Cupcake Slider Card

Happy Monday!

I hope you had a great weekend and that you got a little stamping time.
I had lots of stamping time because Hubby was perfectly happy watching the football playoffs with wifey not in the room!

I have a fun cupcake slider card to share with you today!


The card started with a die cut Pocket with Window & Tag from Creative Cuts & More.  You can choose what color you want each of the pieces to be cut from.  Die Cuts make it so easy to make a fun slider card that will look like it took hours to make.


I created a panel from white card stock and adhered it to the back of the pocket.


Then I taped the window pocket together with Tear-able Tacky Tape.


Then I stamped the two white panels, colored them, and added the pocket to the front of my card.


Here's the inside.



Here's what you need to make this card:
Stamps:
Hey Cupcake by The Rubber Cafe
Paper:
Bazzill card stock
Pugnacious white paper
The Paper Studio patterned paper
Pocket with Window & Tag from Creative Cuts & More
Ink:

Before taping together with Killer Tear-able Tape, I embossed the top with a pretty embossing folder. I added some flowers and some punched foliage. The sentiment and doily ‘frame’ are from Our Daily Bread designs that I cut by hand.

Snowman Shaker Card

Hello All!

I have a fun little Snowman Shaker card to share with you today.
I made it with a Shaker Box with Acetate Square die cut from Creative Cuts & More and stamps by The Rubber Cafe and OCL.


When you order the die cut you have your choice of tons of different colors and type of paper.
I chose Splash Blue Bazzill Canvas Textured Cardstock.
This is what it looks like when it arrives.


It's really easy to fold on the scored lines and put together with Killer Red or White Tacky Tape.

Before closing it all the way up you simply slide your stamped image panel into the shaker box and add beads, confetti, glitter....whatever you want and the close it up.



So fun and easy and sure to impress the recipient!

Stamps:
Snowman Set by The Rubber Cafe
It's a Blizzard Outside by the Rubber Cafe
Sentiment is from Tweet Winter Wishes set by OCL
Paper:
Bazzill Basic Card Stock
Neenah white Card Stock
Shaker Box with Acetate Square die cut from Creative Cuts & More
Ink:
Memento Tuxedo Black die ink
Copic Markes
Adirondack Stonewashed die ink by Ranger
Other:
Beads (source unknown)
Fiscars snowflake border punch

I hope you enjoyed my project today and that your 2012 is off to a fabulous start!

No Fries… Just the Box!

Dec23

Merry Christmas!
Do you have everything wrapped and ready?!

Every year I do up a little ‘something’ for our mail carrier…this year, Lisa will get a French Fry Box from Creative Cuts and More, filled with a chocolate mint cappuccino mix, a white hot chocolate mix and candy!

The Pinecone Bazzill Canvas was already cut and scored, I just used White Tear-able Tape on the tabs…easy peasy!

I thought the cute image holding a letter, from Sassy Cheryl’s was a perfect match too.

I hope you find some Creative Cuts & More under your tree!

Merry Christmas
and
Happy New Year!

HEART SHAPED WINDOW ALBUM


Hello Divas!!!  

This chipboard album comes from Creative Cuts and More and is called the Heart Shaped Window 6 x 6 AlbumThe leaf ribbon is from Really Reasonable Ribbon. I also used Creative Inspiration Paints Aquamarine and Light Purple. This paint adds just the right amount of accent and shimmer! 
I used the gorgeous Butterfly Single and Die and Faith from Our Daily Bread Designs. I also used the Ecstasy Crafts Small Template




 The second page of our album is this picture of my husband and I! As soon as you pull a camera out, his eyes close or he grimaces!


From Creative Cuts and MoreI used the Petite Heart die cut in double sided adhesive and added Martha Stewart glitter to it. 



On my third page,  I created a pocket with a 4" x 4 1/2" card stock and scoring at a half of an inch of three sides. I mitered the edges and using Killer Red Tacky Tape adhered it to the album. I had three of my children write a note of things they love to do with Grandma and added a punch tab to them.

The stamps that I used the stamp set called Don't Worry and the ZVA Pearls Double Flourishes.





Thank you for stopping by! Have a blessed week!

Oh, how I love a square card!

Square cards are my favorite!  Just like a 12 x 12 scrapbook page!  Add scallops and it is really more than love!  Then turn it into a Window Square Scallop Card, so fantastic and the options are endless!   
This week I picked the Oval Window Square Scallop Card, it was hard to pick just one!  So, I didn't. I picked several! 
The ribbon is from my stash and so are the buttons.  The stamps are {ippity}, the gems are from Recollections.  The twine is mine.
Thank you so much for stopping by today!
