Coworker Gifts

My coworkers know that I craft for any reason, and I love how something so simple as this gift tag made form the Dotty For You paper packet and a bottle of soda can bring a smile to some one's face. Of course it may just have been a smile because we are all so-da lighted for the last day of school!

The Dotty For You paper pack is only available until May 31. Which is less then a week for me to hoard a few more packs. To get your own paper pack for $5 visit my website and place an order of at least $35.

My sister-in-law celebrated a birthday yesterday. I made this card from the Sweet Surprises Card Kit. It was a quick and easy card to make with a big wow factor! I love that kind of paper crafting.

Operation Smile Auction

At every Close To My Heart Event I've attended there is an auction to benefit Operation Smile. This past weekend I put the highest bid on the picture frame. My friend Stephanie had the highest bid on a set of cards. She shared the sunshine card with me. Such inspiring artwork and for a worthy cause!

Did you know every time you purchase a My Acrylix stamp set a portion of the proceeds is donated to Operation Smile? You can shop the complete line of my Acrylix stamp sets here.

Papercrafting for Your Wall

Sure papercrafters are known for scrapbooking and making cards, but those same supplies can be used to create works of art for your home. These two pieces were made by Stephanie Brown and Jolene Barron. Thank you for the beautiful pieces that are in my room. You two are the best!
