Little Treat Box Dies

Welcome to my blog. Sorry I’ve been absent but I had a family emergency. I’ve started working on some craft fair projects in case we have some this year. These Little Treat Boxes will be great for craft fairs or for little gifts. You can cut them out and store flat for later use. The two boxes above will be great for the beginning of the school year and Halloween.
I cut them out using Pumpkin Pie and Poppy Parade cardstock. The layering pieces come from the Plaid Tidings DSP cut 1-3/4 x 2-1/4. The pumpkin and apple is punched out of the cardstock using the Apple Builder punch. I used the sentiments from the Harvest Hellos stamp set.  The ribbon is from the Basket Weave Metalic Pack and All the Trimmings Ribbon combo pack.
Here are some more I made:
1 Halloween/ Fall

2. Winter /Christmas

- For your layering piece cut a piece of the Gilded Autumn DSP 4 x 5-1/4. Then cut this piece at 3 inches.

-  Glue the DSP to the card front as in the photo.

Fun Friday using DSP to make Christmas cards with my dog stamps

Welcome to my blog. I love my Stampin Up products and how they work with other products in my stash. For the cards above I used Forever Greenery DSP and the In Color DSP to make my dog Christmas cards. The stamps are not from Stampin Up. I love making dog cards and have many dog stamps. I like using Stampin a products to make cards with them. The Stampin Up Cardstock is the best around and I used it for the above card bases.
You can buy the cardstock and DSP from my website. Have fun using it making your projects.
Have a great weekend. I have another agility trial Sunday.

Have a Hoot Flip it card/Bonus Days

Welcome to my blog. Had problems with blogger but have it working now. On August 4th the new Mini Catalog will be available to order from. One of my favorites in the new catalog is the Have a Hoot bundle.

This stamp and die set is great for fall/winter cards and projects. I decided to make a flip it card using a a flip it die from my stash( Stamps of Life).

I also used Feels Like Frost DSP. The card base is Whisper White. I cut everything out using the dies from my flip it die set and then put it together. If you don’t have the flip it dies you can make a similar card called a Swing Card. StampingWithAmore on YouTube has a nice video on how to make one. Here is one I made using this video.

Materials and Directions 
-Start with a piece of cardstock 8-1/2 x 5-1/2. Score @ 4-1/4 . Then on 1 side @ 2-1/8. Center the die over the fold as in picture. Line up the cutting plate at the fold line to cut out.

- Layering pieces. 1 @ 4x5-1/4 and 2 @ 2x 5-1/4
-  Layering squares dies. 1 large  1 smaller.  The large one is to make the swing part.The video shows how to do this.The other make 2 white and one in color same as card base.

Bonus Days 
Ends August 3rd. You can use yours Bonus Coupons August 4th - August 31st 2020.
