Birthday gift

I am so excited to share what I made for my niece's birthday! I received my chipboard coasters yesterday from princess4101 on SCS (Thanks so much!!) and immediately wanted to make something with them. After trying to think of someone I could make something for I had an idea to make a name wall hanging for my niece Page! It took me a few hours but most of that was staring at my materials. You all know how that is! In the end I really love it! I'll definitely be making more of these. I hope she loves it!


  • My Minds Eye paper
  • JoAnn craft essentials chipboard alphas
  • bookplates
  • brads
  • ribbon
  • flowers from a stem
  • rhinestones
  • acrylic paint

I also made a quickie card for my hubby's grandmother's birthday. It doesn't get much simpler than this!


  • light brown (kraft) paper
  • Deco Designs stamp set (TAC)
  • Curvy Verses stamp set (SU)
  • ribbon
  • white Prismacolor pencil
I have to re-make a wedding card today so I better get the house picked up before I start on that one! See ya later gators!

I love this TAC stamp set! I am curious what size blocks you need for it. Especially for that little swirl of flowers that kind of makes a right angle - KWIM? Thanks!
