Today, we have three posts planned for you. And they all involve projects that revolve around handmade gifts and paper crafts. We hope you're enjoying our design team-up, showing what fun you can have mixing up Bella Blvd products and Cricut products.
"Sweet" treat jar, by Beth Gerlach. Beth used her Cricut Expression machine, along with the Birthday Bash cartridge to create this fun and yummy treat jar. The die cut candies look so cute on the front of the jar, and I like how she topped off the lid with a Bella's Blooms-A-Bella flower.
"Be Happy" memo pad holder, by Gail Hoecker. Gail used the Daisy Quilling kit, along with her Cuttlebug machine for this adorable memo pad holder. I love the colors of the Estate Sale collection.
How gorgeous are these flowers? Gail inked the edges of all the petals of her flowers, which adds such a nice touch.
Bookmark set, by Wendy Wagner. Wendy used the Embossing Plus Monogram Seals, along with her Cuttlebug machine to create this set of cute bookmarks. She used patterns papers from Bella's Sophisticates collection.

I love all the layers to her flowers. And the layered button centers are so adorable!
"Enjoy" bookmark, by Gail Hoecker. Gail used the Embossing Plus Vintage Collage, along with her Cuttlebug machine, to make this fun collaged bookmark. She choose pattern papers from Bella's All Inclusive collection, along with letter stickers from Bella's Sophisticates collection.
Stop back by this afternoon for a few more handmade gift ideas. And later this evening, we have a fun idea that your kids will love, along with a BIG giveaway. You won't want to miss it.
