For my project today, I created something that seriously made me think of my summer this year...My BFF's wedding!!! I know it may not be the "Fun In The Sun" you may think of, but for me it is! I have been SO BUSY doing all the crafty stuff for her, that it only seemed fitting to show what my FUN has been this summer! I am seriously SO EXCITED for her wedding next Friday night! I am honored to be a part of her bridal party, and also honored that she asked me to help her with all the crafty goodness that she wanted to be done for her big day!!!

I made so many different things for her wedding, but BY FAR, my project for today is my favorite!!! I have been on a vinyl kick lately, so this was right up my alley!
 
I created a card box for her guests to place their wedding cards in!




I cut all the vinyl letters out on my Cameo as well as the banner letters! I used her wedding theme colors of Lime Green and Marine Blue (or at least as close as I could get to her colors).

Your next stop is INGA!!!!

 

Here is the entire line up, should you get lost along the way:
 



Ok all! Hope to catch you Craftin' and Stampin'

So, the one reason I have not been on my blog lately is because I have been VERY busy planning my Brother and my Sister-In-Law's baby shower!!! They are going to have a little baby boy, who I already know will be so adorable and who I love so much already! She is not due until October 9th, but we wanted to have the shower earlier in case she had the baby earlier! I can't wait to meet this amazing little guy who is SO ment to be here! And just for the fact that this is my little brother's son that is coming makes it that much more special to me, hence why I have been so busy planning and creating! IT MUST BE PERFECT! And the funny thing about this hop and the shower is that they both fall on the same weekend!!!

My sister in law picked an ADORABLE theme for the baby's nursery and I went NUTS with this theme for the shower!!! The theme is a "BA-BEE Shower"! HOW CUTE!!! And how "summery", if that's even a word!

So, yesterday if you missed my post, check it out HERE!

For today, I am showing off the Bee Hive Diaper Cake gift holder I made her! Check it out:

 




 
I was able to incorporate some of the bees from her invite into the Diaper Cake!
 
I hope you enjoyed my project for today!

Click HERE for my 500 Follower Giveaway! Make a comment on that post & follow my blog for your chance to win!!!


Hey All!!!

SURPRISE!!! I still had one more post as part of the Jaded Blossom Guest Designers!!! And this one is SUPER fun!!!

Its Christmas in July over at Jaded Blossom and we are all getting together to show off some Christmas fun gift, favor, and decoration ideas!!! I was so very excited for this post because I think you ALL know how much I LOVE the Christmas Season! Friends and Family and traditions and Christmas music, ohhhh how I LOVE the holidays!!!!

For my project today, I decided I wanted to make a super cute treat holder with my FAVORITE stamp set that I own from Jaded Blossom...Santa Mail! This set is just PERFECT if you have little ones or you want to make some treats for a  little person you may know that comes from Santa!!! 

I wanted to get a head start on some treat containers for Bran's classroom this year so I am not stuck last minute  (as I USUALLY am, lol) crafting up some treats for the kids! I saw this container last Christmas in the Silhouette Store but did not have time to play with it! I knew I HAD to use this one for my project!!!

Here it is:




 

SUPPLIES:
SVG: 3D Candy Cane Box-Snapdragon Snippits in Silhouette Studio Store
Ink: Memento Tuxedo Black
Misc.. Scotch Quick Dry Glue, Red Twine (from stash), Red Grossgrain Ribbon-Hobby Lobby, M&M's
 
I hope you enjoyed my project today! Be sure to check out the other great ideas for Christmas in July!
 
Hope to catch you all Craftin' and Stampin'!
