Get Well Soon

Good Morning and Happy Easter

I hope everyone is doing well today. Yesterday we went to Orlando, so my daughter could pick out her birthday present. She is going to be 14 on Monday and she is extremely excited. We have plans to go out to dinner with the grandparents and then we are going to enjoy a piece cookie cake.

After we came home last night, I was able to work on a card for a few challenges. Since I wasn't able to do much crafting this past week with getting school work done, it was nice to be able to create.  We only have 8 weeks left with an extremely jammed pack schedule, but I am going to continue to try and enter some more challenges.

Treats Anyone?

I am super excited today!

Paula from More Than Favors asked me to be a Guest Designer. Of course, I jumped at the opportunity and said I would make anything she needed. Well, she wanted treat bags and I thought perfect since Valentine's Day is approaching quickly.

 I had so much fun designing each bag. I wanted them to be as unique as each person receiving them. I used Plantin Schoolbook to make each one.

•  These two were cut at 12 1/2" (fit to page feature) using the Tall Ball key on page 80.
• The paper on the left is BoBunny Love Bandit Be Mine (LOVE IT!). The hearts are from Wild Card p. 67 and they are cut at 3" and 3 1/2". Sweet is cut from All Mixed Up at 3/4". I tied brown lace ribbon and sheer green to each handle to add a special touch.
• The treat bag on the right is hot pink cardstock. The scallop behind the frog was from gold mteallic paper cut at 4 1/2" from the Accent cartridge. The frog is from Paisley (LOTS of fun images!) at 3" and Smile (p.36) was cut at 3/4". The hot pink ribbon has gold weaved throughout.

• The AMOR bag on the left was cut using the Italic feature at 7 1/2" (fit to page on a 12 X 12 sheet). I used Bo Bunny Dehihah Stripe paper along with Love Shack Groovin' for the Rock Princess heart (p.45). I added gold gems for more sparkle.
• Love Bug is just too cute! The Roly Poly bag was cut at 6 1/4" from pink cardstock and various ribbon pieces were tied to the front handle. The little bug was cut from Simply Charmed p. 31 at 3" and the surrounding hearts were cut at 1" and 1 1/2". The title was cut at 3/4".

I truly enjoyed making these treat bags for Paula after she asked. I sure hope she loves them too. Enjoy adding some goodies to each and definitely find someone to give them away too. You will put a smile on their face!

Stay Creative,

Georgiana : )
