HAPPY, SWEET, MAGNIFICENT NEWS!

What's listed above says it all!

The announcement is up and I'm happy to say that I am a part of the SRM Stickers 2013 Design Team!

Be sure to visit to the blog to see the rest of my talented teammates!

 

Can I get a Woot Woot!!!!!!

This company, by far, is one of my FAVES in the industry. I was so honored when Susan McShirley sent me the email inviting me to join the team. I did a little happy dance!!!!!

I received my DT box of goodies last week. Wowza....the team received such a generous amount of product. I jumped right in and made some new projects. Let me show you what I've made...

I just love the SRM Tubes. I called these my "Camera Tubes". They would be so much fun for an Instagram Themed Birthday Party. I used some die-cut cameras from Paper Issues for this one. I also added the Stickers by the Dozen - Birthday Birdie, the Stickers by the Dozen - Birthday, and the Express Yourself - Birthday stickers to this project. 

Now this little Birthday Birdie just makes me SMILE!!!

I'm still doing the HAPPY DANCE!

You Are My Happy

 

Happy Sunday!

 

Did you know you can make a fun card using texture, dies, and acrylic? 

 

The combination of the three are my FAVE elements on a card.

 

  

I'm a texture kinda girl too. I had to add a bit of canvas to my card as well. The paper is from GCD Studios Pure Bliss collection. I also made my own handmade button using the Epiphany Crafts Round 25 Tool.

 

I used my handy dandy Lifestyle Crafts Dies & Evolution die cutter on the circle and square shapes. Elements of my card are made from acrylic from the Clear Scraps store. I had some extra pieces left from the 6" x 6" acrylic album. I used them to add reinforcement to the canvas piece.

 

I'm linking this creation up to three fun challenges. First, this one is perfect for the Let's Get Trendy Now 3 - "Textured Layered Challenge".

 

 

 

I'm also playing along in the Catered Crop - So Shapely Recipe Swap and the Scrap It Girl - Use Your Dies challenge.

 

 

See ya back here tomorrow for more crafty fun!

Gifting Fun - The Craft's Meow June Release Hop

Welcome to the Craft's Meow June Release Blog Hop!

 

You should have arrived here from Amy's wonderful blog!

 

If you get lost along the way, please start at the TCM Blog!

The stamp that I used today is from the "Beautiful Rose" set.

{And the "Fancy Flourishes" stamp is June's Gift w/ $50 purchase}

 

 

I love a good gift card holder. This one was so fun to make. I cut and scored patterned paper then adhered the sides only. Make sure you leave enough room to slide a gift card inside the pocket.

 

I layered Pink Paislee paper goodies on top. I also stamped and embossed an image from the "Beautiful Rose" set.

Hello Happy Envelopes & Tags

June Preview Day #4 is here!

There's so much fun going on at The Crafts Meow! They are releasing FIVE new stamp sets. Be sure to stop by my blog from now until June 21st to see all of the new products coming out.

 

We're kicking off today with the stamp set called "Fancy Flourishes".

 

 

I love sending happy mail, so I've made some fun envelopes and tags to go along with each package. The font on the sentiments are fabulous!

 

Instead of coloring the words, I stamped on colorful paper. It creates a clean and graphic look to the design. There are so many design possibilities with this one.

A Page of Sweet Memories

June Preview Day #3 is here!

There's so much fun going on at The Crafts Meow! They are releasing FIVE new stamp sets. Be sure to stop by my blog from now until June 21st to see all of the new products coming out.

We're kicking off today with the stamp set called "Sweet Memories".

Fun fact: I'm so slow when I make mini albums. I only complete a couple of pages a day. I always try to do something fun with the pages. I'm working my brain way too much right? (smile)

I actually won this Amy Tangerine Day Book from Carina's blog during the American Crafts blog hop last month. I decided to decorate this page with a "dressed up" tag using the Sweet Memories stamp set.

I love adding texture to my projects. The felt heart was actually from a Valentine's Day placemat that I got from Michael's Craft Store. I carefully cut out one of the hearts and added it to the page.

Now I've gotta figure out what I want to do with the rest of the pages. This make take a while.....

June Preview Day #2 is here!

We're kicking off today with the stamp set called "Kindred Spirits".

 

This idea popped in my head when I received some happy mail from the sweet Janice Coble. I loved the ribbon so much that I drove over to Michael's Craft Store to get more.

 

I'm giving these ribbon packs to my crafty friends. Before gift giving, it's always best to dress it up with a tag.

 

I made a mini tag by stamping one of the sentiments on top. I also added some Pink Paislee goodies.

Doily Party Favors with The Craft's Meow

 

 It's time for The Craft's Meow June Release Week!

 

The design team will be debuting FIVE new stamp sets. From today, until June 21st be sure to stop by my blog each day to see some super fun projects.

We're kicking off today with "Beautiful Rose". 

 

 

I love to gift and make party favors. I though it would be fun to make some unique party favors using doilies.

 

 

First, I rolled them into a cone shape. I then wrapped them in ric-rac ribbon. I topped them off with embossed stamped sentiments using the "Beautiful Rose" stamp.

 

 

I think these would look great for wedding or girly baby shower favors. What do you think?
