Now for the show 'n tell....

I made the ultimate gift for the MOM On The GO

An embellished 3-d gift card holder...

(I would HOP for joy if someone handed me one of these!)

This gift set is hopping into these challenges:
Digi Doodle Shop’s Best Challenge #31 Anything goes

Charisma Cardz Match Master (designer cup and gift card)

365 cards 365 cards inspired…I was most inspired by the brown wave-like flourishes surrounding “a.n.c.c.e.” –have you seen the top of the cup? 

BAH-HUMBUG Presents

Our Creative Corner Inspiration Challenge-the soft earthy colors, with hints of green and brown

*********************************************
I am always on the go!!

Some days I look like this image of mine...

MOM On The GO –digi by ARTish

Although I'd need a bigger pouch as I have 3 kiddos.

And I LOVE espresso...I'm hard pressed

to find people that do not frequent their local barista daily

(mine know me by name/ and beverage)

"Tish/ iced Venti Starbucks Double Shot Non-fat"

note~ I reprinted the image larger and applied the

(hand/ to-go cup) portion directly to the gift card

"Hand over the coffee and no one gets hurt!"

Just think how much HOPPING your friends and family

could do with a gift card holder like this one equipped with coffee dollars...

There would definitely be added 'perk' to their step!

Remember to become a follower

and leave a comment to be in the running for the prizes. :)

You now boing over to...

Our challenge gives you a choice, as always,

I chose METAL (wire to be specific)

and featured one of my

4 new realistic ARTish birds ala carte

(also sold as a set!! )

...and a few other 'ingredients' ...
The inspiration for how to use and manipulate the wire...

The result...

All colored...looking for a branch...

Home tweet home...

I purposely left wire 'tails' extending from both ends to insert into candle, and wrapped the 'inspirational' sprig around the bottom.

One Christmas present checked of the list!

In preparation for Thanksgiving Dinner

I used Eenie Meenie MINE digi by ARTish

to create place cards...

Can you you hear the "oohs and ahhhs" if you made these for

all of your Thanksgiving Day gobblers!?

Wonderful to color, unless you have a sweet tooth
