Sunny Saturday in Cleveland

I can't believe what a mild winter we're having here in Cleveland. It started out at 52 this morning but has slowly gone down.  The sun helps a lot.
This is one of the 4 things we made this month at our make it take it class. It is a box that I saw at Dawn's website found here: I made my box bigger so it would hold 4 standard cards and envelopes.
This is the new paper called Twitterpated in the Occasions Mini.
I have to tell you I love how this came out. Cherry background paper with dotted swiss embossing at the bottom. I used the SU Lace Ribbon Border with white paper then added twitterpated paper and cherry ruffled ribbon and pearls. I punched out the butterfly twice. Once it attached to the background then the top one is mounted at the fold and pulled forward for depth.
I wanted to showcase some of the SAB stuff so I used this stamp set with the ribbon and brad pack. This was a very popular card. Ladies wanted to buy this stuff and I told them they couldn't but they could order $50 and get one.
This is the last card we made. We ran it through the cuttlebug and added a strip of paper from twitterpated then added the heart from the heart punch, two small hearts from the sizzlet die and flowers from the doily triple layer punch.
Here's my gift pouch for today's challenge. This was for today's SU Inspiration challenge. This was originally demonstrated by Shelly at Leadership this year. I saw it on Allison's you tube video found here.
I love how this came out. I used Twitterpated designer paper new in the SU mini right now. I also used Apothocary Art stamps. The color of ink, ribbon and flowers are cherry.  This would be nice for a bit of chocolate, a gift card, a small hostess gift, the possibilities are endless.

Well, it's time to get to work stuff.  I promised myself that I'd play today and clean up my stamping area, then I had to work.
I talked to my friend Jane today.  She is hosting a Bible Study beginning Thursday. I told her she needs to  be aware of the ways Satan will try to get her to cancel it.  She commented that she'd already been experiencing thoughts of cancelling.  So we're praying that God will do great things through this Bible Study.
Thanks for stopping by today.
Blessings,
