Dice Party Favors

 Hello friends, today I wanted to share these fun party favors I made for my scrapbooking retreats. Our theme was "Casino Royale" so I thought these would be perfect. I started with the cute little box on the Artiste cartridge ( page 45, size 3"), added hearts for the numbers ( page 71, size .5") filled with chocolate (of course) and tied with a bow. I like how they turned out and the girls loved them too!

Birthday Card with Chantilly

 Hello Friends! Happy Mother's day, I hope you are all doing something fun with your Moms, kiddos or friends!

Happy Birthday Card

 Today I am sharing a birthday card I made for my daughter's 18th birthday. I used CTMH For Always paper. I love the bold black and white patterns that go so well with whatever splash of color you want to add. I used Lagoon ink to alter one of the pattern papers by sponging ink to change the background color. (see below) Isn't that cool?!!! Think of the possibilities.

The flowers are from Art Philosophy page 21, sizes are 2.5", 2" and 1.5. I can't believe my baby girl is 18-sniff sniff. Have a beautiful day!
