With Sympathy~

Hello Stampers!
So glad you could join me today.
Although they are sad to have to create, I have a sympathy card to share with you today.  I always try to have them on hand because I always have a hard time creating one after I have learned about someone passing.

I used the Flourishing Phrases stamp set and Flourish Thinlits.   I used Marina Mist and Basic Black Cardstock.  Another bad lighting day when I took the picture.

In this picture it almost has a yellow glow to it.  It is still a pretty card for such a sad occasion.  The black glitter bow is some ribbon I had on hand that I picked up at Michaels' Craft Store.

If you have any questions about this project or would like more information about hosting a workshop or attending one of my classes please let me know.

Thank you for joining me today!

I thank my lucky Stars for you!

Hello Stampers!
Thank you for stopping by!

I really like how these cards turned out!  Here's my project share for today.  They are super simple too!

 I simply used my Stampin' Up Confetti Stars Border punched it twice on Whisper White card stock and stamped a sentiment from Great Impressions in Navy Blue.

Then using Stampin' Dimensionals I popped it up on a Navy Blue card base.

I used the Stars Framelits and cut out the two smallest ones.  I also punched one out from the Itty Bitty Punch pack that is now retired.  

I think this project turned out so pretty.

Thank you for taking time from your busy day to stop by!

4th of July Candy holders

Hello Stampers!
Can you believe it's 4th of July weekend already?  Yikes!!  Our summer is flying by!

I wanted to make some simple little candy hand outs for friends on the 4th.  I remembered the nugget holder I made into a bunny and thought that would work out well.

If you don't remember the instructions here they are again.

First you will need a strip of card stock, I used Night of Navy cut to 1 1/2" x 5"

 Scored at 2 and 3 inches.

Fold up and the cut a piece of card stock for the front.  I also used Real Red, Silver Glimmer paper and Night of Navy to punch out stars to decorate the front.  After punching a hole with a 1/4" hole punch I tied it shut with ribbon I found at Michael's craft store.

After closing it up I put two mini candy bars, but you can also use Hershey's Nuggets.

Hope your Independence day is a great celebration.
Thank you for joining me today!

Hope you have a Bomb Pop 4th of July!

Hello my crafting friends!

The 4th of July is sneaking up on me!  Rather you head out to the lake to have some fun camping and fishing or head to be the beach, we're all out having some fun and celebrating our Independence!

I don't know if it's because it's so hot outside or I just wanted to make a 'Bomb Pop'  but this is the 1st thing I thought of for my 4th of July card.  LOL   I also wanted to use my stamp set I found at Michael's  I have used this set before, I really like the swirls in this set.

Plus, it's a photopolymer!

To hold the Real Red and Pacific Point card stock and Glimmer Paper, (all cut at 1 1/2 x 1 inch) I taped the back to keep it from slipping around when I stick to the Whisper White card stock that I stamped a swirl in Real Red.  Before I stuck it for good, I put a small scrap of Crumb Cake for a stick.

The sentiment is from a retired SU set.  I think it's time to go to the store and pick some up, yum!!

Thank you for joining me today!

Life is a sweet Celebration!

Hello my stamping friends!
