Humming Bird Gift Set

Hi fellow crafters!!

I can not believe it has been almost two months since my last post!  I haven't felt well enough to get on my computer to post any of the crafts that I've managed to make.  I have made a few project since I last posted, though!  Hopefully I will e able to post them all here within the next few days. I'll start with these :)

My mom asked me to make a few things for a very good friend of hers, so she gave me a theme and some general ideas, and I went to work!!!

Here is one of those notepads with a magnetic closure that are perfect for putting in your purse!!  It was just a basic, plain color... and my mom didn't want me to go too crazy on it. :)   I thought about covering it with decorative paper, but then realized that once it goes in and out of your purse...the paper would get mangled.  So I just stamped and heat embossed it!  Of course, I forgot to take a "before" picture!! ARG!! But here is the inside of the notepad, I know you have all seen these!
Here it is stamped and heat embossed:
I don't know which picture is best, because they all look the same to me...but hopefully one shows the embossing detail!

Here is a set of six cards that I made also, that have the same humming bird stamp/embossed image:
The inside of all the cards say "A note from _____" (the lady's name.)  I had fun making them, and I think they turned out pretty. :)

I also made a box for the cards/envelopes to go in:
This picture is just to show the 'belly band' sliding off:


Thanks for stopping by!
