Faith with Hugs and Blessings

Aloha All!
Sharing a prototype of an easel card as a favor or little gift that incorporates "Faith" as an acronym.  I'm working on samples for an inventory and this is just the idea trying to come to fruition..... what do you think?  The combination of colors and embellishments are virtually endless and limitless!!

Below is a side view so you can see the "easel" affect.  There are so many beautiful samples out there.  I got the dimensions from ... I believe it was Splitcoasters resource list of tutorials.

Thank you for stopping by!
Gentle blessings and
quiet joys to you and yours

Still creating

Aloha All!
Sorry I've been absent.   Although much time has been spent helping to take care of my dad, it was mom who ended up at Castle Hospital with concerns of the heart.  I spent all weekend on the phone and at the hospital... but wanted to share with  you another birthday gift I created for my good friend Sheila at work...

 Yes - I love creating these birthday boxes!!  My family and friends always seem so delighted to receive one.  I always have the flickering light on inside when I presentit to them and ask them to open it right away...

and when they open it and see the candle lit up - they gasp!!! and love it as much as I love giving it to them. 


These pictures above, show what it looks like when the box is opened and falls open.  The picture on the right shows two different covers because I couldn't decide what to create for her.  I took two of them to work and at the last moment felt the one on the bottom of the picture was the right one for her.

Thank you for stopping by!

Grace and peace to you.

Another Thank you

Good grief!!  It's April already!!  Can you believe it!?!
Want to share another little gift I created as a thank you to blood donors.  Helping to schedule the blood donors at Dole facilities for Kaiser has new meaning for  me since my dad has had to have a blood transfusion last month.  I am not able to donate for medical reasons so I REALLY appreciate all of you out there who volunteer and take the time to donate blood. 
This is a candy/gift holder created with one sheet of paper, folded to form a mini 'package' with the tops folded down into each other.


this is is picture of the gift as it opens up to find the treats inside.  Again I used red and black with a thank you label that I tried to make look like a blood drop.  Thank for stopping by.
