Beach Days Notes



Don't you just love these papers from The Beach House (found at Hobby Lobby -The Paper Studio)? I bought these in June while my friend Cec Wintonyk was visiting.
I showed Cec how I had created note pad covers in the past and fabulous
mind that she is --- she came up with the idea and measurements
for an inside pocket so that the pads could be replaced when
empty. Love this!!!!
You can find the one she created here , such a beautiful vintage
beauty which she gifted to me, surprise! 


I stamped shells on a piece of the design paper and the sentiment using a GinaKDesigns set.
The beautiful background piece was straight from the pad.


The crackle finish was made using Wendy Vechi crackle
texture paste, so pretty!
I also covered the top of the note pad with
another piece of the design paper.


Here is the inside pocket- layered with design paper
stamped with a border of shells and an added
punched shell.


Thanks so much for stopping by - I hope you have a wonderful week.
hugs......

A Sweet Thank You....


Rick and I have a dear friend that loves to garden and share her bounty,
so I made these jar tags with her in mind. We have enjoyed
many fresh produce items as well as some of her canned
goodies, so I thought these would be perfect for her.

I used the new set Vegetable Garden as my starting point but also brought in images from Juicy Strawberry (color) and Blackberries . All at Doodle Pantry . 

I was able to use my Cameo to create these. I brought the images into the software, created my circles with a printed stitch line inside of that. Using the text tool, I made my lines for dates and her name.
All nine of my designs fit on one sheet of white card stock, printing and cutting these took only
a moment. I then took scraps of card stock that matched the colors and cut a slightly larger 
circle for backing. 


Using one of these clear pillow boxes I was able to fit all of the tags  into
it along with a bit of the raffia (sorry I took the pictures before adding that).
She will be able to either tape or glue these onto the jar lid (an exact fit) or she 
can punch a hole and tie to the jar.
I turned the tags so you can see them from both sides of the pillow box.


The Doodle Pantry team is having a design team call until the 24th of March, check out all of the details Here . Also, don't forget this month's challenge is still going on until the 24th as well, you still have time to enter.

Thanks for stopping by....
