Lunch Box Swap

I was part of a Lunch and Paint box Swap that Bits-N-Pieces hosted. My partner was Dalia, here is my lunch box. I decorated using some Anna Griffin paper, which it had my partners favorite colors on it, "pink". I bling the front part of the lunch box and the back.

I added some die cuts from French Manor. I also heat emboss the top and some of the sides with black and pink embossing powder.

I also added metal letters and heat emboss with Pink powder and thick embossing glaze powder.

I really had a blast decorating this lunch box, which it was my first time decorating a lunch box swap... Here are the goodies I added inside the lunch box..some bling, flowers, papers, etc.

Winner for the 100+ followers

The winner is Angela from simplecreations:papercrafts.

Mini Heart Boxes

I made these for my daughter teachers and aides. I used my gypsy(i finally got the hang of it) and use TBBM cartridge and emboss it with the Sizzix Templates Hearts. I heat emboss the heart by pouring Pink powder. I filled them with M&M Valentine milk chocolate candy.

I just want to say THANK YOU....

Thank you to all the wonderful ladies who I have participated in Swaps, RAK, CirclePal #1, and to those that "Just Because" surprise me with cards or small gifts;

Thank You Very Much

My Valentine Swap Gift

This is my gift to my partner Khrista from Washington. I also made a mini album using my YourStory Mini Machine...

I emboss the outside of the booklet using the Sizzix Templates swirl heart and I added rhinestone using I-Rock tool.. LOVE title was using adhesive rub on and apply foil to it, this is from We are Memory Keepers..

This is the inside and used my gypsy to cut out the heart from this thick glitter paper from recollections and added a flower with rhinestone.
