Stamped Tie On Tassel

My Very Educated Mother just joined our blog design team and she created a really unique project for us. A stamped tassel that you can use as a key chain, decorative element when gift giving, and even in your home decor, this is a fun and completely unique project. (Never would have thought of this one! This is one of the reasons I love having our design team. They really open us up to new ideas!)

She used the Frenchie Peel & Stick pack which contains the Fleur De Lis -- just a great decorative element. 

 I also love that she chose to use the centering block. It really illustrates how you can get perfect alignment with our tools and accessories.

A Very Family Weekend

This weekend was one of the best family weekends in my memory. We celebrated my mother-in-law's 73rd birthday, my grandfather's 89th birthday and my cousin's 21st at an epic celebration at my parents.  We packed in some pool time (thanks to some warm weather and a heated pool), and fit in a St. Patrick's Day celebration, too.  I am so thankful to celebrate milestone birthdays with my family and spend some quality time with everyone.

My children are really becoming friends. Saturday morning was a lazy one spent in pj's and Molly reading to Connor.

Saturday afternoon, the joint birthday party started early!  It was a gorgeous day so the kids took a spin in their "car."

So fun to celebrate my grandfather's 89th birthday! My aunt and uncle who live in Ohio, as well as my cousin who lives in Asheville were there to celebrate too. 

What a fun celebration! We were lucky enough for some warm Sunday weather, too.

We had our St Patty's day celebration a little early since I am traveling this week for work. I made the usual corned beef and cabbage and Irish Soda bread from my mother-in-law.  I feel really lucky with my in-laws, I absolutely adore them and love spending time with them.  I decorated the dinner table in our St. Patty's day finest and we celebrated like the best of them. Of course, the celebration would not be complete without some cupcakes and toppers using my PSA Essentials Peel & Stick stamps (Mixed Holiday).

What a really fun weekend! 

Stamped Easter Basket Tag

Recently, Melanie with It Happens in a Blink joined our PSA Essentials design team. We are so thrilled to have her!  This crafty momma manages to find time to make projects with her triplet boys (seriously -- how does she find the time?!)  Today she shared how made stamped Easter Basket Tags. Using her stamps by PSA Essentials, this project is a cute no-brainer.

For the full tutorial, head on over to Melanie's blog and visit the post. This one is super easy and a fun addition to Easter baskets or just a great way to add a simple tag to your gift giving. 

Easter Greeting Cards

With my love of celebrating holidays and my passion for stationery, I am one of those that stocks up cards for just about every occasion.  Easter is no exception. Papyrus' line sold at Target really caught my eye this season and I loaded up. Their cards are so, so beautiful! Small works of paper art, I think they really are something special to send in the mail.

I paired some of my favorite Papyrus Easter greetings with our PSA Essentials stamps and switchable middles.  After all, if you are going to send a super cute card, why not make your envelope super cute, too?

Our PSA Topiary Peel & Stick pack has the most adorable easter egg and sentiment, "Happy Easter." We use them all the time during this season.  From the Cupcake Peel & Stick pack, there's a cute stamp with teacups which also reminds me of spring.  Endless options with all of our adorable switchables. Check out these beautiful cards and envelopes!

Which is your favorite stamp and what's your favorite card? Be sure to check out all of Papyrus' Easter Cards at a Papyrus store near you or at Target.  Love them!  Also be sure to shop PSA Essentials self-inking address stamps and our switchable middles hop here.  Hop on those Easter greetings!
