Gifts Bags, Final Day!

It's Wednesday! Almost done for the week! It's also report card day today, I can't wait to see how the kids did this year.

So this is the final day of my gift bag sharing. I hope that you have found some inspiration. If you would like to create your own gift bags you can find the bags and supplies that you need in the Idea Book and Catalogue.

Gift Bags

Happy Monday all! I hope that everyone is set for a short week...I know I am! I am very much looking forward to a long weekend of relaxation.

This weekend I managed to finish up some gift bags that I was working on. For the next few days I would like to share them with you. The gift bags were decorated using some retired Designer Series papers that I had, cardstock, dies and ribbons. Just basically what I had on hand.

I hope that you like them




Don't forget the Card Buffet tonight. If you haven't signed up yet, I still have a few spots available.

Coasters

It's the start of another new week and I hope that you all have something fun planned this week. I was lucky enough to win tickets to see Rhianna Tuesday night so hubby and I will be having a date night.
I am wishing for some good weather so I can use my patio table and my new coasters! These are a fun project that we made last week at Stamper's Club. They are so quick and easy to make and would make a wonderful little gift for a friend.

Here is my coaster project!
