Halloween treats

I made these last week and mailed them to my daughter and her room mates in college. I am sorry but I am just getting around to posting them so I am going to post all at once.

 I made these pumpkins by punching 3 ovals and adhearing them to make a pumpkin. I added a stem and some stickers.

 These are those sour cream "type" containers which I filled with Hershey nuggets.
cut a piece of printed paper and glue and crimp the ends.  You can see my directions here.

 These are premade boxes that I used the Large Martha Stewart punch to make the spooky fence and the mega wpider web, I filled these with 100 grand chocolate bars.

Vintage note card

Using the same elelments as my friend to friend card, I changed up the size and layout a bit by using the foiled ebossed card that I picked up at the florist. It matched my card very welll and it added a little glitz as well. This has no sentiment as it is intended to be a note card.

I used the Cuttlebug Swiss dots folder to emboss the layer that the butterfly (Martha Stewart) was cut from

then put back on. The next layerwas border punch with Hearts punch also by Martha. Next was the note card from the florist (click the pic and hope you can see the beautiful artwork) next layer I used the old ticket punch from Stampin' Up.

Simply Soft Birthday card

My daughter's friend birthday was yesterday so I am quickly getting this card I made this morning in the mail to her.
I used the Stampin' Up set Simply Soft to create this card. While it is very hard to line up the two stamp method - it came out ok.
I did some sponging for the sun and the clouds and grass. The image colors did not come out as they are in real life. Perhaps the lighting to camera to web just throwing it off a bit.

I added some Dazzling Glitter glue also from SU to the flowers though you may not be able to see it.

The inside I cut a strip of card stock to reflect the border punching I did to the top and added a butterfly.

Postage Stamp birthday card

I made this for my sister whose birthday is in a couple weeks, the base is concord crush Stampin' Up card stock as well as the postage stamps which I cut from a Spellbinders die.

I picked up this shiny tulle at the fabric store in which I cut a strip and tied a knot. To keep the tulle on I used a glue dot (love Glue Dots!)

The base white layer is a new Spellbinders Impressabilities which you run through your machine (I had to look online to get the sandwich for my Big Shot), then on the raised areas I used my Cat Eye inks to run along to capture the raised image.[You may have to click the picture to see the detail, camera is hard to pick up white and in artificial lighting)

Sentiment and punches are from Stampin' Up inked in Concord Crush as well added rhinestones for bling!
Thanks for stopping by.

friend to friend

I made this card for a dear friend of mine and mailed it today, hope it cheers her up!
I used the Martha Stewart Butterfly punch and added Stampin" Up dazzling diamonds (glitter glue)

There are 4 layers to this card, Inked and corner punched the bottom layer (corner ticket punch was from an Old Stampin" Up catalog)
Next layer I punched using the fabulous hearts Marther Stewart border punch.
Third layer is embossed with Cuttlebug Swiss Dots embossing folder.
last layer is the butterfly (Martha Stewart) and the sentiment from Teen Tiny Wishes (Stampin' Up)

Sympathy cards burlap and buttons

I made this set of 4 Sympathy cards real early this morning.

I used different embossing folders for the base card, burlap that I fringed (cut at 2 1/4" x 3") to make this rustic homey card.

Sentiment if from Stampin' Up Teeny Tiny Wishes. Various punches were used (SU) to punch out the sentiment.

The buttons were from a vintage yard sale I went to last weekend.

Star tri fold Happy Birthday card

This is an angled tri-fold card, I used the Sizzix big die and cut out various star shapes and glued them to the angel cut of the card.

 Added a Happy Birthday sentiment from Stampin Up Teeny Tiny Wishes

This can be a boy or girl birthday card.

15 minutes Easter Card

Since I had the lattice die out and I've seen folks make the cross with it, I wanted to give a try at making my version.

Take the die image once cut, and turn it at an angle, remove the ovals and trim carefully revealing a cross.

I embossed the Stampin' Up card base with the Tulip embossing folder, glued the cross on. Then took the butterfly punch and glued that to the mid section of the cross post.

To dress it up I added the teeny Boho flower punch flower to the cross section and to the butterfly. Finished it off with a tiny flat back pearl. Love these - must get more!!!

The sentiment is also from Stampin' up and punched it from the scallop oval punch, mounting it on foam squares.

15 Minute or Less Wedding card

Using my Stampin' Up supplies, I created this white on white wedding card.

 First embossed the whisper white card stock, then using the large Sizzix die for stampin up I cut the lattice piece and glued that to the base card.

Punched out two hearts and ran those through the dots embossing folder, mounted them on foam squares and off set one from the other.

To depict male and female, I used the limited release black rhinestone and then the classic rhinestone.

The for the sentiment I used the Teeny Tiny wishes and the scallop oval punch, again raised with foam squares.

Punch out flower and butterfly cards

Created these two cards this past weekend but I am just getting around to posting them.  Using my scraps from my Stampin' Up pile - these cards were created.

Embossing the white layer and border punched with the pretty lace trim. Using a 5 petal flower punch on one card and the Butterfly punch on the other, I punched out the flower then turned it and layered it back on with a foam dimension square.

The Butterfly card is a litle different in which I used stripped of scraps to cover the butterfly. Please click the picture for a better view.

The sentiments I used on both cards are from Teeny Tiny wishes which I layered on a couple more punch outs.

Here is the inside of the cards, again used some scrap whisper white card stock and some mini punched shapes.
