OK its time for me to fall FLAT on my exhausted face!

I wish! Alexa has her post Chemo follow up and my brother and his girlfriend are flying in today for their move in! Sooner than planned, but so is life. You know what they say, no rest for the weary!

I really want to thank everyone who has left comments, and supported me in this new venture of My TimelessTemplates © over the last few days, while introducing this product. I am really proud of the way everything has turned out, and all the hard work Nichole and the team at Papertrey Ink put into launching the product, and the AMAZING samples done with it. BIG THANKS!

I know I was most likely unbearable with my blabbering during this process and now I take a big sigh of relief. This is real! It truly happened! LOL! WOW! Now to see people use the templates….that will be so crazy!! I can’t even stand it!

I hope you enjoy the templates, and thank you all who try them out. I hope you remember to share them with me, as I am excited to see many of you venture into templates now. I’m posting my challenges in a little while, so I hope you return, as I also have a few samples too.

Now it is time to share my release projects!

I have a few projects with the new releases using my templates! Those will be listed separately as they are part of the Challenge I am posting.

Now my thoughts on the release projects. I always have a few that I really love. This month my templates are obviously a huge favorite, like my Box of snow-that uses my template was my big favorite, as was my recipe for Ice Cream Sundae party, and my Holiday cards post. I really like everything this month and had to STOP myself from going and going.

OK here we go!

The Recipe Box & Recipe box lable set is over the top amazing! My project is here! I have more to share using that set soon!! I loved it. SO many awesome uses for that one, let me tell you.

Warm Happiness- Well I LOVE my coffee, and was so happy to see PTI come out with a coffee/tea set!! Heather did a great job with this one. I so love it, and will certainly be using it more.

This little travel tea packet is the perfect little gift to leave for a friend! Just hang it on their door, so they can find it as they return home from a long day! Isn’t it cute? I just used a hobby blade to make an opening at the top of the cup! OR if you have a sick friend this is another great little thinking of you, without bugging them! LOL!

Apple Crisp for the teacher

Before I begin with announcing the winners of the templates,  I have one more idea to enable you BEFORE the actual release! LOL!

This uses the For Keep{sake} template! I created it to look like an apple, and put some homemade Apple Crisp mix inside 😀

Bottom is pure poppy cardstock, top is the new ripe avocado! Cute huh?

apple-for-teacher.jpg 

Another view

There is a “apple” stamped on the acetate window using a solid image from Flower Garden, in Pure Poppy ink, and the leaf with Ripe Avocado ink . Teacher sentiment is Limitless labels, stamped in white StazOn.

The bag of apple crisp has a wrinkle-not my window! LOL! I wanted to keep it fresh so its in a Ziplock baggie.

For the top apple stem I knotted through some dark chocolate twill, and adhered 2 Prima leaves on top! I think this is SUPER cute and was SUPER easy! Just print, cut, score and done!

OK Im done enabling! I know you will LOVE it, and if none of this has made you yet, then once you try the FREE download you are SURE to fall in love!

DONE TALKING!
