Little birthday girl card today, between mowing the lawn and chasing a peacock around the yard I thought I would try and post a card today!  Here what you need:

Cardstock:  Marina Mist #119682  Poppy Parade # 119793  Whisper White #100730

Build a Bear Workshop Pawsitively Prints DSP paper # 117396

Teacher Appreciation DSP covered Scissors

Every Teacher can use an extra pair of scissors!  Get out your Designer Series papers,

I happened to be using the Springtime Vintage  # 121782 series.  (you have til saturday to order it!) Take your pair of scissors and measure each outside blade by tracing around the blades with a pencil, cut out and glue to blades with Tombow Adhesive.   Let dry.  Once dry take out your Crystal Effects and add a very thin coat to each blade.  Let dry.  Put scissors in a cello bag.

You can see in the photo how nice and shiney the Crystal Effects dry on the designer series paper.

Each side of the scissors blades have the designer paper on it.

These are the scissors all packaged up......

The tag is made by punching out a 2' scallop circle with Rose Red cardstock

then a 1 3/4' Old Olive Circle and then a 1 3/8 Very Vanilla Circle punch.

I used the My Digital Studio to write the "your a cut above" and printed it out onto the Very Vanilla cardstock. Add the Vintage Flower Rosettes and Old Olive ribbon and tie through the hole in the scissors

Keep your eyes open for my very first Stamp Club!  I will be hosting a My Digital Studio stamp club for all interested!  Stay tuned!

Best Eggs Ever

Good Morning! Dust off your MDS (My Digital Studio)  ladies!  I saw this idea online last year and thought it would be fun to try using the MDS.  MDS you say?  I always assume my followers know all the Stampin Up products but I know this is probably not true!  My Digital Studio is a computer program that I sell that you can create cards, scrapbook pages, photo books, calendars all at your finger tips!  After you create any of these items you print them out either at a local printing source, through Stampin Up or your own home computer.   It is a lot of fun and quite easy to use,  I promise!

You can view the MDS product to the right of my blog, there is a button to click on. 

 You can now either purchase the downloadable version for $39.95  order # 124483  OR the software version for $79.95 order # 118108 

Here it is all packaged up.  I used the "Sunny Day Elements" to create my tag and then added the text. So Fun!

Rainbow PEEP Kabobs

Aren't these so stinkin' cute!  I saw PEEPS on a stick at Walmart and thought how cute would that be to make some!

So.... I purchased a few boxes of the different colors and went to town.  Just use some wooden bamboo skewers and cello bags and tie them up!   Rainbow PEEP kabobs!  xoxo

Outdoor Easter Decor

Getting ready for Easter around here!  We took to the plastic Easter eggs to do this!  Just bought a bag of 18 at the Dollar Tree. Plastic eggs have a hole in the top making this easy to do.  Just take some white string and open the egg, run the string through the hole and tie a knot.  Then tie to the tree.   The kids had a blast doing this and it looks so cute!  xoxo

Resurrection Rolls

These are hollow dinner rolls that are to represent Jesus' empty tomb.  They are alot of fun to make for the Easter week just to eat or accompany your Easter dinner.  The are super ~YUMO!~  and the kids get a kick out of making them.
