"Just Buzzin' By" Gift-Card Holder

This is a gift card holder that I had my customers make recently at a workshop. I love this set. It was made with Yoyo Yellow cardstock cut at 4 1/4" x 11" and scored at 3", 5 1/2", and 8". I folded the scored lines with a Bone Folder to make nice creases. It will look like a "W". I applied Sticky Strip to the edges of one of the middle sections to hold the two middle sections together, but not on the center fold. On the center fold, I used the Word Window Punch to make the opening for a gift card by punching through the fold at both ends, but not pushing the punch all the way in (just half way). Then I used the 3/4" circle punch in the center.

Easter Chick

This is an Easter Chick. I saw all the other cute chicks made with the Big Shot and the Top Note Die, I wanted to make one of my own.

Easter Basket

This is an Easter Basket I made using the Scallop Envelope. Sorry, the picture is so blurry.

Well, I can't believe I'm so far behind in my blogging. I completely missed March and now it's the last day in April. I have been busy though, so I will post some photos of some of my projects and then write about them later.

Polka Dot Punches Heart

This is a card I created using a couple of the new Sale-a-bration sets "Yummy" and "Polka Dot Punches" that I had my customers do at a recent workshop. We used Night of Navy cardstock, Bashful Blue cardstock, and Whisper White. They loved using the Big Shot using the Top Note Die. Ink was Night of Navy and the ribbon was the 1/4" Night of Navy Grosgrain ribbon. We used the new Full Heart punch that coordinated with the Polka Dot Punches SAB set.

Love You Much Top Note Die Candy Box

It was so much fun to make this candy box. I learned how to make it from Lyn Put's instructions that she had found on Splitcoast from KarenG. I didn't have light weight card board, so I cut up a cereal box to use instead. I used a glue stick to glue a piece of copy paper to the side of the cereal box. On the other side of the cereal box, I put Chocolate Chip card stock. Then I sandwiched all into my Sizzix Big Shot. I then ran the Candy Cane DSP through the Big Shot using the Top Note Die again. I trimmed the edge and glued it to the Chocolate Chip Top Note. I decorated the top using the Heart to Heat Punch, Trio Flower Punch, Crop-a-dile, Mini Glue Dots, Riding Hood Red Taffeta Ribbon.

Love You Much Valentine

This is my latest creation made with the Love You Much Bundle. I used the In-Colors Pink Pirouette and Riding Hood Red. The DSP is called Candy Cane which is also in the Bundle. I stamped the LOVE image with Black Stazon and colored it in with a Blender Pen and the Riding Hood Red ink pad. I used the Heart to Heart punch that came with the Bundle to punch out the hearts after I stamp them on Riding Hood Red cardstock. I also used the Scallop Circle Punch and used a 1/8" hand-held punch to punch out the holes. I used the Scallop Edge Punch on the Candy Cane DSP. I used dimensionals to attach two of the hearts. I used the 1" Circle Punch on the Hugs and Kisses and attached to the center of the Scallop Circle.
