Papercrafting Frenzy!

Kimberly got to celebrate her birthday at school on Friday, we had a lot of fun making cake balls and chocolate covered pretzels for everyone to eat.

The creative juices have been flowing and I have been having fun creating a cute gift for Kimberly's teacher, lots of cards using butterflies, and experimenting with the "Forest Friends" stamp set. I even recreated a cute card I found on Pinterest (MY FAVORITE WEBSITE!!!) But I will talk about that later.




This card uses the Forest Friends stamp set.
 All the butterfly cards were made possible thanks to Dana for letting me borrow her 2 butterfly punches. For the card below I just layered the three different sizes on top of each other to give the butterflies texture.



The butterfly strip was what was left over after punching out all the butterflies. I thought it looked really cool and thought it would be perfect for a card.

Forest Friends stamp set again.

 The two cards below are the ones I copied off a card I saw on Pinterest...who doesn't love rainbows!





 The next two cards are probably my favorites! I just LOVE how they turned out!



 This is the gift Kimberly gave her teacher the 1st day of school. What a cute personalized notepad and matching pen don't ya think!?!? I admit I copied this from Pinterest too, but it was darling and way  super cheap to make. All you need is an acrylic picture frame, post-it notes, pen and paper crafting supplies to personalize.
