Here's a quick workshop project for old and new scrappers alike…remember, even if your customers don't scrap, they can still purchase a 6 x 6 frame to pop in this adorable page.  With 1/4 inch grosgrain for the stems and "With All My Heart" flowers, and a "Flight of the Butterfly" friend, this page will take your customers about 5-10 minutes tops!  But look at all the great products they'll get to use!

Another Easter Treat

March 17, 2010

  Here's another little Easter Treat idea, using the Petal card die and the Polka Dot Embossing folder for the Big Shot.  The Eggcoutrement set (Occasions mini page 22, item # 115165 wood mount $22.95 or item # 118556 clear mount  $16.95) is perfect for this little candy pocket, that fits one Ghiardelli chocolate.  I love how the belly band exactly matches the Scallop Border punch for a perfect scallop edge.  I did this project at my last workshop and it was a HUGE hit!

It is so good to design cards using soft light colors!  Can you tell I want Spring NOW?!  This stamp set, Abundant Hope (#118547 clear mount  $13.95) is so lovely and can be used for any spring card, be it birthday, thank you or thinking of you.  With as many different varieties of daffodils out there, think of all the different ways to color in the image!  I used markers for the flowers and a blender pen with the Bordering Blue marker to make the faint shadowing.  The DSP paper is from the new Sweet Pea Stack (#117161  $24.95) and of course, no card would be complete without the Sale-A-Bration Scallop Trim Border Punch (#118402) you can earn FREE with a $50 minimum order.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

This card was TOTALLY cased straight out of the Occasions Mini Catalog, with a few alterations!  I crimped the bottom of the card front for some texture and cut the little leaves from the (celery) scallop border stamped image.

And that cute little pink flower?  There's that great Trio Flower Punch again (#109183  $15.95)!  It punches out 3 flowers at a time. 

So…who's hiding the eggs?

 

 

 

 

 

 

Luck o’ the Irish

March 7, 2010

  For those of you with a little Irish in your blood, here's a great easel card.  The design was adapted from an idea by Brandi Weinette.  Look closely…the leprechan's mustache is the bird body and the eyebrows and nose are made with the bird wing from the Extra Large 2-step Bird Punch (# 117191  $15.95)!  The shamrock is made with the small LOVE heart from the  I {Heart} Hearts set (#117010 $26.95 wood-mount ; #118571  $18.95  clear-mount) and his top hat uses "Pawsitively Perfect" Build-A-Bear DSP (#118060  $9.95) and Old Olive 1/4 inch grosgrain ribbon (#111368  $4.95)!  Add the little Trio Flower punch flower (# 109183  $15.95) and this jaunty leprechan will be looking for that pot o' gold in style!

Erin go braugh!
