Volunteer Appreciation Gifts

Hi!!  I finally got my camera out and took some pictures!!  This is a sample of the popcorn treats I made for the Volunteer Appreciation Breakfast!  I made 160 of them, using all different colors.  This one happens to be Pretty in Pink.

I printed the words on the computer, and then cut them out.  I thought they turned out cute!!

Another Asian Art

Good afternoon!!  I hope this finds you all well!!  I haven't stamped in a few days--we've had about a million baseball games!! :-)  Great news though--Cameron's team placed second in a tournament over the weekend, and have qualified for the USSSA World Series in July/Aug!!  We're very excited for them!!

I did want to share a card I made last week!  It's another one done with the Artfully Asian Stamp set!  I am really enjoying this set--I love these colors with it, but you could also use Earth Elements.  Or, pick some "manly" colors, and it would be easy to create a masculine card! 

Cardstock:  Ruby Red, Always Artichoke, Basic Black & Watercolor Paper

Misc:  Rustic Retreat Ribbon Originals

It's been awhile.......

since I've posted!!  It's been a busy few days, with baseball, work, etc.  I've been working on volunteer gifts for the parent helpers at school--150 gifts!!  I'm making some simple popcorn sleeves--will post one when I'm finished!!!

   Here is a card I made for my downline--I send cards to the top ten in sales each month.  This was for March.  I copied the design from a card that Stephanie Montessi made a few years ago for a stamp club swap--isn't it beautiful!!
