Love You Forever

Just a quick card and pretty easy as well. The background Paper is shimmery and so pretty! It was from the shimmer pack DCWV, can you believe I have had it forever and hardly used any of it?!?!

Anyway, do you see that delicious ribbon? Well I picked that up from Taylored Expressions and I think I want...NEED more in more colors!

Sorry for the blurry picture but you get the idea! LOL

Thanks for stopping by!

Smooching Cupcakes!

I kinda like this card but seriously need to use my Copics more! I must be hooked on bling since last Friday because all my cards are blingy. This card has a strip of rhinestones along the bottom of the pattern paper. By the way, is the new pattern paper from PTI not the best black patterns you have ever seen? I love them! Well I am off to try and create "Something" from our new challenge selection for tomorrows Loonie Stampers Challenge. Be sure to come back and see what my 3:00 am adventures in my craft room may bring!

Loonie Stampers Challenge #13

Welcome to Loonie Stampers Challenge #13. This week's color selection was made by the Lovely Wendy! She was even kind enough to reference the PTI colors to the SU colors. I will note that we had some discussion on the new PTI colors matching a bit better to the SU colors. I say...whatever use what you got! I LOVE this color combo. WTG Wendy!!

This week I chose to use a non Papertrey Set to stamp with. What can I say, I just could NOT help myself. When these cute little babies were delivered to my door this morning at 8:15 am (My mailman is on the ball I guess). This sweet little cupcake is from the Taylored Expressions Season's Sweetings set. SO FRIGGIN CA-UTE!!!

So the basics:
*Aqua Mist Card Based followed by a Spring Moss matte for the Silver Shimmer, which I embossed with the Ornaments Cuttlebug Folder.
*Aqua Mist Grosgrain Ribbon tied in a simple knot
*Punched out a giga scalloped circle and a mega circle, then stamped the cutey pa tootie stamp using the full size black memento ad (also purchased from Taylor's)
*Then I colored in the cupcake with my Copics, How did I ever get by with out them before???
*Then I attached the circles to the card and also stamped and added the sentiment.

Last but certainly not least, I used puffy paint to do all the snow around the cupcake, falling from the sky, dotting the scallops and at the bottom to help bring the flow of the snow through the whole card. (McKayla would be so proud that I just rhymed...lol)

So as not to disappoint, here is the inside also complete with a bit of snow. I realize it will get a little smooched but it actually smooches nicely. (is smooches a real word? OK whatever all you grammar freaks beware of this post cuz I don't care! LOL)

Oh one final note. I used my heat gun to dry the puffy. I like the real looking results for snow!

Now please go and check out my Loonie Friends and spread some lovin' the comments. Also I cant wait to see what YOU can, yes you reading this right now. So link us up so we can come leave you some comments as well.

Trick or Treat!

This is a picture of the entire package I made for my Daughter's Kindergarten Class! There was enough for 12 kids and 2 sets left over for the teachers Kids.

First I started buy creating my own template for this cute little box that perfectly fits 5 packages of rockets (called Smarties as well) Then I simple assembled them, wrapped with decorative paper and added the cupcake guys!! Are those not the cutest? They called trick or sweet from Taylored Expressions! I colored them in with my copic markers and boy was that fun!

...and look I even managed to make them so that they will stand up on their own!

Next I bought the little favour tins from Michael's that you can find in the wedding section. I bought them using my 40% off coupon which makes 30 tins really affordable. Then I wrapped them with Halloween pattern paper and ribbon on the lids. As a final touch I used the little circle labels that came with them and stamped the word Boo from my Making Memories Halloween Set and stuck them on.

Then I got online and search for a non toxic but scented play dough recipe. It was SO easy to make and no one has to worry if their child decides play dough is a great snack! I found the recipe HERE. There are lots of nifty things you can make on that list but I used the kool-aid recipe.

Overall everyone was happy I think and I may even make some more play dough for the kids in my family at Christmas time.

Have a great day people!! Oh and my brand new floors are almost done, I can't wait to show you pictures from my entire main floor!!!
