Yay it's Friday & a Happy One to you friends!! I am in painting pergatory right now, hee hee---oh how I hate to paint! When we moved in our house we had the entire house painted professionally cuz' I hate it soooo much--but I didn't want to wait for anyone to come this time so I've tackled it myself, YUCK! I know some people love to paint (crazies, lol) but I don't know why--it's messy, boring & takes too long. I just wanna move everything in & be done already ya know--and my hubby is SO the OPPOSITE of me. He's slow & steady & I'm ADD super-fast & want it all done right now, LOL--so getting him to hang shelves & bring up the furniture in "my time frame" is gonna be a struggle for sure! I'm makin' him a big pot of his favorite chili tomorrow to sweeten him up a bit, hee hee---oh the powers of sweet-talk & good food :o) After 14 years together I know how to "work him", shhhh don't tell him that though, bwahahahhh! But "MY" plan is to be done by Sunday evening so we'll see....!

Today I'm sharing a project that I hadn't previously shown that I did during my guest stint for All That Scraps last month. This 3x3 Notecard Gift Set uses the fabulously cute "Bumble B Bear" stamp set! I just love all the fun images that come in this set--had to use them all on one gift!! All of the cardstock & dp is from Paper Trey Ink.
All of the notecards are 3x3" and use similar elements. The honeypot got a thick coat of diamond glaze on it and the bee's & bear's wings have diamond stickles on them. On the bear card there are 3 Bella Baubles in copper.
For this card I cut the bee out & perched him on top of 2 stacked Primas--so cute!
I love, love to make these fun 4x4" boxes--you can find the directions to it right HERE. Very easy to make & quick too! I just decorated the box with the same materials, wrapped the lid w/ ribbon & added a fun charm! Just a great gift to make for someone special in your life (great teacher gifts too)!Hope you have a fabulous Friday & I'll see ya back here with a "surprise" sneakie peekie & project for the Copic Creations Challenge Blog, so stop back by 'kay!!
