Flowering Foils + Stampin Blends = 9 Card Designs

Hello Everyone,

On Monday night I shared some pictures of me doing a little coloring therapy.  I colored 2 12 x 12 sheets of the Flowering Foils paper from Sale-A-Bration.  One was water colored with my aqua painters and the other with my Stampin' Blends. 

This sheet was colored with my beloved Stampin' Blends which definitely felt more therapeutic to me than the water coloring. But both turned out great.

 This sheet was colored with my aqua painters and some various ink refills.

I just LOVE that Lovely Lipstick in upper right corner.

Well, today I'm here to show you some of my creations. I only got around to using 1 of the 12 x 12 sheets which was the Stampin' Blends one....but look at these 9 cards!

Aren't they beautiful?  I am so pleased with them and look forward to using the other 12 x 12 sheet for some more.  

I hope you take some time today to get crafty and enjoy your products!

Love What You Do and Share What You Love.

Stampin' Up! Gift Box Card | Cauldron Bubble Sneak Peek

Hi Everyone,
I'm so excited for today's project.  I've been meaning to share this project for about a year! No kidding. So, I thought this would be the perfect opportunity to do it and give you a sneak peek of some New Holiday Catalog Product: Cauldron Bubble!
The Holiday Catalog will be available to customers starting September 5, 2018 but if you would like to join my team, you can build your Starter Kit from the holiday catalog now!!
This suite called Toil & Trouble is going to be one of my favorites!! I will never part with this set. But since Halloween is a way off, I also created this project for a birthday using current product.  I LOVE them all!
Did you notice the box is our clear tiny treat boxes?  However, you can also make your own 2 x 2 box out of paper which I also did below.  It definitely needs some more embellishing.  What I love about the clear boxes is you can see the treat or goodie that's inside.
