Nugget Box


Here is a little Nugget box that I made very quickly the other day. The cardstock is Bazzill and the patterned papers are from the Basic Grey "Phoebe" line. The flowers are hydrangea punches from Martha Stewart, and the twill ribbon is also Martha Stewart. The "bigger" rhinestones are 3mm Darice from J's and the smaller ones are 2mm nail gems I got off eBay.

The directions to make the box came from here:

"Get Better" Band-Aid Card


How cute is this Band-Aid??

The base was cut from flesh colored Bazzill with the Wild Card cart at 6.5". It fits into a #10 envelope. The phrase was cut from red Bazzill and colored in with Xmas Red Stickles.

Ummmm....That's it!! How much easier can you get??

"Thinking of You" Card

This was a fun little card to make, although the pic makes the colors look a little wonky.

The card base was cut from light green Bazzill at 5.25" with the Wild Card cart. It fits into a standard A2 envelope, so it's not very big. :) The phrase was cut from purple Bazzill and colored with purple Stickles. The outside "ring" was cut from the same purple cardstock and was embossed with the Cuttlebug Swiss Dots folder. The little flower gems are from M's.

"Hi" Card

I like this tri-fold card a lot better. It just look "happier" to me. :)

Same as the other one, it was cut from Bazzill cardstock at 9" with the Wild Card cart. It fits into a #10 envelope. The phrase was colored in with Turquoise Stickles. The printed paper is from the My Mind's Eye Magnolia/Wild Asparagus combo pack they sold at Costco a while ago. The flowers are Prima and the little 5mm rhinestones are made by Darice.

Simple, simple!!

"Hi" Card

This is a fun little tri-fold card, although I'm not too crazy about the colors and how it turned out overall. The picture makes it look even worse! LOL

The card was cut from Bazzill cardstock with the Wild Card cart at 9". It fits into a #10 letter size envelope. The phrase was cut from brown Bazzill and colored in with Cinnamon Stickles. The printed paper is from the My Mind's Eye Signature Suite pad (I told you I love it! LOL). The ribbon is American Crafts, the flowers are Prima, and the little rhinestone is 5mm and made by Darice.

"Hope" Card


Ugh. I don't think I like the Calligraphy cart much. Some pieces are just so thin!!

Standard white card base yet again. (I love those things and they are so cheap when they are on sale!) The background paper is from the My Mind's Eye Signature Suite pad. The "Hope" was cut at 1.5" from Bazzill cardstock using the Calligraphy cart. The background oval was also cut at 1.5" and embossed with the Swiss Dots folder in the Cuttlebug. 2 mini brads attach them to the background paper and the little flower gems are from M's.

Frustration from the Calligraphy cart aside, this was yet another very easy and simple card.

'Get Well Soon" Card

Continuing today with the cards I've made recently...

This one is pretty similar to the Get Well one I posted yesterday. It uses the same 4" 5.5" white base, and the printed paper is from a K&Company pad. The phrase was cut from Bazzill cardstock using the Beyond Birthdays cart at 2". The red polka dot strip is the reverse side of the background paper - you gotta love double sided paper!! A couple of blue Prima flowers with a brad finish this one off.

If this had been any easier, I could have done it in my sleep. :)
