Gold Love Card

I’ve noticed that Gold is really popular right now in terms of paper crafting so I wanted to give it a try and see what I could come up with. I also love the new Photo-polymer sets and wanted to try them out some too.

So this card is pretty simple, but I like how it turned out. I used the gold encore pad with the gold embossing powder to really make the gold sparkle. I also used the gold pad to ink the baker’s twin. I think the new gold baker’s twin in the occasions catalog would look awesome, but I didn’t have any to give it a try. I did however have the gold paper that I used for the hearts and the background.

Fun Christmas Picture Ornament

I’m serving in our ward nursery and we wanted to make a cute gift that the kids could give their parents for Christmas. My daughter just happens to be one of our cute nursery kids. The ornament turned out so cute that I just had to share them with you.

First this is the front with the darling picture of my daughter. Thanks to technology it was easy to take pictures of the kids with my phone each week. Then I used My Digital Studio to get them the perfect size and to change them all to sepia to match the ornaments better.

I used the scallop circle die to cut out a piece of card board (Of course I had plenty from the back of our great products. I save all of them they are so great for many projects.) I covered the chipboard with a piece of Old Olive paper cut out with the scallop circle die and embossed with the pedals of plenty embossing folder. The chocolate chip background and the picture were cut out using the circle thinlits. I finished it off with the fun thinlit Merry. (Just a tip if you use wax paper. Wax side towards the paper. The paper will come out nice and easy without tearing.)

This is the cute back side. We had each child stamp their hand print and we added a name a date. I even made a few with pictures of Jesus in case we had a few visitors. (So glad I did since we had 2.) The parents loved them. I love how it looks I my tree.

I finished it off by making custom sized envelopes with our Envelope punch board. We had the kids color them to make them extra special. Then we tied them shut with a quick ribbon and added a tag. I love love love the new scalloped tag topper punch in the occasions mini. It made it so easy to add Christmas tags to these and all my Christmas presents. (Just a note the stamp set is an old Christmas tag set the I love to use every year. It makes tags so easy and I never run out.)

Personally I love having ornament that are pictures of my kids. It’s so fun to get them out as see them every year. Hopefully you are inspired to make a cute ornament for your tree next year using some of our great products mixed with your imagination.

A Little Thank You Tag

I had the opportunity this week to go down to Stampin’ Up! and help the advisory board with a project. I wanted to take them a little gift just to say “thank you.” I had lots of zucchini thanks to awesome Dad so I decided to make little zucchini breads with this cut tag. I love how they turned out and it was so fun to share them with the hard working team. I used the leaf from the holiday catalog along with a thank you set and the grunge set from the maim catalog.

I challenge you to brighten someones day with a fun hand crafted gift. These simple tags were so quick but very much appreciated.
