Stampers By The Dozen October 2018 Blog Hop - Bokeh Dots

Hello Hivers, 

Welcome to another Stampers By The Dozen Blog Hop.  This month we had a color challenge.  These are the colors that we needed to use:

I made a couple of projects to share for this Hop.  I created a birthday card and a cute little gift bag using the Bokeh Dots stamp set.  This was my first time playing with this stamp set.  I combined it with the Treat Time stamp set for a sentiment and background decorations.  I used the Happy Birthday Thinlit to die cut my focal image out of Basic Black cardstock.  

For the gift bag I used Poppy Parade cardstock and stamped the front with Poppy Parade classic ink.  I used the Starburst and Tailored Tag punches to decorate.  

Bag Measurements:
4.25" x 11"
Score long side: 4", 5.25", 9.25", 10.5"
Score short side: 1.25"

Here is one last look at both the projects together.  

I hope you have enjoyed your visit to the Hive today.  Sooo...What did you think of my project for this Hop?  Leave a comment and let me know. 

Remember, this is a Blog Hop, the excitement continues...

Hop on over to Carly's blog...she is up next in the Blog Hop.

Love Never Melts

Hello Hivers, 

I love this card.  I seen the card sketch on Pinterest.  I love the colors that I used.  It is a very simple card but I think it makes a statement.  I wish you could see all the sparkle on the snowmen...the Wink of Stella didn't photograph well on this picture. At least you can see the sparkle from the Glimmer Paper.
This would make a great Christmas card or just a card celebrating Love.

Flirty Flamingo Spirited Snowmen

Hello Hivers, 

I am having a ball playing with this stamp set.  All of the images are super cute, they make me happy.  All of the Swirls & Curls in the background have been brushed with Clear Wink of Stella.  I love using non-traditional colors for Christmas.

What do you think?  Let me know in the comments.

CASE'd Spirited Snowmen

Hello Hivers, 

Today I am sharing a card that I CASE'd from Dawn.  I changed a few things, of course, to make it my own.  I love the colors on this card.  This snowman looks so carefree.  I am counting down the days until Christmas.  I can't wait.

Country Home Birthday

Hello Hivers, 

This card is very similar to a project I shared for a Stampers By The Dozen Blog Hop.  Most of the components are the same.  I switched up the main image and used a different sentiment.  I needed a birthday card for a co-worker and I thought this would be perfect.  She loved it.  


As always, thanks for Buzzzing by the Hive today. 
Until next time....Buzzz you later.

Happy Halloween Treat Bag

Hello Hivers, 

I am having so much fun with all the Halloween products.  I made another little treat bag that holds 2 Ghirardelli squares.  I decorated the bag using the Cauldron Bubble stamp set and Framelits.  The Designer Series Paper is called Toil & Trouble.  This is such a fun pack of paper.  The framelits can cut out some of the images on the paper, which is what I have done here with the cauldron. I know it's hard to see, but there is a little Spider Trinket hanging from the ribbon at the top.  

Measurements:
Cardstock:  6.25" x 8.25"
Score long side:  2.75", 3.75", 6.5", 7.5"
Score short side:  1", 5.25"  

As always, thanks for Buzzzing by the Hive today. 
Until next time....Buzzz you later.

Dashing Along Ghirardelli Treat Bags

Hello Hivers, 

I hope you all took advantage of the great Host Promotion last month to get this wonderful 12" x 12" Designer Series Paper for FREE.  It is super gorgeous. I am just finding time to sit and play with a lot of my new goodies.  I made these cute little treat bags to hold 2 Ghirardelli squares, however, other things can fit in them. I also used the Merry Christmas To All stamp set and Merry Christmas thinlits.  

The photo below is showing how I accomplished the 2 partial score lines at 3.25" and 7" for the sides of the bag.  The ruler is there just for a visual stopping point.

The following photo shows how I got the horizontal lines at 2.5" for the sides of the bag.

Here's another look at the two bags.  The first bag was made using the above template.  The second bag was altered just a bit by cutting off the top flap for a different closure.

August 2018 CASE'd Paper Pumpkin Alternate

Hello Hivers, 

I have been super busy.  I didn't even realize that I hadn't used my August Paper Pumpkin Kit.  One of my friends lost her sister and I needed to make a sympathy card.  I searched Pinterest and found a card very similar to this one.  I changed just a few things.  This kit is super gorgeous.  I will have to play with it more when I find some time.

Paper Pumpkin Alternate Project - Caught In Your Web

Hello Hivers, 

When I was designing this card, I was thinking about all the people that may have gotten married on Halloween.  I know there are a few couples out there.  I thought this would make a great anniversary card.  Maybe just a way for anyone to say I love you around this time of year.

 I think it's super cute.

Eeeek! - Paper Pumpkin September 2018 Alternate Card

Hello Hivers, 

Here is another idea for an alternate project using this months Paper Pumpkin Kit.  I love all of the sparkle the Wink of Stella gives this card.  I wrapped the treat bags around the bag stabilizers to create the 4 rectangles.  This card was simple to make.  There are so many other things that can be created using this kit.  I have seen some amazing ideas on Pinterest.  I have one more project for you tomorrow.  I hope you are enjoying all of my ideas.
