This week over on the A*Muse Challenge Blog the theme is to create anything but a card.

So I thought I would share one of the projects at my recent workshop --- a post-it note holder made from an upside down acrylic frame.

I saw this at a stamp convention a few years back and decided to make it my own.

I took the Script Background and stamped that on Pebble cardstock and slipped that into the frame.  Then stamped Just for You and die cut out that vintage label.

The key FUN element here is the WASHI TAPE!!!

Do you see it on the frame and then coordinating on the washi tape covered pencil!!!!

I made this card a few weeks ago for my favorite PEEP's birthday.

It utilizes a bunny scrap left over from the bunny boxes that I made below.  I sponged the sky background and added the cloud.  The sentiment (which I love!) is from the For Peeps Sake set. I added gingham and polka dot cardstock, ribbon and a button.

Last month we made these boxes at the Rockford Stamp Show as part of the Make and Take.

They were filled with yummy Jelly Beans!

It went over very well using the new Candy Box Die and Bunny Dies.

We used the Papaya Shimmer Cardstock for an added touch of class!

Today is my day to host the challenge over on the a*muse studio challenge blog.

For my challnege ... I chose to create a card or project using a*muse dies!!

A*Muse has some AMAZING DIES ... they have paired up with Spellbinders and who better to pair up with for EXCLUSIVE dies????  

For this card I used the bunny dies, the egg die, the grass die, and the cloud die.

I used kraft, buttercup, grass, sky, pistachio, sugar, and shell cardstock.  I stamped the eggs with polka dot patterns and I used the sentiment from Say it with Style.

I popped the grass and clouds for a little added extra dimension.  I added some mini black pearls for eyes on the bunny.  I added the white sheer ribbon to wrap up the whole card  :)

Please come over to the a*muse challenge blog and play along!!!  I'd appreciate your support and if you are not currently an a*muse consultant you could be my big WINNER - an assortment of die cuts!

I made this card last week for a friend of mine that likes to buy cards from me ... she bought quite a few that I made so you will see them all here over the next couple of weeks.

I love this color combo of Bermuda polka dot and Pebble.  I used the Woo Hoo for You stamp set and paper pieced her dress and hairbows.  I colored her with copics.

Pretty plain and simple ... but I love this look!!!

.... Here's the Woo Hoo for me ....

In my real life (my work life) ... I have been up for a promotion for just about 13 months .... was promised it last August and then last October ... both times I was asked to delay my promotion due to customer circumstances beyond their control ... personally I think it was punshment for being too good  :) 

Well ... tomorrow marks my first day in the NEW job ... I move across the street, I get and office with a window and a door (which will be nice) ... I will be the Director of Clinical Project Management for my company and will have quite a few people reporting to me ...

I no longer will run the majority of my own projects, but instead will be responsible for this newer department and overseeing all of them/their projects.

I am very excited although it is a big change for me ... I am a little nervous!  Wish me well this week!
