I love craft time: Rustic Bridal Shower Gift & Designer Paper Series Sale!!

This past week we honored a co-worker with a surprise bridal shower. It was so much FUN and she was totally surprised. She had previously mentioned wanting to decorate her home with rustic décor. Don't you love my wrapping? A friend of mine saves all her packaging (and so much more for me) and I always find great uses for them - this was one of them! I enjoy repurposing items.

When I first walked into the "Big Box Store" I was drawn to the gingham basket.
PS. I almost purchased myself one too but restrained. In case you didn't know I love baskets, BAGs, paper, fabric,... shall I keep going? As I kept walking I saw the placements, napkins and BIG coffee mugs. The light bulb went on, because I knew I had some black and white gingham paper that I could "whip up" some personalized note cards with her future married name monogram. I also made extras to wrap a couple of the napkins and some tags. The wreath was from a previous Paper Pumpkin (read more how you can get your monthly crafting kit below and/or give it as a gift) that I created, however it had been in my craft closet for a someday gift - the added green gave the gift a special touch.

The gift basket was a hit, everyone couldn't believe I made the cards --hahah! Note to SELF...I better start sharing more of the cards I create with the office. I have been behind and need to dedicate some time at my correspondence desk (that post coming soon). Everyone passed it around and asked if they could order some, or if I could teach them or if I had classes --- Ummmm YES! Let's get together, your place or mine? They all pulled out their planners and we set a date this month - YAY!
