Sweet Treat cups

I know I am jumping the gun a bit on SPRING.......but this WINTER is on my last nerve!  How about you?  I have a feeling the Squirrels are ready for a Break too, so today this Sweet Squirrel is giving us hope that Spring is around the corner!

Circles Framelits made this layering stack.  Granny Apple Green, Soft Seafoam, Blushing Bride and the Whisper White Squirrel layer stamped in Stazon Black and colored with Stampin' Write markers.

These Sweet Treat cups are ADORABLE and Food Safe!!  Great for a little Treat for all  your Loved ones.  I prepped 10 of these as the last Uptown Market.  I like to stay busy and decided this was an easy project to work on.  Stampin' Up provided us a template to trace and cut the paper to fit the cup. 

I will be attaching the template to my March Newsletter.  If you want one NOW, leave me a comment.

12 X 12 paper is optimum, but I used 6 X 6, butted the sheets together and traced the Template.  I used Tombow Adhesive to glue on the paper.  Love the soft Spring colors in this paper!  Perfect for Spring, Easter, St. Pats, Mother's Day, Baby Showers, Birthdays.......on and on.  Choose some paper and let your imagination run wild!

And this stamp set................cuteness overload!

Let it Ride Blended

Today's card features the running Horse stamped in Momento Black ink and colored with Stampin' Blends.  I used the Crumb Cake Light and Dark, Soft Suede Light and Dark.  Pines stamped in Shaded Spruce.

I used the Light Crumb Cake Blend to added shading under the Trees and ground.  Matted on a Crumb Cake layer and Shaded Spruce card base.  Love all the encouraging sentiments in this stamp set. 
We can ALL need some encouragement!  #makeacardsendacard  Did you know this hastag has tons of card samples?  Check it out.......and MAKE a card and SEND a card this week, you will make someone very HAPPY!!

Tip of the Day.......when you add a layer between the card base and stamped images......cut out a circle, oval, rectangle for your next project.......no one will be able to see your secret!  This habit will help you use your card stock wisely!

I'm a Little Tea Pot........

I always loved this song as a child, we were brought up on Coffee, were not allowed to drink it until we were 16 and by then I liked the smell, hated the taste!  Tea was for SUMMER........Ice Tea which I drank often.  Now I drink Hot Green Tea and Hibiscus Tea every day.  LOVE is a warm cup of Tea!

I started with a Blueberry Bushel card base and the same Garden Impressions designer paper.  A Mint Macaron Tea cup with the Sentiment stamped on the cup.  Look at the detail on this Lace embossing folder, reminds me of one of my Grandmother's tablecloths!  Perfect for a Tea Party.

And I added a strip of the Designer paper on the inside.....

Tea Time and Tea Together video

This Bundle is another one that will most likely sell out before the Catalog ends AND you can EARN the Framelits for FREE with a $100 Purchase during Sale-a-bration!  Today's card uses the Country Floral embossing folder featured yesterday on Whisper White.

I have been wanting to use the Garden Impressions paper stack and these patterns SCREAM Tea Cups and Tea Pots!  You could even cut out a solid for the saucer and do a little fussy cutting on the cup and pop up for some dimension.  Mint Macaron card base and Blueberry Bushel ribbon.

I layered Circle punches in Mint Macaron and Blueberry Bushel for the sentiment.  Hot Tea is needed these days to survive this crazy weather!  Stay tuned for more Tea Time and check out Chad in the video.

Chad is my DDM and I was so lucky to meet him last August for lunch!
