Butterfly Card

Author: February 21, 2009 0 Comments

Butterfly Card Big Shot Dies As I mentioned yesterday I LOVE the New Stampin Up! Bigz Beautiful Butterflies Die! #114507. Which is a SU exclusive and in Shelli's Signature Collection!

I also used another Sale-A-Bration (SAB) Set called Polka Dot Punches #113788 and the ribbon So Saffron from the Ribbon Bundle #114618. Colors used here are So Saffron, C. Celery, Pale Plum, Perfect Plum and Wh. White.

Accessories: Glitter and Word Window Punch for the middle of the butterfly. Below is a close up of the butterly.  I also used scraps for the antennas.

Close Up Butterfly Card I really love these colors together! Very Eastery. Is that even a word? Or do I mean Springy???  Speaking of Easter…I will have more goodies coming. If not later today then tomorrow.

Any questions or if you'd like to have your own party and earn FREE Goodies let me know. Thanks for stopping by!

Happy Stampin',

V-Day from Hubby 

Hope you are all having a Wonderful Day! This is what I got yesterday from Hubby!  I was actually surprised! Mini Roses and they smell wonderful!

We are going to Dinner tomorrow. I didn't really feel like being around crowds today!

I also wanted to share the rest of my Valentines Goodies that I made for my Daughter and her friends…I was on a roll. I LOVE making treat holders. One might say I'm a bit obsessed maybe??? : ) NAH…Ok maybe…BUT I know that I am not alone out there. ; )

 

Valentine Cones   

This Idea I got from Angie Kennedy – Talk about CUTE, Simple and EASY! My Kind of Treat Holder.

My Daughters Girlfriend LOVED them. I also made some other holders but these were the majority.

Big Shot Scallop Die was Used for this.

Heart Shaped V-Day Holder 

 

I LOVED this one too! This is using the Petal Card Die. How fun is this!!! I actually used Chocolate chip, then used DSP and put it on top.  I saw this in Stampin' Up! Catty and also on Dawn Griffith's Blog with a Video Tutorial. LOTS of fun to make.

LOVE that Die! All the things you can do with it!

Scallop Hugs & Kisses Box 

Ok, this is the LAST one I promise. This cute box is using the new Bigz XL Scallop Box Die.  I'll have more on this little box.  Hubby is waiting for me to watch a Movie.  Our son is down, our daughter is at the movies so we have quiet time.

I'll have more to share tomorrow. As always thanks for stopping by. Any questions please let me know.

Happy Stampin',

Ghiradelli Purse Happy Thursday All! Hope you are all doing well! Well my Mom had Surgery on Monday (Rotator Cuff) Ouch…but she is doing much better now.  So my brother and I have been busy with her this week. ; )  But last week I was super busy making another video and prepping for my open house…and playing with all my Goodies!  Woo Hoo!  I love all the Dies for the Big Shot, stamp sets…Designer paper..Ok I love it all!  I want to share with you  My little Purse that holds a Ghiradelli Chocolate Square.  This project was inspired by Elizabeth Neuman. She has a great photo tutorial of a super cute party Favor that holds 2 nuggets.  You can see my Post here.  I changed my measurements to fit the Ghiradelli Chocolate…the assembly is the same.  Ok, here are the measurements:

3 x 6 Designer Paper   Ghiradelli Purse1
Score 6 inch side at 2 and 2 1/2
Score 3 inch side at 2 1/2 turn and score at 2 1/2 again.
Ribbon – I used a 6" piece

Note: Turn Chocolate the other way, it fits better. ; )  Enjoy!

*The video had a little bit too much light!
Total Rookie mistake! LOL! Sorry about that!
