SNEAK PEAK! Holiday Mini Paisley Prints 3

Hi Stampin' Friends!

Are you ready for another project using the Paisley Prints stamp set (a new stamp set that will be available in the upcoming Holiday Mini)?  This set is so versatile! I really had a lot of fun working with it for the Convention display boards.

To create this treat box, I used one of my favorite Big Shot dies, the Fancy Favor box and then dressed up the front of it using some of my favorite colors: Baja Breeze, Certainly Celery, and So Saffron.  The box itself is the new Cajun Craze.  I am just happy as a clam incorporating Baja Breeze into my projects again!!  I sure missed it, and am SO HAPPY about the Color Renovation!!

Stampin' Recipe:

Stamps: Paisley Prints, Fabulous Phrases

Ink: Cajun Craze, Early Espresso

Paper: Cajun Craze, Baja Breeze, Certainly Celery, Crumb Cake, Whisper White 

Tools: Big Shot (of course!! haha), Scallop Circles #2 die, Circle Scissor Plus, Full Heart Punch

Embellishments: Designer Buttons, Linen Thread, Clips Assortment

Happy Stampin'!!

PLAY like you mean it

Today's project is a double-page scrapbook layout featuring "Bugs & Kisses" stamp set.  The Bugs & Kisses stamp set is an "oldie but goodie".  Every year when the new catalog is released, I wait to see if this set is going to make it another round.  It sure did!  I love this set, and I'm so happy we get to keep it in the catalog for at least one more year.  Take a look and see what I mean!  Isn't it cute??

I created the "Play" title using the Simple Letters Alphabet Dies (115960) and Mr. Big (113439).  I know, I know, I never make anything without the Big Shot anymore!  I can't help it if the Big Shot is so fabulous!  That is one purchase I will never regret.   I used the Crimper Tool (101618) to add some whimsical, playful texture to the letters.

I agaub used the Big Shot and Top Note die for the decorative accent here on the frame shown here. I love to tuck a Top Note under the corner of journaling or photo frames for a little extra "something."

Here's a fun little trick to try using the Circle Circus stamp set: create your own DSP (Designer Series Paper) by stamping a pattern on white cardstock.  That's how I made the "L" in "Play" and this photo corner really POP! Helpful Hint: Photo corners are a snap with the Photo corners punch (119878)

Animal Stories Baby Card

Whew! I made it through the last few weeks and survived! It has been so much hard work, but I am so proud of myself for getting all those projects done and submitted for Stampin' Up!'s Artisan Award contest. Keep those positive thoughts coming my way, and hopefully I'll win!!! That would be so AMAZING!! Ok, on to today's project:

This adorable little fellow comes from the Animal Stories stamp set, along with 3 other nursery-worthy friends:

I have been making a lot of baby cards lately for baby showers, it seems everyone has caught the baby-bug! :) This card is for my cousin who is blessing her baby on Sunday.
