AHSC #105

I'm participating in my first sketch challenge over at Atlantic Hearts . Here's the inspiration: And here's my very simple interpretation: I used my new Jackson Picture My Life and Paper Packet. I cut the quote out from one of the PML cards and used one of the zip strips on the B&T patterned paper. I used CTMH Barn Red cardstock, embossing about 3/4 of the page with the Provocraft Script  embossing folder. The card base is CTMH Glacier cardstock. I used a sanding block to distress the embossed portion of the cardstock and the CTMH Edge Distresser on the edges of my card. I usually stamp on my cards, so this was a nice change of pace for me. I love incorporating PML into my projects because it is just super easy! I wasn't sure how I felt about the Jackson collection, but now that I see it in action, I am a fan. Thanks for looking! :)

Happy Workplace Easter! :)

Just a quick little Easter project for my work colleagues! I used Wilton's baking cups - just one for each basket. Depending on the thickness of baking cups you use, you might need more than one. I used CTMH White Daisy cardstock for the handles (approx. 5.5" in length - I didn't really measure the width, so you can tell that some are wider than others).  I attached the handles with some coloured staples (thank you Dollarama!)  I got 20 of these done in less than a half an hour. Also, you could glam these up with flowers or bling on the handle! Or ribbon, or baker's twine, or... hey, the possibilities are endless! I put some chocolate eggs, cookies n creme eggs and little chocolate/caramel bunnies and nests in the baskets. They are super quick and easy, but most of all appreciated by my co-workers! :)
