New Home

No, not me! Brandons teacher recently bought her first home. She was so excited and I thought it would be fun to make her a little basket filled with the must haves when you move in. So we put together a few things like paper towels, dish soap, sponges etc. I made this card to go with the basket. We took it to her after school today and she was thrilled. Brandon was giddy to give his teacher a gift.

 

So, the card uses the Neighborhood Wheel that I love. What a great wheel. I watercolored with ink pads and an aqua painter and then added a little Crystal Effects to the windows to make them look a little more real. Kinda fun, huh?

 

I’ve also been pretty busy with the Valentines stuff. I *think* I might make these little gems for Lexi’s classroom. When you pull up the ribbon, the sweathearts come out. She really wants me to do these.

 

Time to go back to stamping. The list of class projects has grown. Ahhh!

Rub it Rub it!!!

I LOVE RUB-ONS!!!!! Yes, these little things are just awesome. Let me just admit right away that I have used these great things for quite awhile. When I taught in the scrapbook stores, rub-ons were always a BIG DEAL. I became a little picky though on the brand that I chose. Not all rub-ons are FABULOUS. In fact, I found few companies that I really found easy to "Rub-on". Well, as the great Stampin’ company they are… they have once again brought another fantastic product to us. Stampin’ Up!’s new rub-on line is just awesome. They go on very smoothly and look great. I just love that they match our stamp sets. Imagine me jumping around like a crazy woman the first time I had seen these in the catalog. Honestly, I think I actually scared Russ for the first time. I guess I am just so excited because I love to scrapbook and I love how Stampin’ Up! is really on board with the scrapbooking supplies they are bringing out. They make it sooooo easy for us. In the picture here you can see I have played a bit with my rub-ons. I bought this silly Ruby Red pale at the Target Dollar spot. As soon as I spotted it, I ran and grabbed it. I knew it would go so well with Ginger Blossom paper and the rub-ons. So, I bought these way toooooooo expensive chocolate that only my tounge will eat and wrapped them in the beautiful paper and stuffed them in the pale. I was so excited with the results. Isn’t it cute??? I thought Uber Cute!!

Wow, I just thought of something…. I have blogged three days in a row. AMAZING!!!

Have a super duper Friday and get some great stampin’ time in!!!
