Painted Poppies

This card was the Make & Take at my Open House.  This paper is GORGEOUS and you can buy the entire Suite of products starting January 3rd.



Rich Razzleberry card base, Designer paper, Sentiment from the Matching set Peaceful Moments. And these beautiful Poppy Sequins!  Gold, Clear, Black and 2 shades of Poppy Parade!




I used a Die from the Painted Labels set and the Stamparatus for perfect alignment.  LOOK how easy it is to get your sentiments straight when you make a template for your Frames.  Stash these templates in the stamp case for the next card.  You'll be glad you did!


Save a template and use your magnet to hold in place.  Position your stamp in the opening and pickup with your plate.



Slip in your label and stamp.  Grid paper and the Grid on the plate makes this so easy for Straight perfect sentiments every time!!

Birthday Bonanza Party

My Cheesecakes fell again....not sure what I am doing wrong, but they taste good!  SO today I am showing an idea for some Party Favors.  I suggest CUPCAKES so you can add some nice fluffy frosting!! And look at these adorable treat bags you can fill with goodies for the little ones at the Party.


I used toothpicks and dimensionals to hold the animals to the toothpicks.  Stamp 1 and then cut a solid color for the Back. 


The Birthday Bonanza Suite can be purchased starting January 3rd!

Merry Christmas

Merry Christmas everyone!! May your Day be Blessed!!

I should have worked with this Bundle sooner, it is so Beautiful and the Designer Paper has so much Sparkle!!  I used a Night of Navy mat embossed with the Subtle 3D folder.  Punched Ornaments in 3 Patterns and added some Gold Thread for hangers.



I stamped the Sentiment in Pretty Peacock and backed with a Gold Foil stitched Frame.   This Old Olive/Pretty Peacock reversible ribbon ties the Ornaments together.  Stars are scattered over the card.


I am going to spend the day making cards, using up some of these supplies I have out before I pack them up for the year.

Bag it!

How is your Holiday shopping going....down to the wire....no time to wrap?  BAG IT!  You can whip up a gift bag in no time with 2 12X12 pieces of paper.  Or a small bag perfect for a Gift Card with 6X6.  And use the extra bits to make a matching card.


The paper down middle is cut from the corners of the bag,  I embossed Ornaments in Gold and punched with the Matching punch.  Swirled embossing folder on Golf foil and Pretty Peacock sentiment.



I used the Wink of Stella and Pretty Peacock ink to shade the ornaments and added some retired ribbon and twine.



Here is a Beautiful Gift Bag made for a Dear Friend I met for dinner last night.  She is Sparkly so this Brightly Gleaming Designer paper is perfect for her.  Sadly this is my first go with this paper and the matching Bundle.  More to come with this set tomorrow and it is still available to purchase.  Get a jump on next year!
