Die Cuts on Gift Bags

Sooooooo...back to that baby shower around Thanksgiving (yeah, lol, I know.) I posted a little bitty preview of this project on my Facebook Page, so if you want to see what I'm working on in the moment, head on over and follow me there...

I was able to snag some plain white and kraft gift bags on clearance once, so any time I have a gift to wrap, those are what I grab for first. Then I figure out a way to embellish it!

This one was super easy to transform for two of the biggest Cubbies fans (with a new one on the way) I know! I die cut some baby onesies with a die from MFT and used some circle punches to create the Cubs logo...DON"T forget the shimmer trim on those cute clothespins! ;)

Isn't the heart ribbon just the PERFECT addition?

Close to My Heart has a sale going on all month while supplies last on their line of Thin Cuts Dies so check them out over on my website soon! They are the perfect addition to any project! :)

And, yes, I did get that baby his very own Cubs merch, lol! ;)

Only during March

Marching On with This and That

Oh My. March. Soooooo much going on! Where do I start?

Let's start with ART!

I had the absolutely BEST time making this card way back at Thanksgiving for my cousin who was expecting at the time. Well, fast forward a bit and the baby is here! I used a new stamp set from Close to My Heart called This and That and a die from MFT to create a little bit of a different baby card sentiment for the shower.

Mmmmmm...love all those blues together! I blended Peacock, Glacier, Sea Glass, and Sapphire Exclusive Inks together with my daubers...and followed it up with some beautiful streamers from Way to Go across the negative image...

I bet I can find a way to use the onesie die cut now too! ;)

OK, while we are on the topic of die cuts...this month we have quite the celebration going on with a sale on the Close to My Heart Thin Cuts! CUT IT OUT!!!

Follow the links in my post to see which ones are still available!!!
