Hi everyone! Grab your coffee because I have a TON to share today, and all of it worthy of a good read!
Thank you to all of your for the kinds words and emails about my sharing of my mother’s story. As I said it was so difficult to do, but it has proven to be a positive thing to have shared with others. Quite honestly it was a little rough for my mother, and emotionally set her back a bit, reliving some of what has gone on. Many of you have been able to relate, have been there, or know someone else who has been there or is there. So thank you for allowing me to open up and hopefully help someone else.
Catherine Doucette and I are working on a special stamp set for victims of abuse! I’ll keep you posted! We want some proceeds to go towards the special cause 😀 Details will follow.
Now I need to get back to business!
Time for the May Release at My Time Made Easy ™ LLC
I’ve been crazy busy trying to balance my family and work (as you can imagine-and NOTHING went well this month! LOL! Go figure). I think I did a good job somehow pulling it all together, so I hope you all enjoy what I have in store the next 2 weeks!! I was going to get it done if it killed me 😀
Today is day #1 of our release peeks! Our actual release is May 1st.
I am sad to say that Mona Pendleton will be leaving our team after this month. Be sure to wish her well in her endeavors. I wish her the best! She has a full plate, and is focusing her talents elsewhere. While we were miss her, and her very talented hubby Scott (who has helped me on many occasions), I am very happy to say that Silke Ledlow will be joining our amazingly talented line up of fabulous designers! Be sure you check her out! She will begin next month!
Now time for some of our FIRST peeks of what is to come!
As you know the end of the school year is approaching, and it is just about that time to start thinking TEACHER gifts! I hope this release inspires you to get REALLY creative in your end of the year gifts this time! (and even if you don’t have children, you just might still fall in love-and we have some other REALLY cool stuff, so don’t miss it!)
All of us will be sharing samples using the Pretty Packaging © template Boxed Lunch! as well as our coordinating Pretty Impressions © stamp sets: Lunch Box Love Notes © and Additions set
First up with some YUM-azing card creations is Geny Cassady, and Dawn Easton!!! They are both going to WOW! you, I swear it.
Now making her first debut project for the MTME team is Lesa Rapp!
Lesa saw this adorable lunch box and pictured it without the handles as a vintage box to keep notecards in. Pink just speaks softness and beauty. She hand crocheted the matching flowers to go on this one. It would be a perfect gift for someone special. A couple pieces of chocolate added in would be the perfect addition.
Also be sure to check out Katie!! She has another FAB project using the Boxed Lunch © template 😀
Now for my project!
Let your imagination soar
How is this for a coordinating gift set?
It was all so quick and easy. Let me tell you about all the details for this part of the release!
About Boxed Lunch –
Completed Project Size 5 3/4 Inches Wide4 3/4 Inches Tall
1 1/2 Inches Deep
This template was designed to coordinate with the Lunch Box Love Notes © and Lunch Box Love Notes Additions © Pretty Impressions © stamps (available in both acrylic and digital download). This template also coordinates with a Lunch Box Love Note © Pretty Pieces Cut Files © too! (more on that further down)
This template will really take you back in time, and is sure to put a smile on someones face!
Do you remember those adorable metal lunch boxes we all carried as children? They are absolutely timeless! Well now we have a 3 D version that we can make for all our children, significant other, teachers, boss, co-workers, friends or family!
Now look at the handle details!
ALL CARDSTOCK!!
So no need to find, or purchase ANY expensive metal embellishments! This template has every piece you need to create this Oldie but Goodie Lunch Box in ONE great template! EASY PEASY (as are all our templates :D) Each one COMPLETE with step by step photo instructions.
This is the perfect template to give all sorts of gift in. You can put some notes in there, maybe some school essentials for student or teacher, homemade baked goods (especially for school fundraisers), put in gift cards, candy, stationary, and is even perfect for the office! Gift it to your boss or co-workers (any time of year!) Also perfect for a new grad, off to college, end of year teacher gifts, teacher appreciation, first or last day of school…..make it into some luggage instead! That adds even MORE possibilities.
Whatever you box up in this lunch box, it is a guaranteed you will also be boxing up the feeling of them being special!
Today my Boxed Lunch contains a note pad, stamped using the note paper and sentiment from Lunch Box Love Notes ©
Now cute is the notepad? This in itself is a simple, yet practical gift! You can easily stamp each page while watching TV! No brain power needed.
I also included some JUMBO Smarties candy, a jumbo Sour Lollipop (all candy faves from when I was a lil’ girl), a mini stapler, and staple puller, travel keychain notepad, and a fun fold out ruler.
This is for my daughter Alexa who loves sweet tarts and loves to write and draw!
There are MANY things this can be filled with, as you will see with all our samples over the next week or so!!
Now for my project details today…….I printed my base from the Pretty Printables © Digital Paper- Just Perfect For my cover I used the Lunch Box Covers © for a quick & easy coordinating design!
This is a collection of 8 printable lunch box patterns that are ready to PRINT N’ GO! They are based on the SAME images you find in our amazing Lunch Box Love Notes © and Additions set! Now making a complete coordinating gift set couldn’t be easier! Everything can match.
I used the rainbow printable image to create my decorative panel on my lunch box. Adding the rainbow was my 5 yo daughter Amber’s idea 😀 So I HAD to do it so I could make HER love notes to tuck in her school bag 😀 (I need to make her one too!)
But think how fun it could be if you just let your kids decorate thier OWN!!!!!!!!!!!!
I was able to utilize my photo editing software to digitally COLOR it in for me too!
I replicated it 3 X’s.
1- for my lunch box panel
2- for the 3D rainbow/cloud
3-for the cloud only.
Adding glitter was not only easy but the perfect, simple touch!
I used the sentiment from the Lunch Box Love Notes© Additions stamp set to stamp my image exactly where I wanted it on the panel.
Perfectly easy peasy!
Now another FUN addition to the collection is a Pretty Pieces © Cut File called Lunch Box Love Note!
This is a cut file for $1.50
Available in PDF, SVG, WPC, DXF, GSD. About Lunch Box Love Note Completed Size when folded is 4 Inches W 3 Inches H This is the perfect folded note card, with easy tuck in tab! No envelope needed!
Perfect for creating some quick “love notes”.
Here the sentiment is stamped ON the tuck in tab, but you can add it to the sentiments to the inside too!
This was designed to work perfectly with the Lunch Box Love Notes © & Additions © Pretty Impressions © Stamp Set (available in acrylic & digital), and work perfectly with the Boxed Lunch © Pretty Packaging © Template!
But it is totally amazing on its own too!
Now creating simple note cards (or gift card holders!) has never been more fun and easy.
Now yet another AMAZING additon to our Pretty Pieces © Cut File is the additon of a set of 4 shaped files called All Tied Up ©.
Available in SVG, GSD, DXF, and WPC
(in my project the lunch box is stamped on the square version)
These were designed by Kristin Bueter. She did a FAB job on them 😀
We have a complete unique collection of 4 shapes: Circle, Oval, Square and Rectangle. All a must have.
This is the perfect collection of 6 shaped frames/tags/ribbon sliders! Each shape having a single and dual ribbon slider feature, in plain as well as scalloped.
You will also receive the frame, and mat layer for these as well! All in one perfect package!
Designed to be the perfect “cut n’ go” tag shapes, you will want to use these over and over again. Perfect for cards, scrapbook pages, gifts and of course our Pretty Packaging © Templates! You can never have too many options.
These fit many of our Pretty Impressions © stamp sets, so check them out!

Now you MUST be dying to hear MORE about the stamps right? I’m dying to share it all with you.
I put a lot of thought into this set :D, and had my own children in mind. There was a HUGE lack of anything like this on the market, in my opinion.
Lunch Box Love Notes © Package Set of 25 images $20
Also available in digital download: Set of 37 images for $18 (combination of the Lunch Box Love Notes © & Additions)
Be sure you check out the Lunch Box Love Notes Additions © that coordinate with this set!
There are more add on’s and sentiments to match!
This stamp set has a template that coordinates with it called: Boxed Lunch ©
Do you remember those adorable metal lunch boxes we all carried as children? They are absolutely timeless! Well now I have designed a set with those amazing lunch boxes, with interchangeable patterns and interchangeable sentiments to match! There are even little food additions that fit this theme. You will certainly fall in love with all the punny sentiments.
This set is perfect for sending little notes in their “lunch box”, or for making fun cards, gifts and tags for friends, family, teachers, co-workers, and anyone in between! You now have so many possibilities for sending little love notes to those we care about.
As a child, my mom would always stick a little note in my lunch box, wishing me a good day. In turn I have done the same for my own children and husband. I’ve always longed for such a set that make sending these types of notes or gifts more fun and easier than ever. This set will be one that you pull out over and over again.
Sentiments include:
I’m so proud of you!
A special treat for you to eat
Packed with Love
Sending you hugs and kisses
XOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXO
just PEAR-FECT !
I love you bunches!
Hope your day is (to be used in coordination with some of the sentiments)
Just a note to say….. (to be alone or used in coordination with some of the sentiments:)
you are so special!

A great loss with Mona…you managed to ‘snag’ her at just the right time as an up and coming FAB designer..best wishes go out to her!
What a sweet set! Very creative : )
This is super cute! This will make awesome teacher gifts!
My son loves lunchbox notes. I quit sending then for a while and he told me about it. This set with more masculine colors would be so pear-fect for him.
Ah, super cute! Love the new template!!!
This is the one of the cutest things I have ever seen! I love it when the handle is built into the template!! I have so many ideas popping in my head I must go write them down. I can’t wait to what else there is with the rainbow. Must have it!!!!!!
Love all your templates! This will make for a great year-end gift. Thanks!!!!!! Best wishes to you and your familly. Your Mom is in my prayers.
Hi Lauren,
So so cute! I can hardly wait!
I love it! Very creative
Greetings from germany
what a cute set! love it. i usually like to give teachers something practical and maybe organizational. but whatever it is that i give them, i like to wrap it all up in cellophane and tie with a pretty ribbon.
thanks for offering a giveaway.
and i’m so sorry to hear about your mom. please know that she and your family are in our thoughts.
I am going to miss playing with all the wonderful MTME products before they are actually released & being a part of the excitement at new release time!
Cute set – can’t wait to see more!
Love the new template…. and the rainbows are awesome.
thanks for all you do in the midst of such chaos at home. my neices love the letterbox i made them earlier this year, now i have something that will match that, thank goodness lol
What a fun set. I hope Alexa loves it. I don’t have kids so no teacher gifts to prepare here and they aren’t a big thing in the UK. When I used to teach you may get a card or some chocolates from the best students but it was the exception rather than the rule.
ahhh Lauren, this is Stunning. Can’t wait to have this new template……
Big Hugs

I can hardly wait to see all of the cute images in the Lunch Box Love Notes set. If the little lined note image and sentiment are any indication, I’m going to love them. Best of luck with this release and blessings to your Mom and family.
Lauren this is so wonderful – I have purchased the tin version sooooo many times to alter and give as little gift boxes – I can’t wait to make my own!
Still praying for your family during this stressful time – may peace and healing be with you.
wow!!! I love it!!!
how awesome is this?!?!?!?!?!
i don’t have any idea what i will be giving as year end gifts, this is my daughter’s first year in school, but this is a great idea!! thank you!
Ooh I love this lunch box….and can think of lots of things I want to do with it straightaway!! Shame my son’s teacher is a man…. I’ll just have to go create a more grungy one!!
Adorable project – makes me wish my girls were still in in school to give Teacher gifts! Will have to get thinking of other ways to use the template. Can’t wait to see what else is on the way!!!
This would be perfect for first day of school gifts, end of the year teacher gifts, party favors, even for a teenager as he/she heads off to college. Wow, the possibilities are endless.
Wow, I had never thought of making a lunch box like that. I would make gifts for my nieces and nephews with their favorite stickers and stuff in them.
OMG! That is too cute! Love the colors even…kinda gives it that “retro” look. LOVE IT!
Absolutely Brilliant – Well done to you Lauren – you just keep on amazing me….
xxx
Wow. Those are so sweeeeeeeeeetttttttt. I can’t wait to see the rest.
Thanks for such great packaging ideas I always get compliments on your templates……Everyone thinks I am brilliant and they dont know I just know where to shop for templates
This is gorgeous!!!! Absolutely stunning! My girls don’t start school until next year, but some of their friends start in September and I think I shall make some of these to give them as good luck gifts. I’m tempted by the digi paper and stamps too, but have never tried either. Any tips? Can’t wait to see what else you have for us this week – I know it will be fabulous because everything you do always is!
Wow what a fabulous fun project. I’m so happy to have found your site, I so look forward to the new projects, and I still need to view all the past posting. Thanks
This is the most adorable lunch box and to think it is all paper, amazing! I love it with or without the handle. I will miss Mona and her creative talents. Can’t wait to see what else is coming this week. Your creative talents are beyond belief, thanks for sharing.
Lauren you are truly amazing. I see you have picked up some great things from your Mother. This lunchbox set is to die for, and I have 4 children, so it will be perfect. My Mother also did notes in the lunchbox, and I remember how good it felt as a child. Thanks for making this so easy and fun. Can’t wait to get my hands on these.
I am in love with that lunchbox! That is the cutest thing ever!
Stunning, I can make these for Damians special ed teachers and his classroom teacher they would just love these. Susan
Wow, boy does that bring back memories! Can’t wait to play with this new template.
Karen
How C-O-O-L This would be a great gift for the first day of school–kids starting kindergarten or new teachers to a school.
Omg, Lauren,
You come up with the cutest things girl!!
I wish I had your imagination!!!
OMG this is TOO stinkin’ cute!! I love everything!!!
Wow that is so cute, looking forward to seeing what you have in store for us tomorrow.
Wow, fab new design.
I LOVE this!! I love all things vintage, vintage feeling, and unique!! Thanks you so much for sharing!!
This is awesome! Your creativity is limitless…LoVe It!!!
This is absolutely adorable!!!
This template is adorable and the stamp sets that coordinate, how clever!
Love the lunch box. Can’t wait to see the entire stamp set. My oldest is starting Kindergarten in the Fall so many teacher gifts are in my future. I can see this as a great gift for friends with craft supplies inside, also. This was my first year having my daughter in preschool, have enjoyed making teachers gifts so far. So far I have made them Tin lunchboxes full of cards, pedicure sets with box hanging off the nail polish remover, and picnic baskets with spring scene inside. Thanks for the great sneak peeks keep it coming. Kim
Lauren, this is adorable! I make “napkin notes” everyday to put in my son’s lunch…words of encouragement or just little xoxox’s. He loves it and looks forward to them every single day. Imagine his surprise seeing cute little lunch box greeting cards!! I love it!!!
How sweet is this months goodies….soooooooooo sweet!
Hi Lauren,
I faithfully check out your blog for inspiration – sometimes it comes in the form of projects – sometimes in the words you write.
I would be thrilled to pieces to win a prize!
Thanks for always sharing a piece of your world with us!
As always. beautiful.
I love your new template and the gift idea. I like to give a little box filled with the teacher survival kit at the begining of the year and am always looking for something to put them in. Can’t wait for more sneak peeks. The stamp set is toooooo cute.
These are so cute. I could be busy making these for days as my husband and I volunteer at a local childrens home here and all the kids would want one. They would be great to give our special needs kids teacher’s gifts as we are always tryng to think up things to do for them.
These children are from abused and often abandoned background. There are over 60 ckildren at the shelter so you can image how busy I wll be.
God has blessed us so much by being here and we know His hand is upon these children.
God Bless you and let your Mom know I will continue to pray for her.
Big Hugs!!
I so remember these lunch boxes as if it was yesterday. I had one from the Nancy Drew series. You really nailed it – it looks fabulous.
Love this set, and especially the sentiments!!! Awesome stuff…
So cute!!! Thanks for the chance to win!
This is so cute! I love the template, the stamps, well everything. Wonderful job designing these!
What a beautiful template. I will definitely be making school year gifts for all of the teachers. Prayers to you and your family.
Lauren, I think you’ve outdone yourself! These coordinating sets and templates are absolutely adorable and perfect for so many different projects. Great designs!
Lauren I love this template and the stamp sets I can see using this set to send treats to my grandchildren, they would be thrilled. I especially like the fact that all of the “hardware” is part of the template package. Having the whole pkg. cuts down on the cost to make these items and the frustration of trying to find the right size of hardware. TFS Ann Lind
This set is fabulous. I just love that lunch box template — and the love notes are so special. I can see so many possibilities with these files. Keep up the great work!
You continually blow me away! With all the things going on in your life – you still have the where-with-all to come up with so much more! Thanks for sharing your talents!
Oh I am loving the matching stamp and lunch box! Brilliant idea! I’d love to see more matching gift set ideas. I am always making little gifts like this and and stumped as to what else to make with it. The matching note pad, lunch box and card are perfection!
This is such a wonderful project with sooo much possibilities. I just loooove it! Just love all of your templates and realeases. Can’t wait to see more sneaky peeks. Thanks for sharing.
Love everything! So very creative! :o)
Oh this is Fabulous!!! Love this and the possibilites are endless. Thanks for sharing, can’t wait for more sneak peeks.
Lauren this is amazing!!
Can’t wait to make my kids teachers boxes and put
some well earned goodies in them.
Corina
How cute! Love the idea I am a retired teacher and would love a gift like the lunch box.
Your projects looks great. What a great gift set this is. Thanks so much for the chance to win.
I love this template. Makes me thing of the My Little Pony and Care Bears lunchboxes I used to have. Thanks for the chance to win.
I can see a lot of possibilities with this whole coordinated set. Amazing creativity Lauren!
Oh MY GOSH! That lunch box is so stinkin’ cute! It takes me back to the days of Rainbow Bright and the Care bears. LOL I LOVE IT! I can’t wait to see what else you have come out with this month. Great job!
Everything is so sweet!
hugs,
Emma:)
Awesome!! I love packing little notes in lunchboxes! (miss it now that my daughter often eats the yucky cafeteria food instead, LOL)… Great set, and the rainbow is darling, so cheery and happy! 😀
This set is so perfectly coordinated. The lunch box is so cute!
Oh how I wish I had the capability to CREATE the way you do! You make the most beautiful things and I appreciate all the hard work that certainly goes into it. Another hit, for sure!!
Oh my word! That lunch box is simply amazing! And the matching set, I totally need them both! These are totally fabulous! I simply love how you have it all coordinating and the shape cut files! You said it before, and I have to agree…I Need a cutting system to use this all on! I can’t wait to see what else is to come! I can’t wait!
I’ve never put notes in my kid’s lunch because they always got it at school, but in an effort to eat better, I’ve recently started packing their lunches and until I win this prize I’ll be sticking handwritten notes in their lunchbags! Awesome projects, too, btw! LOVE your creativity!
Isn’t that the cutest??? Adorable! 🙂
Love this!
This is tooooooooo clever!!!! I would LOVE to have your brain!
Lauren, This is too cute! I usually give teachers at the end of the year a boxed set of 12 or so of mixed hand-stamped cards. Usually all occasion so they can use them for anything! I’ve heard such great things about the cards that I’ve continued to give this gift over any other. Because really, how many mugs and candles can a teacher have??? So this would be the cutest addition to my gift!! I could add a little something cute inside the lunchbox for the teachers as a little treat!
My fav thing to gift right now is baked goods. I love feeding people and seeing how they love the goodies makes me very happy!
As always, you amaze and inspire! I love putting love notes in my five year old daughter’s lunch box! Thanks.
Love these sets….. Thanks for the chance to win as due to financial difficulties I can’t make any purchases for a while. I will be adding these to my wish list.
I think that this is my fave set of yours so far!!! I adore the lunch box template!! The designers made me drool w/ their fun ideas. LOVE THIS!!! (being a mom and teacher, even more so!!) :0P
OMGoodness!! This is just too adorable! I absolutely must have this set!! Definitely my new fav!!
Hi Lauren! Another great release on the way! I thought I’d share some of my recent cards with your stamps…

Such adorable projects. I am really loving everything I’ve seen. My children are older so we don;t have teacher gifts to worry about anymore but I volunteer for the Girl Scouts in our area and I always make the recognition gifts for the recognition event.

What a fabulous set! I don’t have children, but I do have young great nephews and neices who would go crazy for this set. There are a couple of birthdays coming up in June, and I know just what I am going to make. Thanks everyone for your fabulously creative minds.

The Boxed Lunch and Lunch Box… oh all of it whatever it is called is why too much fun!!! How do you continue to come up with such awesome “must have” ideas?!? I volunteer in a Kindergarten class – even though my kids graduated from school in 2000 – I can see so many fun ways to use the whole set. Plus I have grandsons who will be starting school next year. Thanks for coming up with this wonderfully useful set!
What a super cute set.
What a cute set, can’t wait to start working on the teacher’s gifts. Thanks for the opportunity to win.
Another absolutely adorable template and stamp set.
You are soooo talented!!!
Would LOVE to win , this SUPER FAB gift!!!

Lauren, this is brilliant! I think this is your best one yet!
Very cute project. You’re always coming up brilliant ideas.
Love this one. It reminds me of the lunch boxes I used to carry as a kid. Cannot wait to see more!
Very cute stuff, loving the lunchboxes!!
This is great! I LOVE the lunch box!
Absolutely adorable, who wouldn’t want to receive this gift!
Very cute. Yes, I totally had one of those lunch boxes. I think it had a denium look to it with an apple or something. Ha Ha. Those were the day. Hope I win. This would be a cute end of year gift for the kids.
Beautiful!!! I love your creations!!! So sweet.. so cute!!!
Hugs!!!
Oh this is TOO cute!!! I can’t wait to use that lunchbox template with some aluminum foil over it to make it a “metal” lunchbox!! I think it will make perfect teacher gifts when my son gets older (he’s only 1 now so no teachers yet), but also for the guy that always plows the driveway for me when hubby is away with some hot chocolate mix, mini marshmallows and a little gift card for our local coffee shop in that cute little notecard!! YAY!!!
Awesome!!! Loving the colors that you have used.Love the use of the buttons. Too cute!! Great idea for teachers.
Have a GREAT day:)
Love the template of the lunchbox. I’m a teacher and it would be perfect to make a set of teacher cards and wrap them up in this cute lunchbox to give to a fellow teacher.
Love the old fashioned lunch boxes. You’ve done it again!
what fun, cute projects. my 4 and 8 yr old daughters would love to help with this fun project:)
it is adorable…….
thanx
Super cute!
love working with paper and I know I will turely love making this project. Reminds me of how much I loved Valentine’s Day when I was a little girl in school. The wait was worth it!
Oh my gosh, I am giddy with excitement. Yes, giddy. This is absolutely marvelous, Lauren. I love, love, love what you have shown us so far. My kids would laugh at me for using the word giddy but that is how I feel:-)
I love your lunchbox project. I can think of a million ways to use this cute idea. Thanks for the opportunity to win this wonderful prize.
Blessings,

Gorgeous! Great set for kids and teachers!
This set as well as EVERY ONE of your sets is awsome—I have’nt got the scal 2 yet, Can’t hardly wait to get it though. Lauren, you are an amazing person.
These are ADORABLE!!! So excited! I love the idea of using it to make a suitcase as well. I could make it and send with my hubby when he goes out of town to work with goodies in it! WOWZER!
Wow how clever you are as ever! This is so versatile! Can’t wait to get my hands on it! x
Lauren,
This is absolutely adorable , my mind is on over load thinking of ways to use it.
I was actually just thinking of something I could do for my son’s teacher. Especially because this year he has an amazing teacher and I really wanted to do something nice for her. This set would be perfect to show her how much we appreciate everything she has done!
Is there nothing that you can’t do with paper & glue 🙂
LOVE IT!! I always put “love” notes in my children’s and hubby’s lunchboxes. What a great idea for a set. Sure would love to win 😉
This is super cute and absolutely fanstastic. This is going to make such a wonderful momento for my daughter (and also her friends) who are all starting Primary School here in Aus. A great momento for them to keep – a celebration of another milestone!
I can think of many uses for this Template and those adorable stamp sets – oooh! – the possabilities are endless.
Last year I made a “Morning Tea Box” for the Kinda Teacher, from you Purse-onality Purse/Clutch tutorial, complete with coffee sticks, cookies, notepad, pen, post-it notes and of course, a little chocolate. This Lunch Box Love Notes set is going to make another perfect Teacher’s gift and I can’t wait to fill it with personalised “hand stamped love”
The sentiments for the new sets are just perfect – so many uses! Can’ wait to ink ’em up!
This makes a wonderful gift ensemble–I don’t know how you keep coming up with such cool ideas! My granddaughter would love to receive something like this.
This is just too too cute! I can’t wait to get it!!
Oh my gosh! I need this set NOW! I am beginning projects for Teacher Appreciation Week (which is next week). I am extremely appreciative of the wonderful teachers my boys have. I want to make this week special – especially since this is my oldest son’s last year in elementary school…middle school next year – Yikes! Hurry and put it for sale… I will be buying the lunchbox for immediate crafting time – the stamps will probably be for end of the year gifts.
HURRY! 🙂
How do you keep out-doing yourself with cuter and cuter things to tempt us with? Love the lunch box, brings back happy memories!
I love this idea! My kids so appreciate receiving notes in their lunches. It keeps them motivated and reminds them that they are always loved. I also can’t wait for the lunchbox template. What a unique way to package a graduation gift or for a child’s first day of school. I’m thinking of packaging a gift card for my kids’ teachers as an end-of-the-year thank-you.
Oh Lauren, what a fantastic idea to come up with a template for a lunchbox!!! Love it!!! This would make a great year-end teacher gift, filled with “thank you” cards…. even for a male, if you change the colors a bit…LOL!
Thanks for a chance to win such awesome goodies!
Hugs, Irma
Right now the only thing I can say is you are amazing!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This is so cute. I love it.
Leticia
I have never seen anything so dam cute, your creations are stunning!!!
Wow, once again I am in awe!!I love the pink lunchbox, reminds me of my Miss America one from 1972 or so… My parents still have it!! You are amazing to do all you do and have a month just like you’ve had! Keep up the good work!!
thanks for sharing these projects with us. I love this idea.
thank you for the chance.

Looking forward to more goodies and ideas for these fabulous creations!

Alicia
SOOOOO cute! I love it. This would be a cute idea for my son’s teacher. I love giving teachers little gift sets I make with altered mini comp books and matching pen & paperclip bookmark. I also love giving them monogrammed notecards.
You are so amazingly creative!! I don’t know how you keep coming up with so many super cute ideas! I love them all.
How cute can you get! This reminds me of my Brady Bunch lunch box with Wacky Pack stickers in the inside.
I have to tell you, I made 2 of the baby carriages for a baby shower at work today, they were the talk of the shower! Everyone LOVED them!! Thanks so much for making great templates
I LOVE the rainbow digi!!! It is awesome. Thanks for the chance to win.
This set and template is awesome!!! My daughter is not into this stuff for school, since now she is in High School, but this will be perfect for my little nieces and nephews. I can print/cut them out and mail them to them and they get to put it all together. They LOVE crafts and this is gonna make me THE BEST AUNT EVER!!!
WhooooHooooooo 🙂
What a wonderful idea to share with all of us. The wheels in my head are spinning with ideas for gifts. Thanks so much!
omgosh! If I won this I would totally give it to my friend. She makes the most amazing lunchnotes everyday for her daughter since the first grade…five years now. She even has a lunch note blog. Oh I hope I win for her!
Absolutely precious, so great for little girl gifts. Thanks for the chance to win.
A sure way to bring a smile to anyone! Wonderful way to start someone’s day when you can send along a note… I must look into Nikki’s (see previous entry note) friend’s lunch note blog…do share her blog addy, please!!!
Lauren,
I can’t wait until this is available! I am seeing many stamped pads in my future. This is just adorable!
How adorable. I think you are absolutely right about this being something unique and missing from the market. I can’t wait to see all of the release items this month.
Lauren,
I just love all your templates. I have bought several and they are so easy to use. People are just amazed when they see it is just paper. Thanks for all the wonderful work you do.
Let’s do lunch some time 😉
Marla
I don’t have children but still can’t wait for the release, some of the love notes sentiments will go great in my hubby’s lunch.
I love making homemade gifts for teachers at the end of the year. I’ve made some already using the pamper yourself stampset! Love that set!
Super cute!! I’m a big fan of pink so I really liked today’s projects!
This is a super cute project. I have a day care and lots of nieces and nephews. So I could be really busy with this template.
This is a great idea! I can’t wait to make end of year teacher gifts with it!
Such cute projects. I think they would be awesome for First Day of School gifts as well. I have two nephews starting school this fall. I think they need a little something from me. It would also be so cute for a GC gift to a friend with a ‘let’s do lunch’.
Met you at Stampin’ Around NH…love your products and I just adore this lunchbox set!!!! Thank you for your inspirations and great products!
Lauren, you have really outdone yourself again on these adorable sets. I think they are perfect, and no, there isn’t anything out there like these. Great for teachers, bus drivers, all those people we appreciate so much and would love to give something nice to, and of course our children and grandchildren, neices, nephews, etc. Thanks so much for all you do.
Another great project and really neat ideas. Would love to win this month’s package. Thanks for a chance to win.
Lunch box love notes are the BEST!
OMG……..this has got to be the most amazing template…..adorable. You really created something extra special. I am computer illiterate so I hope the instructions are pretty easy to download.
On a side note……I loved those metal lunchboxes.
Thanks Lauren!!
I received notes in my lunch box from my mom when I was younger BUT never this pretty! My mom wasn’t a pink fan although she had 4 daughters. And with 2 sons as well, she didn’t have much time to write the notes for all of us muchless prepare our lunch. But somehow she managed and I love her for that. What memories of our childhood this little precious pink lunch box brings back!!!!
What a cute set that would put a smile on any child’s face when they open their lunch to find a surprise note from mom. That lunch box sure brings back memories.
Pink and rainbows? Count me in!
Pretty, adorable, awesone…what I can say for this fabulous idea!
Love this set!
Wow… This set definitely brought back that school day’s memory! This is just so “PEAR-FECT”. The whole set looks so versatile can be used for both sex and different ages, just by changing the colours.
I could see myself resizing the “boxed lunch” template and turning them into 3 stackable luggage set for a bon voyage gift packaging! Or by leaving out the handles and making them into 3 luxury stackable gift boxes! Thanks again Lauren for another must have set and an opportunity to win … Gr8 to have you back! Can’t wait to see what you have for us next 2weeks.
Fantastic template, stamps and project! I so remember carrying one of those lunch boxes. Oh my gosh, does that date me now? LOL I don’t care, this project to too stinkin cute!! I love it!
OOOOOh Lauren another very exciting release! You are just fabulous. Can’t wait to have a play with these FAB designs. Thank you for working so very hard and coming up with such amazing projects and can I just say that your finishings are out of this world. Thank you thank you thank you
Lauren, I just love your sneek peeks and can hardly wait to see the rest.
What a creative mind you were blessed with.
Loving the sneak peeks… These are adorable…
Always looking for different ideas and packaging for little gifts for friends as “pick me uppers” when they’ve faced unpleasant situations such as health issues. Love this idea because it can be used in multiple situations filling it with appropriate goodies!
Great stuff!!! Love all of the sentiments!
Oh my, oh my, that is sweet. The details are amazing!

Love the fun rainbow image and words.
It’s a good life!
Terri E.
Your imagination never ceases to amaze me!

This is such a wonderful creation for lots of occasions but especially now at the end of school and also a possibility for Bible School coming up!
Another amazing release!! Perfect for when my grandson starts school!!!
That lunch box set it soo cute!! Love it! As part of the gifts I am doing this year, I am making the file folder holders to hold a jr legal pad and matching pen. Need to figure out the rest! But those lunch box ideas might be a good one!
Wow, what a great mix of colors!
This so cute …….. this would be great for September for all new starters to school.
Thankyou for giving us all a chance to win this fab goodies.xx
Oh My this takes me back. I loved my metal Care Bear lunch box so much. I wish I still had it. I was so proud carrying that into the lunch room everyday. This set just put a smile on my face instantly. I love it! Great job! Best wishes to Mona and Welcome to Silke! Gorgeous Lauren! I love it!
THE LUNCH BOX IS SO ADORABLE. I’M THINKING OF ALL KINDS OF THINGS I COULD PUT IN IT.
I love this idea. I think it is my favorite by far. My daughter is only 4 1/2 months old but I can’t wait to get it and use it when I pack her lunch. I can use it in my husband’s lunches too as we are both teachers, it is a perfect stamp set. So cute! Thanks.
How ADORABLE! You just think of everything! 🙂 Sad to see Mona leaving, but I wish her the best! Silke is definitely in for a treat!
Hugs~
Lauren –
This is just awesome! I can see customizing this based on what each individual likes. Perhaps Spiderman, or Wonder Woman, Tinkerbell, cars – the possibilities are endless! What a wonderful idea.
Elaine Allen
OMGosh! Absolutely adorable!! Loving all the possibilities of these sets!!!
Duhhh…I didn’t notice the give away!! to busy snoop-in at sneak peaks..lol..Thanks Lauren
How adorable is that lunch box! I love the bright colors that were used. My kids aren’t in school yet, but it would be a super cute thing to give on the first day of school for a “good luck” gift! You are a genius!
Love the sweet lunchboxes as well as the stamps and paper. I homeschool but this would be great to make for each of my boys to put sweet notes to read from their mama or daddy. God bless!
you’ve done another fabulous job, lauren. Love this set.
100% cute! Love, love, love the idea of a lunchbox. Adorable for students and teacher gifts :>)

Farida

I can never pass up a little box idea…I love to get a theme going and fill a box such as this for birthdays…my favorite is the garden box. The possibilities are endless! Garden gloves, seed packets, seed stakes, garden books, etc. So fun!
It is amazing how you can get inside our heads and produce exactly what we are looking for each month. These sets are beautiful, colorful, girly, and wonderful. So FUN!
Lauren, you never cease to amaze me 🙂 I have 3 teacher gifts to make in the next two weeks so this is definitely in my future. Thanks for the chance to win 🙂
SOOOOO SUPER ADORABLE …. I HAVE ALLWAYS LEFT NOTES FOR MY CHILDREN AND THEY ARE GROWN NOW BUT THIS WOULD BE TOTALLY CUTE AS JUST A REMINDER OR WHEN THEY WERE YOUNGER AND SURE TO BRING A SMILE TO THERE FACES…. TOOOOO CUTE..
What an adorable idea – and a great teacher gift! Thanks so much!
This is sooo cute… Great little gift!
How adorable! perfect for beginning or end of school year gifts!
Just for kids? I’d leave this in my hubby’s lunch! LOL!!! Way too cute, Lauren! What a great idea!
Super cute template and designs!
ohhh, so cute! Love these 🙂 So many fun possibilities!!
The stamp set is perfect for kid notes! I love this idea. I think the stamps would be a great teacher gift too, not just making things with it, but giving the set to teachers!
Oh I absolutely love this new template. I am a new collector of your templates and I just love them. thanks you so much for the chance to enter a giveaway. Praying for your mother too. She is lucky to have family by her side too through all of this.
Liam
HI!
As a teacher I would so love to get these as gifts. Such a thoughtful stamp set for us!
thanks for thinking of teachers!
Thanks so much for a chance to enter another give away. You blow us away each month with new templates.
Awesome! I love it. I have an idea for your next stamp set. I have been looking everywhere for a stamp that will give the postcard look and feel. I like to put my own images on the front and would like to have the address, stamp, and dividing line on the back for a message. How does that sound?
