Sharing a little kindness

Happy World Kindness Day!

 

I've been really enjoying the Share Handmade Kindness Challenges

on Jennifer McGuire's blog this month and decided to play along with

this week's Share Handmade Kindness Challenge Week 2: Community.

 

I partnered with Sage and we decided to make some cookies and a card

for the staff at our town library.

She made the cookies & I made the card.

 

 

I decided to go with a "book theme", so I cut out five strips of cardstock

and stamped along the bottom and top of each one with one of the road stamps

from PTI's City Scene and heat embossed them in gold.

 

For the spines of the books, I stamped them with words found in PTI's

Phrase Play 1 & 2 stamp set --- they are words to describe what we appreciate

about the library and the people that work there.

 

 

I stamped the sentiment (from SSS's Big Scripty Sentiments) in versamark

and heat embossed it in gold on the card base, after running it through

my diecutting machine with the PTI Book Print impression plate.

 

For my colours, I was inspired by this month's Pinterest Inspired Challenge:

 

 

And I'm also liking this up to Virginia's View Challenge #20: All About Textures.

 

Thanks for looking!
