Scallop Purse Tutorial

Yes, I am still here! I am so sorry!  Let's just say that I have had LOTS going on since coming back from Convention. Spent the Summer trying to get more Organized (work in progress) and really made a dent in things. But also wanted to spend as much time with my Son before he started 1st grade and he's be in school ALL DAY long.  I think he's finally used to it! Poor thing his first week he comes home and says "Mom, when do I get to come home early?" Awe! He didn't realize that those were the new hours now. Oh, then Hubby and  I were planning our Anniversary get away, had a blast in Cambria, Ca. Very nice and quiet there.

But anyway, am now getting back to the swing of things and wanted to start the week with a video that I said I was going to make of the Scallop Purses I made for Convention.  So enjoy and if you have any questions please let me know.  Thanks for stopping by and being patient while I get my blog back up and running.

Happy Stampin,

3D Chocolate Purses

Chocolate PursesHere is my last and final 3D swap! I made about 20 of them. I had made something like this at Leadership adjusted the measuerments and added a Scallop Flap. Got the Flap Idea from Barbara Jackson! Thanks Lady!

I'll for sure have instructions for this one when I get back home. Super easy and fun too! Yes, they hold a goodie inside, my favorite Ghiradelli Chocoalte Square.

Now colors used Rose Red, Chocolate Chip and Whisper White…I LOVE this color combo! Will have more details when I get home.

These will be a Make n Take at my house for my Open House in August. More details to come on that event. Enjoy and thanks for stopping by!

For You Card

OTTS For You CardHello again! Ok so here is my Swap for "Barbara Jackson's Over the Top Swap"  The picture didn't turn out as well as I'd of liked. I was running out of time and this was the best picture I got.

Anyway, Color of cardstock used here is Old Olive, Chocolate Chip and Very Vanilla. Ink color – Old Olive, Chocolate Chip & Black Staz-on. Now I think the name of this stamp set is Elements of Style. I'll double check when I get home but almost sure that's the name. I also used our circle punches, grograin ribbon, dazzling diamond glitter and Crystal Effects. It's hard to see from the photo. I also used the Big Shot. Thanks for stopping by!
