Day By Day Paper Pumpkin kit

Day By Day November 2018 kit...yes, I am shamed!  I just now pulled this kit out to assemble.  In my defense I am not big on 3D projects because I don't like clutter (dusting required).  LOL!  I mulled it over and decided to make cards. 

My kit came with all of these goodies plus stampin spots of ink.  My daughter loves to stack the spots in a triangle in my cabinet.  Not sure why but it gives her great satisfaction!  LOL!

I added an embossing folder to the mix for texture on the background.  I did have to provide the white card base and the colored layer under the month.  When I give the cards I plan to circle their birth date.  It will be the wrong year but the card is so cute that I am hoping most folks will ignore the year. 

This card showcases the enclosed ribbon and tags.  I ran out of the Pool Party ribbon later and switched to the ribbon I had on hand.  I hope that you are inspired!

Snowman Season Card





Hello!  I fell in love with this lovely stamp set!  It colors up nicely and has some bling.  I will be replacing my card pic because my usual location just did not seem to be working.  I am not sure why!  I hope that this gives you inspiration.  Check out my inspiration card here.  I changed a few minor details but I loved her card!

Happy stamping!

Thank You Card

Hello!  I am back!  I will be posting quite a bit this week.  Keep checking back!  I just finished my TEFL training (Teaching English as a Foreign Language) and I am starting to feel like stamping.  It has been a long road to get over the mono but it is coming.  Hooray!

Happy stamping!

Stamp Camp Pop and Twist Card


This card is my favorite one and the most tricky to create.  I watched several YouTube videos but this gal had the easiest tutorial to follow.  Plus she used inches instead of centimeters!  LOL!

I was super happy because a teen girl in my household was impressed with the card and usually I just get a "that's nice, Mom..."  Home run!!

Happy stamping!

Peeps Easter Card



Yes, this is a shameless case of casing...lol!  I saw this card on Tami White's page and fell in love with it.  I did tweak it just a wee bit to make it mine.  I have 13 swaps to make for the downline meeting on Saturday and thought that the "wow factor" was high enough to warrant using this card for swapping.

I am thrilled that the weather is warm and the trees are starting to green up so that I can take my card pics outside on the deck again.  I love the sunshine!  We have been riding our bikes every day for PE.

Colors:
Daffodil Delight
Whisper White
Calypso Coral
Pool Party
Lucky Limeade
Crumb Cake (sponging)

Extra-large oval

Tea Light box with Fun Flowers Die

 1.  Score the 5x6 box cover at 5/8", 2 1/4", 2 7/8", & 4 1/2". Your score lines should be 6" long.
 2.  Score the 3 3/4 x 8 box.  The long score lines are scored at 1/2, 1 1/8, 2 5/8, 3 1/4".  The short lines are scored at 1/2, 1 1/8, 7 1/8, 7 3/4".

 3.  Cut out the corners as shown to make the flaps.  Add sticky strip according to picture below.
 4.  Fold over flaps to create box.
 5.  Adhere sticky strip to one end (widest end) and wrap the lid around the box.  Peel back off sticky strip and press.  Stamp Mixed Flowers stamp with Wisteria Wonder on a 1 1/2 x 5 1/2" strip; mount on lid.

 6.  Sponge all three flowers and two centers with Wisteria Wonder.  Curl edges with a bone folder and then stack flowers with adhesive.  Stack centers and adhere with an In Color brad.  Adhere centers to flowers with a dimensional. 

 7.  Stamp flowers on tissue paper and then lightly adhere corners (not flowers) to scrap paper.  Punch out the flowers with a circle punch.  Punch a small hole in the center for the wick of the tea light.  You MUST punch with the scrap paper behind the tissue paper or it won't work.
 8.  Insert the wick through the small hole and ensure that the wick is standing up so it won't melt onto the candle.  Heat the candle until the tissue paper is "hidden" under the wax and the wax looks wet.
