(sad face) It's our last day
with Core'dinations... it's been so
much fun playing with their cardstock
and seeing all the amazing projects
their team came up with!
We loved all the comments you
have been leaving all week!
You have through the weekend
to comment on all the posts this week
for a chance to win
*3* stamp sets from SSS. You can
also head over to Core for some sweet cardstock!

I'm closing out the week here
with something really fun I wanted to
share with you.
Last night I went to a 'favorite thing' party...
Have you ever heard of that?
Well, basically a whole bunch of women
get together and bring 5 of their favorite
thing that costs under $5. So, like lip gloss
or nail polish... or kitchen stuff... or... really
anything! When you enter the party you
write your name down on 5 sheets of paper...
and eventually, when the exchange happens
you present your favorite thing and pull 5 names
out of the box. So, you leave with 5 favorite things from
other people!
Anyway, this party has my name written all
over it! I mean, clearly... my favorite thing
is crafting ... so, I knew I was going to make
something..... you know how much I can do
with $5!?!?!?
So, here is what I made...
I made a card with this little bird nest necklace.
(btw, the necklace was SUPER easy to make!)
I used Core cardstock for the necklace b/c I wanted
paper that was *really* sturdy... and it worked so
nice! LOVE that lemon yellow! So pretty!
I sanded the edges and it just looked so simple and
nice!
To give them away I put them in the clear boxes
with a envelope so that they could keep the card...
OR they could gift it away!
You can find those boxes on the website...
LOVE THEM!
I used 'Sentimental Birds'
You can find that HERE in the shop.
Also, as a little sneak... we're partnering
with another amazing company next week
and I'm sure that you're going to LOVE the
inspiration from it!
SO, be sure to check back in with us
on Monday for lots more fun inspiration!
