Manly Man

For as long as I can remember, my aunt has sent the coolest care package and little goodies to different people.  She pays such attention to the littlest details.  She has been ordering my paper purses for the many people she works with and it seems, they've all loved receiving them.  I've included a picture of the latest order, all coordinating but different.  These little cuties are so much fun to create and dress up.  Last week she brought me a new challenge:  a gift for a man.  At the company she is at, there is one lone man.  What can I do for him?  Well a traditional brief case of course!  I know these are all over the internet but I didn't have my laptop handy so I just did my own thing.  The supplies for this are simple:  Chocolate Chip card stock, Hodgepodge Hardware and the white gel pen.  (Paper cutter and hole punch too)  I did decide to add some depth to the briefcase by adding some sponging in Early Espresso to darken the edges and show some "age" to it.  There are 4 mini brads on the bottom, too. There is a little velcro dot so the case can open.  This would be adorable for a gift card or business card holder for a desk!

Thanks for checking in!  It's good to be back creating and posting!

Heart Health Just for You!

Who knew you could punch through a tin can?  At our Christmas Swap, my upline, Pam White designed these cute butterfly magnets made out o a tin can and the butterfly die for the Big Shot.  So very cute.  She had a couple of these cute little gift bags (adults only, they are sharp) and after I saw these cute Diet Coke cans...I just had to try it! What a great little Thinking of you Gift for any woman during Women's Heart Health Month! Let me know what you think...
