Easter Treat...

We did a Easter dinner at my house on Sunday and I wanted to have a favor for the adults. The kids got to do an egg hunt...and the adults need a treat too...right?!?! Anyway...just want to share the quick treat I made...
I took one of the medium glassine envelopes and put a YUMMY Reeses Egg in it. Then just wrapped some Designer Series Paper around and decorated. Easy and fun!!!!

Just a close up of this SUPER fun chick...

One Sheet Wonder and a Sneak Peek!!! cont...

Here are the final 5 cards I did using the one sheet of stamped cardstock! Seriously....it was quite fun to do! You should try it out! :)

Thanks for visiting! Hope you enjoy!!!

One Sheet Wonder and a Sneak Peek!!!

I'm ALIVE! I promise! Geez....sorry it's been so long since I've posted! I have been doing some stamping...but it's stuff I can't really show right now. I will as soon as I can. :)

I do have something fun to show you today, however! Have you ever heard of a "One Sheet Wonder"? If you haven't...I'll explain it. :) Basically...you take one sheet of cardstock and just stamp it all over in whatever stamps/colors that you want. Then you cut it up in different sizes and make a bunch of projects or cards with it.

I actually have never done one of these until recently. This is the first one I did. AND it's using a NEW STAMP SET that will be in the SUMMER MINI!!!! It's called "Elements of Style" and it is wonderful! Anyway....I made 10 cards with just a few sheets of cardstock and some ribbon! I will share the first 5 cards with you today and then I will share the second set of 5 tomorrow! Hope you enjoy!!!

The colors I used are Kraft, Rose Red, and Bordering Blue. Then again...all the stamping is done with an UPCOMING set called "Elements of Style".

Hope you enjoy! Thanks for visiting!!!

Shoebox Swap Cards Continued...

I still haven't showed you all the swaps we made a few weekends ago. Seriously...too much fun! Here are a few more...

I love the use of Designer Series Paper on this! Both of these patterns are from the "Sweet Pea" Pack in the current Mini...
And then look at that fun flower...

To make that flower you just punch out two Scallop Circles. Then crumple them (or use your crimper to crimp them a few times) until you can see the paper start to come apart. Then you just carefully pull the layers apart. We did this twice...so you have a total of 4 layers. Then just adhere them all together and add some beads in the middle! TOO CUTE!!!

Love this vintage card! I LOVE this stamp set and have used it quite a bit. The coordinating wheel is so fabulous with it as well!

And look at this cute cupcake card. Love that saying as well..."the more candles the bigger the wish!" It's perfect as I get older and older every day! :)

Hope you enjoy! Thanks for visiting!

Hanging Photo Decor Class...

How much fun!!! And yes...that is my darling daughter front and center in that photo. What is this? You might ask?!??! It is a chipboard hanging display board with EIGHT removable pages to change for each season. Each page is attached with Velcro...so it will be easy to decorate for many years to come!!!!

How much fun is this?!?! I love that accent on the bottom of "mom"...

It is done with the Polka Dot stamp set that is in the very back of the Mini catalog. Then one of those AMAZING epoxy brad is right in the middle of it.

Love these monkey's...

Love the DSP (from the Sweet Pea paper pack in the Mini) and can I say again....LOVE this monkey! :)

Here comes that monkey again. :) With all his friends...

Seriously...love this! Too much fun! And I love the white background piece. You just crumple it up into a ball and then smooth it out and adhere. What a fun accent that makes! Here is a close-up...

I hope you enjoy! Thanks for visiting!!!

It's A Birthday Party...

One of the things I have been busy with lately is helping to plan a birthday party. In my church...we have a woman's organization called the Relief Society. Every March we plan a big birthday party to celebrate the establishment of this organization and all the women involved. This year I was on the committee to plan this event. Usually....people do a flyer to invite people but OF COURSE that wouldn't work if I had a say in it. :) I insisted we made a handmade invitation. :) Is there any other way?! :) I kept them simple because we had to make 100 of them. Here is what we ended up doing...
How much fun is this?! The first one I did was a bit more involved and I like a bit better. But I'm really happy with how they turned out. The flower is on a belly band. So you just slide that off and then this is how the card opens to reveal the information on the inside...

I also made some name tags for the event. I kept these really simple since obviously they will just be thrown out. Oh....side note...we decorated the tables (we were having a big dinner) by seasons. Everyone sat at whatever season their birthday was in. So we had Winter, Spring, Summer and Fall. And then when they got there they picked a name tag based on their birthday season...

I did spritzed all of them with some Shimmer Spray. Gotta love that stuff! :) Hard to catch but hopefully you can see it in this photo...

I also made some favors for the table. Again....in keeping with the seasons...I made some for each season. Here is the winter one...

I used mostly retired paper for them all. And the stamp set I used on the treats and the name tags is "Best Wishes and More". I LOVE that set. Here are the treats for all the seasons...

There were different patterns of paper used....but here's a sampling.

Hope you enjoy! Thanks for visiting!

Shoebox Swap Cards...

The other weekend I went to a shoebox swap that was SO FABULOUS!!!! Now what is a shoebox swap? I know I've explained this before...but everyone that participates brings a card for everyone to make. You bring all the supplies, tools, etc...and you go around and make everyone's cards. It's so much fun! And look at just a FEW of the fun cards we made that night...
Now what is this stamp set?!? Well it is a SNEAK PEEK of one that is coming out in the NEW SUMMER MINI! Isn't it SO MUCH FUN! I'm going to be showing you some other fun samples with this set soon. :) And look at that fun glitter...

Then look at this fun Easter card. Seriously....can you ever get enough of that DARLING Chocolate Bunny?!?! LOVE her!!! :)

And look at this fun one! I love the color combo!!!! I think this card is so great...

It would be so easy to change up to any color combo too. Black, White, and Melon Mambo by chance?! :) (Yes...I've been dying to try it with that color combo since I made this one. :)

Anyway...hope you enjoy! I'll share some more of the cards we made later!!! Thanks for visiting!!!

March Club Project...

I shared the card we made at club this month yesterday, so sharing the project we made today. :) I LOVE this little Easter basket. It was made with four envelopes we cut out using the Big Shot and the Scallop Envelope die. You could make the even bigger by just adding more envelopes. Too much fun!!! And these would be so easy to change out for any occasion that you needed them. Here is the basket...

I LOVE this chick-a-dee! Too cute. He's from the "A Good Egg" stamp set and just too much fun. The basket is made with So Saffron Cardstock and then Tea Party Designer Series Paper. Then the "happy easter" is on Pretty in Pink cardstock. And the fabulous ribbon is the Pretty in Pink Satin ribbon that is in the Mini catalog. Then we crimped and crumpled up some Certainly Celery cardstock for the grass for the inside. Here is the picture of that...

The OF COURSE that egg needed some glitter. I LOVE the look of the glitter on Whisper White cards stock. Here is a close-up of that...

And then finally....that fabulous ribbon handle. We attached it with some of the Jumbo White brads. Love these too. :) Here is that close-up picture...

Let me know if you have any questions! Oh...making the basket was really easy. We just cut out four of the envelopes. Then you will have two shorter side flaps. Well just cut one of them off and adhere them together using the other flap. The adhere the bottom down and you have your basket. I also cut a piece of cardstock for the inside bottom....just makes it a bit more sturdy.

Hope you enjoy! Thanks for visiting!!!
