Gifts are not just IN the box....

Gifts are always fun to get. I think that when you buy a gift or make a gift, it is what you think about the person that you're giving it to a special meaning.

As lovely as this bracelet might be, the BOX IS VERY PLAIN! It is very apparent that there is just a bracelet in a box...that's all....

SO...I thought I would make this box into something MORE special!

I covered part of the top and the base with some pieces of Designer paper that I had (they were already cut and practically were screaming to get out and be used!!)

so, I cut and glued, and added it to the box...and the die cut some flowers to layer on top. I added a corderoy brad on top, and it pokes though the box to adhere it very well to the top of the box.

Now....isn't this just so much more special? I think that both the box and the bracelet will be savored for a longer time...don't you?

Happy Shopping!

Build A Bear Christmas

I have resisted......buying Build A Bear dies, but .

..I finally caved and bought one of the embosslets! What fun you can create with this cute die! So, if you've resisted purchasing all the Build A Bear dies, this might be one option you can choose to create some cute bears, and to decorate your scrapbook page, or cute cards!!!

If you were doing a BUILD A BEAR PARTY, you can make your own invitations, and put the little pieces in the invitation to give the recipient their own bear to decorate (and not break the BANK!)

I love how you can piece this little bear together so easily to make it your own signature! I added Sweet Season, and Merry Moments paper to create a fun tag and card that go together!

Gift Giving

Gifts ....a common theme on my blog. I love making gifts, and sharing them with you!

This one was inspired by the Mini Catalog that will be coming in your mailbox soon!

This is using the Top Notes Die and making a cute little box to hold them in. The lines are made using the Jumbo Wheel dotted lines. The colors are Perfect Plum, Old Olive and Certainly celery, as well as accents in Rich Razzleberry. LOVE the Striped ribbon. OOOH, if you don't have any of this, you've got to check it out in all the wonderful colors!

Be sure to see them http://www.dianneshiozaki.stampinup.net/

Get Ready for Christmas, and save your gas...shop at home and make your gifts!!!

I am praying for a fellow demonstrator, who on friday last week, the day after Thanksgiving, who went shopping with her mom, and got a sad call from her husband that her 2 year old daughter didn't wake up. She passed away in her sleep, and I just feel so saddened by this. It also follows the death of my beloved cat on Sunday (2 days ago). Emotional as I am, I wanted to pass this along......

Pray for her and her family..I know that she needs all the prayers she can get....

Keiki Tag Card

Keiki means child in Hawaiian. I received a gift from one of my relatives who went to Hawai'i for a holiday. It is a coin purse, that is shaped in a Hawaiian girl shape. It is so cute, and was the inspiration for this project today!







First I cut a tag using the (discontinued) Tag die from Sizzix. It has a crescent shape at the top. I cut the base from Basici black.

Then, I cut out of Creamy Caramel, the same shape but curved it using the Large Circle Die (clear die)


Then I cut out a piece of Designer Paper from Razzleberry Lemonade. This makes the dress.

To Make the Hair
Cut a length of yarn. Wrap it around the top of the tag, and then insert the strands of yarn through the wrapped yarn.

I punched the star flower punch and the trio flower and placed a Rhinestone brad through it, attaching it to a few strands of 'hair'.


Added it to textured Bermuda Bay Cardstock and placed on Basic Black....and Voila!

You're own Keiki or Wahine!


Happy Stamping, or Die Cutting!!!
