Lovely Day Kit

Happy Saturday My Blogger Friends!
My blog post for today is Paper Pumpkin Saturday ........... And I would like to share with you the project I created using the February Lovely Day Paper Pumpkin kit.   Here's that project.......
 
Check out these SUPER FUN EVERY DAY kind of Birthday cards that are ready to make with the Lovely Day kit.  Way to Go Stampin' UP!......Way to GO!!!
 
This "lovely" looking card is perfect for that someone frilly on your birthday list.
 
The beautiful floral image is fantastic......but the "lovely" message puts this card OVER THE TOP!
 
And check out this AWESOME card.
 
There is SO MUCH TO CELEBRATE with this card.
 
 And the final card in this kit is this "Wishes" card.
 
Probably my favorite in this kit ........ And the main reason is the layering stamp can be done in any color which stretches this stamps capacity to the limit.  Can't wait to make a pink layering cake with this stamp set.
 
 And talk about giving each of these cards a finishing touch......
How FABULOUS do they look with these GREAT envelopes!!!

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!

Lady Bug 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 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........
  
Every single year during Sale-a-Bration........One FREE set steals my heart.  This year it has to be the ADORABLE 'Little Ladybug' set.   I can promise you......this set will be staying in my FOREVER TO KEEP stash.
 
I started my tag off with a Real Red base tag and then stamped my sentiment at the bottom.  I used the 'Tags in Bloom' set......Along with VersaMark ink and 'Whisper White Embossing Powder'.
 
Next, I die-cut the White circle out with the help of the 'Painted Labels Dies' (another KEEP FOREVER die-cut set).
 
I stamped and positioned two cute little ladybugs (from the 'Little Ladybug' set and 'Ladybug Dies') onto the front of that die-cut circle.  And colored those cute little ladybugs with the help of my 'Stampin' Blends'.
 
All that was left to do was add some 'Whisper White 3/8" Metallic-Edge Ribbon' to the top of my tag and calling this tag ALMOST DONE!!!
 
To finish off my tag........
I did add 3-Rhinestones around the front of my tag......
And 2-Red Rhinestones to the White circle piece.

Thanks for joining me today!  I'll be back tomorrow to share some Friends Friday creations with you ........ Hope you can make plans to stop back and join me for that share.  Keep Living Your Dream!

February Downline 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........
 
 Check out this pretty congrats card I made for my downline team.
 
I started off with a panel of the pretty 'From My Heart Specialty Designer Series Paper' across the top of my Real Red base card.
 
I added a thin piece across the bottom of my DSP panel and added a pretty 'Whisper White Baker's Twine' bow in the center.
 
I left the bottom portion of my base card exposed ..... And that was the perfect space for my 'Heart Doilies' sentiment piece to land.
 
I used layers of the 'Heart Doilies' and a punched Flirty Flamingo heart (from the 'Heart Punch Pack') to create all that prettiness.
 
And for my sentiment......I created a pretty banner flag from the Sale-a-Bration 'Thoughtful Blooms' set.
So what do you think my friends........
Think my downline team members LOVED receiving this card!!!

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!

For You Embellishment Gift

Happy Tuesday My Blogger Friends!
My blog post for today is 'CASE IT TUESDAY'.  That means today I have a fun little 3-D project that I found on the internet ....... And I created a CASE of that project to share with you today.  This project was SUPER FUN to create and I want to jump right in and share that project with you now.
 
 Who does gift packaging better than Patty Bennett?????
She shared a version of this packaging idea on her blog.......
And I just had to give it a try.
 
All it took to create this embellishment gift packaging was some 'Heart Doilies' and 'From My Heart Specialty Designer Series Paper'.
 
 And of course.......
A package of the 'Peaceful Poppies Sequins'.
 
To start this project off.......
Wrap some DSP around the package of sequins and adhere closed.
 
Next.....Add one of the 'Heart Doilies' to the top and finish off by punching out one of the hearts featured in the 'From My Heart DSP'.  It's a SNAP punching out that heart with the new 'Heart Punch Pack'.
 
I added some 'Whisper White Baker's Twine' around the center of the DSP......And tied it up into a pretty bow before calling this project DONE!!!
 
 So there you have it friends......
Who wouldn't LOVE receiving a package of these pretty sequins.....
But packaging it up like this......
Takes it to the next Gift Giving Level.

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!

LadyBug Thanks 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 added a couple additional products found in the 2020 Stampin' UP! Mini Catalog to bring this card up to the next stamping level.
 
  Here's my Spot Light Sunday card from yesterday on the LEFT.....
And my Mix-It-UP! Monday upgraded card for today on the RIGHT.....
 
The first change I made to my upgraded card was changing the orientation from Landscape to Portrait.
 
Next, I added a panel of Real Red card stock to the front of my Whisper White base card.   I used the 'Seriously The Best' set and stamped my sentiment at the bottom of that panel.......Using VersaMark ink and 'White Embossing Powder'.
 
Then......I die-cut a pretty scallop frame from the 'Stitched So Sweetly Dies'.....
 
And stamped my "thanks" sentiment (from the 'Seriously The Best' set) at the top of that scallop frame.  I used 'Clear Embossing Powder' to really help that sentiment POP!!!
 
I positioned one of the red 'Heart Doilies' below my stamped sentiment ....... And popped my cute little ladybug in the center of that red doilies.
 
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 3-D Tuesday creation with you ...... Hope you can make plans to stop back and join me for that share.  Keep Living Your Dream!

LadyBug Thanks

Happy Sunday My Blogger Friends
Today is Spotlight Sunday ....... And I have a card I created using product from the 2020 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..........
 
What FUN I had making this sweet little card.
 
I started out by using my 'Simply Score Board' and creating a 1/4" scored/embossed edge around the entire front of my Whisper White base card.
 
Next......I grabbed the 'Seriously The Best' set and stamped my sentiment in the upper left hand corner with Real Red ink.
 
I used one of the 'Heart Doilies' and popped that onto the front of my card.  And then the 'Little Ladybug' set was stamped......colored and die-cut (using the 'Ladybug Dies') before popping that onto the center of my red doilies.
 
The finishing touch was adding a few hearts (from the 'Detailed Hearts Dies') around the front of my card ........ And topping each with a thin layer of 'Fine Tip Glue' to add a tiny shine to each.
 
 And that's all it took my friends
to create this DARLING little thanks 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!
