Hello and Happy Monday Crafty Friends!
Theresa here from Theresa's Crafty Creations!!
Today I'm sharing a gift set I made for
one of my boys who has a Birthday next week!
My son is in the Marines and he's stationed in Hawaii -
So this set is PERFECT for him since he loves the water
and loves to play guitar! 😀
My card front was really easy to put together since it was an "extra"
I had lying around in one of my craft stash bags - The Orange cardstock &
designer paper/scallop edge was already put together when I found it.
The Surfer image was already colored too, it's from
Your Next Stamp and I colored him with Copic Markers
along time ago. The designer papers for my Card front are
from SU and are really old. I decided to use a Stitched
rectangle die to trim it down then I wrapped some
Orange Limeade Trendy Twine around the front.
I then wanted my Surfer Dude to stand out a little more so
I found a scrap piece of that DP and used a stitched
circle die to place behind him. I popped the circle up with dimensionals.
I stamped the "Mahalo" Word on a Stitched banner die with
some Momento Black ink.
I adhered the Card front to a piece of Orange Fun Foam
then attached it to my White Card base!
I LOVE how it looks and My son will love it!

Now I was ready to work on my tag! I found a little more of
that DP in my scrap pile and added it to an already cut out orange
tag I had in my Scrap bag! (nice way to use up those extras) we
all seem to have on hand! 😉
I wrapped a piece of Orange Limeade Trendy Twine
around my tag and added an orange stitched zig-zag border
piece (also found in my stash). Then stamped the CUTE Sentiment
stamps from the Choose Happy Stamp set onto a
stitched white circle piece I found as well...
I attached it all to my tag then found some blue stars
I could also add - I really need to look at my
Scrap bag stashes more often! I have way too many
extra pieces lying around in my craft room! 😁
Then I wrapped more Orange Limeade Trendy Twine around the
Guitar top and attached the tag and made a double bow.
I thought you might like to see the guitar sucker I found
at my local 99¢ Store! It was the perfect match up to my card!
I've already mailed this set off to him - Hopefully, he'll
get it just in time for his Birthday!!!

I love that you had a lot of the paper scraps already in your stash. Great way to use those pieces that don't quite work for other projects. This is such a fun set! I love how bright and colorful it is. The Trendy Twine matches so well! Thanks for being guest designer this month.
