Lovely as a Tree

I love this old SU set-came out years ago but is still in the book. I think it is so versatile-I use it for male birthday, sypmathy and even Christmas. Here are a few I did yesterday.







Drawer boxes for Teaghan Olivia Barker Benefit

My girlfriend's 3 year old god daughter Teaghan has cancer and she is holding a benefit Aug 15, 2010 at the Roselawn in New York Mills, NY.

I am making some items for the Chinese Auction-these are 2 of the card boxes I made. The idea came from Splitcoaststampers-here is the link:

I was only able to get 5 cards and envelopes in so I am hoping I'll get time to make some more. 1 filled with birthday cards & 1 filled with Christmas cards. Tried to keep them simple so they would appeal to the most people.

Here is the christmas one-note the ribbon "handle". And a little glam on the top.







This one was filled with the birthday cards.








I'm also making some altered composition books as school is right around the corner.

Crocheted Trim

Made this card today with some crocheted & pearl trim I picked up at Walmart. Alot cheaper than the SU new trim.
