Little Critters SBTD February Blog Hop

Hello Hivers, 

Welcome to the Stampers By The Dozen February Blog Hop.  This month our theme is "Critters".  We were to create our projects using any animal or insect stamp set that is current.  I decided that I wanted to use the smaller images in each set (that I used) that can be easily overlooked.  Well...here is what I came up with.  

Here I used a technique called Paper Piecing.  I stamped the images from the We Must Celebrate stamp set onto the Painted With Love SDSP and cut out the portion of the images I wanted and adhered them to my focal point on my card.  

You may be able to see it better in the close up below.  All the projects use Wink of Stella on the main image.  You can definitely see the Wink of Stella better in the close up.

On the card below I used the same card layout.  I used the Flying Home stamp set along with the Celebrate You Thinlits, which is a FREE Sale-A-Bration selection.

You know I couldn't resist making a 3D item.  Below I used the Mini Treat Bag Thinlits to create the project.  I paired it up with the Sharing Sweet Thoughts stamp set for an adorable look.

I hope you enjoy the Blog Hop this month.  We have some pretty cool projects for you to see. 


I have listed all the supplies used for these projects below.

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

Happy Little Piggy

Hello Hivers, 

I am loving this card layout.  As you can see, I have used it for a few cards now.  I just change a few things around.  I am really liking this color combination...Cherry Cobbler, Crushed Curry, and Night of Navy.  They are so rich and vibrant.  And OMG!  Look how happy that little piggy looks.  Just adorable.

Wow!  I am so proud of myself.  I came up with this layout all on my own.  It is not very often that I come up with the card sketch AND design all by myself.  It is usually either or.  I just love it.  I wish that the Wink of Stella would have shown better in this photo.  Oh, and those Berry Burst Glitter Enamel Dots are to die for.  I need to order some more of them.

Colors:  Pear Pizzazz, Powder Pink, Berry Burst, Fresh Fig, Whisper White, Basic Black, and Daffodil Delight

Ferrero Rocher - All Boxed Up

Hello Hivers,

Are you all loving the new In Colors as much as I am?  This Lemon Lime Twist is to die for.
Today I am sharing a little box that holds one Ferrero Rocher chocolate.  I found the tutorial by Heidi S. on Pinterest. She didn't exactly make these boxes with lids together, however, these are all her measurements.  I will share my version of her actual project next Wednesday.

I made two boxes using the Color Theory DSP, Dapper Denim, Whisper White and Lemon Lime Twist card stock.  The bow was made using the Bow Builder Punch.  I couldn't decide if I wanted the tails on or off the bow so I made one with each option.  I added a Glitter Enamel Dot in the middle of the Dapper Denim bow.


Measurements:

Box:  4.75" x 4.75"

Using the Envelope Punch Board
Punch and Score at: 1-3/8" and 3-3/8" on all four sides

Box Lid:  3.25" x 3.25" Score at: 3/8" and 7/8" on all four sides

Color Theory Boxed Set

Hello Hivers,

I have been seeing these "Side Panel Cards" all over Pinterest.  I was inspired by Angelina, a demonstrator in the UK.

I used the Color Theory Designer Series Paper Stack along with the Colorful Seasons stamp set to create these cards. I even made matching envelopes and a box to put them all in.

Some of the cards have ribbon some have card stock in place of the ribbon.  For a little dazzle, I added the Glitter Enamel Dots and flowers cut from the Seasonal Layers Thinlits.





Measurements:

Black Base: 4" x 11" Score at: 1/2", 2", 4", 5.5"
Berry Burst: 3.75" x 5.25" ( x 2 pieces)
Whisper White (or DSP): 3.5" x 5" ( x 2 pieces)

Berry Burst: 2.75" x 5.5" Score at: 1/2" and 2"
Basic Black: 2.5" x 3.25"
Whisper White (or DSP): 2.25" x 3"
