Carrot Barrettes For the Nieces

OK, let's just ignore the fact I've been away for almost a month!  Not what I had planned.  I think my absence started when I needed to take a little break, just a week.  Unfortunately, when I was ready to come back, I came down with a terrible cold!  I didn't feel like doing anything.  The last obstacle happened when I began helping my mom and dad settle my great aunt's estate.  Lots of days spent sorting and getting ready for a tag sale.  Each day I came home exhausted!  Well, that came to an end this past Sunday.  A few days of catch-up around the house....and here I am!

I recently purchased these barrette cover dies from Papertrey Ink and before they arrived I knew what my first project would be!  I have FOUR nieces under the age of 6 (with a 5th one due next month!)... so this die will get a workout!  I think they turned out adorable!

I wanted a cute way to send them, of course!  So, I used the library card stamp and stamped each of their names.

So, I still need to make Easter cards for my friends... and I will share the treat bags I made for the kiddies.  Guess you'll be seeing me real soon!
