Pillow Boxes, Mini Milk Cartons and Crackers!

Hello there, 

I have a very picture heavy post today sharing lots of little boxes I have made using SU! dies.

So, to start the Candy Wrapper Die, looks more like a cracker though don't you think? I have a video tutorial on how to put this one together HERE

 Mini Milk Cartons, I LOVE these little guys :-) I have a mini tutorial on how to stamp a background stamp all over the slightly too large for the stamp milk carton,

 I will share that with you tomorrow so do pop back ;-)

 and finally lots of Pillow Boxes....

I have decorated these Pillow boxes with the following stamp sets....

Bordering on Romance, Just Soccer, 

Fox and Friends, Just Believe, 

 Mixed Bunch and Woodgrain Background with Oval All

 And of course Tea Shoppe

OK, this was a lot of pictures so thanks for sticking with me today!

Stampin' Hugs from me,

Fresh Vintage Showcase and last chance to Sale-a-Brate!

Hello there,

As you may know Saturday (tomorrow!) is the very last day to Sale-a-Brate, that means after tomorrow you will NOT be able to get hold of these lovely stamps or Designer Papers for free with your order or at all, ever again! Please, if you would like to own any of them then please get in touch before 7pm Saturday night.

So, I will share with you the lovely Fresh Vintage makes from the last couple of months tonight :-)

My Mum's Mother's day card which I think is my favourite card right now ;-)

 Quick and easy

 Fresh and modern colours

 silver embossing powder with spotty scalloped ribbon

 and a more vintage colour way

 I used the flowers on the background for these little handbags

I hope you have enjoyed today's showcase and if you need this stamp, please get your order to me asap :-)

Thanks for visiting today,
Stampin' Hugs,

 

Happy Valentines!

O.K. I must confess to not really being a Valentines kinda girl, in fact we are not a Valentines house at all really! However, having said that I really wanted to send my lovely down- a little something, just to let them know I am thinking of them, so Valentines day was just the perfect excuse ;-)
I made them each a little handbag using the Pillow Box die and the scallop square die with Spice cake DSP for the "flap"

I stamped the FREE Fresh Vintage flower stamp all over the soft suede pillow box and added a pretty antique brad for the clasp

all in a row :-)

and I also popped a little card in with them too. These were made with the full heart and triple heart punches with more Spice cake DSP

adding crystal effects and a rhinestone to a couple of the hearts to highlight

and all 4 cards together

Well girls, I hope you like your little something from me? And wishing a Happy Valentines to all :-D
Stampin' Hugs for today,

The Chick from an Owl!

I love it when you make projects using my tutorials but please be sure to link back here and give credit when you make and post to your blog.

Thank-you for your understanding and I hope you enjoy this tutorial xx

Hello there folks and welcome to week 3 of Simply Stampin' Challenges,

The theme this week is "Easter" and it follows nicely with my theme this week to show you ideas for the big hunt next weekend,

I have made 3 little Pillow Box Die Cuts adding a little window to the front so you can see the little eggs inside! 

Those bunnies are back for decoration too ;-) I used Woodland Walk, In colour Peach Parfait (both current) and some Pretty in Pink retired papers to make these boxes, I also used the lovely New Owl Punch to make the cute chicks,

and the 3D look at the boxes,

So do you want to see how I made the cute little chick??

Great! 'cause I did a little tutorial for you!

First of all punch out the Owl and just 5 scallops from the Scallop Circle punch in Daffodil Delight, then the feet only again from the Owl punch and cut a small square for his beak, both in Pumpkin Pie, 

O.K. be brave, you have to cut the little owls ears and feet off next! I then inked the edges of the Daffodil pieces next with matching ink,

then you basically stick them together like so... The eyes are made with the Choc Chip Marker and the little beak was made folding the square in half sticking with a tiny bit of tombow in the centre,

So there you have it, Easter treats and a tutorial for you, I hope you will be able to join in with this weeks challenge at Simply Stampin'

Stampin' Hugs,
