CCMC Satuday Blog Hop - I Just Called To Say I Love You

Good Morning, Stampers!

We are finishing up July with the 80's themed music
this week at the Create with Connie and Mary Saturday Blog Hop.
The final theme is "I Just Called to Say I Love You".
This theme is great for so many occasions or event!


I kept my card simple and highlighted the gorgeous

a delicate and feminine label is 
great for a wedding, anniversary or bridal shower.

OSAT Blog Hop – All You Need is Love

Good Morning, Stampers!


Welcome to the February OSAT Blog Hop - 
All You Need is Love!

If you are following along on the hop, you are arriving from Pam's blog
Her projects are always so inspiring! If you are just starting out, you will
be guided at the end of this post to continue.

My first project is something I used to do as a kid. 
It's a fun project that wraps baker's twine dipped in equal parts
glue and water and then wrap around a balloon to dry.
Before I started though, I added candy kisses inside the ballon
before blowing it up. Then, when the balloon is popped, the 
candy stays inside the little ball! So fun!

Of course, "Sealed with a Kiss" is the perfect sentiment for
this! A little treat of hugs and kisses! 


My second project is a simple card that can
be used for a wedding, anniversay, birthday, etc.
Really, any event that involves LOVE!

I never realized how well the Mixed Borders stamp set
and the Bloomin' Hearts suite work perfectly together.
I love that Stampin' Up! had coordinating products - 
Makes it so easy to create!

Stamping and embossing with Versamark and clear 
embossing powder is a simple and subtle way to fill
empty space without taking away from the main
focal point of the card. I think it adds a touch of
elegance to the card, too!



Now,head over to Lori's blog to see what
she has to share with you!

Botanical Anniversary

Good Morning, Stampers!

For today's project, I added a fun little detail to this anniversary card. The tag was cut with the fern from the Botanical Builder framelits and then stamped and added to the card with Stampin' Dimensionals. It gives dimension and adds a little interest to a simple card. Of course, a little gold sequin bling helps, too!

Paper: Whisper White
Accessories: Tags and Labels framelits, Gold Cord Trim, Botanical Builder framelits, Gold Sequins
