I have been busy the past few days making these little surprise boxes for the ladies who are coming to my workshop tomorrow. I found out that I will have 13 ladies which surprised the manager as she said they don’t usually leave their apartments. I thought I would make them a little something to make their day. These are the 3 nugget boxes you can find on this post at Splitcoast Stampers. I modified…
Happy Saturday everyone! Thanks for stopping in today. I wanted to share with you some cards I will be doing at a workshop on Monday.

Well here is the last card I made using the Sweet Stems glittered images. This one was the hardest one to do as an idea just didn’t come to me. I actually had all the pieces put together and when I went to arrange them on the card my original plan did not work so I had to rethink it.
