Petite Purse

Hello everyone! Today I'd like to share a project that the ladies got to make in my March stamping class. I mixed this class up a bit with several cards and a couple 3-D projects. This 3-D project was a hit and was so fun and easy to make!

I used the Petite Purse Bigz L die (125606) and cut out several pieces using some Everyday Enchantment Designer Series Paper (126154), which you can find in the Clearance Rack. Click here to check it out and click here to check out all the other great deals.

After putting the purse together, we used the Itty Bitty Shapes Punch Pack (118309) and a Rhinestone Basic Jewel (119246) to add an embellishment on the flap of the purse. Wouldn't these purses make such adorable party favors?!?!

There were several different purses all around since they got to choose which side of the DSP they wanted the purse to be.

Stay tuned for all the other projects from last month's class :)

Thanks for stopping by and have a great day!

Easter Cards

Hey everyone! I know Easter was awhile ago, but I haven't had a chance to post the cards that we gave to our families when we spent Easter Sunday with them. So, I wanted to share them with you guys today. For the colors, I went with Crumb Cake, Lucky Limeade and Wisteria Wonder.

This year, I decided to go with a somewhat interactive card. On the front of the card, I used the Blossom punch (125603) to make the flower, the bitty flower punch from the Itty Bitty Shapes Punch Pack (118309) to create little flowers and the Bitty Butterfly punch (129406) to add to the middle of the flower.

When you pull the card open, the flower flips over and on the back, which is the inside of the card, is the Easter Wishes sentiment. I also stamped butterflies on the envelope for fun. hehe.

And of course, I added more itty bitty flowers on the inside of the card :) The space was a little small, but we also added our own personal message along with the stamped sentiment.

Thanks for stopping by and have a great day!

Happy Birthday Card

Hello! Here is a birthday card that I made for a friend who celebrated his birthday yesterday. My hubby and I were able to send it out earlier this week and we hope that his birthday card gets to him on time and finds him well!

I used the Woodgrain Textured Impressions Embossing Folder (127821) to add some texture to the card. And I also had a bit of fun with some banners on this card. Can you tell? hehe. I just love banners. Once I got started cutting them out, I just couldn't stop! But I do like how the card turned out :)

Happy Birthday Card

Hey everyone! Here is a birthday card that I made for my friend who's special day is today :) When I thought about making her card, I knew that I wanted to use some framelits and a matching stamp set. I love how Stampin' Up! creates products that coordinate so well together!

When I saw the Secret Garden Bundle (Clear 131099, Wood 131100) in the Spring Catalog, I knew I just HAD to get it! You can also buy them separately. You can get just the Secret Garden Framelits Dies (129372) or just the Secret Garden stamp set (Clear 129144, Wood 129141).

After stamping and cutting out the flowers and leaves with the framelits, I colored the flowers using my Stampin' Write markers then stacked everything together to form this bouquet on the front of the card. I also used the Perfect Polka Dots Folder (117335) to add some texture behind the bouquet of flowers.

Thanks for stopping by and have a wonderful day :)

Wish Big

Hi! So, my friend who celebrated her birthday last week tried to be sneaky and not tell anyone! That does not work with our group of gals at work!! She so tried to sneak in with balloons and a lovely flower cake that was delivered to her but I caught her trying to sneak by as I was walking out of my cube, silly girl! Oh, if you missed the flower cake that I posted yesterday, click here to check it out. It's super adorable!! But anyhoo, since she tried to be all covert about her birthday, her birthday card was a day late.

I love glimmer paper and I just had to use some for this cupcake that I made for her card.

The "wish BIG" sentiment is from the Word Play stamp set (Clear 120651, Wood 120308) and I used a couple of the layered dies from the Labels Collection Framelits (125598).

Thanks for stopping by and have a wonderful day :)

Flower Cake

Hi! My friend celebrated her birthday last week and she had this lovely cake delivered to her at work. It's so pretty! I love the idea of using fresh flowers to make a birthday cake! I am so going to have to try this one out!! Look how cute it turned out :) Love it! hehe.

Thanks for stopping by and have a great day :)

Thoughts of You

Hello everyone! Today, I want to share a card that was made for someone special at work. She has been out of the office for awhile and we wanted to let her know that we were all thinking of her and we are so excited to have her back in the office. We sure did miss her!!!!

I had fun making these rosettes using some of the Vanilla 5/8" Flower Trim (126869). I added a butterfly that I punched out using the Bitty Butterfly punch (129406) on each rosette and on the butterflies, I added some Pearl Basic Jewels (119247).

For the layered butterflies, I punched them out using the Elegant Butterfly punch (127526) and the Bitty Butterfly punch (129406). I also added a Large Rhinestone Basic Jewel (129324) on each layered butterfly.

The "Thoughts of You" sentiment is from the Loving Thoughts stamp set (Clear 125845, Wood 125843). The butterfly is from the Creative Elements stamp set (Clear 122647, Wood 122645). And oh look, surprise-surprise.... itty bitty flowers from the Itty Bitty Shapes Punch Pack (118309) with Rhinestone Basic Jewels (119246). hehe.

And for those of you who like playing April Fool's jokes... have fun and be careful.. some jokes may back fire or have some unforeseen consequences ;) hehehehe.

Thanks for stopping by and enjoy your day!
