I bought my daughter's dorm-mates store-bought gifts for Christmas but I wanted to make them something as well. I decided to give them little date books (free ones from the popular card shop), which I love! I covered them in heavy designer card stock from Stampin' Up and then added a happy embellishment in the centre (so they are reminded to enjoy life and be happy every day of the year). The stamp is from the Think Happy Thoughts set and I popped it up on layers of card stock and a scallop. I inked all the edges and added a pearl in the middle of the flower. I wrapped these in Santa cello gift bags along with a package of caramel snowmen. Yum!
On this last day of 2010 I am very proud to say that I have missed only one day posting this entire year! I love to find something new on the blogs I visit so I really try to have something new for you here each day. I hope you find content that inspires, educates, or entertains you and I will strive to offer you more next year.
I wish you all a wonderful and happy 2011! Happy New Year!
