Flower Shop

 

I just love this stamp set and the best thing about this set is that there is a co-ordinating punch that you can bundle together and get 15% off. How cool is that? I am also loving the new In Colours for this year. I find myself keep reaching for them whenever I am creating. I used the new Oval Framelits to cut an opening in the front of the card so that the sentiment can 'peek' through.

No Peeking Invitation

Every year I let my daughter invite some friends over to decorate cookies and do some crafting.  This is the invitation that we made for this year. Isn't it so stinkin cute. This stamp set is perfect for children, I may just let them make a card using this stamp set. It's hard to see in the picture but I tore Whisper White cardstock to make the hills and used Iridescent Ice embossing powder on the torn part. I also colored a small pearl with a red Sharpie marker for Rudolph's red nose.

With the overwhelming response to the Ornament on the cover of the Holiday Mini I decided to hold a class. The class was Nov 1 and we made 3 different Ornaments and 1 quick card.

 

 Supplies for the Large Ornament:



Stamp Set:
128048 (wood) 128051 (clear) Ornament Keepsakes

Paper:
101650 Very Vanilla
126901 Candlelight Christmas Specialty Designer Series Paper

Ink:
126861 Gumball Green
126966 Cherry Cobbler

Accessories:
127816 Holiday Ornament Framelits
127555 Vintage Faceted Designer Buttons
125577 Large Pearl Basic Jewels
127841 3-1/2" Scalloped Tulle Ribbon in Cherry Cobbler
104199 Linen Thread

Other:
Glue Gun
Hemp (for hanger)


I also stamped "Heart Of Christmas" (#128129)  and cut with Label Framelits for the back.

 

Supplies for the Smaller Ornament:

Stamp Set:
128030 (wood) 128033 (clear) Greetings of the Season

Paper:
101650 Very Vanilla
126901 Candlelight Christmas Specialty Designer Series Paper
127885 Glimmer Paper in Champagne

126949 Real Red

Accessories:
127816 Holiday Ornament Framelits
127813 Snow Flurry Bigz Die

I also stamped "Heart Of Christmas" (#128129) and cut with Label Framelits for the back.

 For the smallest ornament I purchased a porcelain ornament at a Big Box store,

 

 

I then inked up the Tree from "Christmas Lodge" ( #123767 w; 123769 c) with Versamark and stamped on ornament. Don't forget to use your Embossing Buddy (#103083) first. Then I sprinkled with Gumball Green Embossing Powder (#128981). It will take awhile for the powder to melt, my tip is to lay it on a towel while heating as it will get very hot. I used Dazzling Details in Cherry Cobbler (#125585) for adding berries and it dried very nicely.

Lily's Birthday

I have to apoligize for being MIA these past 2 weeks but I was busy creating items for my daughter's 5th birthday this past weekend. I would like to share a picture of the cake that I made for her:

I was very pleased with how it turned out, and Lily LOVED it of course. I had many positive reactions to the cake.


I also attempted to make my first banner. I am happy with how it turned out, even though I forgot to put the flowers on that I made for it.

For the base I used Elegant Eggplant cardstock and embossed the Swirl Stamp ( from Creative Elements Stamp Set #122645 W / #122647 C ) with Iridescent Ice Embossing Powder (#101930).
I also used the Perfect Pennants Die (#123126) and cut Doilys from Daffodil Delight cardstock for under the Letters.

Watch for more updates tomorrow, thanks for visiting.


Happy Crafting,

Laurie
