto a jar.

I love finding uses from everyday items.  Here is a pasta sauce jar re-purposed into a votive holder.
I've stamped - well rolled really, 'Deck the Halls' stamp from Stampin' Up Christmas catalogue, stamped in Staz On then heat dried with the heat tool.
Add this lush black and white striped wire edged ribbon, silver Christmas bauble, Lemon Lime Twist ribbon, and gorgeous pine accent.

Coffee Cafe - Ooh I love this bundle.

From tags, cards and coasters, so many different uses.



This card has a gift card slide in envelope. 
Crumbcake, Early Espresso, co-ordinating DSP, tied together with copper ribbon.

Post-it pads.  Quick, useful gifts.  What a versatile suite.

Self Closing Gift Boxes



I love this technique.  
Just by adding diagonal score lines to the closures, these boxes stay closed without glue or ribbon.  Love it!
Great favour boxes...yeah?


Hey Chick !



These little ladies just put a smile on my face every time.

These three are on mini wooden pegs so they can be removed to help around the house holding important papers together, of course!



Happy Valentines Day - 2017





Remembering Valentines Day 2017.   The cute 'truck' stamp set was all the rage.  Here is the card I made for my Julia.  She loves cupcakes....so of course it's a Cupcake Truck.  Why not.

These little chicks reminded me of our chicken 'Polly' back in Tasmania.  She was such a silly chicken and we loved her.  So of course when 'Hey Chick' stamp set came my way...Polly came back to us.  

Paper Lanterns


What do you do with Christmas lights that you forgot to pack away?
Re-purpose them into paper lanterns of course.
2"x 2"x 2" cardstock cubes and glimmer paper butterflies complete the idea.
