Happy Birthday

Aloha friends!  Just wanted to share a quick card I created for a special little boy turning 3.   
 
 
 
The cupcake and cute little dog I created from a stencil called cupcake friends.  This is actually the first time I have worked with stencils and a light box and I really enjoyed it.  The background was cut using the spellbinders polka dots and the sentiment is from Jaded Blossom's Sweet Birthday Wishes.
 
Have a blessed day.....

Cracker Box Favors

Hello my crafty friends!  Today I would like to share 2 projects I created using the quickutz cracker box die. They are so easy to put together. The Mickey Mouse favors were created for a first birthday party.  Each favor contains 4 Hershey's kisses. The second favors were created for a baby shower and contains a see's lollipop in them.  Sentiments for both are from Jaded Blossom.
 

 
Thanks so much for dropping by....
Happy craf10!

~Mini airhead wraps~

Hello my crafty friends. Today my baby girl Janessa turns 8.  Normally I would just send her to school with cupcakes, but I decided to make some wraps for some mini airheads.

These were quick and easy to make. 
I used Jaded Blossom's birthday and number candies for the stamps, a stampin up' punch for
the border strip and a crimper. 
Hope you like them.

~Explosion card~

Aloha! Hope everyone is enjoying their Sunday! I've been so busy with Christmas, that I almost forgot about Grandma's birthday today. I had to whip up a card quickly, and I came up with this explosion card.  I printed out some pictures of my kiddies for the inside of the card and had them write a message on the inside.  Grandma loved it!  She even asked me if I really made it....lol
Here it is......

Jaded Blossom Fancy Topper Die Blog Hop


 

Hello and welcome to the Jaded Blossom Fancy Topper Die Blog Hop.  All of our projects are created using the versatile die pictured above.

If you arrived here from the very talented Kate, then you are in the right place.  If not and you would like to start at the beginning click here. There will also be a complete line up below.

There are so many uses for this die, I just LOVE it....
 Here are my projects using the fancy topper die - a ladybug goody bag, santa goody bag and a purse gift card holder...........








 To create this purse, I folded a 6 x 6 inch cardstock in half and placed it on the topper die, but not completely covering the die as pictured below. The edge of the cardstock that is closer to the exposed part of the die, should be the creased side, and the left side of the cardstock is the open part.

After running your die through your machine, it should look like the picture below.  You now have the base of the purse.



Now who's ready for a prize.  Jaded Blossom will be giving away a $10 gift card to the Jaded Blossom Store. The more blogs you comment on, the more chances you have to win, and for all orders placed this weekend, shipping is FREE when you add the fancy topper die to your order.  Just use the coupon code "FANCYTOPPER"

Here's the entire line up just in case you get lost:



Thanks so much for hopping with us.  Your next stop is the fabulous Trixie.
