Surprise for a Friend

Ever feel really good about doing something totally unexpected for someone? Yesterday was that day for me. My friend Lorri Heiling at stampingaddict@blogspot.com has helped me tremendously along the way with card making. What better time to thank her than Valentine's Day! This idea was inspired by Sarah at sarahsinkspot.com

Papa's Treats for Work

My husband loves to give gifts. Valentine's Day makes that real easy for him. These are the little treats I made for him to hand out to his staff.

All the products used are Stampin Up except for the ribbon. The large Square Scallop came in very handy to make this candy bar holder.

Valentine Swaps

Thanks to Mary Fish at Stampin Pretty. She gave me permission to CASE this card for my weSTAMP swap last month. Isn't she talented? This was my first attempt at a joy fold card. It was so much fun to make. It takes me FOREVER to decide what to make for a swap and this card really caught my eye.
