Creating connections with the
sweetness of stamping!
As soon as I saw the butterfly in Simple Friendship in the new catalog, I knew I had to get it! I love the butterfly! I also had to get all the new Sizzix texture plates. It’s hard to tell from this picture, but I used the swirl texture on the baja breeze. It adds…
I love the way these cards turned out. I used the Urban Garden DSP and Fifth Avenue Floral for the card on the right. I embossed “thanks” in vanilla on the basic gray and added some vanilla hodgepodge hardware to make it stand out. As I was playing with the card I reversed the paper…
The Yummy sale-a-bration set is my favorite! I love how one of the stamps perfectly coordinates with the top note die. I loved all the samples in the sale-a-bration catalog, so I recreated a lot of them. The first one I tried was this cute top note gift card holder. I just cut out…
I love these little boxes you can make from the new Sizzix die!! They fit the little hershey’s nuggets perfectly! I used the Yummy sale-a-bration stamp and the Candy Lane DSP to embellish this cute little box. I wrapped the nuggets with the Candy Lane DSP and tied some riding hood red taffeta ribbon around them. It…

This is the last project we made at my New Catalog Open House, a Chocolate Pull Treat. The directions can be found here. I used a 6×6 piece of cardstock instead of 6×7 so that I could get 4 pieces out of a 12×12 piece of cardstock. Recipe: Stamps: Love You Much Paper: Candy Lane DSP, Riding…
This is another card that we made last night at my New Catalog Open House. I enjoyed showing off the Petal Pizzaz and Raspberry Tart paper. I love how this stamp fits the scallop punch. For the petals, I used the small oval punch. After I punched them out, I just trimmed the point of the…
