Hearts Theme Week Challenge = Julie

Hi everyone!

Its theme week over at Stamp Anniething!

Its all about HEARTS!

I took the ADORABLE  Julie- Enjoy the Ride stamp and masked out her basket of flowers as best I could. so that I could proceed with my next step! I randomly stamped hearts in a cluster and actually just glued it on top of the basket (lol)

I also used the Heart Balloons from Kelly - Happy

I used these fun card mat dies for my card base. Dies make card making go so much faster/easier!

I hope you enjoyed my Heart Themed Julie and I hope you will participate with us in the Theme Week Challenge!

Hi Everyone, Its Annie from CreatingAnniething....
ya sick yet of seeing the same markers and patterned paper used over and over?
Just goes to show you, you do not need EVERY color marker and every paper out there to make completely different and FUN items!!

I made cute Diana as a Valentine Hand out!

I cut her with my Scan N Cut 2 and colored her with my copics.

I attached her to the Layered Frame & Journal Die, stamped a circle border from a discontinued Set and put a heart shaped candy in the center.

I also added an icon from Valentine Bingo to her lunchbox and the XOXO large sentiment from Valentine Designer Tapes!

Hi Everyone, Its Annie from CreatingAnniething and I want to share my project with you, once again using all the same SUPPLIES from Monday and Tuesday!

I colored the super fun BROOKE today!

I found these fun Rose Lollipops at Walmart and so thought... 

It fits in my PINK theme!

I cut the Scallop Slider and Topper Die and added the GC slot to hold the Lollipop in place!

The Flag Die was perfect for the Lollipops Galore Sentiment and I added a small candy charm die with a Doodlebug heart button.

Remember my post yesterday stating I used all the SAME Supplies? Well here is a different look using the same copics and paper!!

I LOVE how she came out! I placed her on the Vintage Label Card Base

She is matted on the Layered Frame & Journal Die, then I added a flag from Candy Charms & Banners, and stamped a sentiment on a Mini Tag Die.

I used the Valentine Designer Tapes stamps for the "faux" washi background.

Sour Patch Kids!! These are my son's favorites (one of them)... and I must admit, I love them too!

So homage to my boy Colin, my very own Sour Patch Kid!

Cause sometimes he really is sour, but underneath VERY SWEET!!

 I used the Sour Patch FREEBIE file (Today Only) to make a sweet and simple CAS style card (just cut a standard A2 size and then matted it with the awesome Card Mat dies.  I LOVE the sentiment from Got Candy? - it works on so many levels!  I added some doodle sprinkles in the candy colors and wrapped some black and white twine to ground it.  I also made a treat bag filled with these delicious candies. I placed them in a gusset bag and filled 'er up.... used the treat tag die and another sentiment from Got Candy?  Life really would be sour with my Colin in it!

 Side view of the gummy kids!!

I added diamond dust glitter to all the edges to give them that sugar coated look and feel.  

Remember this Sour Patch file is free TODAY ONLY.

DMW Bee Mine release - Just Because!!

Welcome to the Digi My World BE MINE digital stamp release!

All week long we will have some wonderful inspirational project to share with you!

My Project today is...

I used my new TRIART Markers to color this cutie in and was actually pretty pleased with the results.  Triart is a alcohol based marker, just like copics, but smaller and less expensive. In NO MEANS do I intend to abandoned my Copics, but this is a great fill in way to get those colors you need when you can't afford the pricey markers right away!

Ok so the project!! This is V day Puppy, and he will be available on FRIDAY.

What I love about the images, they are not just for Valentines Day! I am using this cutie for a Just Because card!

I colored the pup and matted him on the Ticket Book Die and matted that onto the Side Cut Lacy Card base. I stamped the sentiment from Random Act of Kindness on the Mini Tag Dies. 

***BLOG CANDY***

Want to win some of these fun new digital stamps?

Its easy and fun to do!

Each day we will pick one random winner from the comments made on the blog!

Super Quick Valentine project

Here is an SUPER fast and simple one to make when you are in a time crunch!!

All ya need is some Jaded Blossom Tubes, Dies and sentiments! Super fast and easy... you can squeeze these out in a heartbeat!

Fill your Tubes with Kisses

Die cut your Treat tag Die, Scallop Heart and Heart.

I punched a 3/4 hole in my heart and then stamped the puzzle piece to show through.  Stamped a sweet little sentiment on a mini banner die... and then wrapped the top and bottom of the tube with the hearts border die.

Accent with some Twine..and there you go... quick and easy treats for class parties or family!

Valentine Scratch Off Coupons, DIY!!

Hi everyone... today I wanted to share with you some fun and simple DIY Scratch off Valentines Coupons!  Now you can really use this concept for just about anything...but since Valentines Day is just around the corner, I opted to make some fun Coupons for the hubby!
Now I won't lie...these do take some planning.... the actual making of them is a piece of cake..but the planning is VERY important!
So gather around the supplies you will need which are:
Metallic Paint, Clear Dish soap, Rubber stamps, Packing Tape,Painters Tape, all the paper and dies and embellies you plan to use.


This first thing you need to do is come up with some sort of "template" for your coupons/card etc.  You need to do this important step so you know where things will be layed out so you know where to put your Scratch Off Part.  I just created on my computer a simple plain Coupon template.. that has a box for my scratch off (planning comes in handy cause you need to know which stamps you plan to use to make sure your box is the right size!)

Nest you need to stamp what your coupon is good for.  In my examples, I am offering up Dinner on Me, A Good Lunch, Something Pretty, The Movies, etc.  I had all these wonderful stamps on the JB Gift Card Galore Set.

Next you need to mask off the area that will be your "scratch Off" with your packing tape.  I used an exact-o knife to make it the exact square of my window.

Next you need to take some PAINTERS tape and mask around your area so when you paint it..it doesnt get on the Coupon part of your card. Then you need to mix 2 Parts Paint to 1 Part Dish Soap.... mix it WELL and then do a light coat over your window area.

 THE HARD PART?  Letting each coat dry in between...YES it takes several coats... so don't rush it..do a thin coat, allow it to dry..then apply another and another!!

Once your paint is completely dry... peel off your painters tape... decorate your coupon card with stamps, dies, embellishments, etc...and your final project looks something like this!

 All Stamps and Dies are from Jaded Blossom.  We used Gift Cards Galore,  Simple Sayings Valentine Editions,  and Valentines Die.

Cupid In Clouds, Digi My World Stamp release!

Hi everyone! Annie here to show you a super quick and easy treat I made for Valentines Day!
I used the new Cupid In Cloud Digital Stamp and colored him with my copics.  The set comes with quite a few adorable images, I choose the one of the boy laying on his tummy looking down from the clouds!

 

I added my image to a treat bag filled with Hershey Kisses!  I used the Fancy topper Die from Jaded Blossom and their Scallop Heart from Valentines Die to put my sentiment on.  I used a cute one from Sprinkled with Love.  The kisses are lots of fun too, because I used the Conversation Candies to put on the bottom.  Isn't this cute?  Fast and easy treat bag to hand out to the kids classes this year!  Oh and I tied some wonderful Pink twine on too... I got it from Pick Your Plum..its got 2 shades of pink and white twisted.....its really THICK twine, I LOVE IT!
