As I promised I have have another project to share from the Paper Pumpkin kit in January (THIS REFILL KIT IS AVAILABLE ON LINE!   They had so many fun 'Conversation' hearts that you are able to do several projects!  YAY!!  

One of the projects shared in the instructions were these super cute heart pouches!  Don't you just love them?  I placed gum in the packages for my daughter to share with her friends.

I stamped using the amazing photopolymer stamp set that comes with the actual kit,(not the refill).  They are so much fun and easy to make!  You could use your framelits to cut out two large hearts then using Fast Fuse just seam them together.

Valentine Count Down!

Hello my crafty friends!

I didn't know if I was going to have the time to get this done or not, but YAY!!! I did. My Valentine Count Down!

Between my preschool training course I am taking (60 hours of continuing ED plus 'homework'), teaching my preschool class and preparing for class, my love for Stampin' Up! and crafts  and my wonderful family actives I have a very busy few months!  So if I skip a day or two I have not forgotten about you!  It's just that I have not had time to sit and up load my projects.   

Thanks to Stampin' Up!'s Paper Pumpkin kit for January I was able to make this super cute Valentine's day Count down.

To make the tags for the treats I simply print out on regular copy paper the list of candy sayings and then attach it to Stampin' Up card stock, I chose Perfect Plum, Real Red, and Melon Mambo.  I then used clips, clamps, punched holes and use ribbon, baker's twine or Fast Fuse to attach the saying to the item.

I have been asked in the past what I use for sayings.  It kind of varies on what treats or drinks I purchase so I thought I would make up a simple list to share!   You can see  MY VALENTINE CANDY SAYINGS IDEAS HERE. I come up with different ones for my husband and kids.  I also will change it up if I find a new candy or treat! The main thing is to have fun with it!

Back to the project!  I made a count down with the hearts from January's Paper Pumpkin.
Using the new set Number of Years I made the countdown to 14.  They have so many hearts in this cute kits I was able to create several projects!  YAY!! I will share more late on in the week!

It's so much fun to count down each day to Valentine's day!  On the back of each number there is a scavenger hunt to find their treat along with a fun family activity planned for after school!  Such as sledding, bowling, board games, and making then decorating cookies!
Your kids are only kids for a short time, enjoy every minute of it!!

Hope you enjoyed this project!  Have a fun week!

Ouch! Get well soon~ card

Hi Stampers!

Here is my project for today.  this is a super simple card I made with some scraps of Crumb Cake and Blushing Bride Glimmer Paper,  

I wanted it for a Get Wall card so on the inside I stamped "Get Well Wishes" but on the outside I stamped "Praying for You".  I took the flower stamp and bent it so it would curl around the words.

I added 'dots' using my stylus.  Place it on a foam mat then gently push down on the card stock.  After I made this one I made another one and made the dots more uniformed.  LOL

Thank you for joining me today!  I hope this card brings you inspiration to create your own get well cards!  :)

Cancer Can't....Cards

Hello Stampers!

I am so glad you joined me today.  I wanted to share some cards I made for some dear friends who were diagnosed with Cancer.  Ugh, what an ugly word!

I got the poem off line and just typed it up on my computer and printed it out on Whisper White card stock.

The card stock is Early Espresso and retired Crisp Cantaloupe.

Chocolate Chip, Old Olive and retired DSP.

Although the stamps I used are no longer available you can use the lay out for your own creation.

Chai Tea Holder ~using the Envelope Punch Board.

Hello Stampers!
Happy Monday to you!  I hope you had a wonderful weekend and was able to spend some time on crafting!

Here is my project share for today.  My mom loves Chai tea and I happened to find some at our little coffee shop in town.  So I picked up one and thought I would use the Envelope Punch Board to make a little holder for it.  Being it's 'poofy' you can't just make a simple envelope so I created this one just for this package of tea, although I know you could use it to put lots of other items in!

What you need:
7 1/2" x 7 1/2" piece of card stock
Using your Envelope Punch Board (if you don't have one click HERE to see it at my store)
-Punch and score your 1st mark at 3" then SLIDE to 3 1/2" score ONLY.
-Turn and punch then score following the lines for two times only, the last turn punch on the 2nd score line ONLY do not score.
I then used the Curvy Corner Trio Punch to add a beautiful top.

I wanted to add a little something to the front so I used the beautiful Bloomin' Heart Thinlits Dies to create this beautiful heart cut out of Blushing Bride Glimmer Paper.

I then wanted to create a "Now & Wow" project by adding a piece of Basic Black card stock behind the Glimmer paper, and adding a sentiment to the back of the box.

The stamp set that I picked the sentiment from is Botanicals for You I got it for FREE!  Yes!  You can get this amazing stamp set from the Sale-a-Bration catalog with a simple Stampin' Up order of only $50.00.

Contact me for more information on how you can receive FREE products from Stampin' Up! and with your purchases you can earn FREE products from me as well!  How fun is that?

Thank you for joining me today,
Hope you have a great week.

Origami Folded Pocket treat holder~

Hello my stamping friend!
So glad you joined me today.  I have a fun little tutorial to share with you today.
I am sure you have seen these cute little pockets but I have not made them for awhile and thought I would make up some to put Pop Rocks in.  Yes, I great up in the 90's!  LOL  My children love to give these to their friends.

What you'll need:
I used a piece of Love Blossoms Designer Series Paper Stack but if you are using regular card stock cut it to 6" x 6"

Fold it in half corner to corner to create a triangle.

Next you are going to grab the bottom left corner and bring straight over about half way and crease.
Do that for both sides.

Finally take the first layer and fold over the two small triangles to create a pocket.  Best part...NO glue or adhesive is need!  :)

How simple and fun was that?  Plus with the paper stacks that Stampin' Up! has to offer you can make these in a snap!  You can also check out the clearance rack for paper stacks that are retiring for a discounted price!

Thanks for stopping by!
