Jaded Blossom April 2016 Sneak Peek Day 2

Happy Tuesday! Just another day closer to the Blog Hop on Friday! Are you lovin' what you see? Well today's sneak peek was designed for my oldest and dearest friend Tracy. We met in the 2nd grade and have been BFF's ever since. We joined Brownies and Girl Scouts together. I recently came across some old photos of a Brownie ceremony and a Girl Scout camping trip and I'm having copies made and will send them to her in this card. We have fond memories of selling cookies. It was the highlight of being a Girl Scout. I just wish we could by them at prices from the late 70's/early 80's.

Jaded Blossom April 2016 Sneak Peek Day 1

WOW! I am truly BLESSED and HONORED to have been chosen as a guest designer for Jaded Blossom Stamps for the month of April!

I am in L-O-V-E with this month's set! I hope you love it as much too! 

I made this card and goody bag set for our "#1 favorite" teacher, Mrs. Laura Ozawa! My daughter Madison met her in Kindergarten as she was her P.E. teacher for 6 years in elementary school. We became close friends as the years passed as she also ran the Safe Key program at the school since as long as I can remember. We have paid her a visit every year to surprise her with her favorite Starbucks drink and/or a gift card for Teacher Appreciation week. I told her we were not going to stop spoiling her until she graduated and that will be this June! 

Ms. Oz you will always be #1 teacher in our book! Love you!

Jaded Blossom Challenge: Under the Sea Project #2

Hi again! Just a wee bit over zealous about being a guest designer this month! My original plan was to try these homemade jello fruit snacks that I found on Pinterest. They are cute but very chewy, I may try another batch with half of the unflavored gelatin. The molds were purchased a while ago from Ikea, but I just thought they were a perfect fit for the Under the Sea challenge theme.

Happy Spring! I'm super stoked to be a guest designer for the month of April for my favorite stamp and favor company Jaded Blossom

A little backstory: So my friend Jennifer is trying to lose weight and gave me all of her Easter candy from the baskets she made for her family. The excellent friend I am kindly accepted the grocery bag full of treats, including a very large bag of Russell Stover Mini Pecan Delights (AKA turtles). I have enough for a large army.

SVG Cutting Files: Easter/Spring Treat Challenge

Happy Belated Easter! I've been on Spring Break and was house/dog sitting last week with limited to no internet access, but I'm back home now and catching up on my DVR shows and posting my project for this month's challenge. Yes, I will admit it is a bit lacking but my beautiful daughter is trying to curb her sweet tooth and fell in love with these Kind bars. Sweet and salty mmmm good!

Have a Rice Day!

Konbanwa! 

I was on a roll today, whipped up this lil' cutie. I love playing with my Jaded Blossom stamp sets! Remember the other day, I shared the chips & salsa anniversary card? Well, I posted it on Instagram and my BFF's sister Erin, LOVED the card and I told her if she PM'd me her address I would send her some love mail. She didn't get back to me but my BFF did and I dropped off this lil' cutie in the mail today. It's perfect because it will arrive on or before her birthday on March 17!
