If you have been a reader for a year or so, this bag topper might look a little familiar to you. :) I gave it a bit of a make-over and teamed up with Cindy from Skip To My Lou who had the GREAT idea of printing some shamrock’s on a white paper bag, isn’t it CUTE!?!?  There is a tutorial on putting the bags together in last year’s post, in case you want more directions, but it is basically print, exacto around the shamrock, fold, attach to bag.  EASY!  The toppers are designed to print on a 5×7.  The printables include completed toppers in jpeg and pdf formats or if you would prefer, you can create your own with the digital supplies and template.

If you want to print on the bag, you will want to fold the gusset of the bag opposite of the seem, so it will print on the side without the seem.  You will want to make sure that the gusset is leading into the printer (not the opening of the bag).  It can be a little tricky and you might need to flip the graphic and print more than once to get it right, but it is worth it because it’s so CUTE!!

P.S. Congratulations to Terri who is the random winner chosen from the comment in Heather Roselli’s feature yesterday, here’s what she said:  I (((LOVE))) Heather’s DIY hybrid projects! I just had to buy some (thanks for the coupon, btw). My favorite kit, tho, is “What’s Your Story?”. It’s WONDERFUL. Thanks for the chance to win.

THANKS to everyone who participated!

love notes + a gift for you

February 3rd, 2010 Katie Posted in A Bright Idea, A Gift For You 17 Comments »

We LOVE our readers here at The Daily Digi, so we thought we thought it would be fun to share a Valentine inspired gift with you today! This free download will only be available through February 14th so hurry and grab it before it’s gone!

This layered template is sized at 2.5 inches by 3 inches which is the standard size for Artist Trading Cards. I (Katie) thought they would also be the perfect size to make Valentine’s Cards and Love Notes with, so I am excited to share a few fun ideas with you!

I often had to buy 2 boxes of little valentine cards for each of my children to give their classmates, and then I would end up with a few extra ones to discard. If I had been a digital scrapbooker back in those days I could have easily customized my own cards using a template like this one and printed out as many as I needed. If you want to print your own cards, you might enjoy this post how to party with digital scrapbook supplies for some tips on paper and printing.

Beyond printing needs, the nice thing about making your own little Valentines is that they are much more meaningful to give away. You can customize this template using the included papers, or any fun digital kit you want to get more use out of.

I made a few sweet “Love Notes” for my own children.

I like to call these “Love Notes” because they really are like miniature love letters to my children telling them something special that I cherish about them. I love the idea of printing up sweet notes like this throughout the year. No need to limit sharing love to Valentine’s Day only!

This is also a fun way to be creative with your photos.

I love taking pictures of (and eating!) yummy cookies and it was very easy to turn this photo into a unique valentine card.

The great thing about using a photo is that you can create your own theme. Take a picture of your child’s favorite toy and turn it into something special!

Once Valentine’s Day is over, use this template to create Love Notes or gift tags throughout the year. I think you will be amazed at how much you can do with this nifty little template!

For even more fun, you might enjoy creating your very own Artist Trading Cards. Here are a few links to give you ideas:

Enjoy!

bday banner What kind of a birthday party would be complete without a birthday banner? One lucky winner will win TWO banners (so you have enough pendents to spell out HAPPY BIRTHDAY!) I LOVE these chalk oilcloth banners by Modern June and must say that I am very envious of whomever wins these! Cute colorful oilcloth on the back and chalk oilcloth on the front, so you can change the expression based on the event you are celebrating. Watch for these banners to make an appearance in the February issue of one of my favorite magazines, Country Living.

My girls keep me filled with joy and very busy too. I crochet in between laundry loads, dishes and kids! But it all works out pretty well.
