Last two cute boxes

These are the last two boxes that came in this month’s kit!  These are great little boxes to put treats in!  Don’t you just love this Gingham Gala DSP.

Cute little Box

Another cute little box designed by Ronda Wade for our WestCoast meeting.  I love learning how to make new boxes!

Gingham Basket

This is another design by Ronda Wade!  It is fun to be part of a team and receive these packages.    

Gingham Gala

Every month our team leader sends us out some projects and we meet by computer.   Our team meetings are very inspiring and we learn from each other!   This month we are using this lovely Gingham Gala DSP on pg 35 of the Occasions catty!    This is such a cute little box!

Cute Puppies

Stefanie Pletscher made this card and I swapped her for one of mine.  I love doing swaps.   You get such great cards in return!     The Happy Tails Bundle makes cute cards!

Puppy Love

These puppies are so cute and even though I am not a pet person I love them!  I have many friends and family who have pets and it is so hard when they lose them.  This bundle is very easy to use.

Piece of Cake

Awhile ago now I participated in a swap and this card was made by Shelby Yaky!    The Piece of Cake Bundle had sold out but is now available again.     I loved the colours and paper she used!

My Favourite Romance!!

This is my favourite card so far out of this suite!   The leaves and flowers are so easy to colour and so pretty!  I used Dark Mossy Meadow to colour the smaller leaves and my Old Olive Blends to colour the Bigger leaves.  Daffodil Delight makes this card very springlike don’t you think?   The Rectangle Stitched Framelits make a lovely frame too!

Romancing Technique

I saw this technique on Pinterest by suzystamps.com but changed quite a bit and made it my own!    I can’t decide which design I like better but am leaning 😉 towards the one that is offset!   I made a stencil with my oval thinlits and sponged inside my stencil and then you don’t have to colour the leaves.

Love these Framelits!

This Framelits makes such pretty cards!!!  The Vellum DSP  is so pretty too it almost needs nothing with it!!

Wonderful Romance

There sure are some gorgeous Framelits in the Occasions catty and this is one of them!  The DSP, the Framelits and the stamp set are marvelous.   I had some pieces for a card laying on my desk and I picked them up and used the Romance suite to make this pretty card!!

Paper Pumpkin Cuties

Well.... couldn’t open this for a few days but finally I have it working again!  I will just post all the pieces I sorted for this month’s Paper Pumpkin and show you also the cute pop up cards I made from the kit!

Saleabration Thank You Cards

I am making a few cards to say Thank you! To a few staff who have majorly helped me in the classroom I have been subbing in for this past month.  These lovely cards you can still get for free from Saleabration will go into their packages.

Painted Season

I looked at the brochure of Stampin’ Up’s second offering of free products and decided to try the one on the front cover.  I would never have tried Call me Cliver, Bashful Blue and Lemon Lime Twist together but it is actually very pretty!

Powder Pink Painted Seasons

The flowers in this stamp set are so pretty.  I tried some darker colours first  but liked the Powder Pink the best!  I used Lemon Line Twist  and Pear Pizzaz on the leaves.  The sentiment is from the Strong and Beautiful Stamp Set.  

Country Colouring

Well.... I had to try colouring the Country Floral Dynamic TexturedcImpressions Folder!   Oh my!   That is a long name!     But this is a folder worthy of its title!  You can get this folder free with a $60 purchase.  You spritz your papercwith a little water and run it through your Big Shot and it is incredible how the flowers pop out.

Home to Roost

Thanks to Linda Suarer for this design!   I needed a birthday card for my aunt who loves roosters and I loved the design when I saw it.

Peaceful Day

I tried to make this a little winter with Dazzling Diamond glitter but it doesn’t show up too much in the photograph.    I have been experimenting making different seasons with this stamp set.

Cupcake under Glass

I wanted to try another one of the thinlits that goes with these cupcakes.  I love lemon and chocolate so it is easy to choose colours to make cupcakes!

Sprinkled Cupcakes!

Was I ever glad to have the thinlits for this card!

Hello Cupcake

I am glad i didn’t have a chance to use this set before I got the thinlits.   I will have to experiment more but it is great not to have to fussy cut these pieces!

Thank you Angela for this beautiful card that came in the mail today!    It is made from the Climbing Roses Bundle.  The roses and the trellis  are so pretty!

Hoppy Birthday!!

I used my silicone mat to make a mirror image of this cute little frog.   I usually use window sheets but this is easier.   I got the idea for this card from Karen Hallam but made it my own.  I think I like the off center card better!  What do you think?

Hoppy Birthday

I am glad I didn’t have a chance to use this set before I got my Framelits!  I saw this card by Linda Suaret and I had to try it.  The gingham DSP really makes the card.  I coloured one set with Mossy Meadow blends and the other with Old Olive Blends and then I used my Wink of Stella.

Toadily Hoppy

I think I got “toadily” carried away making this card!  I just couldn’t help myself!   Now that you can buy Framelits for these frogs - well - you can get Toadily carried away and just keep on making them.  It is so easy to stamp on any green and then just cut them out with a Framelits!

Ten Year Anniversary

I had a lovely surprise waiting for me when I got home from school today!   Thank you Angela for these beautiful flowers to recognize my ten year anniversary with Stampin’ Up!  I sure love their crafting supplies and have appreciated all of Angela’s support.  It has been great to be part of her team and her support for beginning my own!
