Dressy Chapstick

Hello Hivers,

Here is a project I made using a Retired Framelit set.  I watched a video tutorial over at frenchiestamps.com.  I can't remember who I gave this to.  I love how the DSP matches the Stampin' Up! lip balm.  Even though more than half the items in my collection are retired, I will still continue to use them.  Some things are just that Awesome.

Until next time....Buzzz you later,

Congrats Grad! Money Holder

Hello Hivers,

Today's project is one I made for my nephew in June, when he graduated from High school.  I got the idea and measurements from Frenchie.  She is so awesome.  I don't have the stamp sets she used, so I created the background and sentiment on the front in MDS.  I had so much fun creating this Money Envelope.  This would be great for all sorts of occasions.

Until next time....Buzzz you later,

Toilet Tissue Graduation

Hello Hivers,

My youngest son graduated from the 5th Grade this past June.  This is what I made for his class as graduation gifts.  I had so much fun making these.  They are made using toilet tissue rolls.  So simple.  I got the idea and instructions from Connie Stewart.  I filled it with candy, erasers, and a pencil with a flag on it. Then I stuffed it with crinkled paper.  One of these gifts is doing it's own thing.  One of these gifts is not the same.

Sorry for the dark picture.

An Apple for Teacher

Hello Hivers,

Today I am sharing cards I made for my children's teachers. I copied a sample shown by Lynn Pratt. You can view her original sample here. I used all the same supplies as Lynn, I only changed the inside so that I could write my message. There wasn't any stamping involved in the making of these wonderful Caramel Apples. These cards are so cute. Thanks Lynn.

Birthday Thank You Gifts

Hello Hivers,

Today I am sharing a project I made for my mother and a good friend of hers. They celebrated their birthdays together. We had a great time. We had a late morning brunch....women only and we had to wear sun dresses and hats. Then later in the evening they hosted a crab boil (blue crabs, corn on the cob, and potatoes all in one huge pot). My mother and her friend wanted to give thank you gifts to all their guests....this is what I came up with...

Monogrammed Candles

Hello Hivers,

Here are the cute little candles I made to match the tiles from yesterday. Just stamped the design on tissue paper and heat set it onto the candle. Super easy.

Main Event

Hello Hivers,

It is time. I have promised to show you an awesome project. Well, here it is. I love all that can be done with just paper. I made a flip album. My first time ever making one of these. I think it turned out great. I took photos of each page. So get ready for a bunch of pictures. (BTW the jumbo paper clip was just used as a prop).

Thanks for buzzzing by my blog. I appreciate all your support and comments.

Time to Catch Up

Hello Hivers,

I am back. I have figured out a long and drawn out process to watermark my photos. I have to use a computer that belongs to someone else. Ha ha ha! Save to my flash drive and then load the photos onto my iMAC. I hope my DH will purchase some sort of PhotoShop for my computer soon.

I have been working on so many projects. I am starting with a Baby Shower gift from December. Yes, December. LOL This is the card I made for one of my son's teacher. Just love the way this card turned out. In the coming days I will be sharing the rest of the gift I made for her.

It has been so long since I made this card, I can't remember what I used on it. Some circle punches, brads, Circle scallop Bigz die, Simply Scrappin' Kit, card stock and ribbon.

Illuminated Thanks

Hello Hivers,
I finally got to play with one of my new stamp sets. This set has been around for awhile but I just recently purchased it. I made a Thank You gift card holder. I got the idea from, who else but Dawn. You can check out her card HERE.
I used the "soon to be no more" In Colors. I love the way the Kiwi Kiss and Pacific Point look together. The stamp set I used is Illuminations. This set is so elegant. I love it.

Calendars

Hello Hivers,

I think I like these desk calendars. I made another. For this one I used the Bella Rose DSP. I made the flower using the Circle Scallop Punch (Pink Pirouette) and 3 circle punches layered on each other (Riding Hood Red, Kiwi Kiss and Whisper White). The middle of the flower is from the Filigree Designer Brads. I used Kiwi Kiss card stock for the petals that were ran through the paper crimper. I added some White Grosgrain ribbon layered on Kiwi Kiss card stock as the stem for the flower. Isn't this just gorgeous?

Giftable Tiles -- Upgraded

Hello Hivers,

Remember the tiles I shared a while back? Well, here is what I decided to do with them. Instead of giving all 4 as a set of coasters, I made 6 note cards with envelopes to match the tiles. I tied it with some ribbon and added a tag. I used the Say It With Scallops stamp set for the sentiment on the tag and punched it out with the Scalloped Square punch. Now I have 4 gifts instead of one. Cool right?

Until next time.....

Giftable Tile

Hello Hivers,

I made this wonderful set this past weekend. My upline, Mary, had a technique class while i was in town and I jumped at the chance to attend. We stamped our images using Craft Ink and baked the tiles for about 30 mintues. You can give these as gifts or keep them for yourself. We made a total of 4 coasters and 1 trivet pad each. We had lots of fun talking and stamping.

Until next time.....
