14 Days of Love - Copper Dotted Treat Bag

Good Morning!  I'm up early today!  We're driving down the mountain to finalize our trust.  We've needed to do this for our kids for years and it feels great to finally be getting it done!  I hope you all have a wonderful day...get lots done and even find time to create!

I have another 14 Days of Love project to share with you today!  I hope you aren't getting tired of them!

For this project I used the Copper Dotted Treat Bag. I stamped the sentiment, using the Parcel & Petals stamp set, onto a 1" x 3 1/2" piece of Gray Granite Cardstock.  I punched a small heart out of the end (using a retired punch...some you just never get rid of) and adhered it to a 1 1/4" X 3 1/2" piece of Real Read cardstock.  I love how the heart shows through.  I punched a second Real Red heart and attached it with a dimensional and added a couple of Rhinestones.  I attached the sentiment to the bag with dimensionals al well. Last, I created a sloppy bow using Very Vanilla Scalloped Lace Trim, Real Red Cotton Ribbon, Copper Trim and Linen Thread. I filled it with Ghirardelli Chocolate Square...YUM!!

Well...that was a simple project! I love the sentiment.  It's been fun finding and using some non Valentine stamp sets on my projects!  Hey...THANKS BUNCHES for stopping by!  Have a WONDERFUL day...do something CREATIVE and FUN!!

THANK YOU Tags...

Hello everyone!  Happy Thursday!  Golly...it's a beautiful day at my house!  If you're where isn't so great...please STAY SAFE!!  I have another volleyball game to go to today!  I LOVE watching my girl play...only four more games until the season is over.  I must admit, I'll be a bit sad!

Today i want to share the CUTE tags I put on all of my customer orders or sent to my online customers along with the projects we made in September and their monthly gift from me! They are so fun, cheery and EASY to make...a GREAT combination!

I used the Scalloped Tag Topper punch to cut a 2" x 4" piece of Bermuda Bay and Whisper White cardstock.  I stamped the images in Lovely Lipstick and Gray Granite ink with the Parcels & Petals.  The sentiment is from the Pocketful of Happiness stamp set!  I attached the stamped cardstock to the base with Snail Adhesive the to each package with dimensional after tying a cute bow at the top with Bermuda Bay Mini Striped Ribbon! These would be cute made with Christmas colors and stamps on all of your Christmas gifts!  Get started now and have FUN creating!!

Somebody Loves You - Parcels & Petals

Good Morning everyone!  I hope you're all having a wonderful day! It's been a rough few days for me.  Tuesday was horrible...I just couldn't stop crying. I woke up this morning and realized that Tuesday was the four month anniversary of my son, Adam's death.  No day is easy, but with God's strength I get through them and find JOY in each day. I stay busy and STAY THANKFUL!  

There have been so many kind things going on at the high school. The seniors have senior alley and buy parking spaces (that only they can park in) and personalize them with paint. They painted one for Adam and many of them added AW12 to their own spots. It's pretty cool.  Friday night was the first home football game and the cheerleaders made a sign that said WE LOVE YOU ADAM and formed their pom poms into an AW and there was a moment of silence for a fallen comrade.  It's so wonderful to see how much he was loved by his classmates!  My family has been very blessed by this love. Below are a few photos...first is Adam at the beginning of last years football season!  I LOVE this photo of him!

Now...ON TO CREATING!!!

For this simple card I used a 5 1/2" X 8 1/2" Whisper White card base with a lovely piece of Come Sail Away Designer paper measuring 4" x 5 1/4".  I used the Wild Rose Dies to cut the label for the sentiment which is from the Parcels & Petals stamp set.  The flowers, stamped in Gray Granite, are from the same set.

Here's something really cool that I wanted to share with you!  For the "bow" I used Gray Granite Textured Weave Ribbon.  I tied it in a know then cut the edge off of each side to FRAY it!  I LOVE the way it turned out!  Last, I added a few Clear Epoxy Droplets as flower centers!  

Isn't it a great card?




Well...that's it for today!  THANKS BUNCHES for stopping by!  Have a FANTASTIC rest of your day!

Sketch Challenge - Parcels & Petals

Hello...WOW...it's Wednesday already!  I had a class this morning...it was so nice!  I'm always happy when I'm with my crafty friends!  Their kindness always brings me so much joy!  

I want to share a sketch challenge card I made the other day! I made it using scraps from the scrapbook page of my son that I shared on Saturday, August 10th!  I love it!!

Here's the sketch!

...and here is my card!!

The strips are cut into banners using scrap Come Sail Away DSP.  I also used the Perfect Parcels Dies to cut the Soft Sea Foam back drop for the sentiment.  The card is stamped with the Parcels & Petals stamp set, the flowers in Gray Granite ink that is stamped off and the sentiment in Memento Black ink.  I also used the Brick & Mortar embossing folder on Gray Granite cardstock.  The bling are Epoxy Droplets!  I love the colors, the design, the soft stamping! 

I hope I continue to inspire you to create!  Thanks BUNCHES for stopping by and letting me share what I love to do!  If you need any of these supplies you can purchase them from my Stampin' Up! store by clicking on SHOP NOW on the top right of this blog!
