Walk In The Park Ensemble--Part 5 of 5

Finally, here's your last installment of this ensemble.  Don't forget that you can click on each photo to see a larger image.

  CASE of Sara Shewell found HERE. CASE of myself found HERE. Came up with this one all on my own!

Please let me know if you have any questions about any of the items I made for this Ensemble.  Have a joyous first day of June!!  Erin

PS...Did you know the Last Chance List came out today??  If I've got my act together, I'll be sure to post by the end of the day!!

Walk In The Park Ensemble--Part 4

Wow!  This month has been soooo busy!  I am sooo sorry for the complete lack of posting this month!  So, let's get on with the show:

The coaster caddy!!  I originally found this idea on Becky Robert's Inkin' Idaho Blog HERE and made one for myself using the Summer Picnic DSP HERE. (I've got lots of photos & how to instructions on the Summer Picnic post)

 

I think all I have left to show you from this grouping is the card tin & all the cards.  I'm going to set up the post to show tomorrow, so happy looking!  Erin

Walk In The Park Ensemble--Part 3

Besides the Stampin' Up! Idea Book & Catalog & Gift Certificate, here are the other two goodies that were in the file box:

 

Standard Compositional Notebook covered in the Walk In the Park DSP from the Occasions Mini & Baja Breeze Ribbon to "tie" it all together!

 

I loved this clipboard & was tempted not to include it in the auction basket!!  But, I knew someone else would love it too, so I was willing to part with it...sniff-sniff!

You've just got to have chocolate on your desk, so I slapped some rub-ons on this cute little jar & crammed a bag of Spring Colored M&Ms into it!  YUM!!  (and it's one less bag of M&Ms that are calling out my name to be eaten!!)

 

Have a great day!! Erin

Walk in the Park Ensemble

  

I made this basket o' goodies for a silent auction for my husband's squandron (aka..office, for you non-military types) fundraiser.  I'm not sure what it went for, but I'm hoping that it brought in some good money for them!  Once again, I wish I had made duplicates of everthing for me...Check out this post to see what I made for the auction last year! (If you want to see everything in detail for last year's basket, just keep clicking forward through about 4 or 5 posts.)  My theme this year was Extreme Desk Makeover, so most of the items are for sprucing up your desk/work space using the Walk in the Park Designer Series Paper from the Occasions Mini Catalog...available until the end of June.

Here's the top view so you can see a little bit more what was in the basket. 

 

I'll be sharing more pictures of the actual items through out the week!  Enjoy...Erin

PS...Sorry for not posting for the past 2 weeks.  We had guests for the last week of April to help celebrate my son's 6th birthday & then I went out of town last week to help my mom who just had surgery.
