Happy Friday! I'm back today with more Tea Boutique Suite. I love our Kraft colored boxes with these gold dots. These boxes are perfect for a small treat or gift. These boxes ship flat in a package of eight. I think they'd be great as a thank you or party favor for a shower or a party. You could use them for teacher thank you gifts. In this picture, you can see the pretty scallop detail along the edge of the lid. These boxes are 3.5 x … [Read more...] about Thank You
Cup of Tea
One of my favorite Suites from the new Catalog is the Tea Boutique Suite. I love the stamp set with the matching dies, and the adorable pattern paper. The pattern paper is a 6x6" pad. The patterns on the 6x6" paper are reduced down, which is perfect for card-making. The finished card is 4.25" x 4.5". I started out with a standard card size of 4.25" x 5.5". Then I scored the bottom 1" up. On the right side, I trimmed off the card stock at … [Read more...] about Cup of Tea
May Sampler-Grad
Happy Monday! Today I'm sharing my May Sampler. With my son just graduating from college, I knew the perfect sampler for May would be a graduation sampler. This sampler has a place to add the year of your Class and a picture of your graduate. Knowing that schools have lots of different colors, I tried to give some basic options to match a number of schools. This kit comes in three different color versions: blue and yellow, black and yellow, … [Read more...] about May Sampler-Grad

I just received my May Paper Pumpkin kit and I couldn't wait to open my box. May's kit had an opportunity to win a $25 Golden Voucher that you could spend on Stampin Up products.

Sweet Songbirds
Happy Monday! They say the early bird gets the worm. This sweet little songbird is singing a happy tune. I don't know if it's because he got the worm or if he's just happy to be singing on his branch. I love the In Color Glimmer paper. I love that it has an ombre pattern with the light to dark. For my bird, I was able to punch out the belly in the lighter shade of the Sweet Sorbet to match the body in the darker Sweet Sorbet. I used my … [Read more...] about Sweet Songbirds

I don't know what it is, but I'm really looking forward to this weekend. Some weeks are just like that.

Oh my goodness, this pattern paper just makes my heart … [Read more...] about Happy Fri-YAY!
Happiness Abounds
One of my favorite stamp sets from the Catalog pre-order is the Happiness Abounds bundle. I absolutely love the coordinating pattern paper. For today's card I chose the rainbow sheet and matched my flower colors to the paper. I used my blending brush to add a bit of yellow to the tag just to soften the white color. And then edged the ink with a bit of pink to help it stand out. Then I added a lot of the iridescent rhinestones because I love … [Read more...] about Happiness Abounds
