Be My Valentine

Hello! I know Valentine's Day was last week, but I wanted to share one more card with you guys. This is the card that I made for my husband. I went clean and simple this year and I wanted to use one of my fave stamping techniques. I love the rock 'n roll technique. It's so much fun :)
I added two hearts on the card using the Full Heart Punch (119883) - a blue one and a pink one - one heart for me and one heart for my husband. hehe. And I framed each heart using one of the embossing folders from the Designer Frames Folders set (123130).
I also used some of the Tea for Two Designer Series Paper (129311). I'm telling you, it's one of my new favorite and go-to DSP :)
Thanks for stopping by and have a great day!

From My Husband :)

Hey everyone! Today, I'd like to share with you the Valentine's Day card that my husband made for me this year and of course the cute little gift that he surprised me with. We said no gifts this year, but he still surprised me with something :)
So, my husband totally went non-traditional this year. Can you tell? hehehe. No lovey dovey hearts... no roses or flowers... just one of my favorite baseball players. And the cutest part... Ben actually went into my craft room and grabbed what he needed to make this hand made card :) He even made an easel so that I can display it in my cube at work! How thoughtful, right?! hehe.
And here is the little something that he surprised me with! So, there's a mushy lovey dovey heart with the oh so adorable Hello Kitty! Isn't she so pretty?!?!?! hehe. I love it! And I love the mushy message that Ben wrote inside my card :) Made me cry a bit (sniff sniff). I so heart that guy!!
Thanks for stopping by and enjoy your day :)

Happy Valentine's Day!

Hello everyone! Here's another MDS2 page that I made to print and frame. I love paper and I love prints and I love how they look in frames on the wall :)
And I love how MDS2 has so many lovely templates that you can use for so many different types of projects and I love how the possibilities are endless because you can change up certain elements of a template if you like. It's totally up to you! Kinda like what I did with this template. I chose the template, changed the DSP to the lovely Tea for Two Designer Series Paper, added several butterfly punches, and changed up the colors to match the DSP. Quick, easy and fun!!

Happy Valentine's Day everyone! Enjoy this day with loved ones and may the rest of the year be filled with love and happiness, too :)

Valentine's Day Treats

Hi everyone! Today, I'd like to share a little treat that my friend Chan made for us gals who went to Niki's Craftsomniacs girl's night. She's so sweet! And she's super creative, too! Hop on over to Two Rosie Cheeks to check out her projects.
Isn't this treat so cute?!?! Click here to check out Chan's treats and I believe she has a link to a tutorial if you're interested in creating these "Hershey Kisses" treats :)
And look what we found on the inside of the treat! A Ghirardelli Square chocolate. Even though I won't enjoy it, I know my husband will ;)
Thanks for stopping by and have a great day!!

More Valentine's Day cards

Hello! So, I liked the cards that we made for Josh's teachers so much I totally cased them! hehe. I just changed up the colors, the DSP and the embossing folder. I finished them a bit early this year and I couldn't wait until Thursday to hand them out so my friends at work got their cards yesterday :)
For the cardstock, I decided to go with Pool Party and for the DSP, I decided to go with some Sweet Shop Specialty Designer Series Paper (125408) which can be found in the Clearance Rack for a great price! I also used the hearts folder from the Adorning Accents Textured Impressions Embossing Folders set (125601).
 And on the inside of the card, the "happy valentine's day" sentiment is from the Teeny Tiny Wishes stamp set (Clear 127802, Wood 115370). I'm telling you, that stamp set is one of my faves because of all of the different sentiments that can be used for so many different projects.
 Thanks for stopping by and have a great day :)

Valentine's Day Cards

Hello! With Valentine's Day just around the corner, there are so many heart day projects that need to be made. I just finished making 300 tags and 50 cards for my brother's music program at his school. They have a fundraiser every year for the choir and music kids where they sell balloons and singing telegrams for Valentine's Day. Such a cute idea! And I love to help out every year :)
Unfortunately, I did not get any pictures of those projects that I helped out with but here are the cards that I helped make for my nephew's teachers. Joshua will of course write a very special message on the inside of each card, with the help of his mommy of course ;)
 
For these cards, I used the Full Heart Punch (119883), the Perfect Polka Dots embossing folder (117335), one of the folders from the Needlepoint Border Textured Impressions Embossing Folders set (129383) and a Sweetheart Treat Cup (120435). These Sweetheart Treat Cups can be found in the Clearance Rack. Click here to check out all the other great deals.
I hope Josh's teachers like their cards and I hope they enjoy their Valentine's Day!

Thanks for stopping by and have a great day :)

Valentine Note Cards

Hello everyone! Happy Friday!! Last night I got to hang out with my stamping pals at Niki's Thursday night class. Her classes are one of the things that I look forward to all week :) Even though I did make it to class, I was not feeling too well so I didn't get crafty with the gals. Plus, I didn't want to risk getting anyone sick! So, I sat at the corner of the table and just listened and hung out.
There were 8 adorable little note cards that we got to make and today, I wanted to share four of them with you. Come back and visit tomorrow to check out the rest!
These note cards are so super cute and so fun to make! And I love the color combos on each of them.

Thanks for stopping by and have a wonderful day :)

L O V E

Hello! Here is another fun card that we got to make at our Craftsomniac's girls night out at Niki's house.  My friend and upline Nicole brought this card as one of her shoebox projects. I didn't get a real good picture of the card so hop on over to teehee4two to check out her card and her sister Andrea's version too.
I have the Morning Post Alphabet stamp set (Clear 126592, Wood 126590) and I'm always looking for some inspiration for projects and this card is great! And I really like how she used the Peekaboo Frames Bigz L die (124587) for the letter "O" because there's a little surprise hiding behind the little flap :)

Thanks for stopping by and enjoy your day!
