A little Something Sweet

It's Friday again and here is my post for this week's challenge! http://SistersInStamping.blogspot.com
I used Something Sweet , here is the front of my card--

This is a picture of the inside--

This card is waaaaaay more difficult than last week's Valentine Conversation Heart box!! I made some grass with card stock using the faux suede technique, and used the Jig to make sure everything lined up inside with the Magnifying Glass on the front. When I finished it looked like I had every crafty thing I owned out on my desk. Here are all of the things I needed to make this card... SU! Supplies--

Stamp Sets: Something Sweet (pg.20, Occasions Mini Catalog), Inspired by Nature (pg.96, 2009-10 IB&C), Bugs & Kisses (pg.88, 2009-10 IB&C). Accessories: Stamp-Jig, medium window sheets, Stampin' Write Journaler, paper cutter, paper snips, old olive striped grosgrain ribbon, mini glue dots, 1 3/4 Circle Punch, melon mambo marker.

Hope you have a great week-end! It's pretty cold here in Madison (-2 when I took m son to school this morning)--we will be just tryin' to stay warm. Until next time,

A Fabulous Friday Valentine for you!

Hey there and welcome to another Fab Friday post! This sweet little Valentine is so simple to make--

Here is a picture of it open--

I used shimmer cardstock cut to 5x 7 1/4. Score it to form a box around the candy (6 1/2", 4", 3 1/4", 3/4"). I also scored it at 3/4" along the length to form the bottom of the box. I purchased the Conversation Hearts at a big box store. I received a trade from one of my Downline Stacey Campbell last week-end at the Quarterly SU! Meeting in Janesville. I loved the color combination--thanks Stacey for the cute, cute trade!

SU! supplies used--

Accessories: slot punch, Polka dot Melon Mambo grosgrain ribbon, Full Heart punch, Heart to Heart punch, Small Heart punch, BigShot, Perfect Polka Dots folder. Paper: Shimmer White, Melon Mambo, Tempting Turquoise, Pretty in Pink, Yo-yo Yellow.

The Valentines Day Stamp Camp is next week, check my calendar (it's in the column on the left) for dates and times.

Until next week, Karla c(:

SU! Leadership Inspiration Fab Friday

Oh my goodness, is it Friday already?? I met up with my Sisters In Stamping (http://SistersInStamping.blogspot.com) while I was at Leadership in Phoenix....our post for this week was to find a project from Leadership that inspired us. Had a tough time picking this project, there were so many fun and inspiring things shown to us... It's hard to see in the picture...I ran the window sheet through the BigShot using the Finial folder. I'm leading a Quarterly Downline Meeting in Janesville tomorrow--all of my helpers will receive one of these cute little favors as a thank-you!

SU! Supplies used--

Accessories: medium window sheets, bone folder, BigShot, finial press folder, sticky strip, fancy favor die, 1" rose red double stitched grosgrain ribbon.

Hope you can come back next week, until then--

I {heart} Hearts!!

I came home from SU! Leadership in Phoenix (it was lovely there) and apparently I didn't set this post up right when I left so it didn't go live! Which just proves that I really don't know what I'm doing here in the cyber world. Here it is, a few days late.....

You can see by the name of my blog that I REALLY do {heart} Hearts--I'm crazy for them! At my house I decorate with a lot of hearts, I try to hide them in plain sight. So having this stamp set as the focus for the Fabulous Friday post (http://SistersInStamping.blogspot.com) was a fun challenge. Really fun to put together!



SU! Supplies used--

Stamp sets: I {heart} Hearts (pg. ,Occasions Mini Catalog), Define Your Life (pg.150, IB&C 2009-10). Accessories: Heart to Heart punch, Full Heart punch, dimensionals, 2-way glue pen, dazzling diamonds glitter, Pretty in Pink satin ribbon. Paper: Whisper White, Regal Rose, Chocolate Chip, Close to Cocoa. Ink: Regal Rose, Chocolate Chip.



Happy Stamping--
