Hello Hivers, What a special treat I have for you today. On Saturday, I received my March Paper Pumpkin Kit. Since Stampin' Up! is celebrating 6 years of Paper Pumpkin, they gave everyone an extra stamp set in this kit for FREE. It is fabulous. Here is a picture of what you can make with this kit. OMG! Aren't these cards just the cutest!? It's not too late for you to earn FREE Sale-A-Bration products with your pre-paid subscription to the Paper Pumpkin. Click on the image below to sign up today.

Hello Hivers, Welcome to another Stampers By The Dozen Blog Hop. This month we are focusing on card designs. What we have to do is design a simple card and then design a more stepped up version of that same card. Here is the simple version of my cards. I couldn't decide on what color to use so I made two cards. I made the first in Smokey Slate and the other is Balmy Blue. I used a little Pineapple Punch for the Honeybee. The sentiment on all the cards came from the Host stamp set, Very Vintage.
SMOKEY SLATE SIMPLE CARD
BALMY BLUE SIMPLE CARD
For the Stepped Up version I added some framelits and bling into the mix. For the Smokey Slate card I used the Rectangle Stitched Framelits and the other card uses the Stitched Shapes Framelits. I also used the Be Mine Stitched Framlits on the Balmy Blue card. Another difference in the cards are the centers. On the Smokey Slate card the center is recessed and on the Balmy Blue card the center is raised.
Take a look.

Hello Hivers, I have a sweet treat for you today. I created this milk carton style box to hold this "St. Patricks Day" cupcake. I decorated the box using the Happiness Blooms DSP and the Amazing Life stamp set. I have a lot going on right now and things are pretty chaotic in the Hive. I am hoping I can get some filming done soon. Measurements: Cut Card Stock: 5.5" x 11.5" Score Short Side at: 2.75", 4.5", 5" Score Long Side at: 2.75", 5.5", 8.25", 11" DSP: (x4) 2.5" x 1.75"

Hello Hivers, I have been trying to make simple cards lately. I seem to always want to add more layers and embalmments. This card is simple but it is very pretty. I love the little butterflies. I punched those out using the Butterfly Duet Punch and the Sparkle Glimmer Paper. I added a little color for the bodies using my Aqua Painter.

Hello Hivers, I don't know why, but this card is absolutely stunning to me. I think it is very simple but all the elements just come together so perfectly. There was no stamping on this card. I punched out the butterfly from the Botanical Butterfly DSP using the Butterfly Duet Punch. I embossed the background using the Country Flora DTIEF. Just about everything on this card was FREE. Yes, FREE. Most of the products used are Sale-A-Bration items.
