Build A Bear

I was excited when I finally purchased the Build A Bear die and used it for some gifts I gave to my friend's kids for Christmas!


Supplies:

Ink: Real Red
Cardstock: Garden Green, Real Red, Close to Cocoa, Basic Black, Cameo Coral
Accessories: Big Shot Scallop Circle Die, Stampin' Up! Bear, Beary Essentials and Beary Girl Die, DSP from Country Living Holiday Kit from 2008, silver cord and Riding Hood Red Taffeta Ribbon.

She is just beary cute, isn't she?



Then I had a couple of giftcards to give, so I made some adorable gift card holders for them. I used some CD folders I had. Yes, a little big for gift cards, but I really wanted to use the Build A Bear and it fit perfectly on these!


This is the outside.

Supplies:

Happy New Year!

Has it been another month already? Apparently time is going by faster than I think, which is bad because I feel like it is just flying! Anyway, I have lots of stuff to share, so hopefully I can get caught up on my blog :)

Here is a banner I made for my New Year's party, isn't it the cutest?:

It was a teeny bit time consuming putting it all together, but it was worth it in the end. The best part is I can use it every year by changing out the last pennant and making a new on for that year!

Supplies:

Paper: Basic Black, Whisper White
Accessories: Big Shot, Silver Cord, Whisper White Organza Ribbon, Pennant Bixz XL Die



I used my Cricut for letters on this one, but Serif Essentials would have worked too.
