Wedding Box

Spring is in the air . . . and so are weddings! In fact, I just attended one this past weekend. My nephew got married and we are so excited for him and Kinsey!

With this in mind, I decorated one of SRM's adorable kraft boxes. The lace fits the width of the box perfectly and is a great way to dress it up. In addition to the lace, I added some specialty papers. Then I finished it off with amazing SRM stickers and stamps!

I love how the clear backing on SRM stickers allows them to look seamless on whatever background they are placed. It doesn't matter if it is a sentiment or border, they blend in perfectly. Also, using the border stickers from the Stickers by the Dozen Wedding set, the stickers were the perfect length to wrap two around the box.

The stamp "do everything in love" is from the Love One Another stamp set. I used a champagne colored ink to stamp it on the box for a barely-there but sparkly look. The box is topped off with a burlap tag and flower.

This would be easy to replicate and make several for wedding favors, a small gift, or as part of table centerpieces at the festivities.

Thanksgiving Tray

Hi! I love Thanksgiving--for us it involves gathering with family, sharing memories and making new ones, and (of course) delicious food!

This divided tray has been hanging out in my craft area for awhile, just patiently waiting to be put to use. The individual spaces are perfect for fitting SRM stickers!

 You can see all the details HERE on the SRM blog :)

A few weeks ago a friend had some cotton bolls in her kitchen. I loved the look and got some from her. They add a beautifully different look to our entryway and now the tray is the finishing touch.

It is a blessing to have so much to be thankful for. I'm looking forward to seeing this reminder each day.

Crafting with Cat

Hello! Cat had a surprise exchange with a fellow cast mate in one of her theatre productions. She wanted to put together a fun Halloween treat bag.

I tried really hard to let her do her own thing :) Sometimes that is hard to do! She asked me for suggestions a couple of times but I really wanted it to be her own creation.

You can see the details HERE on the SRM blog.

It is fun to sit down with kids to create. I loved to see how her treat bag turned out and she was excited to give it to her friend (who loved it as well).

Happy Crafting!
