Sorry – again – for the sporadic posting to my blog. Not enough hours in the day to make things and write about them and, let’s face it, making them is so much more fun!
First are a couple of projects we made at my recent Mommy & Me classes focused on Valentine’s day. The sweet treat cups are just prefect for making “flowers”.
Stamp sets – Love You Much, Friends Rock
Cardstock & DP – Real Red, Very Vanilla, Sending love DP (current mini)
Inks – Read Red
Accessories – Red gingham ribbon, Horizontal slot punch, Scallop edge punch, Heart to Heart punch, Big Shot Scalloped Heart of Hearts embosslit (current mini), Corner rounder punch
Sorry for the not-so-great photo of this project. I was too lazy to take another one. For the class we used Valentine m&ms and candy conversation hearts instead of the beads.
Stamp Sets – Sweet Centers (holiday mini), Simply Said (heart on tag)
Cardstock & DP – Real Red, Whisper White, Sending love DP
Inks - Real Red
Accessories – Red polka dot ribbon, Sweet treat cup, Silver cord (holiday mini), Full heart punch, 1/16″ circle punch, popsicle stick, mini pail, tissue paper, florist’s foam, red glass beads.
Last thing to share for now is the “practice” card for the one sent out for the monthly swap I was participating in. The final version had some paper piercing and the sentiment was stamped on Very Vanilla cardstock, punched out and popped up using dimensionals. Love this new patterned paper – it just screams “spring”.
Stamp Sets – Great friend, Vintage Labels (SAB set)
Cardstock & DP – Certainly Celery, So Saffron, Orchid Opulence, Vellum, Shades of Spring DP (current mini)
Inks - Certainly Celery, Basic Black, Versamark
Accessories – White embossing powder, Vanilla Hodgepodge Hardware, Half preals (pretties kit)
I’ll try and share some of the trial cards for my spring stamp-a-stack later this week once I’ve finished up the Valentine’s goodies for my girls to give their friends.
