Here's what's on my work desk today....however, I'm working on some Christmas gifts for family, so, I can't show you my actual desk....this little gift is for a neighbor. She's always doing little things for our neighborhood, and this little something is to let her know she is thought of. The gift wrap is tissue, but what I like best about the wrapping is the Memory Box dies that I used to decorate the gift.
Karen at Paradise Scrapbook Boutique has a large supply of the Memory Box dies (well large yesterday....they are going fast!) and I'll tell you, my shopping bag had quite a few. The rosette has become my favorite, and trust me, I have a few. It's easy to use, no, that's not exactly true.....it's SUPER easy to use. I have another that manages to cut through about half the card stock and all the light weight papers. This one doesn't. The above was cut on a light weight paper...and it didn't break when I folded it. The silver cuts are two of the Madera Corner that I slid under the rosette. What an easy way to add some pizazz to a package.
Yesterday was my November class and I met several new gals....I've got to say it was one of my favorite classes. Everyone worked hard to finish and everyone did a fantastic job. I took my December class cards with me, and when I say the class is filling up quickly....boy is it. There are 3 spots left, so if you want to take the class....call Karen. http://paradisescrapbookboutique.typepad.com
Today my honey has a painting class, I'll be working on cutting my packets for the December class and also on a project for Karen's December Workshop. I guess if I'm going to get something done...I should get at it.
Have a most wonderful week, and if you have a minute, check out what the others are doing this week....

ReplyDeleteLucky neighbor!
ReplyDeleteThat looks lie a lovely present for your kind neighbour.
ReplyDeleteMy workdesk was buried under such a high pile of "stuff" that I finally cleared it yesterday--all morning! Once things were put away, I was inspired by all the open space and used the rest of the time I had to make kits for my upcoming Christmas workshop and Mothers Classes. (I'll be posting the card pictures later today.)
ReplyDeleteYou have a great heart yourself Mary to think of doing this for your neighbour
