Thank You Upgrade

                 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 I changed things up to bring this card up to the next stamping level.

Here's my Spotlight Sunday card from yesterday on the TOP....

And my Mix-It-UP Monday upgraded card for today on the BOTTOM....

The first upgrade I made was change up the fold.  I used a 5-1/2"x8-1/2" piece of Bashful Blue cardstock.  It was scored at 4-1/4 ..... Then I cut the front of my card off at 2-3/4".

The inside of my card was designed to hold a Night of Navy and White panel.

 For the front of my card ..... I added a 2-1/2" x 4" panel of Night of Navy.  I topped that panel off with a 2-1/4" x 3-3/4" panel of my 'Dandy Design Designer Series Paper'.

My sentiment panel uses the 'Beautifully Happy' stamp set and I used my Stampin' Blends to color in that pretty floral image.

The finishing touch was adding some 'Night of Navy 3/8" Bordered Ribon' and I wrapped that around the left-hand edge of my front panel.

So, what do you think my friends....

Do you have a favorite???

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

 Happy Sunday My Blogger Friends

Today is Spotlight Sunday ....... And I have a card I created using product from the 2023 Stampin' UP! Mini Catalog.  This card uses several products from that new catalog ........ And I'm thrilled with the way it turned out.  Let's jump right in with my card share for today..........

I started my card off with a Bashful Blue base ...... And then I added a Night of Navy layer and layer of 'Dandy Design Designer Series Paper'.

The sentiment panel for my card is a Night of Navy and White panel.

I stamped my sentiment in the lower left-hand corner using the 'Beautifully Happy' set.  That same stamp set was used to stamp my pretty floral image.

The finishing touch was adding a tiny piece of 'Night of Navy 3/8" Bordered Ribbon' to the right-hand edge of my sentiment piece.

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

It's Your Day Candy Box

Happy Saturday My Blogger Friends!

Today I have another Saturday Sweet Treat packaging idea to share with you.  This project is a SUPER YUMMY, sweet treat packaging.  Let me jump right in with my share.

This box was designed by Sam Calcott in the UK.  I made a few modifications for my box but Sam did all the hard work for me.  Here is a link to her uTube video:  (60) Sloped Flip Lid Gift Boxes - YouTube

This rather large box opens up and has plenty of room for some YUMMY treats.

I used the 'Regency Park Designer Series Paper' to cover my box ..... And the base box uses Real Red cardstock.

I used the 'Stylish Shape Dies' for the window at the top of my box ..... And my pretty flowers were cropped out using the 'Petal Park Builder Punch'.

I created five BEAUTIFUL flowers for the top of my box .... And I used Real Red, Petal Pink and White cardstock to create those flowers.

My sentiment is from the 'Adorable Owls' set and I created a pretty banner flag with the help of the 'Stylish Shapes Dies'.

Hope you liked my share for today......

Thanks for stopping by.

Happy Birthday

Happy Friday My Blogger Friends!

Today is Fun Fold Friday and that means I have a special little Fun Fold Gift Card Holder to share with you. Let's kick off this Fun Fold Friday share right now.........

I couldn't be HAPPIER with the way this birthday card turned out.  I started with a 4-1/4" x 11" piece of Thick White cardstock.  It is scored at 5-1/2" and that is the base for my card.

Next, I added a panel of Fresh Freesia cardstock to the front of my card and that piece measures 4" x 10-1/4".  It is scored at 2-1/2" and 5".  This portion of the card is covered with White cardstock and 'Dandy Design Designer Series Paper'.

My sentiment is from the 'Best Day' stamp set and I used my Stampin' Blends to color that piece in

I wrapped some 'Fresh Freesia 3/8" Open-Weave Ribbon' around the top of my card and tied it up into a pretty bow.

My inside panel completes my birthday wish.

For the inside of my card ... I added a panel of Fresh Freesia cardstock.  That piece measures 4" x 5-1/4".

Just doesn't get any EASIER.

Hope you have fun making these!!!

Thanks for joining me today!  I'll be back tomorrow to begin sharing a special new Sweet Treat Saturday release with you ........Hope you can make plans to stop back and join me for that share.  Keep Living Your Dream!

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 TAG.  Now that you have the details for my Tag Thursday creation for this week ........ Let's jump right in with my tag share for today........

This tag just SCREAMS thank you in my book!

I started with a 2-1/2" x 4-1/4" White base tag.  I used the 'Something Fancy' stamp set and stamped that in the lower right-hand corner of my tag.

Next, I got busy and created three LOVELY flowers from the 'Around The Bend Dies'.  I used several cardstock colors to create those flowers.  Pool Party and Bermuda Bay and Flirty Flamingo and Melon Mambo.

Here's a close-up of how PRETTY the flowers look with some 'Fine Tip Glue Pen' added to the center of each flower.

And the finishing touch was adding some 'Pool Party Grosgrain Ribbon' to the top of my tag.

So, my friends .......

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........

The possibilities are ENDLESS with the design of this card.  All it takes is some different cardstock and Designer Series Paper ..... And you will be creating some GORGEOUS looking cards in NO TIME FLAT!!!!

I started my card off with a Fresh Freesia base.  To that, I added a panel of White cardstock and topped that panel off with two panels of the 'Danity Flowers Designer Series Paper'.  I used a 3-1/4" x 3-3/4" panel for the top ..... And a 1-3/4" x 3-3/4" panel for the bottom.

Before I adhered the DSP panels down ... I wrapped some 'Fresh Freesia 3/8" Open-Weave Ribbon' that was colored with my Highland Heather Stampin' Blends and tied it up into a pretty knot.

My sentiment is from the 'Something Fancy' stamp set and that was stamped onto two layering pieces from the 'Something Fancy Dies'.

And this card was called DONE!!!!

What do you think my friends.

Valentine's Match Book

Happy Tuesday My Blogger Friends!

My blog post for today is '3D TUESDAY'.  That means today I have a fun little 3-D project that I created and want to share with you.  This project was SUPER FUN to create ..... And I want to jump right in and share that project with you now.

This sweet Valentine's Match Book just couldn't be any EASIER to create.

It starts of with a 7-3/4" x 2-1/4" piece of Real Red cardstock.  It is scored on the long side at 3/4", 4-1/4" and 4-1/2".  I used the 'Enjoy the Journey Designer Series Paper' to cover the top and bottom flap.

I tucked a sweet little Ghirardelli chocolate to the inside.

And my sentiment is from the 'Somthing Fancy' stamp set.  I cropped out a large heart and used 'White Embossing Powder' to add some WOW FACTOR to the sentiment.

Hope you enjoyed my sweet little

3D creation for today.
