We went to a picnic over the weekend and I decided to make the hostess a little package of note cards......about 15 minutes before we were ready to leave....ooops. So I got some Stampin'Up! note cards and envelopes---already cut & scored, that's a time-saver right there! I pulled out Sweet Stems and stamped each image on some Whisper White cardstock, then colored them in quickly with some markers, blender pen and ink. Then I punched them out with a circle punch and mounted each one on a scallop punched from a K&Co Berry Sweet mat pad, and adhered each one to a note card.
Here's a closeup of each one:
I packaged them up real quick in a little cello bag and wrapped some Baja Breeze ribbon around and made a little emblem with a sentiment from PTI's Mixed Messages. Phew! Made it just in time! TFL!
A beautiful hostess gift! Just 15 minutes to make and photograph...you left on time, right?

Wow!! I'm impressed. If I thought of taking a gift 15 minutes before, I'm afraid I would sigh and say "Next time". You are amazing.
