Stocking Stuffers

Hello Friends! Did you have a nice weekend? I certainly did! We finally got our Christmas tree and put up all of our holiday decorations, so I'm a happy girl right about now! Paige has been focused on the lights on the tree and it's so sweet to see her little face sparkle!

After I made the grocery list for my girlfriend, I realized what a great stocking stuffer those would be. So, I whipped up a few more to add to some Christmas gifts. One will be going to my mom (hence the one that says Helen's grocery list). I made the mistake of putting her name on the first one I gave to her so now she expects it on every one of them! LOL!

These are pretty self explanatory as you've seen them many, many times! I used the same pad of paper for all of them, October Afternoon's 9 to 5 collection and then I varied the sentiments on each. I like the color combos on these, and hopefully it will be a nice little surprise in their gift bags!

 

I hope you have a wonderful day and thank you so much for stopping by!

New and Improved Grocery List

Hello Friends! I hope your week is off to a great start! So far, so good over here. Today I have a quick post to share with a new grocery list template. The previous one I was using was from Papertrey Ink and I had to print it and cut it by hand. It wasn't terrible, but it was a tad-bit time consuming. Now that I have my Silhouette, I was able to find a template that I could just press "cut" and not only does the machine cut it, but it adds the perforated lines down the spine as well! Talk about saving time! This template is a little larger than the previous one, so I used my friend Jeanette as the tester. She LOVED it! It still fits comfortably in her purse and for me it's a no-brainer that I'll turn to this template again and again and again! Here's a photo...

Can you say easy-peasy?! Even the patterned paper on the front of the grocery list was cut with my Silhouette and as you can see it fits perfectly! I used the Friendship Jar stamp set from Papertrey Ink, a little patterned paper and a ribbon finish it off. I'm sure this will not be the last time you see one of these!

 

Have a great day and thanks so much for stopping by!

Grocery List

Hello friends! I love making these little grocery lists. I have one in my purse so it's always handy when I need to jot down the things I need from the grocery store. If I don't write it down, it definitely won't make it into my cart (just ask my husband!). These little pads are perfect for just about anything, and small enough to carry around with you.

For this grocery list, I used Hawaiian Shores cardstock from Papertrey Ink as well as their stamp set called Take Note. As you can see the inside of the notepad has a small pocket which is perfect for coupons! These days we all need to use a coupon or two, or three..., the patterned paper used is my newest obsession from October Afternoon called Woodland Park.

I hope you all liked today's post, and I look forward to having you back real soon!
