Cindy's Craft Creations: lunch box notes

Monday, August 31, 2015

And they are off!

Today was the official first day of school. My oldest started high school and my youngest started middle school with my middle child finishing up her final year of middle school. Wow they grow so fast. It is really hard to believe how time has flown by these last couple of years.

Anyway, before I get too emotional, I will move onto today's post. I wanted to make some cute little notes to throw into the kids lunch boxes so that they knew I was thinking about them. The first day of school can be a little tough, so I wanted to them to be reminded that they are always in my thoughts. I found some of the cutest sayings in the Barnyard Babies set, and it made me realize that they really aren't for babies (which is why I originally got this set). So they made the perfect lunch box cards.

Here are 4 of the cards I made which really come together quickly with some DSP Scraps and these really adorable animal puns.

Join me on Wednesday for a Christmas Card using the Reason for the Season stamp set that will be release TOMORROW in the new holiday catalog.

See you soon.

Happy Friday!

Do you remember when you were a kid and wanted to color? Wednesday's card created this feeling in me so today's samples feature another technique in coloring. I used the Stampin'Up! Blender Pen and ink to create this set of Lunch Box Notes and card.

Stampin'Up! Sweet Stuff Lunch Box Notes

Stampin'Up! Sweet Stuff

I used the Sweet Stuff Stamp set to create these and can I tell you, I LOVE THEM! This set it so fun and EASY to color and a great set to create this little note cards to stick in the kids lunches. My kids are getting older (faster than I am ready to accept), but they still like getting a little something in their lunch boxes to remind them I am thinking of them. I hope you will give this set a try if you are a coloring enthusiast. All the supplies are listed below and can be purchased by clicking on the links.

Thanks for stopping by and hope you find your way back soon. Next week I will have some 3D items appearing on the blog so be sure to check it out.

Until next time...
