Spotlight on Tools #2

Have you ever been in the situation where you have almost finished a card and you then you notice that there is a a sticky dirty-looking piece of adhesive on it???  You may have thought that you card was ruined but this somewhat overlooked tool is the answer!!  It is called an Adhesive Remover (#103684  $3.50).  It works just like an eraser and you can erase the unwanted mark on your card.  It has saved many of my cards!! It works best with Snail Adhesive, not a tape, such as Sticky Strip.  If the surface of the remover becomes gummy, simply slice off the top layer!  This is definitely a crafting tool that you will want to have in your crafting toolbox.  

You can find the Adhesive Remover on page 177 in the Annual Stampin’ Up! catalog, in the lower right hand corner.

Everybunny Treat Holder

We made this cute little treat holder at my Stamp Clubs this month. I used a half sheet of 8 1/2 x 11 cardstock  (4 1/2 x 11).  I scored it at 1 1/2 and 6 1/2 inches.  Before embossing the front, I used one of the ovals from the Ovals Collection Framelits to cut out the front.  I stamped the front of the cello bag with StazOn Opaque (white).  It dries pretty quickly and adds such a nice finishing touch to the project.  I attached small velcro dots, which I bought at a local hardware store, to the 2 3/8 Scallop Oval. Once I shut it, the other half of the Velcro was exactly where I wanted it!  The trick is to put your candy inside FIRST before you attach the velcro.  I did it the other way around the first time and it wouldn’t shut properly.  I hope this inspires you to give it a try!

Patterned Occasions

The inspiration for my card came from Connie Babbert.  When I saw her card, I instantly fell in love.  I made a few subtle changes with the products I had on hand.  I love the new Honeycomb Embossing folder and it is so striking on this card!  The beautiful paper comes from the Print Poetry paper stack  (#129312) in the Spring Catalog.  There are 48 sheets – 4 each of 12 double-sided designs and each sheet measure 4 1/2 x 6 1/2.  It really is a beautiful pack of paper!  
The cute coffee cup comes from a Sale-a-bration set called Patterned Occasions (Wood #12962  or Clear #129624).  It can be yours FREE with a $50 order but only until March 22nd!!!  If you’ve had your eye on this stamp set, be sure to get it before it’s too late!!!    

Thanks so much for stopping by today.  I hope your week has started off well!!
