Mother. Someone who we can turn to for advice and count on no matter what . One of the few people who has know you your entire life. The annual holiday set aside to observe this important person in our lives is right around the corner, May 10th to be exact. In order to make this the most memorable Mother's Day yet, for both you and your own mother, myself along with our incredibly talented design team have put together THE best collection of homemade gifts from the heart. All of which use our NEW Mother stamp set. A bit further down this post, keep your eye out for the FREE download that includes complete supply lists, instructions and full-color photographs of all eleven of the gifts mentioned by the team today.
Want to know the BEST part about today's presentation? I know the economy is hitting a lot of folks hard right now. Everyone's trying to make a dollar stretch as far as possible as the price of necessities seems to increase overnight. Isn't this the PERFECT opportunity to create gifts that are inexpensive to the pocketbook, but extravagant when it comes to meaning and gratitude?
Almost all of the gifts that the team and I have created
would cost less than $15 to put together!
Talk about a bargain! I can guarantee you that the recipient would prefer it over a new purse or a gift certificate to a spa ANY DAY! So, what are you waiting for! We are giving you plenty of notice! Start planning now for what you would like to create for Mom! Just you wait and see how good it feels to give a gift from the heart!
Before I get to the rest of the team's presentations, I wanted to share my personal project with you. When the idea for this gift came to me, I was SO excited to execute it! It was fun, easy and will surely serve as a very memorable mother's day gift for my mom.
To begin, you will need one of our clear top nugget tins, spring moss Bitty Dot Basics paper (cut to 3.25" x 5") and four photos that are cropped to measure about 2" x 1.25".
Adhere the photos to the spring moss paper. Apply Scor-tape around the outside edge of the clear window on the top of the tin lid.
Adhere the photo mat FACE DOWN on the top of the lid. The end result will be your photos peeking though the interior of the lid.
Next, you want to create a pretty top for the tin. I found that if you cut your cardstock down to EXACTLY 3-7/16" x 5-5/16" and round the four corners with a corner rounder punch it will fit perfectly. I love this sentiment from my new Mother stamp set,
"Everything I am today, I owe to you because your love showed me the way."
This is exactly how I feel about my mother, so I knew this would be the perfect phrase to use.
I adhered the completed piece to the lid of the tin with Scor-tape, just so I know it isn't going anywhere. It's definitely a good idea to do all of your embellishing and stamping for the topper before you adhere it in place. Just makes everything easier!
I wanted to put some pretty little feet onto the tin and decided to do so with beads. You could easily just glue four beads to the bottom of the tin, but I decided to take it up a notch and add a decorative silver bead as well. After some brainstorming as to the best way to attach them, it occurred to me that these headpins I normally use for making my own stick pins, were the PERFECT solution.
I turned the tin over and pierced one hole in each of the four corners of the tin bottom. I used a paper piercer to do this. A few light taps with a hammer allowed it to go through the tin bottom easily.
After adding the beads to all four headpins, I simply inserted them through each of the holes I just pierced, folding the end of the headpin down so that it was flat against the tin bottom. I used strong tape to hold down these ends.
The finished bottom looks like this. It is amazing how a small, quick & easy addition like these beaded legs really dress up an ordinary tin!
In case you were wondering what my vision was at this point, I wanted to create a jewelry box. To continue, every jewelry box needs dividers. I designed some super easy-to-use dividers for our nugget tins for Christmas a few months ago.
You can go HERE to see the original post and complete directions on how to assemble the dividers.
Or, you can just go directly HERE to download the FREE template!
I began by printing the template onto a piece of Stamper's Select White cardstock. I then used Heat-n-Bond iron-on adhesive to attach some pretty cotton fabric to the WRONG SIDE of the template. (I used a quilter's grade cotton and it worked beautifully. I'm not sure how other fabrics would work for this particular project, but I would love to hear from you if you try something else that works well too!) I was REALLY impressed with how well this technique worked and look forward to making more "fabric" paper in the future! Look out Amy Butler! *wink*
I then flipped the cardstock over to the RIGHT SIDE of the template, with all of the printing, and cut out the divider pieces using a craft knife and ruler. I scored on the appropriate score lines using my Scor-Pal, just as I would if there weren't any fabric on the opposite side. I folded them according to the original instructions and was thrilled with how well the fabric took the folds!
Here is the tin with the fabric cardstock dividers officially added. I just LOVE how it turned out! The addition of fabric really helps to make the tin feel more sophisticated and inviting. I'm sure you noticed the addition of the decorative metal piece on the front, too. It is just a little something from my stash, but I did find a source for similar bits and pieces that you can check out HERE. The piece was adhered in place with just a few small dabs of Gorilla Glue.
So this means the jewelry box was complete! Although… shouldn't there REALLY be a sentimental piece of jewelry to put inside…
This is a bracelet and accompanying poem that I wrote, inspired by other "color symbolism" bracelets I have seen around the web.
You can download a copy of the poem here…
Download Colors of Mother Poem
I picked out beads for the bracelet based on the colors listed in the poem. After a bit of bead play, I found an arrangement I liked.
The poem is designed to be trimmed and rolled into a scroll that will fit in the long compartment in inside the jewelry box. I love the idea of my mom using this small tin as her *everyday* jewelry box. Perhaps kept on her bedside table to put her jewelry in as she prepares for bed each night. It warms my heart to think about her reading the special message on the lid each night, and then seeing all of the special photos inside as she tucks her jewelry away. I think it will really be something that she cherishes for years to come.
I decided to create a card to go along with my jewelry box, and of course the two need to coordinate! I used the flourished "Mother" image in the lower corner of the card, flanked by another one of my favorite sentiments from the set.
"I never knew the depths of your love until I became a parent myself."
Don't you just LOVE that Mother image! I think it has such a pretty flourish to it! Because it it still maintains "clean" lines it can go from vintage elegance to understated simplicity with just a few changes in color and embellishment choices!
One of my favorite details is the leftover fabric cardstock strip I added to run down the center of the card. It was a great way to use up a leftover scrap and help to integrate the two projects together.
Here's shot of the completed ensemble.I'm just over the moon with how it all turned out and I hope you feel as though this is something you could easily recreate on your own after all these detailed instructions!
So now it's on to the rest of the team! To help you execute all of the design team's projects, I have compiled a thorough pdf that you can download and keep on hand as an easy reference. You can download it here…

Nichole, this project is simply amazing – the addition of the feet to the box, the beautiful fabric you’ve used, the gorgeous braclet you’ve made – WOW, I’m sure your mum will love it and treasure it forever!
I loved all the projects the team did. The setiments are the greatest. I think I will have to make a photograph frame of my family to give to my mother for that day.
while all the projects are great the jewellery box is lovely and something that I would like making. A real lovely keepsake.
Your jewelry box is adorable–love the jewel feet! This project is very inspiring. So many ideas spinning off from this and under $15. Thank you for the opportunity to win. You and your design team never fail to amaze!
I’m really impressed by some of your ideas, and I’m sure that I’ll be making one (or two) up for her birthday I particularly like the now and then and the coffee mug), but this year I’m hyper organized and I’m just adding the finishing touches to an album all about my mum’s mum who died just after christmas.
What mother wouldn’t love to receive this gift from the heart from her daughter? Beautiful!
Wow – this is gorgeous! Thanks for the awesome ideas!
Oh my goodness… It’s just so amazing! I am speechless!! What mother wouldn’t love that? (Or – what woman, actually, because I sure wouldn’t be mad if anyone gave me one of these!)
I’m definitely gonna make one of those… For my MIL maybe – because my mom is an angel and they don’t seem to have a very well organized postal system up there.
🙂
The jewelry box was stunning! Definitely my favorite! I can’t wait to try the cloth on paper idea…
In order to be closer to her only grandchild and help out my brother & his wife, Mom and Dad set up a trailer for Mom to live in during the week while she cares for my niece. Most of my mom’s “comforts of home” are left at her house. I KNOW she would love that little tin for her trailer and cherish it for years to come! I would love to win this set!
Oh, wow! That is just super gorgeous!
You, and the entire design team, did an incredible job honoring Moms everywhere! ♥
I was constantly grabbing for a tissue.
Nichole, your jewelry box is adorable. I love the “feet”…very clever!
Thank you for putting together the gift idea sheet. It’s wonderful!
Hugs!
that is so amazing !
This is gorgeous! I definitely want to try making this lovely jewelry box. Thanks for all your inspiration!
This tin is absolutely beautiful….this project is definitely one to keep. So many ideas…so little time. I can’t wait for the set to be released.
LOVE IT ALL! Wow, what a neat surprise this morning. I love your project, Nichole, and the others are great too. Looks like I have a couple of Mom’s Day & birthday gifts for this year:) The sentiments are what sold me….love them and so approriate.
This is absolutely stunning. All the ideas are wonderful as usual and the love just shines through in eachproject.
What a wonderful gift! Can’t wait for the release.
WOW!!! You never cease to amaze. You also help me to be the most thoughtful and caring person ever!
It’s a good life!
Terri E.
So beautiful and so meaningful!! Thanks for all the great ideas!
Your team has given so many amazing ideas for personalized gifts. I love them.
All the gifts are great! What a great set to show the love for our mother’s! I need to add this set to my list!!Come on the 15th!!
A jewerly box out of the nugget tin…..wow, wow!!!! Nichole you are amazing! I can’t wait to see the complete set.
Mother’s Day here in the UK is this Sunday – I think I just about have time to try out the fabulous jewelry box if I’m a good girl and work hard 😉 It’s a wonderfully inspiring gift!
sooo cleaver….totally goregous!
I have to say that I had tears in my eyes looking at all the beautiful projects! Mother’s Day should be once a month….at least! I can’t tell you what I liked best….from all the beautiful paper, ribbon and the stamp sentiments…..Thanks PTI for all of your amazing products! Now if you’ll excuse me……I need to call my mom!
All the projects are fabulous! The ideas that I would most likely use would be Lisa’s travel mug or Dawn’s sweet memories jar.
Wow! These are all so cool! My mom passed away 8 years ago, but I do have a dear friend who has been like a mom to me. I would definitely make her the travel mug.
Great job Nichole! I love the jewelry box. I really want to try that and the fabric paper. I love Lisa Johnson’t gift too and just the beauty of the handmade paper she made. Thanks for all the he;p and downloads to get us started! Blessings!
I am sad to say that my mother is no longer with me. She would have loved any of these projects and I would love making some of them for her since she gave me my love for handcrafted things. There are a lot of other people I could do the projects for in her honor.
What a beautiful Mother’s Day gift!
How beautiful! I usually give my moms jewelry for Mother’s Day so this box is just perfect for me.
Something else to add to my order! LOL~
Oh my – this month’s DT creations has probably been the sweetest and most inspiring ever. I’m not sure that I can make any of the gifts, but I definitely see some cards like yours, Nichole, and Betsy’s that I would love to do something sentimental with for my mother…with some fabric and some stitching….just seems to be sweeter and represent more.
I never knew the depth of your love until I became a parent myself – this really sums up how I feel! Even though I’m over here in US and my Mother is over in UK we still make sure we talk to each other EVERY day!
Your jewelry box is stunning. What a wonderful gift for any mother.
I think this is beautiful! Honestly gorgeous! I think I would love to try to make this gift for my mom – since I have a million beads – just ask hubby……lol!
you are amazing…. its beautiful!
I am in awe of all the projects you and your team created! I don’t even know which one I would choose to duplicate because they’re all so pretty! Can’t wait to see the set on the 15th!
Your jewelry box is amazing!! Thanks for sharing the template and poem as well!
I love the sentiment about not knowing the depth of love until you become a parent yourself – so true!
Everyone’s samples are beatiful! I really loved Debbie Olson’s quilt card and picture frome. Such a good idea to enlarge the quilt squares and print them.
Your tin is beautiful and I loved the saying on the front too. Can’t wait to see the rest of the set.
Thanks Cynthia
Wow, what a beautiful set!
Oh my goodness, what a GORGEOUS gift! The poem is just precious. I’m sure your mother will ADORE this gift!
Oh my – this is gorgeous! I love the idea and the way you dressed up that tin is just stunning! Thanks for having the DT put together such wonderful ideas! This is a beautiful stamp set – can’t wait to see it all!
WOW!!!…this is so awesome!!!….adding the feet to the tin sure “classed” it up, beautiful & elegant!!!…
Nichole, how DO you do it? I love all the projects but this little tin is just beautiful! I think I might just have to put a little different spin on it and make one for my niece who is going to college (and my alma mater!) in the fall.
How cute! Love sentiments! What a perfect set! Thanks for all the inspiration!
You have designed a wonderful gift set and your team has come up with so many great projects this month! Congrats on a job well done!
Good grief, Nichole, how can I choose a project to do when they all look so fabulous!?!?
What a fantastic sentimental jewelry box! Love all the special details and your bracelet poem is wonderful. Love what I have seen of this set so far. Great font and sentiments!!!
I absolutely love Lisa Johnson’s Mother’s Day gift set! Using both the Mother & Life stamp sets together beautifully!
Your creativity in designing the jewelry box is just — WOW!!! Brought tears to my eyes with what a special gift this is!
All the projects were wonderful! My mother is deceased, but I have her sister, my aunt, who means the world to me. Debbie’s quilt square-themed frame and card would be perfect for my aunt since she is a quilter. On one side of the 2-frame project, I would put a photo of the two of us on one of our European trips.
What a beautiful tin…. thanks for the inspiration and for a chance to win such a meaningful stamp set!!
oh nichole….i can’t believe how beautiful these projects are….i make my mom scrapbook pages of her family every year for mother’s day and these stamps will definitely help! i think i might just try out your idea as well….right down to the bracelet which i think is fabulous!!! tfs!
Wow! Fabulous projects. Love them all.
Nicole your jewelry box is just beautiful. The entire team has done great work.It just brings tears to my eyes thinking about my mother and the memories. I did pick up some ideas I could use to make some sort of memory collection. Thank you all so much for being who you are. I am looking forward to the 15th.
This box is so lovely! Your ‘trick’ to make these dividers in the box is so genius, you know? I know another way to make them but it’s not as good as yours. I’ll certainly try to make a box like this one sometime… I think I’ll try to make what Lauren and Geny made too… Maybe for my mom or my grandma.
Thank you for all this inspiration!
Looks like another gorgeous set, Nichole. And your creativity continues to be amazing – wow – what you can do with a nugget tin!!
That jewerly box is just so adorable. You make it look so easy to make, the paper and card are so very beautiful. TFS.
These are wonderful projects! Amazing how many different ways you can use this set. I love Debbie Olson’s Quilt Block Frame. Beautiful colors and stunning.
Your tin is beautiful…don’t know if I could accomplish it, though! I think I will for sure try making Dawn’s Memory Jar. My own mother passed away when I was a baby, but my mother-in-law would love seeing memories from all of her kids.
Wow, these projects are stunning!! So many different gifts that our moms will surely love. Great job all!
I just love the sentiment used on the top of the Jewerly Box! What a cool stamp set!
When I saw the jewelry box, I knew it was a gift that my Mom will love. I defintely want to try making one. Also, I love the travel mug and card that Lisa made–the colors made the flowers so realistic. They’re all great projects! Thank you for the wonderful ideas!
thanks for the opportunity and cool stamps!!!
I really like the project you made best, Nichole!!! What a beautiful keepsake! It would be perfect for any woman in our lives!!!
Who would ever think of doing that with the nugget box???? What an amazing idea!
What a lovely Idea!!
Love Love IT
Your jewelry box has blown me away! I have to try it!
My jaw is still on the floor with your project today, Nichole…how do you come up with one fabulous idea after another?!? This box is top of my list for my own mother, and I can’t wait to get this set to make it happen for her!
I like the sentiment ‘words can never express how much you mean to me’. Lovely set! Thanks for the chance to win.
It would be hard to choose just one. I like that they don’t say “mother’s day” and could be used as gifts all year long! Great ideas!
I am just amazed by this box!!!!!
What a beautiful set! All of the gifts are wonderful and I look forward to making many of them!!!
What a beautiful idea!!!! I have to say I especially love Dawn’s idea-what a treasured keepsake for a mother:)
What wonderful ideas for any mother! Although my Mom is no longer with us, I can’t wait to do something with this set to give to my granddaughters to give to their Mothers! Just to let my daughters-in-law know how special they are! Thank you!
Your jewelry box is gorgeous! Thank you for the chance to win!
You gals outdid yourselves! (I guess mothers inspire us that way don’t they.) All the gifts and cards were just beautiful! Too many pretty things to choose just one! Thanks for sharing your ideas and creations with us!
Your jewelry box is just beautiful. It’s feminine,elegant and so full of thoughtfulness. I simply love it. I know for sure I’ll go for this stamp set as we never thanks or reward with love our mum enough.
Wow! The projects are all so beautiful! I love the sentiments in this set. And the flourishes are so fun!
awesome as usual
Wow! These are fabulous projects. I especially love Dawn’s Memory Jar. What a fantastic idea! Thank you to everyone for all the wonderful inspiration you provided (now I have no excuse!)
WOW is all can say! I just love the jewelry box and bracelet that you’ve created! That fabric paper is fabulous! I would love to try this project out; the sentiment you used on this card is my fav so far as it is definitely true in my life! I have 2 kids but my mom has 11 and you have no idea how many times I asked myself how mom ever did it with so many, as I was struggling with 2! She’s a saint!
Kathy Camasso
Your project is amazing. You always think down to the smallest detail. I love the sentiments in this set, they are really touching and beautiful.

Everything is so beautiful!
I love the jewelry box. It is so pretty and meaningful. The bracelet is very nice too.

Wow what a perfect Mother’s day gift from the heart. I can’t wait to see this stamp set.
This is absolutely fabulous! Thanks!
I loved browsing through all of the Mother’s Day ideas on all of the designers’ blogs. The jewelry box was definitely my favorite, though. Your mother will love it, I am sure.
This little jewelry box is gorgeous. You are always an inspiration. What a wonderful set for the most wonderful person in all of our lives.
The box you made is so beautiful. Thank you for all your great ideas!
Love the fabric paper 🙂 … totally creative
WOW, a handmade jewelry box made out of a nugget tin. Ingenious. That mother stamp set also looks like it’s going to be a must have. Thanks for the chance to win.
Such a beautiful project Nicole!!! I can’t wait to recreate this for someone special too!
What creativity!! I love what you have done and I just so happen to have a nugget box! LOL! Thank you for the inspiration! You did a beautiful job. I’m really looing forward to seeing this entire set!
What a beautiful gift! I’d love to try making one of these for my Mom. The fabric insert was an amazing idea!
The team has done it again, another wonderful idea! Will be making two of these for Mother’s day!
Wow! I am speechless. What a beautiful project, Nicole!
Love the projects! My wheels are now turning to make something special for my mom! Thanks!
Seriously. ADORABLE!!!!!
Awesome projects from all the girls! I can’t wait to see all the stamps in the new set.
You are amazing! Turning such a simple basic tin into an elegant jewelry box! Beautiful!
So cool! I love all the gifts so far and I definitely want to try making some of the fun gifts – for my mom and for my other friends as well! Can’t wait to see the full set and love the jewelry box! So cute!
Love the pictures and colors of this! Wonderfullllll!!!!

The jewelry box is just exquisite…the details of adding the feet and the decorative metal piece to the front just bring the tin to whole new level. Lovely! Thanks again for the inspiration!
Wow! Nichole, I am so glad we have a selection of Mother’s Day sets now! How elegant and beautiful!
Wow Nichole, this is absolutely amazing! I’ve been tagging along with all the sneak peeks and looking forward to this release so much.
I know my mom would really appreciate such a well thought out gift. I’m going to start making a list now for everything I’ll need to complete such an amazing project.
Thank you for always giving us such amazing inspiration!
Chris
I love Debbie Olson’s quilt piece she put inside the picture frame – sooooo pretty! You certainly have a talented design team!!
This is stunning! I love how you used the fabric, I’ll have to give it a try today! The sentiments you used are just perfect, this is a set I’m going to need!
All of the projects are just lovely and amazing … as usual! I really love the jewelry box you made, Nichole … so inventive using the nugget box. Absolutely beautiful bracelet and the poem is very touching.
What great ideas. I am sure the special Mothers will love their homemade gifts. I found every one teriffic.
These ideas are all so great, it’s going to be hard to pick just one! But, I think I am going with your jewelery box, Nicole, it fits my mom’s style so perfectly!
Completely inspiring and amazing!!!
What a beautiful jewlery box. Your mother has a very speacial and talented daughter to be proud of.
The “mother” flourish is a great touch too.
What a fantastic gift idea – beautiful. I think I’ll be making one. Stamps are just perfect.
This is so beautiful!!
The gifts are all beautiful. They all have such wonderful ideas. I just love the word mother with all the flourishes.
I love the jewelery box, I love how you make the inserts. It makes the project look so finished. Beautiful job as alway!
What a wonderful and thoughtful gift for your mother. I love this new set, it is so meaningful.
I read your blog first.. and beads and tins are some of my favorite things… but I have to say that you were edged out by Lisa Johnson! Her travel mug is exquisite! It just looks so elegant and can be personalized in so many ways.
All the stamp sets are great this month. I shall have to really focus on selling some things on ebay, as any money in my paypal account is earmarked for papertreyink products!
After seeing more of the DT work this set is gorgeous! Great project!
Absolutely gorgeous! I love the card, so beautiful.
My mother is no longer living, but I am part of a card-swap group that makes cards for our local library to sell (for $1–we are an impoverished rural area) and defray the cost of books. Mother’s Day is one of our biggest holidays for card sales and this stamp set would be PERFECT! Count me in!
I can’t wait to see the full reveal on this one! The gift ideas are simply beautiful and SO inspired. Some of my bestest gifts from my kids are the ones they have made for me 🙂
Nichole, The project looks amazing!!! My favorite part is the sentiments. The ones from Life are beautiful. My favorite is the one you chose for your mother’s jewelry box. “Everything I am today…” That sentiment really fits for my mother and me. I can’t wait for the 15th to get the set!
Thanks for the chance to win.
gorgeous! what an elegant idea! i LOVE the little feet on the jewelry box and the dividers you made w/in them! thanks for the inspiration!
Not all mother/daughter relationships are as “unambiguous” as some of these sentiments represent. But, as always, I enjoy seeing the projects!
Wow! Beautiful projects from the whole team.
This is one of the best posts from PTI. =D I just found out that I’m pregnant, but that quote sure is hitting home even before my little Jellybean has been born.
Lovely set.
I loved your jewelry box…so beautiful. And I thought Dawn’s little scrolls tied with different ribbons was so cute. Thanks for all the ideas.
Everyone did such an amazing job on their projects! Nichole your jewlery box is just stunning!! I know this set will be loved by MANY!
~Monica~
Such great ideas! Thank you!
What a great set! It is just gorgeous. And thank you so much for all of the gift ideas. Once again you and the other ladies have outdone yourselves.
What a great great idea that jewlery box is!! So very creative. I also liked Melissa’s idea, I love all of her vintage, girley designs.
All of the ideas were great. Thanks for sharing!!!
Your gift is beautiful! I can’t wait to see the projects from the other team members. Thanks for offering the fun prize!
I am AMAZED with your jewelery box idea!! It’s the most clever idea I’ve ever seen!!! And, so beautiful!! I cannot wait to try one!
Thanks for a chance to win!
Karen
“I never knew the depth of your love until I became a parent myself” – I LOVE it! That sentiment pretty much sums it up. Great set.
You all have come up with such beautiful gifts for mothers! I cannot wait to try some of them….
Wow, what a great way to start a Friday the 13th. I have been really enjoying checking out all the Mother”s gifts. Love the little jewelry box and bracelet. I also make jewelry and am eager to try both! Thanks!
this is such a lovely idea, I know my mom would love it.
All I can say is WOW. Nicole you always have such great ideas. I am sure your mom will really love and cherish that jewelry box. That is such an awesome idea. I am going to have to try something like that for my DD for her b-day. She’s turning the big “13” this year. She would love something like this. Thanks so much for all your inspiration to us!
This set looks great! I will be new mom in November and I can imagine that I will use this set a lot!
beautiful card – and the sentiment could also be used for anyone who has helped you along the way..thank you for the chance to win it.
Wow!! What a beautiful project.
what a lovely gift! You are really inspiring me to pull out the beads and create something!
I love everything that was shown today–it is an amazing collection! I think I’d like to try yours (Nichole’s) and Debbie’s first, but everyone’s projects are awesome! Thanks for putting together such a beautiful and creative collection.
I love the jewellery box idea and immediately jotted notes in my idea book. Great idea and so simple! Thanks for the inspiration.
Perfect timing! Can’t wait to see the whole set.
Everyone’s projects were beautiful. But I especially love your jewelry box. What a beautiful treasure you turned that box into! Anyone would feel special receiving a special box like that. I can’t wait for the party tomorrow to see all of the sets!
Wowza! I love everyone of the projects. I am going to try to make my mom the jewelry box that you made Nicole. I dabble in beading so I may also make her a bracelet or I may splurge and buy her a Pandora bracelet. Thanks for putting all of these projects and instructions in a downloadable format. YOU ROCK!
Teresa
Ooowwww… mu mother will love it!!!!
Nicole I almost fell off my chair! What a fantastic idea! You always have the most creative ideas. I am going to try my hand at the jewelry box this year! I have 2 daughters with children and I think this would make a fantastic gift for the children to give their mother. Thank you!!!!
I love your jewelry box. You have such great ideas. Thanks.
Great job by your team and you! I love all the projects, especially the jewelry box. I, too, make jewelry and am eager to try both the box and the bracelet. Thanks for all!!
I’m definatly making yours Nicole just love it the box and bracelet. I may even have to add a pair of dangly earrings my mom loves them.
It’ll be a wonderful gift!
All of the gifts are amazing. There are some that I can see myself doing more than others because of comfort level, but I think i would like to challenge myself and make the jewelry tin. It’s so incredibly beautiful!! :o)
All of the Mother’s Day gifts and cards are great. Thank you for creating the downloads of the examples for us again this month. I really like having all the examples in one spot, I have been printing them off and putting them in a binder for easy reference.
No words for this box!!!!
Your jewelry gift box is absolutely gorgeous, and the jewel feet give it that special final touch!
loving the jewelry box and lauren’s keepsake box…..thanks for a great set, I know i’ll use this@!
Wow, that tin is beautiful! Thanks for the chance to win!
You never cease to amaze me with your creativity. Thank you so much for sharing you fabulous ideas.
This is a GREAT project. I love how your blog steps out of the stamping “box” and takes us all to another crafty level!!! Thank you!!!
Beautiful project! Can’t wait to see the whole set.
I have truly enjoyed ALL of the projects shared and I hope to create a card or two. But the one that spoke to me most is Lisa’s project…because my mother died in 1994 and Mother’s Day is a tough day for me. I DO celebrate the fabulous women in my life and I know just the lady who would truly appreciate something like Lisa’s project.
Thank you so much for your attention to detail and the love that oozes out of everything you create. You are fabulously talented and we are all blessed because of that talent and your generosity!
What a great project. I am definitely going to have to make that one.
I really loved Dawn’s memory jar idea and this sentiment “I never knew the depths of your love until I became a parent myself” is so true I almost want to cry.
they are all stunning projects. I love the jewelry box alot! I think I may attempt it.
thank you for the free download too!
That box/bracelet are GREAT!
Wow. And the DT always rocks it out of the park. WOW…
Wow, what a great project! your creativity never ceases to amaze me!!
All I can say is wow, truly amazing! I would love to try and replicate that jewelry box!
I love your jewelry box! I have some of the tins stashed away from a previous purchase and would love to make one for my mom. It may also be exactly what I’m looking for to make as bridesmaid gifts for my daughters upcoming wedding! I think it would be really cute to tuck this into one of Michelle’s small patchwork bags that she posted a few months ago. Now, if you would only come up with a sunflower stamp set, I’d be all set!
Such gorgeous projects from the entire team…I can tell that this is going to be a “must have” set! smiles…
Oh, I have been waiting for a set like this! What a beautiful job all of you have done…very inspiring!
Nichole, I absolute love your personal jewelry box. Thank you for the idea – it’s the perfect gift that my mom & so many others moms will treasure for many years to come!
Oh my gosh girl you are simply amazing! Can I have a blood transfusion? lol I think if I could just have a drop it would give me some great creative mojo! 🙂
I love the idea of a divided tin — and my mother loves jewelery so it is the perfect way to wrap a great gift for her!! Thanks for the inspiration!
Wow! this is very elegant and great for all mothers out there. Fantastic handmade jewerly and tin, too.
Wonderful! I really need a jewelry box like that- I currently set my things on the bathroom counter in the lid of an old loose powder container. Not quite as elegant as your creation!
They are all lovely gifts. My fave project is Nicole’s box & bracelet set but…..I think Lauren’s heartfelt words about her mom was the sweetest. Brough tears to my eyes actually. Great work girls.
I can see myself making a notebook such as the one Niki Estes made. My Mom is very busy running her own business, so a place to list things she needs to do would be great.
I love how your brain thinks. 🙂 Your projects always come out so well though-out and beautiful!! 🙂 I also love the sentiments included with this set…just perfect!
I love the jewelry box that you made and also Lisa’s project. SO much inspiration from everyone!!
oh.my.word.
so totally and completely AWESOME!
Spectacular — wow what an amazing gift for your Mom!! I love how with PTI sets, you can create the most elegant, gorgeous gifts!
Wow I just love what Lisa did! That really confirmed that I need that stamp set!
I’m thrilled about this stamp set. Everyone love their mom — a perfect addition to my stampin’ supply! Your project is incredible — talk about taking it to the next level! You go, girl!
very cool!!!
Thanks for the steps!!! LOVE IT
My favorite projects are the jewelry box, the memory jar and the tumbler. Each of those would be wonderful gifts ~ not just for a mom but for a dear friend. I will be trying all of them soon! Thanks for another round of great ideas.
Beautiful gift and stamp set! Thanks for the chance to win ~
I love all of the gifts, but I especially love the everyday jewelry box in this post. Think I’ll give that one a try…it would be a terrific gift for anyone you love!
My Mother would have loved this gift. (She’d even be happy with the poem alone) What a gorgeous idea! I do have a daughter that fits the bill…hummm. Thanks Nicole.
Love love love!!!
What a great project!!!!
Fantastic post, beautiful set – so inspiring! Thanks for the great ideas!
The entire design team provided such lovely ideas! Your project in particular would be PERFECT for my mom as beading is to her what stamping is to me! She is a jewelry fiend and I think she would LOVE this little jewelry box!
So many great ideas! I might put together a jewellery box and/or the to-go coffee cup. Thanks for the inspiration! Wonderful sentiments in this stamp set!
Thanks for the chance. I hope to win!
Oh my I would need to make a late gift as here in the UK mothers day is 22nd March, It wouldn’t be a hardship though as my Mam is a very special ladt who deserves an extra special gift.
I would make Lisa’s tea project, I love the colours and the idea.
I love the little chipboard book that Heather Nichols (Pine) made…so beautiful and unique. I can’t wait to make one for my own mother!
Wow!!! I LOVE what you made for your mom. That was amazing. I hope I can recreate that sometime because it is totally worth a shot, especially seeing how beautiful it is when it is done.
Yeeeeaaaahhhh… love this idea!!!! Thanks
So lovely. I’ll do one for my mom!
This is beautiful–entirely too cute! Off to check out the other creations. Thanks for sharing and all the great directions!
All of the Mother’s Day projects are so touching and beautiful! I just love the sentiments that I’ve seen so far in this set. It really comes from the heart – Thank you for creating something so inspiring and beautiful.
This is totally awesome! How clever and lovely!
i’d probabaly try to do your project nicole. 🙂
I love that sentiment of not knowing the depth of love until becoming a parent myself. Its is so true and I can’t wait to use it. As for this project, well….. I am just in awe. Truly. the little details to the tin, the poem, the bracelet! It is all so fantastic! I absolutely love it. I also love Pine’s project with “matching” photos between mother and daughter. it is so thoughtful and sweet. I hope to make something like that this year. Overall, (and once again) I am blown away by the wonderful designs from you and your DT. absolutely fabulous!
Wow! the design team out did themselves for this occasion, all have beautiful projects. The one that really pulls at my heartstrings is the jewelry box you made from the nugget tin. Every year I have made my mom a special bracelet for Mothers day and have always tryed to come up with a special box to put it in. This year she will receive her bracelet in this beautiful tin jewelry box and I know she will ask me to make her several so she will have a keepsake box for all her other bracelets. Love the “Mother” stamp in this set. Thank you to the entire team for sharing all your creativity with us.
Wow! What an increditable team you have!! Such talent. Thanks for sharing!
All the gifts are beautiful and mothers is an awesome set I cannot wait to buy. To honor a mother is to honor ourselves. TFS
I think I am going to put a spin on your jewelry box and make some notecards… my mom and MILs love my PTI notecards!
Thanks for all the inspiration!
Thanks for the great tutorial! This is a great project. Can’t wait to try it. Thanks so much for taking the time to share such neat stuff with us. Cathy
Another great set….the projects are all wonderful…thanks for all your hard work on them, Design Team@!
Wow! Everyone did such wonderful projects for their mothers…Of course I got teary eyed looking at some of them and reading their stories. I’m definitely inspired to make something heartfelt and wonderful for my mommma this year. I’d have to say that the jewelry box was my favorite and I’m very grateful for the free template.
All of these projects and stories are just incredible. I’m about to become a mother in the beginning of April and can’t wait to celebrate my first Mother’s Day!
I love all of the projects, but I think I might recreate Mish’s. The sentiments brought tears to my eyes, but my favorite one is about not knowing the depth of your mother’s love until you became a parent yourself. I know my mother would love this. Great job as usual, Nichole.
The jewelry box is adorable. I love Lisa’s travel tumbler too. Might have to try both!
I love Betsy Veldman’s word book created for her mother. I think I would like to create this for my mom, as well. Your new stamp set is just beautiful and a must-have! Can’t wait to win (or buy) my set!!
The gift items everyone created are absolutely beautiful! Love them all and appreciate that you share so many lovely things.
Absolutely beautiful! I love this project and cannot wait to attempt it! I love this set!
I love Lisa Johnson’s travel mug. That is so like my mom. One she loves coffee and two she has always had a wonderful garden. Everyone made lovely gifts. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks for giving me so many more great ideas for handmade gifts for my mom! She adores these kind of heartfelt gifts more than any other. I can definetly see this set finding a permanent residence in my home.
I love this project and your idea about how to use fabric is genius! I also love that I have another use for all of those “nugget” tins I have in the garage gathering dust!
Wow – the design team blew me away today!!! Everyone has such wonderful stories of their mothers and such great gifts!!! I have to say that although I loved them all I will definitely be recreating your jewelery box – my mom would LOVE it!! The other project that I can’t wait to make is Debbie’s quilt frame and card. My grandmother is 93 years old and still hand stitches the most beautiful quilts. I know she will LOVE this. Thanks for all the inspiration and the chance to win such an awesome set.
This is gorgeous! I’m always amazed at what you come up with.
Beautiful jewelry box – and gorgeous card too. Your sentiments are outstanding.
All of the projects were wonderful. I may have to give Dawn’s project a try, as I really think my Mom would appreciate this one. Love this set!
Oh my gosh, that box! I am SO impressed! I am taking a mental note of how you did your dividers… Definitely something to remember!
Thanks for sharing!!
Cindy
wonderful gift! thanks for sharing
OMGosh… such talent, how to choose?
I loved Heather’s project because of all the nostalgic photos.
Nicole’s jewelry box is amazing! How incredibly creative your mind is, I’m in awe every time I see what you’ve made.
This will be the 1st yr. in 40 some yrs. that I will not be able to give my Mother a Mother’s Day card since passing away in Nov.; however, memories of her will always be with me.
I am collecting pictures of her, starting when she was young and I am going to put together a scrapbook together in honor of her memory.
I loved my Mother dearly and she knew it. We talked every day on the phone, and I don’t think there was a day that went by that we told each other “Love You” Alice R.
WOW! I loved all the beautiful projects from the design team members! Gorgeous ideas and a beautiful stamp set. It made me think of all the happy times I spend with my mom! I am hoping there’s a “MOM” stamp in addition to “Mother”. My mom hates being called Mother (she thinks it makes her sound old/stodgy)… So I’m hoping there’s “Mom” and “Grandma” in the set and something for those “like a second mom”… Love it!
I love all the gorgeous gifts and ideas. The jewelry tin is beautiful. However, I will probably try Dawn’s idea first. Thanks for the chance to win this great set!
Amazing how you can transform a simple box into such a beautiful, heart-felt gift! Little touches like the “feet” and the embellishment make such an impact.
Such a beautiful gift for Mom, or anyone. I can see so many possiblilies. Can’t wait to see the entire set.
Absolutely gorgeous awesome job to the team! Love the sentiments!
Beautiful!! Just thinking what my mom has done for me brings tears to my eyes. I can’t wait to make her something beautiful for Mother’s Day!
I love all of the mother gifts. They really inspired me to start some new projects. Thank you. Also thanks for the giveaway.
Nicole that will be such a treasured gift for your mother. I am sure she will love it. Mother’s day is always a sad day for me, I lost mother 19 years ago next month. Even though I am a mother of 2 wonderful children I have a hard time enjoying the day. I only hope that I will be around a long time for my daughter to enjoy our time together.
Thank you for sharing,
Marla
This is so beautiful, so unique! Any mother would be proud to receive such a personal, sweet gift from her child.
I loved seeing what everyone came up with. You guys rock!!!
I can’t wait to see all of this set. The sentiment about love and becoming a parent yourself has to be one of my favorites. Can’t wait to use it for my mom!
How Pretty…..I’d love a chance to win.
I am intrigued by the sentiments in the Mother set. I have a fantastic mother, but have other women in my life I consider my other mothers, I think the sentiments would work as well. Nichole, The jewelry box and bracelet are fantastic. I want one for Mother’s Day!!!
I Love Love all the ideas and cannot wait to get my hands on this stamp set. It is beautiful. The other ones are great too. LOVE the jewelry box idea.
I have to try a few of those projects, very beautiful!
Oh Wowzers! What a beautiful, stunning gift. You are so clever and crafty Nichole. Who wouldn’t love to win this set and who wouldn’t love to receive this on Mother’s day:)
Another beautiful idea. Your blog is so informative!
I LOVED your jewelry box Nichole! Those little feet you made with beads are just precious! I can see lots of uses for this little box beyond jewelry too. Thanks for the cool idea (and the chance to win!)
~Meredith
The only word I have for this jewelry box is “STUNNING”!…which is the same word I used when my daughter came out of the dressing room in THE wedding dress! I can’t wait to make this box for her and give it to her with a special gift from my heart to hers on her wedding day. Thank you, Nichole…what a precious gift idea.
These projects are all INCREDIBLE…I know I say this every month – but the DT has outdone themselves!!!! Way to go! I think the sentiment that most ‘got me’ is the “Someone who can take the place of all others, but whose place no one else can take” it says it ALL. WOW.
I absolutlely LOVE the box you made Nichole. I will be making one for my Mother for sure and maybe even my sister … I can’t wait for release this month. Thank yo ufor all you do Nichole and the team.
I love your jewellry box if I hadn’t seen it through the steps I wouldn’t have recognized it as a nugget tin. The finished product is elegant and the pictures, bracelet and poem would be sure to bring tears of joy to any Mom. Thanks for sharing this beautiful gift idea as well as all of the design teams contributions. Ann Lind
What beautiful projects all of you have created. The one that I plan on making first though is yours, Nichole. I’m changing it a bit and designing it for my little girl who loves jewelry and boxes. Won’t she be surprised when she opens it up and sees photos of the two of us together. Thank you for inspiring me ladies. As always you’ve outdone yourselves.
I think I will definitely give the jewelry box a try. I love that idea. Everyone did such an awesome job on all of their projects. The detail everyone used is amazing.
thanks much
I can’t just choose one project so my favorite 2 are Nichole’s jewelry box and Lisa’s travel mug. Awesome projects. Thanks everyone!
I love the tin. SO beautiful.
Really lovely. I love the what I see so far!
Hi Nichole,
What a lovely gift! I’m sure your Mom will be honored to receive it. I’m so looking forward to the release this weekend! All of your sneak peeks and samples have been tantalizing! Thank you for sharing!
All of the ideas really are wonderful!! I do love the little coaster memory book and your jewelery tin is a really neat custom idea! I even have a nugget tin left over in my stash to play with. Looking forward to the full reveal!! :>
All the projects were just fabulous! I really loved the jewelry box with the bracelet. I just love how it all coordinates and then the bracelet with the bead meanings is wonderful too! Thanks for the chance!
These are all such amazing projects!!! I don’t know if I can choose just one to make for my mother! AND the sentiments are wonderful! I teared up just reading some of those sentiments!!!
What a beautiful gift… You are truly so inspiring….
What a wonderful idea, thank you for sharing your talent and ideas!
Wow, all these projects are so inspiring. Thank you for such a place of inspiration. I really am drawn to mini albums so my natural tendency is to make the mini album by Heather and that gorgeous word book that Betsy made. I love them both.
what an awesome project Nichole… it is just stunning!
Aren’t Mom’s the best!
Wow, what a beautiful tin! Your mother will be so lucky to receive such a thoughtful gift. Thanks for the inspiration!
Thank goodness for your blog! I could never come up with such creative ideas on my own. Beautiful.
WOW…I loved the Quilt Block Frame. My mom loves to quilt and that frame would look great paired with a picture of her granddaughters (only grandkids). Thank you so much for sharing all the wonderful ideas! I have made my mom some kind of mini scrapbook every year for the past 3 or 4 years for Mother’s Day.
What a great sneak peak from everyone! I love Nikki’s gift set-so simple, clean and elegant. Something my mom would love!!
HOPE J
All the projects are so special! You inspire me daily. Thank you.
What a beautiful set…I would love to make the card Nicole made…my mom has Alzheimers so spending time with her and making a lovely card will be perfect for her. She can still read a bit. I love the flourish of the new set.
I just love that the Design Team developed such thoughful, priceless gifts that are inexpensive to put together. Thanks to you and all of the Design Team for the inspiration!
Thanks for the chance to win!
I love the jewelry box idea!! I love making jewelry and so this is a perfect thing for me to make!
This set is absolutely beautiful! Sadly my mother has passed on, but I am inspired to make this ‘In Memory’ as gifts to my 3 sisters. Thank You for sharing your wonderful ideas.
Your Mother’s Day set is stunningly beautiful. Your creativity never ceases to amaze me. Wonderful, superb, incredibly lovely…. Thanks for sharing.
Absolutely gorgeous. For those of you that still have your mother – spoil her and let her know what she means to you.
What a beautiful jewelry box! I love the other ideas, too, and I’m looking forward to seeing this set in its entirety.
Your jewellery box is absolutely stunning!! I will definitely be trying this one! I can’t wait to see the Mother’s set as well – it’s definitely on my list!!
It is the highlight of my day to open up the computer and see how you will inspire me today! I love how much joy the entire DT brings to my day! Of course I have a few personal favorites I go to first! LOVED both Nichole and Lisa’s projects! Perfect for the mom’s in my life. Happy Mothers Day to all.
Thsnks for the chance to win!
So beautiful…your project is one any mom would love to receive!!
OMG, this looks awesome! I think I’m going to make one of those! Fabulous idea!
Beautiful. The perfect way to get us into gear and remember to say thank you to our moms.
This is such an amazing gift Nichole, makes me a little sad, my Mom has passed, and oh how she would have loved this! I should make them for the other Mom’s in my life!
I love the jewelry box and the Then & Now book. The ideas are all so great. How can you pick just one?
Nichole, this is just gorgeous. Your mom is definitely going to love it. Can’t wait to see the whole set too.
This is an amazing idea. I am always so surprised at the creativity you all possess!!! I just love this!!
WOW! What an AMAZING gift! You are all so talented!
Wow so many great ideas but I am guessing Pine’s, since facebook I now have all this pic os my grandmother that I have never seen beofre so I would like to make her a mini album of them!
Wow! the feet – the fabric – the saying – what a great gift idea for mom or anyone. My mom is gone but I might make a couple of these for my friends to give their mom’s.
Beautiful projects! Everyone’s mother is going to be glowing with pride when they receive such lovely and heartfelt gifts. I plan on making my mom a recipe box for Mother’s Day using these projects for inspiration (along with lots of Papertrey Ink products). Thank you for the chance to win!
This is a beautiful project, thanks for such wonderful inspiration.

I am in awe of your craftiness. You inspire me everytime I read your blog. Thank you for sharing this idea and this wonderful set!
OMG! I’ve only recently found PTI and I’m so addicted. I made my first order last month and love everything. All of the ideas and creations make me so excited to create. Thanks!!
This project is so beautiful, Nichole–the embossed top, the fabric, the beaded feet, the flower. Your design abilities continually amaze me!
Incredibly beautiful and moving.
The projects are so varied and thoughtful that I am having trouble deciding which one I would duplicate. Definitely more than one for sure. I can’t believe you were able to turn a nugget tin into a jewelry box. Wow!
I really liked the special touches you added to your projects! It was just the thing to take them from great to FANTASTIC! Can’t wait to see the entire set images for this release.
Of course, all of them are wonderful! I love Heather’s…I’m getting into using all of these coasters I have laying around!
And I totally want to make yours, Nichole, I’ve never made jewelery, or even desired to…but you did it! Must make one of those!
Your jewlery box is fantastic but I think I have to copy Heather’s idea this year. 🙂
I love your jewelry box. I might try it with a smaller tin, though. I’m thinking something to keep in your purse to tuck an extra pair of earrings into. Or maybe to keep in a desk drawer in your office (in case you decide to go out after work). Hmmm…. The scheming begins 🙂 Thanks for the great inspiration!
I am so doing your project for mother’s day. i love it
i love the sentiments in mother’s day!
I’m not sure when this will end or if I’ve missed the cutoff. (WEDNESDAY March 14? Do you mean SATURDAY March 14 or was this supposed to be posted earlier?) Anyhoo…regardless whether I’m entered or not, this is a beautiful project. So incredibly creative and inspiring. In short, WOW!
All the gift ideas were wonderful (and even though it’s only March, they would make wonderful holiday gifts this year) – but I thinking Heather’s mini-album was so very cool and oh-so do-able since I’ve already got some nifty little coasters!!
Thanks for the continue inspiration!
Beautiful! I like the color scheme you chose. And those are such lovely sentiments!
Your team is the best design team! There are always cute and creative ideas that never fail to impress me. Thanks for sharing your creativity!
I have ENJOYED my little blog hopping this AM.. I ADORE all the projects.. I dont know how to pick one.. good thing my moms birthday is in June! 🙂 FABULOUS ideas all the way around…. looking forward to owning the NEW stamp sets.. and PINK paper, ribbon, ink, buttons! 🙂
have a WONDERFUL weekend!
So hard to choose, they are all soo lovely & creative. What a beautiful set! I think though that my favorite is the travel mug that Lisa Johnson did. Thank you for the opportunity!
OMG this is so beautiful and all the quotes I have seen so far are perfect for my wonderful Mom..hope this comment is a lucky one!!! Deidre M
The jewelry box is just beautiful-I look forward to making one for my mom as well as my mother in law!
Gail
Thank you all for sharing your stories. I love the jewelry box, coffee tumbler and Melissa P’s LOVE banner. I think combined they would make my mom feel very special. Thank you. All of the sentiments I read would apply to my mom.
Wow! What an amazing gift. You’re mother must be very proud of you!
Oh my goodness Nicole, your project is awesome!!!!
I wish I could have my mom alive, but I have tons of great memories with her.
Thanks for your generosity
God bless
Giovana
It’s so true that moms appreciate the home made gifts the most. I love all of the gifts but I love to find a few special photos and make a mini book. I can see the sentiments in this set being perfect for that.
I adore this project and can’t wait to give it a try! Thank you for the inspiration.
I just love Dawn’s memory jar! Just a great idea! I think I will make it for my grandmother with all her kids and grandkids!
Everyone on the Design Team came up with wonderful gifts for their Moms but the one that I would like to duplicate is your Jewelry box. Its beautiful and I know my Mom will love it. Thanks for the chance to win the set!
love it! And $15 is right in my price range right now 🙂 Great job – this is something every mother will cherish!
Nicole, this gift brought tears to my eyes, it is so very thoughtful ~ I am certain your Mom will treasure the jewelry box, bracelet, photos and card forever. Your creative talent just amazes me!
I absolutely LOVE the jewelry box!!! This would also work for a traveling jewelry box! I would love to make one of these for my mother and sister!
What a cool idea Nichole, your ideas alone will sell a stamp set anyday!
You are amazing!
Kisha
The jewelry box is drop dead gorgeous! Be still my heart. I love it.
What a great jewelry box Nichole! You are a great inspiration!
*hugs* Heather x
All I can say is: “I wanna be YOUR Mom!!!” What a lucky lady to have YOU for a daughter, friend, and creative genius!!! 😀
I’m blown away by all the thoughtful and pretty projects the team made for this event. Some had me smiling, others had me in tears, all of them were worth the time and effort to make. I’m sure I’ll be making at least 5. One for my mother, one each for my daughter and daughters-in-law and one more for my sister. All my favorite “Mothers”. 🙂
My mother would be in tears if I made her the little jewelry box. She loves things with meaning, the way you did with each stone of the bracelet. Yes, she’ll get that!
I can’t wait to see this release! Wonder what other goodies you have to surprise us?
Hugs,
Jan
I wish I had just a little of the creativity you ladies always have. This little jewelry box is just the cutest thing…I am off to check the other blogs.
Cant wait to hit the purchase button on my order this month.
Blessings.
Amazing! I’m always inspired by your incredible creativity. Also, thank you for all the time you spent creating the pdf. Wow! I already have a blank notebook to embellish for my mother, so Niki’s notebook and pen set idea will be perfect! Thank you!
The jewelry box is as Lauren says.”Over the moon”! What a great gift with a small price tag. I will definately give that ‘paper fabric’ a try. It looks so amazing on your project. Thanks for the new ideas.
this is amazing! Great ideas in time for mothers day (and every day of course!) The jewelry box is great, and the sentiment you used nearly made me cry! it’s so beautiful!
too cute, what an awesome idea for a cute little gift.
Omgoodness…this is a beautiful project. You amaze me wth your ideas!
What neat ideas! I know my mother would much rather have something I made; it’s the personal touch that counts!
All of the projects are so amazing!! When I saw the sneek peek at the word “Mother” the first thing that came to mind was a picture frame with a special picture.
Oh! Nicole, What a wonderful gift idea! I absolutely LOVE the poem. I have just gotten into creating jewelry. I would really love this wonderful stamp set to share with my mother and grandmother.
This was the most moving look at “gifts” for mom! Faboluous job ladies, your inspiration is phenominal.
I just LOVE Dawn’s project and will be recreating for my own wonderful Mom!!
I love all of the projects from this beautiful set. I will have to say though, Lisa Johnson’s set was absolutely my favorite! It sold me right away!
Love this set! Always looking for new things to make and this is just gorgeous!
All of the projects are great! I really love the jewelry box and Betsy’s book too! But I think the one I am most likely to reproduce is Dawn McVey’s jar with the memories. However, I will likely use it for my parents 40th wedding Anniversary in August – they would love that! Now to just get my siblings to cooperate 😀
I really liked all of the projects. I liked the frame by Debbie Olsen and I also really thought Dawn’s idea was really clever. The jewelry box you made is awesome, (I love jewelry and handmade jewelry about as much as I love stamping!) This set looks really beautiful.
OMW! This is soo lovely- what Mother would not swoon! I know mine would 🙂
I especially love the adorable litte feet.
Thank you for the chance to win!
Holy COW!!!! This is amazing!!! Your creativity never ceases to amaze me Nichole. Thanks for sharing all your wonderful ideas with us!!
All the projects are amazing and beautiful! I would love to win this beautiful stamp set, thanks for the chance Nichole!!
Thanks for the download with all the ideas. I especially likes the jewelry box, the travel mug, and the frame with the pictures in it. Thanks for all the wonderful ideas and the chance to win this set.
This is an amazing project! Your creativity never ends. I love each of the sentiments in this set.
So many terrific ideas, not just for Mother’s Day but great for birthdays and holiday gifts too! Looking forward to seeing the full set!
This is wonderful! I know what I’m making for Mother’s Day! Thank you Nichole!
Oh my God you have made me look at my thin in a whole different light I am so glad I have a stash of them in my scrap closet
The Mother’s Day creations that all of the PTI team members made for their mothers are so special. My favorite was hard to pick but I most likely will use Michelle Wooderson’s idea and use the tin in some way from Nicole’s project. I would really like to win the Mother’s Day stamp set!
I loved all of the projects! This set will be special for me. My mom is my dearest friend in the world! She was a single mom that raised two kids and is amazing! I always tell her if I am 1/2 the mom she is I will be happy. Being a mother of three young children I can’t believe she raised us all by herself! I was hoping for a mother’s day set with sentiments and now I have it!
This is incredibly clever. I love the beads on the bottom. I love this idea, my mom would love it 🙂
This is a great girlfriend gift. It’s so pretty. I love it! Thanks again for the wonderful ideas!
all the projects are great but the notebook and pen are more my style and my Mom as well. I like the product and the monochromatic look.
I loved looking thru all the projects show cased today. I’m inspired to try a Mother’s Day project for my Mom who will be 99 yrs. old in Nov.
Debbie’s choice of the two picture frames and the incorporation of the quilting. My Mom is a quilter and I piece quilts so it is something we share.
Nicole, everyone of your designers have made beautiful gifts to be given as Mother’s Day Presents. It would be so hard to just pick one to make. LOL!! I could see myself making one of each actually, but unfortunately my mother is deceased as well as my mother-in-law and they would have truly loved receiving any of those as they both were crafty women and loved receiving homemade items more than store bought because of the love and time it took to make it special for them. I would love to win the set as I think your stamp sets are so beautiful and the sentiments always touch my heart in some way of memories from the past and how I was brought up. I could see myself making some of these special gifts for some of the elderly ladies at my church as a token of “Christian Love”. Keep up the Good Work, you and your team are all truly blessed from the Lord with your talents. {{{HUGS}}}
The “I never knew the depth of your love until I became a parent myself” sentiment really rings true with me. I understand and appreciate my parents much more since becoming a parent.
The sentiment about not knowing the depths of her love until becoming a parent is so perfect not only for a Mother’s Day card but to announce the news that she’ll be a new grandmother (what better Mother’s Day gift could there be???). This is another great release, your creativity and generosity inspire me!
Wow!! Every one of the design team projects are gorgeous. I love Dawn’s idea of the candy jar full of “sweet memories.” Your jewelry box blew me away. I wish I had the team, and means, to replicate each project myself not only for my mom, but my sisters, daughter-in-law, and other special mothers in my life.
Your project is breathtaking, THANK YOU for sharing!! I have several of the nugget tins and I’ve been waiting for “just the right project” … I think I may have found it!! I know my mother would love to receive ANY of the projects the design team has created, guess I’d better get busy! 🙂 Thanks so much for compiling these into a download.
I’m so blown away! These projects are beautiful. My Mom’s birthday is in 10 days and I know she would love a handmade gift using this stamp set!
Beautiful jewelry box! So creative. All of the gifts the DT created are fabulous. I really love Heather’s coaster album. Now I have an idea for all of the coasters I have laying around.
oh WOW! That gift is gorgeous and perfect! I know your mother will love it!
Thanks for the inspiration!
Lisa’s travel mug and Michelle’s note pad are both practical gifts I know my mom would use and love, but Lauren’s frame would touch my mom’s heart the most I think.
This is such a wonderful gift! I love it!
Love the mother font and flourish and all the sentiments.
The design did all did such fabulous projects what talent!! Thanks for all the inspiration
This jewelry box is so cute! I ordered one of these tins a while ago, and I can just feel a new project coming on…!
Thanks for a beautiful new set- it’ll be on my wish list!
Love your jewelry box and everyone did a great job with the challenge!
Can I say I want to make them ALL? I adore this little box. The jewelry feet are pure perfection!
Oh, I just love that box! I love to make jewelry, and what a great companion to the card. I love your company and all your fabulous stamps!
My two favorite Mother’s Day projects are yours and Michelle’s. I can see myself making either one for my mother this year.
Thanks for the inspiration!
~Crystal M.
The project that inspired me the most was Lisa’s travel mug. That is something I think my mom would love. Your Jewelery box if very cool too. Thanks for the chance to win this set.
All the projects are gorgeous but I really love what you did with the nugget tin! I will definately try that.
Oh my, what a beautiful gift. I only wish I still had a mother to give it to. I downloaded the ideas because there are so many people I can use them for.
Thanks!
My gosh–your talent knows no bounds. This gift is absolutely gorgeous & I will so be casing this for my mom! The sayings in this new set are just beautiful! I love everything about it!
hugz,
Suzanne Dean
I love how you make a simple tin to a beautiful jewelry box. Such a beautiful keepsake. I’m sure your mom will love it. I love the way the Mother stamp looks. The flourish is exquisite!
All of the projects are wonderful, but I have to say that I love the jewelry box you made from the tin.
Nichole!! You did it agin. What a beautiful gift and I love the mother flourish stamp. Can’t wait to see the rest
Nichole! YOu are amazing! What a great project! THank you so much for what you and the DT do to inspire us. And that pdf link is a gift to all of us. You gals are top notch!
All of the projects are beautiful! I especially love the jewelry box! The quotes from this set are wonderful. I am inspired to make the most special woman in my life a very special present. Thank you!
Your projects blow me away! This is a gorgeous gift that I’m sure your Mother will LOVE!
Wow. I just don’t know what to say about everyone’s projects. I am so inspired. But I have to say that the jewelry box and bracelet are the ones that my mom would appreciate the most. She would treasure them to her grave, and I think it’s just the right time to make one for her!
OMG, how clever to use the beads for feet. Just love it. You have the best ideas.
Stephanie
That is a fabulous gift! Love it…I might make one for my friend using the Friends stamp released last month. I also love,love the mother set and is definelty on my order!
All the projects are wonderful! I love the the idea of the then and now album. Thanks for getting the ideas flowing for Mother’s Day!
Gorgeous is all I can say. I am speechless as to how amazing this project is! You are truly gifted.
Love the sentiments in this set. There can never be enough to celebrate mom (or dad for that matter).
Nichole…you are just too amazing! I wish I had an ounce of your creativity and imagination. Wow…what a beautiful piece that your mother will adore and cherish for years to come! Thanks for continually providing such incredible inspiration!
Stunning. Absolutely.
All of the projects looks so great! I think that my mom would love the memory jar that Dawn made. I know we love to relive all the memories of our childhood when we are together at holidays. That gift would be perfect for her!
I really loves your bracelet. Also liked Dawn’s memory jar.
Thanks for the giveaway, amazing set,
Maya
What a perfect little box to present a bracelet and earring set to anyone! I will be trying this for sure. 🙂 I love the sentiments I’ve seen so far.
Beautiful ideas for someone special in everyone’s life!
THanks again to you and your team for such wonderful projects for Mothers Day. My gift giving dilemas are solved. Love all the projects, my favorite is the jewelery box. Do you think if I show it to my daughter she will make me one?
My Favortites…ALL of them ..LOL I am completely stunned and amazed with your project. Nugget tin becomes Jewellery box. I absolutely HAVE to try this one for sure!!!
I love it! So creative and so much love put into it. Thanks for sharing!
You amaze me in your creativity!
Thank you for all of the beautiful ideas!
Wow! That’s it…just wow! I am constantly amazed at your projects. Thanks for sharing them!
This whole project made me cry! I love it! My Mom is gone but I have several lovely ladies that I know will not get anything so I will try to brighten their day with one of these! Thank you so much for such a heartwarming gift! This is the one that fits all sizes!
What a beautiul jewerly box. I love the beaded feet. All the design team members did awesome projects. Thanks for sharing.
Wonderful projects from the whole team! Love the ideas shared and can’t wait to try them. I have a large stash of the nugget tins, I’m thinking it would be a great end of the year teacher gift idea too! Thanks for the inspiration!!!
What amazing ideas and inspiration! I’m planning on creating a small keepsake album for my mom by repurposing one of my son’s old board books – I plan to take ideas from several of these projects and incorporate them into my gift! Thanks for the inspiration!!
WOW, what amazing projects – I think my favorite part about them all is the memories that go along with them. God Bless Moms!
Hugs – Min
You have blessed hands… wonderfulllllll… My mom would love to have 1 like this!!! xoxoxo
What wonderful projects!
This is awesome. I love how you were able to integrate fabric into the project.
I haven’t seen everyone’s projects yet but I do love the idea of giving mom something nice to read when she is feeling down. Thanks Dawn!!!
Wow Nichole you are an inspiration!!!
Beautiful!! Love your ideas, so simple yet gorgeous!
i’m totally doing debbie olson’s! thanks for the chance to win this lovely stamp set!
What a beautiful jewelry box. You give me so much inspiration for unique gifts. Thank you Nichole!
Happy Mother’s Day to all. Looks like some really nice stuff for spring is going bloom:)
I love the jewelry box! I made my mother some earrings and necklaces for Christmas this year, so I think I will make her a “belated” jewelry box to go with them. 🙂 It’s a beautiful project.
I just love the bracelet that Nicole made! My Mom always wears bracelets so this is perfect. I’m definately going to have to print out the poem & see if I can find some beads.
Everything is so gorgeous. thank you all for getting this out to us in plenty of time for Mother’s Day. The months fly by and it will be here soon enough!
I will be making Lisa’s coffee tumbler and Nichole’s gorgeous jewelry box,bracelet combination.
THANK YOU so much for creating the pdf file with all the information we need to create these wonderful projects! It’s so much easier than printing them from everyone’s personal blogs, and it’s a great way for me to be able to save the file to refer to. I so look forward to seeing the complete versions of all the new sets!
This set looks fabulous. Unfortunately I lost my mother almost 7 years ago. I love all the quotes I’ve seen on the sneak peeks and think this set would be perfect to use in a tribute album, I keep telling myself I’ll do one some day. The little jewelry box from the tin is adorable, have to try that soon!
I Love everything I have seen from this set. The flourished Mother, and all of the sentiments. Definitely a must have!
I loved all the teams Mother’s Day projects but HANDS DOWN the tin and bracelet was my favorite. ms.cheryl
Nichole you never cease to amaze me with your creativity!! I love what you created with the nugget tin. Absolutely fabulous!! The Mother Set is a must have for me. I can’t wait to order it!!
All the projects are wonderful! I would love to make the jewelry box, what a great gift idea.
I loved them all. I would recreate the one Lauren Made. susan
omg that is far too clever!! Gorgeous!!
That is an amazing project! I can totally see myself making that. Thanks for the great idea!
Oh, I love love love the jewelry box, the idea of the bead feet is just wonderful 🙂
I love the jewelry box. It is so clever and cute. I will definitely try this project.
Ohhhh how cool. I love the feet you put on the jewelry box. So so pretty.
I have never posted on your blog before but I read it always and have it listed as one of my favorites. I am going to make it and the bracelete for my sister for Mother’s day. She is a great mom and a special auntie to my daughter. She will love this. We always make a little gift for each other for Mother’s day. Thanks for the idea. I hope mine turns out as beautiful as yours did.
Wow. I’m in awe of your creative process. That box is stunning! I’d love to try to create something like that myself.
And the sentiment from the Mother stamp set that I really like is: “I never knew the depths of your love until I became a parent myself.” because it is so true. Once I thought about the relationship I want with my daughter, I knew I needed to have that same relationship with my mother.
What a heartwarming set! I love the jewelry box you created – so darling. The beaded feet add an extra special touch. The bracelet you created along with the poem is something any mother would cherish. I think all of the sentiments tug at your heartstrings. I can see this set being used over and over.
What a wonderful idea. Love the little feet on the tin.
It is nice to see a handmade gift with so much love. I am always looking for ideas like this!
What an awesome homemade jewerly box. Very beautiful!!
The design team rocked as usual this month! Nichole this is the coolest gift!
I’ve looked at all the projects and my brain is buzzing with ideas. You and the team never fail to come up with AMAZING ideas! Can’t wait to see this set.
Wow!! All of the Mother’s Day gifts are just wonderful. If I had to choose one to make it would be Debbie Olson’s frame. I love the use of the quilting stamps and the simplicity of the frame. Thanks PTI designers for creating all of these amazing gifts.
They’re all fabulous! I can already think of ways to adapt them for other occasions. Thank you for the detailed instructions for all of them.
This is a perfect set! I can’t wait for the release!
The feet on that tin are such a cute idea!
This is sooo pretty! Thanks for all the great ideas!
Ooh, I just love the little jewelry box. The instructions are perfect, as always. I think I’ll try my hand at one of those.
Thanks for all the GREAT ideas to personalize something special for our Mom’s! Love the jewelry box.
I definitely need to try Lisa’s coffee tumbler. That project looks terrific! Thanks for the opportunity to win 🙂
Amazing! as usual a great touch of simple elegance, as they say LESS IS MORE!
Love it and beautiful pictures of you and your mother…
Wow! I love all the projects! You ladies rock! The sentiments in the set are perfect! Thanks for a chance to win!
I loved all of the gifts. The design team is very talented and inspiring.
You ladies amaze me with the projects you come up with! Are you SURE that they’re as easy as you say they are? they look so professional! All of your mothers will love them! And I would love this stamp set. The sentiments are so lovely!
wow! that is lovely!
As always, I’m amazed at the creativity you guys have! The jewelry tin was fabulous…can’t wait to work with this set!
Oh please tell us that you will be selling the kits for that amazing bracelet. It would make this all that much perfect!
OH this is so beautiful and amazing this is would be prefect.. I am so sad I don’t have any pictures of my mom and myself when I was small..I do have a couple now when I was older and a mom myself. I have learned how much my mom really loves me and its taken a LONG time for me to really know that since we always use to bump heads but its amazing indeed and feel so blessed and I would love to be able to do something to show her this year I love this project you put the wheels to turn 🙂
Amazing! Your projects are always great and this one is right up there! I was running out of ideas for these tins as I have so many – thanks!
Karen U
Wow, that is absolutely stunning. You are talented on so many different levels, it is amazing. I have always wanted to make jewelry, and I love what you did!
Heidi
What a beautiful box!!! I know that my mom would love to get one.
Oh my love the colors!!! I wish I can make one for my mama!!!
Your creative projects never cease to amaze me! Every detail is so creative. Mother is a fabulous set; I love all the sentiments I’ve seen so far. Thanks for another great day of inspiration!
It is so hard to find the “perfect” stamp set for mother’s day cards. I love the sayings in this one.
Wow!!!! I’m definately making the jewelry box…but for my dd’s 9th birthday party…so fun for girls of all ages! And I love the tumbler that Lisa made…I just need the stamps to make it!!
I’m on my way out of town (Cabin) so I look forward to catching up on Monday!
The jewelry box is amazing! I’m always sooo impressed by your creativity. Thanks for the chance to win.
Absolutely beautiful gift and so very thoughtful 🙂
This looks like another great set! I can imagine making many projects with this set. Thank you, Nichole!!
I just love the jewelry box. Wow! Who knew you could make a simple tin look so gorgeous. Definitely trying this as a gift for a mom this year.
I love the thought that went into you gift! Lovely lovely lovely
That’s an awesome Mother’s Day gift!
Your jewelry box is awesome! Thanks for sharing.
I have enjoyed looking at all the samples. There are some really wonderful sentiments in this set. The beads/feet on the jewelry box are a stunning finishing touch to a beautiful project.
Wow, amazing project – i cannot wait to see the set in its entirety. Thanks for more genius ideas!
What lovely and heart-tugging gifts for our moms. Thanks for so many wonderful ideas!
Wow, so many favorites out of this challenge! I can see me using many of them this coming year for my Mom and my Mother-in-Law. Starting with my Mom’s birthday next weekend!
I LOVE what Dawn made—this is definitely in my price range at this time in my life and I think it will be treasured for years. I also love what Pine made—that she showed pictures of her and her mother at the same “places in life”—LOVE THAT. I may just do both of them—thanks so much for the ideas!
What a beautiful set you made for your mother…the design team is awesome! Thanks for such wonderful inspiration
I wish I was your Mom!! LOL! What a great gift….and the fabric paper.. cool! Thanks again for the inspiration.
Beautiful. You are so creative.
Can’t wait to see the complete set.
I will be making that jewelry box. It is beautiful. Thanks for sharing and the chance to win.
What a beautiful box – who would have thought to use beads for the legs? This is my favorite of all the projects today. Thanks for the chance to win!
Wow!!! Your project is my absolute favorite. I love the addition of the feet, and that fabric is beautiful. Just gorgeous!!!
WOW!! THIS IS AGREAT PROJECT…….CANT WAIT TO SEE MORE
All of the projects are beautiful! I’d love to try to make the jewelry box & the tumbler & the memory jar. What a wonderful set!
This is such a beatiful and honoring gift! You are so creative.
It is those little details, beyond the norm, that add value to the little things in life.
You have blessed me this day by sharing of yourself through your creativity.
Marilyn geneva1599@juno.com
WOW!!!! This is SOOO clever and just gorgeous! I love the cute legs on the tin..they just make it look very special!
Such a special little gift!
All of the gifts and stories were very touching. I especially love Lisa’s travel cup and your jewelry box. I made the gift tag tin at Christmas and love this new idea and plan on making a few. The little beads on the bottom are such a wonderful idea
This set is awesome! Can’t wait to see it all. I would love to own it. My mom would love the bracelet and would wear it proudly. Great idea but Nicole always has great and inspiring ideas! Thanks for the chance to win it.
WOW it is beautiful,your project is awesome – you always make everything look so easy!!!! The feet are a great added touch – would have never thought of that! Can’t wait to see it ALL!
This is the most wonderful and delightful gift for mom! I love it! How creative!!!
Just when I created the tags & insert for the nugget tin, you had to show us the jewelry box. Now I have to make another one!
Wow! Thanks so much to all the design team members for all the wonderful projects you have put together for us! I can’t wait to try some of them out! I think the ones that would be for my mom would be the jewelry box, a notebook/journal or the mug – now which one to do?? 🙂
PTI rocks! Thanks for all the inspiration that you give the rest of us!! 😀
I love the tin box !
The tin jewlry box is beautiful. I love the talents of all the ladies. They are all so creative. I love visiting this site and going through the designer’s sites and seeing their work. Thank you ladies for all your inspiring projects.
All the ideas of the PTI team are WONDERFUL!!! I absolutely love the product and sooo want more. The blog is awesome!
Thank you for giving us such great ideas. I have been thinking about a journaling jar and book for my mom. I would love to know some of the stories that she hasn’t told yet and in her own handwriting.What a treasure for years to come it would be.
Love, love, love Niki’s set!! Can’t wait to try!
The cute ‘feet’ are my favourite part of this amazing project. What a special set.
I really love Lisa coffee mug! There are really going to be a lot of happy mothers out there when they get these gifts!
Wow, that gift is amazing! Any mother would love to receive such a gift.
I love this jewelry box! I would love to try and make one. The fabric is so gorgeous!
I really like Heather’s “Then and Now” book. I would like to make one that has all of my sisters (3) and brother with photos of when we were young along side a more recent photo.
That is one of the most beautiful mothers day gift’s I have ever seen. Made me go all misty eyed.
A fantastically inspired idea!! wish I’d thought of it!! Lol.
Wow! Since I’m a beader too…I loved this idea! Thanks for another amazing inspiration!
I’d never have attempted this without your clear step-by-step directions – and it turned out SO BEAUTIFUL – TFS!
All the gifts are beautiful and so special. I think a mom would appreciate any of these gifts! I will make a card set for my mom – she loves using my handmade cards. And I’ll box it up in one of Lauren’s templates.
These are all such great projects. Now I have the difficult job of deciding which one to recreate for my mom.
A touching and inspiring set!
THanks!
oh my goodness, all these mother’s day gifts are amazing! i especially want to try lisa’s tumbler/mug, and michelle’s embellished notepad! this has definitely gotten my creative juices working!
Wow Nicole, your project is beautiful! Thanks for sharing!
I plan on making a small jewlery box like yours and then having a friend make a bracelet to put in the box as well. I just love this idea. The poem brought tears to my eyes…exactly how I feel about my mom.
WOW – I am so amazed by the wonderful creations everyone came up with!! It was so nice to see and read about the love everyone has for their mothers!!! My mother passed away 8 years ago and I still miss her everyday.
All of you PTI girls are FULL of talent! Thanks for all of your collective ideas.
I love Dawn’s memory jar and Michelle’s notebook. I’m going to make plans to try both.
I loved seeing all the projects, but I do have to say my favorite was the first one I saw; your Jewelry Box….I have a few tins and I know I am going to make a few of these this year. I love how you put the feet on on it!
I love all the ideas! You are all so talented.
Wow, what a beautiful gift set! You inspire me as always.
I LOVE your jewelry box idea! Holy cramoly! The idea for the feet on it blew me away. This is something i am definitely going to make. Thanks for the ideas!
I really like this sentiment: “I never knew the depth of your love until I became a parent myself”. It was pretty hard to choose – all of them are great!
I absolutely adore the jewelry box!! I wish I had half the talent of you Nicole (and the other designers too for that matter). Thanks for another opportunity to win a beautiful set.
Just beautiful, Nichole! Looking forward to seeing the whole set!!
Susan, aka Soozie4Him
Simply amazing!! The stamp set and sentiments are just terrific and the projects — wow!! You should also include “Kleenex” in the supply lists (to give to the recipients along with those amazing creations, of course)… 😉 Thanks so much for that FANTASTIC pdf download — how wonderfully kind and generous!
They’re all beautiful! I’m especially drawn to the mini jewelry box. Thank you!
Simply stunning, each gift is beautiful, the sentiments brought tears to my eyes. my mother is 83 years young and i live far from her i speak to her every day and never have stopped needed her. i can’t wait to honor her with a special mother’s day gift using this set
Wow! What a great variety of gifts. All of them are lovely, and all would work for more than Mother’s Day gifts. Thanks for sharing your hard work with us.
I would love to make the jewelry box out of the nugget tin. What a great idea!! Thanks for sharing your creativity with us.
What a beautiful and thoughtful gift! This is truly a gift a Mother would remember. Thank you for sharing you creative project and thank you for a chance to win that wonderful set of stamps.
Beautiful new set, Nichole. All of the sentiments touched me very much, as my Mother passed away over a decade ago. I love the all the projects, but I think your jewelery box really was ingenious, with it’s little jeweled feets and the lovely dividers. So sweet!
I love that you are celebrating moms
fabulous, as usual~
Oh Nicole yours winns for me it is sooooo beautiful! I cant wait to make one of these for myself! Lots of Love, Alyssa
Your jewelry box is over the top…absolutely gorgeous. Certainly a gift for your mom to treasure. Can’t wait to see the new releases.
I want to win!
The jewelry box is a great gift. I like to make jewelry and the poem and box make it extra special. Thanks for a great idea. Jill S
All the projects are wonderful. You have such a talented group of ladies on your team. I especially like Heather’s card and memory book. Thanks for providing us the instructions for all the projects.
I am so deeply moved by the tributes written by each of the design team about their moms. This stamp set is truly one of a kind – just like our moms.
What a beautiful jewelry box. I must make this. Thank you for all your inspiration!
Gorgeous jewelry box. All your design team members did a wonderful job on their mother’s day gift. Love reading all of your blogs.
I LOVE all the design team projects, but I especially plan on making Betsy and Nichole’s projects. They could be used for so many people and occasions. Thank you to everyone on the design team for sharing your time, talent, and inspiration again-you are all truly amazing individuals.
Beautiful Nichole!!! I loved Dawn’s project (well of course all of them but since I had to pick just one!)!!!!
Thanks for a chance to win Nichole!
What a lot of great gift ideas! Thank you for all the inspiration!
I think I will have my brothers and sister-in-laws, along with their children write special memories so that I can make a memory jar for my mother-in-law. I really like Nichole’s little book of her and her mom as well……….maybe that for my mother. And would it be sooooo…….. bad if I made the jewelry box for myself??? 😉
I loved Lisa’s travel mug. Those flowers are just so delicate and beautiful! Can’t wait to use them.
These were all great projects, and the stamp set is amazing! The project I’ll be working on first is the memory jar that Dawn created. My mom has Alzheimer’s, so this project has special importance to me. We’ve been trying to capture and share some of our favorite memories of time with my mom, so that my daughter has them to hold on to as grandma draws more into herself. The project is beautiful, and oh so meaningful!
What a beautiful project! I can’t wait for the 15th to see the new releases!
You are so creative!!! This is stunning!
WOW! such unique and gorgeous gifts! thanks for the inspiration!
So many great projects. I think that both the jewelry box you did and the quilt frame are something i will make. They would make good gifts for My Mom, and for others. Thanks for all the great ideas, as usual, from you and your design team.
I can’t decide which one I loved the best. You ladies just rock!
I just love this time of the month. The creativity you all share is just phenomenal. You inspire me and I appreciate the time and extraordinary effort by all the designers. Thank you all so much!
What a lovely idea.
absolutely stunning project! thanks for the inspiration!
Wow–all those little touches really make your projects special. I love the feet on this tin! Thanks for the chance to win the new set.
WOW!!! Your creativity blows me away. This set is beautiful.
I love Heather’s idea of the chipboard book. I’d love to dig up some mom & me photos and try to recreate it.
Great set and wonderful ideas from the design team. I love the mini album that Heather did. Can’t wait until the 15th.
Oh my gosh! This is beautiful! I was looking at your picture and thought…oh my gosh this would be so cute to use as for bridesmaid gifts! I love this thanks so much for the great idea! Now I just have to print it out and then try to make it before the big day (I have a little over a year!)
This is beautiful. It nearly brought tears to my eyes. I have such a WONDERFUL mother and she would be grateful to receive something so beautiful. I am now a mother myself and only hope to touch my son’s life the way my own mother has touched mine.
I thought Debbie’s paper quilt was simply lovely. I may have to try my hand at such a project. All of the ladies did an absolutely wonderful job and I can’t wait to get by hands on this set to see what I can do!
Everything is just beautiful and so I can imagine making several of these projects. My daughter is out of school at the moment and we are visiting my Mother right now!
I think a little “album” of photos from our visit would be just the thing!
Oh my – you are so creative! I love it as well as all the others! Hope I win!
how do you think of these fabulous ideas? You must be blessed with a creative gene. You work is beautiful..
I love dall the projects! Wow you ladies are incredible! You all offer me so much inspiration! Thanks!
R
Well, I’m not really sure which project I could really pull over. Your designers are just amazing. I really like Dawn’s jar of memories and Melissa’s gorgeous project. Melissa’s presentation is perfect for my own mother who collects tea pots. I may just build on Melissa’s project! What a wonderful new set!
This was all sooo wonderful to page through. Thank you for organizing all of this for us. Spectacular job, Nichole.
I would love to do the special memories idea of Dawn’s. My mom would really love that. She is our family rock and she needs to know all the ways she has encouraged, stood by, and loved us. I will need to get on that one soon.
Thanks again.
So clever!! The soft colors and sentiments, stitching and button – truly lovely!! Thanks for the inspiration!
Amazing! Love the feet on the tin. I’ll have to get my sister who makes jewelry to help with that.
I really loved the jewelry box idea and I could see myself making something similiar. Can’t wait for this set :).
beautiful set and gorgeous project! love the “never knew the depth of your love until I became a parent myself” quote!
What beautiful creations! Would love to try Dawn’s scroll idea and I love your jewelry box, how adorable!
When I think of how dear my mother is to me, I thank God above for all the special times we share. This set will certainly help a lot of daughters convey that very love they feel for their dear mothers. Love this set! The jewelry box and bracelet idea are simply stunning!
I love how you totally altered the tin, especially the neat idea of adding beads as feet; BRILLIANT 🙂 And that is something my Mom would adore and forever admire.
Thank you for sharing that creation ~ one in a million !
I loved your project, Nichole! What a great idea.
I also loved Lisa Johnson’s altered stainless steel travel mug. That is definitely something I would make. I’ve made one for myself, but I could definitely see myself making them for the coffee and tea drinkers in my life.
Thanks for a chance to win!
Every project is just so beautiful but your jewelry box out of the tin just takes the cake! Love the beaded feet!
Amazing!! loving the word of the set!
This is so incredible!! Gorgeous, thoughtful, stunning!!
My mom would love Mish’s project, so that’s the one that I’m going to make! 🙂
This jewelry box is an awesome project…..thank you so much for a gift idea that is so personalized!!
I love it all. This is a great gift idea. Thanks for the chance to win.
What a beautiful project! I love the included photos on the inside and meaning of all the beads on the bracelet. Gorgeous!
Just love this it is so beautiful. Mothers day in the Uk is next Sunday and my mum lives over 4000 miles away so I have had to send her a card in gift in January – but I would love to try yours and give it to her a litte later. Beautiful xx
This is so amazing! I love hte little legs on the bottom – they really kick it up a notch!
Can’t wait to see the full set!
Wow, super fabulous! Love the colors, the sentiment. The little beaded feet and pretty metal embellishment just add so much.

You are absolutely inspiring! This is beautiful, and would make a treasured gift for any mother. Thank you for sharing!
They’re all awesome! I will definitely be doing the jewelry box and the memories jar! Thanks for sharing all this wonderful talent.
I soooo love all the projects created by the design team. I do have to say that Lisa Johnson’s card and travel tumbler are my absolute fave. I can’t wait to try that one.
If I have to pick just one it would be Debbie Olson’s quilt ensemble–I just love quilts.
You never cease to amaze me!
Wow this is really a stunner! I am dying to make one for my Mom! Thanks for all the great ideas!
I love the Mother’s day set! I will definitly try and make the tin jewelry box.
What an awesome set! Just gorgeous, Nichole!
You have done a wonderful job….love the stamp set…as always another great one…
This is just beautiful Nichole – I’m sure your mom will just love it! The stamps in this set are wonderful to honor all mothers!
I love this! The gifts are amazing and so much fun. Thanks
The jewelry box you made is something I will do for my Mom!! Love it!! Thank for all the inspiration!!
My favorite mother’s day project was the shadow box on Lauren Meader’s Blog. I loved the primas and butterfly and the pic with the sentiment. I love your project too! Its so beautiful and elegant. I love the poem and bracelet. Brillant idea!
I’m swooning over this project! and thanks for the download! I always print out all the projects anyway and put them in my PTI binder for future reference! this puts them all in one place for me!
Nichole, I’m a Stampin’ Up! demonstrator and just love your work. But this jewerly box and poem with braclet just took my breath away. I wanted to get permission to copy your project, I’d love to do a Mother’s Day class and this would be the perfect project. Please email me and let me know if this would be o.k. first. Thanks for sharing. Kim
The stories these ladies wrote about their mothers brought tears to my eyes. Sharing something personal is why many of us are so passionate about stamping…it allows us non-artists (me) a chance to give something beautiful.
LOVE it! So many great ideas for Mother’s Day.
Oh I love this so much!!! Too bad my father made a jewelry box last year for her!
All the gifts are amazing and truely from the heart! I think I’m going to make the jewelry box for my Mom, she travels a lot and it would be the perfect size for her to take a piece of us with her, as I’m SURE she misses us so much LOL!
Thank you so much for sharing all your ideas!!

Love your jewelry box. This looks like
another “must have” set.
The bracelet is lovely and so meaningful!
Beautiful! What talent you have. There is not a woman out there that would not love to receive such a gift.
I love the colors you used in your project. I have so many tins sitting in my drawer, now I have something to use it for. Thanks again for another great idea.
Love it. Awesome idea. I’m sure your mom will love it.
I think any Mother loves a hand made gift more than the boughten one and this is gorgeous! I think I will have my daughter make it with me for my Mom and drop alot of hints! Can’t wait to see the mother set!
The jewellery box is amazing – I love it. And the picture frames, statationary sets and mini albums – all lovely
