Flourish Happy Birthday Card






The blue and black on this card look great together and the glitter centers on the flowers add birthday sparkle.  It screams Happy Birthday!

Bunny Gum Favors




These bunnies are suppose to be small treat boxes, but I chose not to fold up the sides (left down they kinda look like bunny feet 😉). Instead, I wrapped a pack of gum with pattern paper and placed it inside to create a cute Easter favor.  I love the bow with the pearl, it  took it from simple to adorable. 😊

Easter Butterfly Gift Card Holder




Here’s a fun way to give a gift card for Easter. I used the Stampin’ Up!, Ovals Framelits to create the egg.  The slots to hold the card were created with dies from their Lots To Love Box Framelits.  The tag and its little butterfly brought it all together. 🦋

Congrats Glassine Bag Turned Envelope






I used a glassine bag to create a money envelope.  I started by scalloping the top of the bag with a die from the Stampin’ Up!, Seasonal Layers Thinlits.  The bag is folded in half to create the envelope. To keep it closed I added a belly band with fun, colorful butterflies and a congrats sentiment.

Easter Egg Card




Before I placed the eggs, I sponged yellow ink on the card.   It sure did make them stand out.  Love this technique, I’ll have to try it again soon.

Welcome Baby Box




I used the Gift Box Punch Board to create a 2.5” x 2.5” box in pink for a baby. The little diaper pins are adorable and added just the right touch.

Birthday Takeout




Don’t you think the Stampin’ Up!, Takeout Thinlits Dies make the sweetest tiny box? It’s fun to embellish and doesn’t take much to fill.  I created a flower with the Stampin’ Up!, pansy and scallop circle punch to top this box.

Leprechaun




Isn’t this little guy cute?  I used the smallest die in the Stampin’ Up! Envelope Liner Framelits to create a pouch, which is the face and hat of the leprechaun.  The beard is the Sizzix, Frame, Oval Scallop and the mustache is from Stampin’ Up! Don’t you think he’s a fun way to say Happy St. Patrick’s Day? ☘️

Box Of Cupcake Cards






To create a box for the cards, I used my Sizzix, Shaker Box Bigz Die.  The cards are made with the Stampin’ Up!, Hello Cupcake stamp set.  Each card measures 2 7/8 x 2 7/8 so they’ll fit in the 3 x 3 box.  I stamped different colors of frosting on each cupcakes then stamped each sentiment on vellum to place on top.

Thanks Treat






Here’s an easy way to customize a small treat. Cut a piece of pattern paper a little wider and twice the length of your cello bag.  Fold the paper around the bag and staple it closed. Don’t forget to place your treat inside first. 😉 Now you can embellish it and the staple will be hidden! I used a few tags, a banner and bow to decorate mine, but the possibilities are endless.

Butterfly Bag




I created an envelope bag then added a couple things to give it a Spring flair. There aren’t any signs of Spring outside, so I have to create them inside. 😊
