Spiral Flower Die

Spiral flower die

I played with some fun new things from the new Occasions catalog! First, I lOVE this new DSP paper stack called Fresh Prints. I love these patterns and colors, and this is my favorite from the pack, I think (today anyway)!

This is the first flower I have made with the new Spiral Flower Die. These are so easy to make! Just run them through the Big Shot and then roll them into a flower. So much fun! I unmounted the wheel from the Clearance Rack and that gave me a bunch of cool Valentine sentiments. Easy Peasy.

Thanks for dropping by today!

A Little Something

I know. Bad blogger. Bad. Blogger. I have no excuse. Just a confession. I have fallen madly in love and just couldn’t tear myself away from my new dearest. No need to tell my husband. He is smitten as well. Meet Pyper Eden. She insists on being held all the time and I am happy to oblige her. Being a Nana is the best thing in the whole world.

pyper

Since mommy is able to drive and back on her feet, I guess it is time to get back into a routine and stop neglecting all of my other duties.

I have a few things to share, even though it is very difficult for me to get into creative mode with so many things to distract me. Since I haven’t taken any photo’s yet, I’ll share some “extra” projects that haven’t made it to the blog yet.

Hearts a Flutter

This is a lollipop cover. I’ll try to put together a tutorial for these with the dimensions. They are really easy. I will probably make some version of these for Aubrey’s school party this year. Quick and fun. I used the Hearts A Flutter set and framelit for this one and the More Amore from last years Spring Catalog. As luck would have it, this paper is now on the clearance rack and very inexpensive! There are some really great prints in this pack and some fun laser cut heart doilies. You can check it out at the link below.

Thanks for stopping by!

Hearts a Flutter Banner and Beautiful Wings

Hearts a flutter

I think I reached for all of my favorite things when I was creating this card. I just can’t get enough of Hearts a Flutter and this new Honeycomb embossing folder. Primrose Petals and any blue (this one is Pool Party) seems to be my current color addiction. Obviously I could not be any more in LOVE with this More Amore DSP. Sorry, pun intended. It is necessary, sometimes, to keep all those other voices in my head entertained!

This was just basic die cutting and the only thing stamped was the sentiment, but I have a little tip for you. {TIP} To get the hexagon shapes, just run a piece of DSP through the Big Shot in the Honeycomb EF and then snip out the little inserts along the score lines! Fun stuff!!

Thanks for stopping by!

Hearts A Flutter

Hearts a Flutter

Here is a sweet and simple valentine, created using the Hearts a Flutter set from the Spring Mini. Love that lacy heart stamp. I used a small strip of my Sweet Shop DSP (that is still on sale in the Clearance rack for $2.59. How FAB is that!?) The ribbon is from the Sale-a-bration Sycamore Street Ribbon and Button Pack. It is so nice to work with. I am hoarding this stuff.

Thanks for looking!

That’s the Ticket

That's the Ticket

When I started this card, I planned to use the Hearts a Flutter set, but I started playing with the More Amore DSP and it took on a life of it’s own. The heart is snipped from one of the laser-cut sheets. It’s really just basic stamping and a little heat embossing. I sponged some Primrose Petals ink on the doily to make it blend a little better with the paper. The That’s the Ticket set, added the perfect finishing touch. There is so much to LOVE in this new Spring Catalog. It’s so easy to get beautiful cards with all of the wonderful new embellishments and tools!

I hope you get to stamp today!

More Stitched Stockings

stitched stocking

Yes, it’s Stitched Stockings again! Love it! I used a the new Pool Party and Wild Wasabi on this one. I really like the wintery feel of this color combo.The new Dazzling Details make it so easy to add the sparkle with no mess. The cuff on the stocking is that pretty new velvet ribbon from the Holiday Mini catalog.

Hope you get to stamp today!
