YES! I really did have a project for My Timeless Template Challenge <—–click there to see challenge details. My team totally ROCKED out the templates! I’m in awe.
Another short and sweet post since I feel like the WALKING DEAD, and I have that field trip to go one. Its a LONG nature hike-GOOD TIMES! (NOT!)
For my project today I used my newest template Ready, Set, Wrap! I really love that one. Gets a great gift wrap done in a jiffy 😀
I was just seriously delayed in photographing and editing it 😀 SO I apologize for that. Sometimes LIFE gets in the way.
Anywho……
Here is my gift item:
Made with love
This is a large cuttlebug die. It has 3 or 4 matching embossing folders with it. I NEVER use it (insert shocked face here!) but now is the perfect time! I love how I was able to make a window in my Ready, Set, Wrap box!
I love purple AND butterflies so this was EASY PEASY for me. Once I saw that paper I KNEW that it was perfect.
So there was NO waste here either. I used the die cut pieces-that were left over from creating my window butterfly, and layered them together to use as a keytag! I love that 😀
Here is the closer view of the stamped window.
It reads: Made with love, and has a flower that I colored using my Singlo Opaque pens.
I used the JustRite Stampers set: Tiny words & Borders in white StazOn to make it. Its so sweet and subtle! You can also get them here
Inside are some Raspberry chocolates from Seattle something. All I knew was they matched my project, so I was happy. Can you tell Im sick! Im totally brain dead these days! YIKES! Can’t remember ANYTHING. Oh and too lazy to go find the info! LOL! SORRY :C
The paper is PTI pale plum, and Lavender moon, and the patterned paper NEW! to me. NO IDEA who makes that-sorry. I chopped it all up :D) Feels good to not HOARD it. Sorta!
The flowers are by American Crafts. I think they are a nice touch.
Well that is it for me.
Wish me luck on the field trip 😀
I have been uber busy creating so I hope to share LOTS more soon!
Thanks for stopping by, and I hope you play along with the challenge!

Adorable! I love how the butterfly is cut out and the tags. After seeing so much purple, it makes me want to create more purple things. 🙂 I hope you feel better. Have fun on your field trip. I’ve got one today, too.

Get well soon Lauren!
Love this project…that butterfly window looks fabulous!
I love the project. I have to tell you what happened to me with your blog on Monday I think. I hadn’t gotten an updated e-mail and so I clicked on one from a day or two before and it took me to your blog and we had traveled back in time. It was all “Make a Wish” stuff and you had a picture of what looked like the Golden Gate bridge on the top and Amber was just turning 3. I’m like, whoa, what happened. It was fun to look at all that stuff because I wasn’t following your blog then.
OMG…this is incredible! LOVE the butterfly window with the subtle sentiment stamped in the corner! So pretty. Your tag is awesome as well, and I love how you used two tones of CS for the base and the wrapped part. AWESOME!
Love the colors on this project Lauren. I really like how you stamped and colored on your window!
