A Busy Spring

It has been a crazy busy spring for my family & I! I am sorry I haven't kept up with posting here. I've been trying to keep afloat with family, teaching two grades, graduate school, and many other things.

I have been creating things though and wanted to share some samples. More of my recent work were gifts for people or cards for the special ones in my life. I am looking forward to the summer months when I can learn some new techniques, try out new ideas, and create lots of new goodies! Check back again soon as I hope to have new cards and ideas posted here and for sale very, very soon!

a simple thank you card I made for a volunteer at our school

I found a photo of a similar card and tried to figure it out for my hubby's Fathers' Day card.

I made gift bags for all my kids- these were the tags I made using my new-t0-me Big Shot die cutter! :)

I loved the greens & browns in this paper and found a pretty ink to coordinate! I am getting quite a collection of scripture stamps now too. This will be going in the store this week. :)

Not a great photo, but this card was for my son who graduated from GTCC this spring!

I made a similar set as a custom order for a teacher, and liked how they looked so I made these for my Kinderkids for their graduation day.

These were for my 1st Graders on "Poofing Day." (Poofing Day is a silly thing I made up early on in the school year. I told them on the last day, I would "poof" them out of my room and onto 2nd grade.)

Loved this retro-looking paper. It made me think of my sister & daughter a little. Made up this set of coordinating note cards.

Happy Spring!

Happy Spring to everyone! I have been keeping plenty busy with card-making, teaching, family, and grad school. I recently purchased a custom made stamp from a fellow etsian and was thrilled with the stamp when it came! My new stamp will appear on the backs of all my cards now to help me put my business name and site out there.



I have been busy making card sets for our church's ladies' retreat and for a church's silent auction back in Bethalto, IL, where I went to high school. Now I am working on a custom order and making new spring sets. I hope to have plenty of new things in time for spring & summer in my store soon.



I hope wherever you are, spring brings you plenty of warm, sunny days, birds singing cheerily, and flowers to bring you beauty! Have a blessed and wonderful spring!

Bright Mums

These I made for my Momma (along with a little surprise for her I can't post here) :). I have another set for sale that I will personalize upon order for the buyer. So pretty... I want a set for me too.

monogrammed note cards

I've been wanting to work on some card sets for a month now, but between family, teaching, tutoring, and grad school there's been no time. In bits and pieces I am working on several sets of monogrammed note cards learning to grab a few minutes to do even small parts when I can. I am making gifts for some people and will use their gift set as the "model" for my photos. You can hop over to my store to see and purchase a set. There will be more photos of the other sets soon I hope. For tonight, here is one finished set.

You can help Haiti

You can help Haiti by giving to so many organizations. Please consider giving. Even a small amount will help. I have posted a link on the right to a ministry that means a lot to our family- Heartline Ministries, but there are so many organizations that are helping.

black and white and a little daisy love

It's been a crazy busy night trying to juggle Mom's taxi, cooking dinner, card projects, school work, and preparing for my tutoring job. :) Whew! I'm tired, but I finished some pretty cards tonight and have posted them for sale here. I love when I accomplish something- even if it's small.

Little Lovebugs

I made these adorable little guys into mini note cards hoping they'd be perfect for a child's Valentine's cards, a teacher to give to his/her class, for a grandparent who wants to send notes to their grandchildren or even for a college student to give to roommates and friends. These note cards are for sale at my etsy store and are priced at $3.50 for a set of 10. I can make custom orders for any size package if you need a larger set for a class, church group, or other function as well. Just email me at bekaboocreations@yahoo.com if you'd like me to create a set for you!


I'm also trying another new project and hope to have them finished this week and pictures posted. I love learning new things, and I'm trying to find new projects to teach myself. :)
