4 You Mini Milk Carton

My Twin (Judy) found the cutest little milk carton on Sizzix.com.  Here's my version using Stampin' UP! supplies~

I used the Pawsitively Prints II DSP for the Milk Carton (cut with the Big shot using the Mini Milk Carton Die).  The flower is from Sweet Summer Sale-A-Bration Stamp Set ~ hope that one makes the July catalog!  The 4 YOU is stamped on Blushing Bride CS and is from the Tiny Tags Stamp Set.  I used the Scallop Border Punch and some Very Vanilla CS for the background and the scallop under the flap.  Judy actually came down (She's in Modesto and I'm in Atwater) yesterday and the little creation was a Twin effort!  My favorite kind of day!!! Thanks for the idea and the help Judy.  The flower was colored using a Blending Pen and the Watercolor Wonder Crayons.  I put a little bag of pastel Jordan Almonds as the goodie inside the carton.  The ribbon is Real Red Taffeta.  Hope you like it.......

Happy Halloween Greeting Card Kid

I'm lovin' this cute little stamp set called Greeting Card Kids (they look like the old Campbell Soup Company Kids)! I snagged this idea from Angie Juda at Chic n' Scratch, isn't it cute. She's so awesome. She's doing live videos and you can go back and view them later if you miss the actual live showing. I love how she takes us right into her craft room, check it out.



I used Old Olive CS for the box and the wide striped grosgrain ribbon in Old Olive. I also ran a strip of Old Olive Grosgrain Ribbon down the side. The background paper is Pawsitively Prints DSP. I stamped the little girl on her pumpkin from the Greeting Card Kids and punched it out with the new 2-1/2" Circle Punch and sponged the edges with Early Espresso Classic Ink. The happy halloween is from the Teeny Tiny Wishes Stamp Set stamped on Whisper White CS and punched out with the Word Window Punch and of course, sponged with Early Espresso Ink. I think my friend Tina has gotten me into the Halloween spirit!!!

Another Easter Basket

Here's another little Easter Basket that I cased from Splitcoast Stampers. Hope you like it??

I used the Pawsitively Prints DSP for the outside of the basket and YoYo Yellow CS for the actual basket and handle. I used the Eyelet Border Punch for the design with DSP on the handle. I used Bashful Blue Satin Ribbon for the little bow and the Yellow Striped Grosgrain Ribbon around the top of the Basket. The Happy Easter stamped with Soft Suede is from the Well Scripted Stamp Set stamped on pink CS from the Earth Elements Packet of CS and punched with the Scallop Oval Punch and layered onto Wide Oval Punched from Chocolate Chip CS. I added some tissue paper and Easter Candy to finish off the little basket.

Another Birthday!

This one is for my Nephew who will be 14 on Tuesday. How do those kids get that old so fast, seems like yesterday he started school! LOL! I used the Bigz XL Curly Label Die for the base of the card. The Curly Label Punch that matches. The happy birthday was stamped with the Happy Moments Stamp set from the Sale-a-Bration Catalog. The Best Wishes is from the Kind and Caring Thoughts which is a Hostess Level 3 set from the 2009-2010 Idea Book and Catalog. I used the Pawsitively Prints DSP for the plaid and orange, some orange and blue grosgrain striped ribbon and Bright Blue CS from the Bold Brights pack. The top half of the card is Bashbul Blue CS ran throught my favorite Embossing Folder Perfect Polka Dots. I used the Large Oval Punch and the Scallop Oval Punch for the Best Wishes.Hope he likes it ~ well, I'll put some $$ in so I'm sure he'll like that! What teenager doesn't need some bucks!!!

Boy Build-A-Bear Card

Equal opportunity ~ did the girl bear earlier so now it's the boy bear's turn ~ isn't he cute?

I used the Build-A-Bear Beary Best Friends Stamp Set and Beary Nice Wishes Stamp Set. I colored him with the colored pencils. Top Note Die cut in half (Dusty Durango CS) and Modern Label Punch to mount the Beary Best Wishes. I used a piece of Dusty Durango Grosgrain Ribbon across the center. The DSP is Pawsitively Prints and Bashful Blue CS and I stamped with Brocade Blue Classic stampin' pad.

Hope you like him!
