Pillow Boxes

For Mother's Day, I made three pillow boxes - one for my wonderful Mother-in-Law, one for Mimi (grandma-in-law), and one for my church mom.  Will be putting some jewelry in these...

I also made 36 pillow box favors for my church's tea party that we are having on Saturday.  Each favor has a tea bag in it :)

I bought Basic Grey paper for the favors and I love love love it!  Awesome paper...
I so love the Bigz pillow box die :)  SU! stamps.

For the Mother's Day pillow boxes, I made the flowers using the flower and leaf shapes from the Plantin Schoolbook cartridge.

Mother's Day stuff

Hi everyone!

So I finally took pics of the Mother's Day cards I will mailing out tomorrow.   My Dad's birthday is Saturday and I will be mailing him a card too :)

All SU! paper.  I played with the Sizzix butterflies die and I LOVE IT!!!  I also used a textured plate for two of the cards and some embossing folders :)  The angel and flower border on the front of Mimi's card is from the Paper Dolls dress up cartridge and I used a Peachy Keen stamp for the face :)  I really like this cartdridge!  I also found myself falling in love with the nestabilities die and embossing set!

Enjoy!
