Make It Monday #102

I can see how addictive this is going to be.  Stamping on to pillow boxes gives you the flexibility to customize your gift to any occasion.  With Valentines just around the corner a pillow box is the perfect size to slip a treat, a gift card or even a little gift.  Who wouldn't love to get one of these on Valentines with a charm for your Pandora bracelet inside?  Oh how I wish hubby could stamp.  All kidding aside creating this box was easy and so much fun.

Papertrey Ink Blog Hop - September

It's the 25th so time for another Papertrey Ink Blog Hop!  

It has been a difficult week, my father-in-law passed away last Saturday after battling aggressive lung cancer for the past 6 months.  We are so sad to see him go, a wonderful father, father-in-law and grandfather. My kids are taking it very hard, maybe because they are a bit older and understand better what happened.  They were very close to Papa and we saw them every week.  We have the funeral ahead of us tomorrow and then the business of healing.

I almost skipped this month but I didn't want to miss out on the fun and actually I think I needed the diversion.  So I created a little gift tag out of burlap and felt.  This would be very cool attached to a present wrapped in kraft paper or to a wine bottle.   Have fun at the rest of the hop.
