Happy Monday! I hope you had a relaxing, fun weekend! Today I have a cute little Easter box that was inspired by Sam Donald, a UK Stampin’ Up! demo, using the Envelope Punch Board. I made just a small change by turning the side flaps inward using glue dots. I used the beautiful Watercolor Wonder DSP. My flowers were created using the flower punch in the Itty Bitty Shapes Punch Pack and “Happy Easter” is from the set Teeny Tiny Wishes. The 3/4″ Circle Punch was used to create the handle and I tied it up with Daffodil Delight 1/4″ Stitched Grosgrain Ribbon. If you would like to recreate this little box, you can see Sam’s video here. Thanks so much for stopping by today!

Happy Monday and Happy St. Patrick’s Day! Today I have two more gum holders for you! Once you start making these, it is hard to stop! I was asked to make a tutorial so I made a video yesterday and hope to have it on my blog on Tuesday.
The cute little bunny comes from the stamp set Baby We’ve Grown from the Occasions catalog. (I LOVE the little owls in this set!!) The sentiment for the holder on the left is from the set Regarding Dahlias.

I hope you are having a good weekend so far! Today I have a little holder for gum. I have friends that don’t always like to receive candy and gum is always a good replacement for something chocolate. Well, actually, for me, gum is NEVER a replacement for chocolate but it can be for others! I tried putting some little fun sized bags of chocolate inside but they didn’t really fit but I am sure there’s something else that will fit comfortably inside. I used the Watercolor Wonder DSP which I really think is turning out to be my favorite paper in the Occasions catalog!
If you would like to see a picture tutorial for this little holder, email or leave a comment and I will work on it!
Have a great Sunday!

There are so many possibilities with washi tape! Several days ago I posted a card with a butterfly that I made out of washi tape. On this card I attached the tape directly to my Whisper White cardstock. So easy! My greeting is from the set Lots of Thanks and stamped in Baked Brown Sugar. I punched it out with my 1 3/8″ circle punch and adhered it to a 1 3/4″ Scallop Circle. with Stampin’ Dimensionals. Using my Stampin’ Pierce Mat and Paper-Piercing tool I pierced each scallop.
Thanks so much for stopping by! You can visit my online store HERE.
Lots of Thanks

Happy Monday! Here’s an easy card that you can make using the Oval Framelits!
Use your Big Shot and cut out an oval using the Ovals Collection Framelits (#129381) on the front of your card. Then emboss just the front with the Fancy Fan embossing folder (#127751). You want to be sure to emboss last so that you don’t flatten the embossing. Next, use that same size Framelit and cut out an oval out of a sheet from the Watercolor Wonder DSP (#132994). Using the next smaller size, center it on the oval you just made and you will have created an outer frame that you can glue to the front of your card! You’ll also have an extra oval that you can save for another card – perhaps use it as an Easter egg!
My greeting (from the set Sassy Salutations) was punched out using the Decorative Label punch. I added some Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back of the greeting so that it would “pop” up.
If you have any questions, please let me know!!

Happy Saturday!! I hope you have some fun plans today! My card today sure makes me feel as though spring is just around the corner. I used the Retro Fresh This and That Designer Washi Tape to create my colorful butterfly. I laid the tape down on a piece of Very Vanilla cardstock and then placed it on top of the larger butterfly using the Beautiful Butterflies Bigz die.
I made several butterflies and each one is different and unique.
My inspiration for this card came from the site My Stamping Best Friend!
Thanks so much for stopping by today!
