love

Here is a card that isn't just for Valentine's Day.  You could use it for wedding, anniversary, just because, etc.

I did use the "Seasonally Scattered" stamp set from the holiday catalog which will no longer be available after January 5th (or while supplies last) so get it now if you want it.  This is a great set which has "merry" with snowflakes and "thanks" with leaves.  I also used the large silver sequins from the Frosty Sequins in the holiday catalog.

The items used from the annual catalog are Kinda Eclectic, Melon Mambo & Rich Razzleberry inks, Melon Mambo & Pink Pirouette cardstock, Subtles DSP, Chalk Talk & Deco Label framelits, and basic rhinestones.  I colored the rhinestones with Pink Pirouette Blendabilities which are being released in the Occasions catalog.

be the star

Today I have a good motivational/woo hoo! card for you.  This is a very easy one layer card to create.

I used the "Be the Star" stamp set with my favorite color .... blue!  I used Soft Sky, Marina Mist, and Night of Navy inks on Whisper White cardstock with basic jewels.

another sneak peek for you

I have another Occasions catalog sneak peek for you.  Yaaaaay!

This floral branch is from the "Indescribable Gift" stamp set and the sentiment is from the "Moon Lake" stamp set.  There are 4 new colors for Blendabilities and I used 2 of them here ... Pink Pirouette and Wild Wasabi.

The items I used from the annual catalog are Crumb Cake & Naturals White cardstock, Memento black ink pad, Crumb Cake Blendabilities, and basic pearls.

Occasions 2015 Sneak Peeks

I received my preorder and created a couple of cards to share with you.

The "sneak peek" products on this card are the "Big on You" stamp set, Stacked with Love designer washi tape, and sequins from the Bermuda Bay sequin trim.  I also used the Hearts & Stars decorative masks, the Encore metallic gold stamp pad, Whisper White cardstock and the Memento black stamp pad from the annual catalog.

This card's "sneak peeks" are the "Crazy about You" stamp set and the Stacked with Love DSP stack.   The flower was stamped 3 times and fussy cut to layer.  I used Calypso Coral cardstock and Crisp Cantaloupe & Calypso Coral inks from the annual catalog.

gift tags in fry boxes

Here are some gift tags in decorated fry boxes that I made for the craft fair that was on November 22nd.  There were 6 tags inside each fry box.  I tied one on the outside to showcase what the tags looked like inside.  These were a lot of fun to make and were quick & easy too.

craft fair goodies

These are a few more items I made for the craft fair that was on November 22nd.

The first one is a hot cocoa/candy cane holder.  The next 3 are Hershey's bar/gift card holders.  The tins are filled with Hershey's nuggets wrapped in DSP.

money holders

These are money holders I created for the craft fair I was in on November 22nd.  I used the Bright & Beautiful stamp set along with some of the All is Calm washi tape for the Soft Sky and Night of Navy holders.  For the Cherry Cobbler and Very Vanilla holders I used the Ornamental Pine stamp set.  I embellished the holders with our basic rhinestones and basic pearls.

I'm still here

Hello All!
I know it's been a long while since I last posted but you know how life goes sometimes.
I have been busy this last couple of weeks working on items to sell at my first ever craft/vendor fair which is tomorrow.  I'm nervous, anxious, excited, mind-boggled ... I just hope I have enough product to interest the customers and that I remembered everything.  I figure you need to jump in and see if you sink or swim.  :)
I will be sharing my projects with you soon!
Thanks for stopping by!

with sympathy

Have I mentioned how much I don't like making sympathy cards?  I just don't like the reason behind them.  With that being said, I made this card for a friend whose mom just passed away.

I ended up with a shadow when I stamped the inside so I decided to cover it up.

mr & mrs

Happy World Cardmaking Day!!

This will be the only card I'm making today as it's for a very special occasion.  Remember the party favors & thank you cards I shared in August?  The special day is here!!  Our beautiful niece is getting married later today and I can't wait to see her!

I took the "you & me" stamp from Perfect Pennants and changed it up to make it what I wanted it to be.  I used the "Cheers to love, laughter, and happily ever after" stamp on the inside in Night of Navy.  I'm pretty darn happy with the way this card turned out.
