Build a Blossom Birthday Card

Build a Blossom BirthdayEvening Stampers,

I wanted to share this card I made for my Mom's Birthday. I am really LOVING the new Build a Blossom Set from Stampin' Up! and of course with the coordinating punch set.

This is a 2 step stamp set. What did I do? How did I do it? What did I use?

 

Stamp set:  Build a Blossom, Teeny Tiny wishes
Ink: Regal Rose, Blushing Bride, Choclate Chip, Pear Pizzazz
Cardstock: Whisper White, Blushing Bride, Chocolate Chip, Pear Pizzazz
Accessories: Build a Blossom Punch, Modern Label & Word window punch, Eyelet border punch, 1 1/4 cirle punch, Dazzling Diamond Glitter

1.  Using Blushing Bride ink stamp the solid image on Whisper White cardstock, then with Regal Rose Stamp the Out Line image on top of that.  Stamp your out line leaf image on Pear Pizzazz cardstock with Pear Pizzazz ink – Punch out all your images.

2.  I attached Chocolate Chip cardstock to the base of the card which is Blushing Bride and used the eyelet border punch on the bottom half.  

3.  With the Teeny Tiny wishes stamp set stamp your sentiment with chocolate ink and punch out using the Word Window Punch.

4.  Using Pear Pizzazz Cardstock punch out your shape with the Modern label punch and attach the sentiment to it. Punch out a 1 1/4 inch circle in Regal Rose or Blushing Bride. It doesn't matter what color you won't see it.

5.  Layer your Petals on the 1 1/4 inch Circle punch, attach the center with dimensionals – attach your flower with dimensionals to your card.

That is it! Hope you liked this card. I've got some more shares coming. Thanks for stopping by and if you have any questions please don't hesitate to ask.

Happy Stampin',

Purse Treat Holders

Valentine purse treat holders Morning Stampers!  Wanted to share this fun project with you all this morning.  I had fun making this and am working on a video for this fun Purse "treat" holder. 

This was inspired by a box of chocolates that was in a basket that my hubby got from work and I knew when I saw it I had to make one similar and I finally got around to it.  So enjoy and I will be showing you how to make this very soon! Thanks for stopping by!  Questions let me know.

Valentine purse treat holder 1

Here is a close up of box #1

 I made a window in the front of of it with the 1 3/4 inch punch.  I also used acetate for the window.

This was my 2nd attempt at the box. The first is below.

Valentine purse treat holder 2 This is Box #2  but the very first box I made. the flap is in the back and I'm sorry I didn't get a picture of it. I will have more fun projects for you to see.

Valentine School Favors

Just about anything. Questions don't hesitate to ask.
Valentine School favors
I used the flamingos from the Valentine Defined set #123-057 Clear – I also used the Bigz Die Two Tags #115-954 and of course the Big Shot and my punches! Love the layer of the Scallop Circle punch and the circle punches.

I made 24 of them for his class. Put the snack size M&M's inside and super fun and easy to make.  I will have another Valentine Share tomorrow then will move on to more things I promise.
