Blues and Greens for the Bride

Over the weekend I attended a bridal shower for a friend getting married in July! I combed the registry to get an idea of her colors and decided to make her a kitchen gift set. I wanted her to have something special and handmade. I wanted her to have something you couldn't buy in a store. Something she would know was made just for her.

Here was her card...

Yes, I'm still on the free motion sewing kick!
Here's a closeup...

I made her a hot pad holder...

And, a decorative dish towel...

And, an apron...

And, they all match!!!!

Sending Wedding Congrats

I wanted the card that accompanied my cousin's gift to be lovey dovey, unique, and kinda shiny! I love using hearts and my gold gel pen! Those Unibal gel pens from Stampin' Up! are awesome!!

And, I had to use some of that lovely red glitter paper! No, it's not just for Valentine's Day!

I used chocolate chip cardstock along with old olive cardstock and ink. The designer paper is from JBS Mercantile.

Happy Thursday!
