Yay Spring!!!

Hi Everyone:

Here in Ohio, it's in the 70's
all week. And it feels like spring.

Today, I  wanted to make a little

treat box with flowers.

I found three sites on You Tube,

and used all the techniques to

make this project.

The first site is from Tami White, this lady is awesome. Thank you for the hat tin project.

The second site is from Vadeler,

she is amazing.

Thank you for the Lily Flowers. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xq12tg8T4v4

And I made the stamens from the

Happyscrapbooker video. She made flowers.

I used the technique to make stamens.

Thank you so much...

I want to thank all the wonderful

 people who help us to create projects.

Videos &Tutorials are very hard to do, and take a lot of time and energy.

It's like having teacher's right

there to help you.

So the next time you are watching a

tutorial or video, make sure

you tell the person thank you.

This is my project for today:

 

 

 

I had a great time making this project.

I hope the video's helped.

I hope you enjoyed the blog today.
I will be having a give-a-way very soon.

Poppet Hugs

Hi Everyone,

Today I am going to show you one more of the

little Poppets. I think this set is so adorable.

These stamps have so much detail.

They have stamps for boys and girls.

Stop by Crafter's Companion and check them out.

For the front of the card.

I stamped her out on white card stock, and colored her in with my

Spectrum-Noir Markers.

Then inked the edges, and cut

 her out with a spellbinders die. Then

placed that on another layer of card stock and added the "HUGS"

sentiment. I punched out little hearts and weaved the

ribbon round the edges. Then placed lots of little

flowers and a bow in the corner and done.

For the inside, I had a piece of lace paper with roses on it.

I cut a square and placed it down on the card  then

airbrushed over it with splashes of blue.

Crafter's Companion has all kind of wonderful stamps.

They also have Card stock, runner tape, markers,

ink pads, etc, and a Gallery to see what to do with

all these wonderful things.

We have a  Challenge Blog if you want to make a project

 and win  some of the Spectrum-Noir marker, this month.

The theme is "Going Green".

Just make sure you use one of Crafter's Companion stamps.

We are also on Facebook and Twitter.

I had a great time making this card.

Thank you so much for stopping by.

And have a scrappy day.

Tilda On A Tea Cup

Hi Everyone

Today I had fun playing with my Magnolia stamps.

I adore these stamps!!

There are so many to pick from.

I used Tilda with Daffodil's, and the Tea Cup.

I started out with some petty green card stock.

Used the flowers from the "flower pot"

stamp set by "Close To My Heart".

Then took a piece of pink pearlescent card stock

from  Crafter's Companion and ran that through my

 big shot machine with the Sizzix, Distressed Squares,

embossing folder.  Placed that on top of the green card

stock and now it was ready for the stamps.

I stamped both Miss Tilda and the Tea Cup on Neenah

Card stock and colored them in with alcohol based markers.

Then cut them out and mounted them with foam squares.

For the little flower in Tilda's hand I used a small amount of

Flower Soft. I added some glitter on her shoe strings

and the Tea Cup. Then put the flowers and leaves at the top

and now it is ready to give to someone very special.

If you would like to see more of the

Tilda stamps

and accessories go to the

 Stamping Scrapping Website

and check them out.

I hope you enjoyed the card.

Thank you so much for stopping by!!

And have a scrappy day!!



Stamp It With Love

Hi Crafters,

Today I've made a Mother's Day card.

I know it's a little early, but this stamp

just called out MOM.

I started out with a piece of black card stock

folded in half. The rest were stamped on white card stock.

I rubbed  blue ink on the paper before stamping.

 Then stamped out the Happy Mother's Day and

the scroll work design. These are from the new designs from

Stamp It.

I cut out the oval shape, and placed it in the middle

of the card with pop dots.

The sentiment was cut with a small die

 shape, and placed on top.

For the heart arrow, I cut out 3 hearts and put double

sided tape down the middle and stacked them

on top of each other. The arrow point is a clock hand.

 On the back end is just a prima rose with the leaves

 to make the feather end of the arrow.

Now just add some flowers on the top and bottom of the oval.

For the inside I placed a piece of gold card stock.

All finished.

Save for the big day.

All of the new stamps from Stamp It you can find at the

Crafter's Companion website.

Also Take a look at the

Crafter's Companion Challenge blog.

The theme this month is "Going Green".

Just make a project with one of the Crafter's Companion

stamps to enter. You can enter up to 3 times, how cool is that!

The winner will receive  (3) packages of our awesome Spectrum Noir Alcohol Ink 6 Pen Marker Sets (your choice of color groupings) and a Spectrum Noir 36 Pen Zipper Bag .

Pop over and take a look at the sets. Which one's

would you pick?

I hope you enjoyed the card.

Thank you for stopping by.

And have a scrappy day.

Wall Paper Fun

Hi Everyone,

Today I went to a few different wall paper

stores and they gave me some of the old books

they were going to throw away.

The paper is very strong and works

well for all kinds of projects.

I have the Magnolia Magazine from

February, called " Make a wish".

It has the cutest little baby carriage.

I started out with a few sheets
of wall paper. 

Then cut the pieces out.

As you can see I forgot two of the wheels.

:) LOL :)

Then just put them together and decorate.

They are just the right size

for mints, or a small gift for the baby.

You could also use them as place

settings with every one's name on them.

Or maybe at a baby shower for games or

prizes.

They are very easy to make.

If you would like the pattern

for this adorable little Carriage.

Go to

Stamping Scrapping

and check out all the wonderful Magnolia products.

I had so much fun making this little

baby carriage.

Next time you go past the wall paper store,

pop in and ask if they have any old books

they are going to throw away.

It keeps them out of the land fills and that's

 great for the enviorment. Remember this month is going green. This is one little thing we

can do to help save the planet,

and have fun in the process.

Thank you so much for stopping by.

And have a scrappy day.
