You make my HEART go BOOM BOOM!~

Hello my fellow stampers!

First I want to give a yell out....HAPPY NEW YEAR'S EVE!!  Hope you have a fun and safe New Year's Eve and a New Year full of fun creative memories!

Here is my project share for today.  It's a fun 'Z' pattern card!  Have you made these before?  They are so simple to create and FUN!!

Your card will measure 4 1/4" x 11"
Score it at 2 3/4" and 5 1/2"  Then fold in a Z pattern.
Your 'flap' piece will measure 3 x 3" and the layer at 2 3/4" x 2 3/4"
I used the stamp set Groovy Love, along with the Sweet Heart Punch.
~Now I know it might seem way too early to make Valentine cards, but you would use this card for an anniversary card too!  I wanted to use up some of my Christmas DSP stash with Very Vanilla.  Yes!! This one was made with Christmas Designer Series Paper!  Awesome, right?!

I also made up a sample using Sale-a-Bration DSP!  Starts January 5th!  EEEK!!  So excited!

Once you start making up these cards, you will have a stash in no time!!  They are so fun to make and you can easily use up your scrap pieces!  Plus, if you have small stamps you are not sure what to do with, you can use them on the 2 3/4" x 2 3/4" piece of card stock.

Thank you for joining me today!  Hope you enjoyed my project I had to share today, I really enjoyed creating these!

Snowman Thank you notes~

Hi Stampers!
Did you remember to check out the new Weekly Deals yesterday?  I missed posting a reminder!
You can find out what's new at www.starduststamper.stampinup.net

After Christmas, if you are like me, you will need thank you notes!  I thought I would start by making thank you notes for my preschool class.  I thought the snowman from the Snow Place Photopolymer stamp set was prefect for a cute little thank you note!  I also used Letterpress Winter stamp set which is no longer available.

I had to make 25 of them so I liked that these were so simple to put together!  Once I figured out how I wanted the card, I set up an assembly line.   I had all of them done in 30 minutes!  It was so much fun.

Thank you for stopping by.

Sneak Peak Monday! Striped Flower Birthday card~

Happy Monday to you!!  I hope your Christmas was a wonderful one and now on to the New Year's Celebration!

I thought I would share a project I made with a set from the Occasions Catalog!

I also wanted to use up some of my Christmas paper!  Didn't this card turn out nice?

If you have not played around with the new Curvy Corner Trio Punch, give me a call!!  It's so much fun!  I held off for a long time before I decided to get it, and wow!!  It adds so much to a simple card.

Thank you for joining me today!
Have a great week!!

Mason Jar Belly Band and Tag~final Christmas Count Down!

Hello Stampers and Hope you are having a wonderful Christmas Eve!
My Children and I baked all morning so we could pass out some treats to our neighbors and friends.  
What a fun memory maker!

I forgot to post this yesterday so I will share this with you today!  I was asked to create a label tag for a mason jar full of yummy apple pie filling.  I used two stamp sets to make these adorable labels.

The rich Cherry Cobbler card stock made for a beautiful color with the Dazzling Diamonds glimmer behind it. These turned out so nice I plan on making up a several to have on hand for other occasions!

Thank you for joining me today and hope you have a wonderful Christmas!

Butterfly Birthday card

Hello Stampers!

Happy Friday to you!  I think this little guy pretty much sums up how I feel about today.  I love Fridays' because I get to spend the weekend with my family!  Plus, if I get some down time I can play with my new stamps from Sale-a-Bration!!  Can you believe it's that time already?  Starting January 5th the New Occasions catalog and Sale-a-bration begins!  If you have placed an online order from me totaling $50.00 or more you will automatically receive one in the mail.  If you would like to get the new catalogs give me a call or message me and I can get a copy to you.

I took a break from the Christmas cards and projects to make some birthday cards. This is one of them.

I used a retired sentiment for the Birthday greetings along with the DSP.  The card stock is Wild Wasabi.  The butterfly is from the beautiful Photopolymere Watercolor Wings, which is in the annual catalog. 

I love the two step stamps.  You can make the ordinary look extraordinary!  Plus with a dash of Dazzling Diamonds glitter it makes the butterfly really pop! 

Thank you for joining me today!  
Have a great weekend.  

Joy of Holly Christmas card

Hello my fellow stampers!
My goodness it seems like December just flies by!  Why can't tax season do the same?  ha-ha!!

Here is my project share for today.
I made this card with the Vintage Leaves stamp set with the coordinating Leaflets Framelits. I got the "Joy" sentiment from the Wonderful Wreath Framelits and cut it out in Gold foil using the Big Shot.

To attach the "Joy" I used the AWESOME Fine-Tip Glue Pen, If you have not tried it and would like to give me a call, it makes attaching detailed projects very simple!

For the holly berries I used a Sharpie Marker and colored the pearls.  I was not sure which direction I liked the card better so I arranged it both directions.  Which one do you like best?

Thanks for stopping by!
Have a great week...It's almost Friday, hooray!!  Another busy weekend planned in the Fladager house hold but it's all good!

Merry Poinsettia card~ Christmas Count Down

Hello Stampers!

Hooray for Friday!!  End of another work week and another weekend to get my packages ready to be shipped!  How about you?  Are you ready for Christmas?

Here is my project share for today.  I made with it using the beautiful DSP in the Holiday catalog, Season of Cheer.  I added Dazzling Diamonds glitter to the poinsettia leaves and to the center using the 2 way glue.

I think adding the gold Metallic Foil Doily really added to the card.

I had a small strip left over so I placed it inside of the card, it really dressed up the inside nicely.

Thank you for joining me today!

If you have any questions please let me know.  Have a great weekend!!  
See you again on Monday.

Christmas Tree Tags~Christmas Count Down

Hello my fellow Stampers!
Hope today brings you a smile!  Mostly because it's almost Friday, but also because I have another project to share with you!

My daughter wanted to make up some tags for her teacher and so I decided to use the Hostess set Antique Tags to create these.   I added Dazzling Details Cherry Cobbler, it's so much fun to use and it adds such pretty details!

I stamped them on Very Vanilla in Cucumber Crush and the sentiment in Real Red .  Punched it out with the Note Tag punch then tied Cherry Cobbler Baker's Twine to the end of the tag.

Thank you very much for joining me today!
If you have any questions please let me know.

Have a great day~

Penguin Treat Topper~Christmas Count Down!

Hello my crafty friends!
Here is it already Wednesday, we are half way through the week.  Christmas is coming fast!  I wanted to make some fun little treat toppers for some candy I found at our local store.  My youngest son just loves the Penguins From Madagascar movie so when I seen some cute little Chocolate candies in the store I had to pick them up for him and then being I am a preschool teacher I decided to go back and get more for my class!

After I got home I was trying to think of a stamp I could use to make a cute bag topper.  Lucky for me I happen to have my Snow Place Photopolymer stamp set on my desk and knew I just had to use the cute little penguin!

Using the matching framelits made it a snap to cut these out!  I used Soft Sky ink to stamp the snow flakes on Whisper White card stock to stick the little penguin candy on and Soft Sky card stock to make the topper.  I then simply stamped Merry Christmas in Black Stazon ink.

A fast and cute project that the children will love!

Thank you for stopping by, hope you enjoyed this cute little project!

Antique Santa~ Christmas Count Down

Hello my crafty friends,
I had one crazy week last week!  I was preparing for the last craft show of the season so I didn't find time to pop on and share a project or two but now I am done with the craft shows so it's time to catch up!

Here is my project share for today!
I love the Santa from Santa's List, (retired).  I added it to the DSP from the Holiday Catalog Home for Christmas.  I just love the music sheet.  

I found out that stamping it in Soft Suede on Very Vanilla card stock gives it a beautiful antique look. Along with the a sprinkle of Dazzling Diamonds glitter on Santa's clothes.

I played around with the ribbon a little bit and cut it at an angle and then banner.  In the end after making 10 of them I liked the banner cut best.  How about you?

Thank you for joining me today.
Hope you have a fantastic week!

If you have any questions please let me know.

Christmas Among the Winter Branches

Hello my fellow Stampers!
I hope everyone enjoyed their Thanksgiving dinner!  Now that Thanksgiving is over we are on a full 'race' to Christmas!  My children are ready to set up the Christmas tree and get the presents under the tree!  LOL Instead of in mom's closet!

Here is my project share for today!

I used the Photopolymer stamp set, Among the Branches to create this festive Christmas card. It's such a simple lay out but I just love it.

Thanks for joining me today!
