OnStage Valentine Swap - Accented Blooms

Valentine Team Swap - Accented Blooms

Back in November at Onstage, my team had a group swap of Valentine designs with Annual catalog products. I enjoyed this challenge and creating my design. I used Powder Pink card stock with the "Accented Blooms," and "P.S. You’re the Best" stamp sets.

Crumb Cake Stampin’ Pad was used to stamp the sentiment and floral image. And Versamark was used for the heart from "P.S. You're the Best" that I stamped all over the background.

I punched out the sentiment with the Tailored Tag punch. The Pretty label punch was used to punch the vellum label layer. These are adhered together, and the Rose thread was looped and attached to the vellum.

Adhere a piece of vellum to the top of the Powder Pink card stock layer. Then I adhered one end of the ribbon to the back of that layer. There are two hearts die cut from our "Sunshine Wishes" thinlits, one is vellum and one is Powder Pink. The ribbon is strung through the hearts so that they hang from the ribbon. The loose ribbon end is adhered on the back side of the Powder Pink card stock.

Wink of Stella is painted onto all of the flowers. Then I assembled my card: Powder Pink layer is adhered to the Crumb Cake card base, the sentiment tags are then attached onto the card front with dimensionals.

I hope you have enjoyed learning about this alternative idea for a Valentine card design. We have lots of beautiful stamps, embellishments, and designer series paper to help you with your Valentine projects. I would love to help you!

Kre8tors Blog Hop - Tea Together

Hello and welcome to the January Kre8tors Blog Hop! This month's theme is Occasions/Sale-A-Bration Tic Tac Toe Challenge. Each participant must complete a line containing three squares on our Tic Tac Toe Challenge graphic.

I love a Tic Tac Toe challenge - it is so fun to pick which combo to use for my design. My design started with the top left corner to go diagonally across the board: Sequins, Punch, Ribbon using the Tea Together stamp set and Tea Time framelits. Our silver edged cards and envelopes are so elegant and match the silver mini sequins in my design. I stamped a tea cup on the envelope flap.

The black and white Botanical Butterfly Designer Series Paper was the starting point for my tea pot. I added a punched out Balmy Blue butterfly from a different sheet of the DSP. It is placed on the tea pot. The other butterflies are colored with a Stampin' Blends dark Balmy Blue marker and embellished with sequins.

I layered a strand of the silver mini sequins onto the Balmy Blue organdy ribbon. The sentiment circles are adhered with dimensionals over the ribbon. I placed half a doily as a "platter" beneath the tea pot.

I die cut a tea pot in Balmy Blue card stock and adhered it under the butterfly DSP tea pot. This created a nice shadow of Balmy Blue peeking out from under the black butterfly tea pot.

I hope you will join our fun and use the Tic Tac Toe challenge to make a design at home.

Paper Pumpkin Goes Wild January Kit

Today is the LAST day to update your account for more kits, or start your new subscription.

I love the Animal Expedition suite and I'm excited that it will be featured in our January kit! We already had a hint that the kit is treat holders, so that gets my mind turning for what to put into the treat holders. My next question is: who will I gift them to?

I love to share Valentines and have lots of ideas for this year. My Valentines will have packaged candy which will be happily accepted by anyone. Here are ideas of who to share our Valentine treats to show appreciation, (beyond the typical teacher and classroom exchange):

fire station

police station

paramedics station

library staff

school office staff/librarians/cafeteria staff

bus drivers

health and welfare office

elderly neighbors

clergy

Random acts of kindness:

gas station attendant

service workers on Valentines Day

carpool driver

mail carrier

UPS driver

everyone, everywhere appreciates a gift of kindness!

 Subscribe here today!

January 11th is too late, so go do it now.
