fresh idea friday with eryn...creating "pretty" gifts....

HELLO!!  It's Eryn posting today with a FRESH IDEA!!
{well, maybe it's not "fresh" but it is an idea!} ;)

I decided to put my {ippity} stamps to work and create some "pretty" gifts for my friends & family...

GLASS PENDANTS...

I uesd the LIVE LAUGH LOVE stamp from the, Simply Home set to create this first one.
I like to add additional charms when I wear these....I love the BE YOU one on this one.
{I actully cut the stamp apart to do this...remember Michelle's tip about cuttin your stamps?}

Here are those BEAUTIFUL Butterflies from the kit What Matters Most...
oh and as I type this I am thinking about all the other {ippity} stamps that will be fun to use...like that MUSIC background...hmmmm, thinking...thinking...thinking!  ;)

Just a quick pic of the back.

These were so hard to take a photo of...
that glare takes away from the "cuteness" of them! " :)
But I thought a little set of MAGNETS would be FUN as well...using those same butterflies from What Matters Most.

A wonderful co-worker of mine had this quote posted on her facebook page the other day...
I LOVE IT!

  10. Eryn, these are adorable!
    I also would like to know where you purchased the clear squares?
    I have some one inch I think they are called memory tiles, but these look thicker and I like the look better. Have seen the round, although the ones I have found are never a perfect circle.
    Do you have a good place to buy these or are you finding them at your Micheals?
    Have a great week!

    P.S. I won the IHHC18 ( i think it was 18!?),and did e-mail my info on that tuesday,but have not received the handle yet...should I have?
    just wanted to check! :) Thank you!
