Valentine’s Day “cards”

 

Here is a quick Valentine’s Day project I created and wanted to share with you, my valued blog followers! 

These were so SUPER easy to make, but my kiddo loves them!  That’s the important thing, right?

Here is a photo of all of the ones I made.  We made one for the teacher and I snuck an extra in there to my sweet girl, from me.  She has no idea and won’t until she starts distributing them in class.  :-)

 

Products used on this project:

• Hearts - Doodlecharms Cricut Cartridge
• Inks – Ranger Distress Ink in Worn Lipstick and Black Soot
• Ranger Glossy Accents
• foam dimensionals
• Sentiment – SSD Label Accents 
• cardstock
• ribbon
• sucker/lollipop

Here is a short video showing how I made these.  They’re seriously………SUPER simple! 

I made a gift bag out of a paper lunch sack too, but seems I didn’t upload the pics to my computer after I took them.  *sigh*  I will upload those in another post once I get them onto my computer…..  :-)

I hope you all have a wonderful Valentine’s Day!!

Hello there!

I hope this finds you having a happy Monday!  It’s a little chilly in central Texas…..well, chilly to a Texas girl.  It’s probably a heat wave to those of you that experienced all the snow over the weekend.  You know what I have to say about that?  MOVE!!!!  LOL

Anywho, it’s time for a new challenge at Scrappy Frogs.  The theme for the month is DIE CUTS!  How super easy!  I made this card at a recent Stampin Up function and decided I’d use it, since it’s almost Valentine’s Day!  :-)

• Take it to Heart stamp set
• Full Heart Punch
• Word Window Punch
• First Edition Specialty DSP
• Real Red Cardstock
• Very Vanilla Cardstock

Good news……

Hi Friends!

You may recall THIS POST from the end of December, where I mentioned that I was applying for the Scrapbook Pal design team.  The entries were being accepted until Jan 23 and I, honestly, didn’t think I had a snowball’s chance in……….well, you know!  ;-)

Well, guess what?  I received an email yesterday afternoon congratulating me on being selected for their team.  Ah I excited?  Heck yeah!  Pinching myself to see if I’m dreaming?  You bet!  LOL

My new teammates and I have been chatting behind the scenes already and everyone is SO nice!  I’m really looking forward to working with Scrapbook Pal and creating with their super cute products!!! 

Have you shopped Scrapbook Pal before?  No?  Well, you’re missing out!  They have TONS to choose from, their prices are great and their free shipping amount is pretty low too!  Here are just a few of my favorites!! 

• Spellbinders
• Ranger
• Cricut
• Copic markers

OH MY!!!  he he!  :-)

I ordered a few stamp sets from Pink by Design and I’m ANXIOUS to get them!  The ideas are flowing and I can’t wait to plaaaaaayyyyyy!! 

Anyway, that’s all for today!  Thanks for stopping by!  I hope you’ll come back for a visit again soon.

PS – if you’re in the central Texas area and you’re interested in classes, please be sure to keep an eye on my “upcoming classes” page. 

365 Ways…

 

This project is an idea my photographer friend, Kelli, emailed me and asked me to make for her.  I had so much fun making it and liked it so much that I made another one for myself.  :-)

Here are the photos of the one I made for Kelli. 

Here are photos of the one I made to keep!  :-)

I’m sure you can’t tell from the photos, but “I Love You” on the hearts have Spica on them to make them shimmer.  It’s so subtle that I couldn’t get a photo to pick it up……….and trust me when I say I took a ton of photos of both in an attempt to pick up the shimmer.  Ah, well!

Anyway, the main difference between the one I made for Kelli and the one I kept for myself is the “365”.  For her vase, I did individual numbers and popped them up.  For the one I’m keeping, I made it into a layered tag. 

Thanks for stopping by!  :-)

On Your Birthday….

 

Happy Sunday evening!

So, my mom is a New Year’s ‘baby’ and since she and my dad are the ones that bought the Cricut Imagine for me for Christmas, I decided to use it to make my mom’s birthday card.  I mailed it FOREVER ago and I have yet to hear from my mom that she’s received it.  She’s horrible about going and getting her mail at the PO!  LOL

For this card, I used:

• Cricut Imagine
• Cricut Imagine Baby Boutique
• JustRite Just Because Mini Sentiments
• Lace
• Tim Holtz Distress Ink
• Couture Cardstock
• i-rock crystal gems

Tell me how GORGEOUS that frame is!!!!  I absolutely LOVE this cartridge!! 

This card has been used to apply for the DT call on Creative Critterz Imaginations.  :-)

And while we’re talking DT……make sure you swing by Scrappy Frogs Challenge Blog and link up your LACE project!  It can be a card, 3D item, scrapbook page, etc.  Just make sure it’s a new project and uses lace!

Wishing you a GREAT week!
