A little more Mother's Day creativity:)




A little bit of 'Bugs & Embossing' inspiration over at Stamps R Us and the 'Wings' theme over at Stamp Something this week led me searching through the stamps to find this cutsie dragonfly stamp that I've had for ages...a Kaisercraft stamp that I just knew would come in handy one day lol:) A Mother's Day card creation that uses Cuttlebug embossing, bling things from the local craft shop and gorgeous papers, ink, sentiment, ribbon & label punch from Stampin' Up!







With K1's orthodontic appointments at the end of this week keeping us from returning 'back to school' for Term 2...I decided to leave a crafty Mother's Day package for my relief teacher to do on Thursday:) So I created this 'good idea' in my head that became a little bigger than anticipated... 24 embossed cards; 24 pillow box die cuts - to hold 24 wrapped Tim Tams & 24 teabags; many paper punched flowers and the other bits and pieces were left for the PP/Yr 1 & the relief teacher to create for their mums:) I'm sure they will be made with love! (and hopefully not too much frustration - lol) So...here it is...the "Mother's Day Relief Pack"...







Sample of front cover - blank white embossed cards ready for kids to colour & decorate:)










Sample for inside the card to attach Pillow Box:)




Fingers crossed that my 'seemed like a good idea at the time' will be an enjoyable one!
