What I've been working on...

Hello, stampers and friends;

 

WOW!! It's been a WHILE...a WHILE since my last post!!

My life has changed so much and "life duties" kept me away from one of the things that I love the most, crafting; but slowly I'm getting back to my "passion".

 

I've not been "totally" disconnected, I've been working in different projects for my ONLINE CLASSES SITE, and today I want to share with you what I've done during this time that I was away.

 

Here are the projects I've made:

 

1. Spring Flower Seeds Gift Box

This gift pack has two pockets for flower seeds packets, a great gift for those flower lovers.

 

 

 2. Easter Bunny Candy or Gift Box

This box was made using different shapes from the Art Philosophy and Artiste cartridges; my kids loved it!!

 

 

 3. Daddy's Tool Box #2

A dear friend of mine helped with the design of this box, she is wonderful!! I changed and adjusted the box using our wonderful CTMH supplies and paper collection.

 

 

 4. Claire Mini Pocket Album

This mini album was created using a "special item" from you home and the wonderful and pretty paper collection, Claire from CTMH.

 5. For Always Basket

Oh, how much I loooove this basket!! I was so proud of my basket, it looks so elegant, so perfect for a wedding gift or a special gift...PRETTY!!
