A Pouch For You

Hello Hivers,

Pootles has struck again.  I just love her blog.  I get inspiration from several of my fellow Stampin' Up! demonstrators.

I don't remember the name of the DSP that I used, but I know that it is retired.  The sentiment came from the Hostess only set, Hello There and the flower is from the Petite Petals stamp set.

Until next time....

Seeing Stripes

Hello Hivers,

I love making 3D projects.  Here is a pouch that holds a Ghirardelli chocolate square.  I found the instructions from a pin on Pinterest.  It is very simple to make.  I used the Moonlight Designer Series Paper stack with coordinating ribbon.

Soaring Butterflies

Hello Hivers,

My 6 year old daughter had to make a kite for class.  This is what we came up with.  It was just for display, it didn't have to fly.  I love all the butterflies we used.  I printed her name plate using MDS.  We added lots of Dazzling Diamonds, although you can't see it very well in the photo.

My 3D Swap

Hello Hivers,

I will be sharing Regional swaps for the next couple of weeks. I made over 150 items to swap. So that means I have over 150 items to share with you. Well, I may have less because I did give out some of my items to stampers that didn't make swaps.

This is the other 3-D item I made to swap. I used Soft Suede, Regal Rose and Whisper White card stock. I used three punches; the Scallop Oval, Modern Label, and Pinking Hearts Border Punch. I filled the Small Cello bags with M&M's and attached a Help Whip Cancer Pin to the topper. The pin is from The Pampered Chef. I bought them about 6 years ago when I was a Consultant. These are the pins that I put in the box I shared yesterday. My sentiment came from the stamp set called Eat Chocolate.

Another Top Note Purse

Hello Hivers,
I just had to make another one of these cute purses using the Top Note die. For this purse I used the Sweet Always DSP and Only Orange card stock. I ran some Pumpkin Pie 1/4" ribbon down the center of the Chocolate Chip ribbon to create the handle. I used a Jumbo brad for the button on this purse. I also gave it a little flare with the Swirls and Scribbles die.

Enjoy your day. Leave me a comment and I will enjoy mine.

Is Easter Here Yet?

Hello Hivers,
Today I am sharing these cute little baskets using the Scalloped Envelope Bigz die. I embossed my paper with Stampin' Up! Texture Plates Kit #4 and Backgrounds 1. I added some Sweet Always DSP to decorate. The flowers are from the Sweet Stems stamp set and I used the Five Petal Punch to create the other flower.

Until next time.....

Top Note Purse

Hello Hivers,
I have been seeing these cute purses all over SCS and other blogs. I just had to make one. I think this turned out pretty good. I used 2 Top Notes and the large Scallop Circle die to create this purse. I decorated it with the Sweet Always DSP and the Swirls Scribbles Sizzlits die. I added 2 Jumbo eyelets to the flap to hold the ribbon in place for the handle. I used 5/8" Chocolate Chip ribbon with 1/4" Whisper White grosgrain ribbon down the middle. The "button" on the flap is a Filigree brad with a Circle Rhinestone brad in the center.

Thanks for buzzzing by my hive today. Leave me a comment and let me know what you think.

Until next time.....

Becky's Tote-ally Awesome Tote - CASE

Hello Hivers,

I spent three days making today's project. It does not take that long to make, however, I just had to make mine faux leather. That takes a while to do all the pieces. Then there is the fact that I couldn't decided what stamp set to use with this project. I finally decided to use True Friends and Boho Backgrounds due to the fact that leather reminds me of Cowboys and these sets are a bit cowboyish...right.

(post it note holder)
Well, I got the tutorial for this project from Inking Idaho's blog. She does great work. I can't come up with stuff like this. I can however copy just about anything...LOL.

The other items in the tote are 4 cards w/envelopes, post it note holder, and 2 book markers.

Note Card Holder

Hello Hivers,

This cute little bag is holding 4 note cards and envelopes.

I used some of my retired items for this project. The card stock I used is old In Colors: Soft Sky and Wild Wasabi and the DSP is Winter Green and Porcelain Prints.

I used the Bigz Top Note Die to make the flap of the purse. I embossed the Soft Sky piece to make it look like leather. The button is a brad from the Circle Designer Brads. The handle is retired double stitched River Rock ribbon.

I used the Scallop Edge and Eyelet Border punches on the cards along with Wild Wasabi and Sage Shadow Ribbon. The images and sentiments are from the stamp set Pocket Silhouettes. I also used the Canvas background stamp (retired) on the outside of the holder along with my paper piercing tool.

Enjoy the remainder of your day. Thanks for buzzzing by.
