For You...

Hi All
A simple card today using some Stampin' Up goodness.
I started by adhering 3 strips of pattern paper from the Festival of Prints Designer series paper stack on Very Vanilla(101650) card stock, then run it through the Honeycomb(129378) embossing folder. I stamped this 'For You' label from the Layered Labels(127072) stamp set in Island Indigo(126986) and Cherry Cobbler(126966), die cut the Island Indigo piece using the Apothecary Accent dies(127003) and punched the Cherry Cobbler using the 1 3/4" x 7/8" Large oval punch(119855) and popped it up using stampin' dimensionals. Punched a hole on either end of the label and attached it with Linen Thread(104199).
The Beautiful Wings Embosslits die(118138) was used to make the lovely butterflies which I adhered with glue dots.
I then put the whole on a Island Indigo(122923) card base.
Remember if you need to, you can order 24/7 by clicking on my Stampin' Up site.
I posted this on Little Scrap Pieces challenge blog.

FCCB 149 - Kiss the Cook

Hi All,
A new challenge over at the Fantabulous Cricut Challenge Blog today.
This time its, Kiss the Cook... Include a recipe on your project.
I used my Gypsy to weld this martini glass from the Nifty Fifties cartridge to a 4 1/14" x 5 1/2" craft card base. I've had this stamp for so long and just now had a chance to use it. 
It's a recipe for cosmopolitans. 
I added a Happy Birthday stamp from Stampin' Up.

The designer paper is Beach Babe form Fancy Pants Designs and the ribbon is Dollar Store.

Wish You Were Here...


Just another card today.
I made this one using this stamp set from
Love this set, its so girly.
I coloured up the image using my Copic Markers, cut it out and popped it up using some Stampin' demensionals on Whisper White. By backing the image with some Old Olive cardstock from Stampin' Up, I was able to tie it to the designer paper from 
Crate Paper, the 6x6 paper pad is called Farmhouse
I then added a button and some twine and adhered it to a card base of 
Cherry Cobbler, also Stampin' Up.
Thanks so much for stoppin' in...

FCCB 147 - Queen of Hearts

"Popping up... to say Happy Valentine's Day"
Hi all,
The challenge this week over at the Fantabulous Cricut Challenge blog is Queen of Hearts, include a heart on a project.
So I came up with this shape card looking through my Cricut cartridges for inspiration. 
When I saw this cute toaster, the sentiment came to me immediately. 
The sweet little toaster is from The Nifty Fifties cartridge and the 
Heart popping out of the toaster is from Accent Essentials.
I used Lawn Fawn's Jessie's ABC's to make the sentiment (the rest is on the inside).
Be sure to check out the other talented ladies.
