Birthday cards for a man!

So this was the original card I made to give to my dad for his birthday, however I bought the new Cuttlebug today and I was so excited to use it that I had to make a new card for my dad!! What do you think?

My dad's original birthday card

The cuttlebug-ed birthday card

For the metal looking diamond plating I actually just used aluminum foil that was folded up several time so that  it would hold its embossing a bit better. for the label I used the playtime cartridge and the black lines is black twine. I think it came out pretty good! I hope he will like it :)

My Dad's Birthday Gift!

Hey everyone, I know I have posted quite a bit today, but I just wanted to share with you something that I just finished making for my dad's birthday that is on Thursday (yep a St. Patty's baby!) Well here it is...

Isn't it absolutely ADORABLE???!!!


These are little cookies I made to give as gifts to guests at his birthday dinner.

I absolutely love, love, love these little cookies and I can't wait to see the look on his face when I bring them to dinner on Thursday!!

**I'm also considering selling these as well, what do you think?

Fabric "magic wallets"

Hey everybody, just wanted to take a minute to share with you my fabric "magic wallets". This isn't the first time I have made these, but these are just a couple I made the other day. These make great birthday, Christmas or anytime gifts. They really are fun and will leave you wondering just how they work. I love watching people try to figure out how they are made or how they work.


**On a side note, I have decided to sell some of my homemade products, including these adorable "magic wallets", and to celebrate this new business venture I'm considering doing a giveaway of one of these cute little wallets, but I would like to see if anyone would be interested in winning one? So leave me a comment, and please please please become a follower!! :)
