Dress Form Wedding Card

Ahhh, as you can see Ive neglected the blog this summer, but good news! Fab Five Week starts up again October 3rd-7th, quote of the week: "Im not feeling very creative today" I Promise that will change soon :)

Here is a sample from the store I made a few weeks ago using Metallic Ice Silver Cardstock, Tim Holtz dress form die, pearls and May Arts Ribbon enjoy!

"Wine a little, you'll feel better"

I found inspiration from a popular stamp set we have in the store,"Twisted Threesome" by My Favorite Things, I decorated this wine box with My Minds Eye paper from the "Lime Twist" Collection. The bow on top and tag were both made out of coordinating MME paper as well.

"Happiness is freedom, flowers, and a little sunshine!"

This was a simple page I made using a new paper line we got in at the store called "Simple Stories." Summer as been super busy as you can see!

Cheeky Beach Girl

 Im uploading my blog before I get in any more trouble at work for slacking, things are quite crazy in the summer!! If you didnt know, Im absolutely obsessed with Greeting Farm stamps and the girls at work all knew I was patiently waiting for the arrival of "Cheeky Beach" These girls are sooo cute! As soon as the shipment came in Paula stuck one on my shelf and as soon as I saw it I took it home and started coloring.

Paper Purse

Here is the purse I made for my last class a couple of weeks ago using Spellbinders Grand Calibur and Grand dies. The ladies in class had a ton of fun and some were especially excited to fill it with goodies and give as a present.

Love is for the birds

Here is a cute simple card I made showing some new product we got in the store. (paper, twine, and bird brads) The stamp is by Amuse, We have put a little twist on it using spellbinders tag and an extra layer under the patterned paper to make it "Make and Take ready" for next Thursday stop in 11-1pm at Picture This!!

Fab Five Day 5

Well here it is, Day Five! Now you will have 25 plus ideas using Spellbinders!! These two cards are created using Nested Hearts and Labels Four. I went with a "Twilight" theme, I love the books and movies and Im anxiously awaiting the next movie release. The stamps are all from Amuse and colored in with Copic Markers.  Have a Great Weekend everyone!

Fab Five Day 4 "Best Fishes!"

Id have to say that I think this card turned out super cute for how simple it was, The Spellbinders I used were from the new "Foliage" Spellbinders. I cut them out in two different shades of green cardstock, I inked & stickled the larger one and cut a slice in the paper to tuck the bottom of the diecut behind. The fish sticker was from a Reminisce 12x12 sticker sheet, I placed it on paper, cut it out, and then put pop dots behind the fish to make him pop out from the coral in the background. Then I stamped Amuse stamp "best fishes!" in the bottom corner. Hope You Enjoy!

Fab 5 Day 3

Here is a super easy Fathers Day card made with Spellbinders Nestibilities Standard Circles Large. I folded a white piece of paper in half and when I ran it through the cuttlebug I didnt push the plates all the way through so it didnt cut through the paper all the way at the fold. Then I embossed the card with cuttlebug embossing folder the opposite way to give the white circle those golf ball like "dimples." Finished off with some ribbon and a those cute little Changito Monkeys we used for Fab Five last month. I wrote "fore you" on the front with a pen but the store does have "fore you" & other golf related stamps that are perfect for that golf loving dad.

Fab Five Day 2

Todays Project is a cupcake topper, the girls and I have been having a lot of fun creating these toppers, this one is perfect and easy for a Princess themed birthday party for a girl. Just cut out the crown, emboss and distess with pink ink, apply stickles for some extra BLING!! and Stamp Princess in the middle. :)

Fab Five Day 3

Dear Followers:
My update is a little later than I usually post it but I have some good reasons why; #1 Im in the middle of a nasty spring Wisconsin Storm, it started yesterday with rain, then some sleet and hail, and then some more rain, a thunderstorm over night and I woke up to this:

Can you see the road? probably not.

I planned to update my blog at school but they canceled (they never cancel) So I packed up my stuff, scraped all the ice off my car, and headed over to the in-laws (for internet) to post todays project, it didnt take me long to realize that it was a horrible idea, but I made it, after 45 minutes (I went 3 miles down the road)

My project today reminds me of warmer, sunnier days. To be exact, Broiler Fest (my hometown's carnival) Kickball Tournament, last year we won the championship. It was a warm sunny weekend, until the last day. It downpoured, but we had a ton of fun, and Im sure we looked something like a Changito Monkey running and slipping around in the mud, and jumping up and down when we won.

Supplies Used:

Changito Monkey Stampendous Stamps
My Minds Eye Paper
Copic Markers
Memento Ink
Hero Arts Jewels
