Baby Trophy Pop Up Card

Happy Wednesday My Blogger Friends!

My blog post for today is Wine-Down Wednesday.  My middle of the week card feature for today will hopefully offer you some inspiration and provide you with some motivation to keep you moving through your busy week.  Let's jump right in with my card share for today........

This is a FABULOUS pop-up trophy style card.

When you slide the center panel down.......

It springs up and reveal a fun little sentiment center panel.

Here is what the backside of the card looks like.  And this would be the perfect location to write your special message.

For the base of my card I used Mint Macaroon cardstock ...... And I ran it through the Big Shot and used the 'Lucky Star' embossing folder to create a soft embossed look.

Here are the measurements for my Baby Trophy Card.  Base Card (Mint Macaroon) is 4-1/4" x 10" and scored at 1-1/4", 2-1/2", 3-3/4", 5", 6-1/4", 7-1/2" and 8-3/4".  The center Very Vanilla panel is 3" x 5-1/4" and the Mint Macaroon center panel is 3-1/4" x 5-1/2".  Hope you have fun making one of these fun little cards.

Post It Note & Pen Holder

Happy Tuesday My Blogger Friends!

My blog post for today is 3-D Tuesday.  That means today I have a fun little 3-D project to share with you.  This project is SUPER FUN to make and was featured on www.libbystampz.com (December 1, 2016).  Libby created this darling little Post-It-Note and Pen Holder and I just had to give it a go.  The product featured on my holder is from the new 2017-2018 Stampin' UP! Annual Catalog.  Let's jump right in with my project share for today.......

HOW STINKIN' CUTE IS THIS.......

There is a box that holds 3x3 Post-It-Notes on one side......

And on the other side is a box holds your pens and pencils.

To cover my holder......I used the new 'Fresh Florals Designer Series Paper Stack'.....

And I used the 'Crafting Forever' set that is in the new catalog to attach my two boxes together.

A SUPER FUN project that came together in no time flat.  Many thanks to Libby for sharing this fantastic project on her blog.

Upgraded Berry Burst Card

Happy Monday My Blogger Friends!

Today is Mix It UP! Monday and I have an upgraded version of the card I shared with you yesterday.  I used the exact same product that was used to create yesterday's card ....... but added a couple additional products (found in both the current 2016-2017 Stampin' UP! Annual Catalog and the NEW 207-2018 Annual Catalog) to bring this card up to the next stamping level.

Here is my Spot Light Sunday on the LEFT......

And today's upgraded Mix-It-UP! Monday version on the RIGHT....

This upgraded version just makes my heart SMILE BIG!

I used the same 'Fresh Florals Designer Series Paper Stack' to add some fun Berry Burst paper along the bottom of my card.......

And I added a Powder Pink scallop edge to the top of my Designer Series Paper ........ And to get that look, I used the scallop edge die from the 'Popcorn Box Thinlits' dies.  I also wrapped some Whisper White Baker's Twine around my Designer Series Paper and tied it up in a pretty bow.

The medallion was created from the 'Eastern Medallions Thinlits' and I added one additional layer on my Powder Pink cardstock for this upgraded version.

I simply love the different looks you can create with the 'Eastern Medallions Thinlits' dies.

So there you have it friends.......

Is there one that you like the best?

 

Thanks for joining me today!  I'll be back tomorrow to share a 3-D Tuesday creation with you ...... Hope you can make plans to stop back and join me for that share.  Keep Living Your Dream! 

Berry Burst Thank You Card

Happy Sunday My Blogger Friends!

Today is Spotlight Sunday ....... And I have a card I created using product from the new 2017-2018 Stampin' UP! Annual Catalog (that will be released June 1st).  This card uses several new products from that catalog .......... So let me jump right in with my card share for today.........

This card spot-lights the new 2017-2019 Stampin' UP! In-Color Berry Burst.

I started out by adding a small panel of the new 'Fresh Florals Designer Series Paper Stack' to the bottom of my Whisper White base card.

My medallion piece was made using the 'Eastern Medallions Thinlits Dies' and the new Berry Burst and Powder Pink In-Colors.

My sentiment was stamped with the Berry Burst ink using the new 'Label Me Pretty' set.........

And that's all it took for me to complete this pretty card.

Thanks for joining me today!  I'll be back tomorrow to share an upgraded version of this very card with you ...... Hope you can make plans to stop back and join me for that share.  Keep Living Your Dream!

Paper Pumpkin Saturday BEST YOU

Happy Saturday My Blogger Friends!

My blog post for today is Paper Pumpkin Saturday ........... And do I have a SERIOUSLY HAPPY CARD to share with you!  This card was created using the April 'Sara Thing' Paper Pumpkin kit.  I only added cardstock and Baker's Twine to complete this card ........ Let me share that card with you now......

There is something DELIGHTFUL TO THE EYE when you have a Whisper White card with LOTS of white space on it.

I started out by using my Simply Score Board around the outer edges of  my Whisper White base card.  I created two embossed lines around my card and that created an instant frame to the center of my card.

My black and white striped DSP was cut down from the cardstock included in this kit.  All I did was wrap some Cherry Cobbler Baker's Twine around this DSP panel and tied it up into a pretty bow before attaching it to my card.

My sentiment was stamped onto a Real Red Stitched Frame Circle and dimensionals were added to the back of that circle before adhering it down onto my card.

Just love how this card turned out and immediately sent it off to a dear sweet friend.

 

Thanks for joining me today!  I'll be back tomorrow to share a Spot Light Sunday card with you ...... Hope you can make plans to stop back and join me for that share.  Keep Living Your Dream!

Hip Hip Hooray Daisy Tag

Happy Thursday My Blogger Friends!

My blog post for today is Tag Thursday.  Today, I will feature a tag I created and show you how easy it is to use minimal supplies to create a SUPER PRETTY GIFT TAG.  Now that you have the details for this weeks Tag Thursday ....... Let's jump right in with my tag share for today.......

\

These two tags came together with the new 'Daisy Delight' stamp set and 'Daisy Punch'.  Both will be offered in the 2017-2018 Stampin' UP! Annual Catalog ......... That will be released June 1st.

I started this tag off by adding a small piece of the new 'Delightful Daisy Designer Series Paper' across the bottom of my tag.  Next, I stamped the Hip Hip Hooray sentiment from the 'Happy Birthday Gorgeous' set (also available June 1st) onto a small panel of Daffodil Delight cardstock.

How pretty are these two daisies that are made from Daffodil Delight and Night of Navy cardstock.

I finished off both daisies with a 'Silver Faceted Gem' that also will be available on June 1st.

And both of my tags were topped off with some 'Daffodil Delight 1/4" Double-Stitched Ribbon (also available June 1st).

Such a PRETTY & HAPPY tag.....

That will without a doubt make someone smile big when they receive it.

Stencil Card With Die-Cut Flower

Happy Wednesday My Blogger Friends!

My blog post for today is Wine-Down Wednesday.  My middle of the week card feature for today will hopefully offer you some inspiration and provide you with some motivation to keep you moving through your busy week.  Let's jump right in with my card share for today........

This PRETTY notecard was made with the GORGEOUS 'Stylish Stems Framelits Dies' and some Peekaboo Peach ink.

All I did was die-cut out the large flower in this framelits set onto a large piece of Whisper White cardstock and used that die-cut piece as a stencil.



The die-cut stencil was placed over a Whisper White notecard top panel and then with one of my Sponge Daubers ......... I simply started daubing in my Peekaboo Peach ink onto the stencil.  It was like magic, when I lifted the stencil off my panel and saw the beautiful flower that was left behind.

This FUN & FLIRTY banner flag was created using some Subtles Designer Series Paper along with some Silver Glimmer Paper.  A small piece of Peekaboo Peach Ruched Ribbon and Silver Sequin Trim was added to the top of that banner flag and all it took was one single staple to pull it all together.

My sentiment was stamped from the 'Bunch of Blossoms' set with Peekaboo Peach ink.....

And the final touch was adding a few Silver Sequin Trims around the front of my card.  I ended up making two of this card and packaged it up into a pretty portfolio that I will share with you soon.

 

Thanks for joining me today!  I'll be back tomorrow with a Tag Thursday creation to share with you ........ Hope you can make plans to stop back and join me for that share.  Keep Living Your Dream!
