Taking a step back from Christmas cards/projects to get my thank you and thinking of you stash built back up. I’ve got so much exciting stuff to share over the next couple of weeks!
I have to start by restating my deep love of Kaisercraft paper pads. Not only are they 6.5″ x 6.5″, which is super helpful in many ways, but they include tags and borders and other fun stuff to enable you to make a card/gift in a jiff! This array I’m sharing today is all made with the Kaisercraft Ooh La La paper pad. I just added some ribbon and flowers. Check out the many pads Sharon (The Stamp Simply Ribbon Store) carries in her store!
~*~*~*~
I wanted a tall skinny card, so this one is 6″ x 3″. I’ll have to make a custom envelope for it, but it will be hand delivered anyway.
~*~*~*~
Nothing says thank you like a hunk of chocolate… LOL. A candy bar and a little bit of pretty papers, ribbon and flowers…. and we have a happy! Full disclosure: I had only taken pictures of these 5 minutes before my hubby claimed a thank you. He deserved it though. He has worked very hard for me this weekend!

I used:
Kaisercraft Ooh LaLa 6.5″ x 6.5″
MME – Enamel Dots – Blues
Prima Craftsman Perles
Prima Serenade – Orange
May Arts 5/8″ Faux Canvas (Green and white) ****
Thermoweb 3D Foam Squares – 1/4″ White
~*~*~*~
*** I have to gush just a second. This was the first time I have used this Faux Canvas ribbon. I LOVE it! It has a light cotton/poly feel. Looks a little like grosgrain and is slightly heavier than seam binding. Makes easy bows, too! I highly recommend it (and I’m not paid to say that!).
Thanks for stopping by!
