The Bag Lady

Lavender is one of my favorite things.This Flax seed and lavender heat pack is perfect for soothing away the stress, aches and pains of a busy day. I was given one recently as a gift and loved it so I decided to try and make a few myself to give as gifts. It contains aprox 3lb of flax seed and essential lavender oil for a little added aroma therapy. Microwave for 2-3 minutes and apply to any part of your body, its long enough to go around you sholders, for an instant stress reducer! Outer cover is super soft, removable and washable.

An old Hallmark gift bag that was ripped gets new life as it is cut up and glued to heavy card, whole punched and grommited and morphed into a handy dandy note pad. Refilable and a great way to use up scrap paper.

Here are my cards and envelopes on display at "The Libertine". I upcycled an old cigar box to put them in. I knew it would come in handy for something!

Busy day figuring out my new blog and writing my first post. Still working on it but thats half the fun. Got crafty again today and made some envelopes fom QFC bags. They are a little rough but that's the point. I have some little panel cards that fit perfectly so I decided to package them with strips of beautiful hand made paper. I like them. see photos.
