Soft & Subtle Petite Petals

Yesterday I shared the wine charms I made for my Team Winter Retreat and today I’m sharing some of the Shoebox Swap items – Check out these great projects that we made.

This first card was Cindy’s she loves the Subtle Collection of colors and this card defiantly showcases that.

Petite Petals BMS Winter Weekend Shoebox Swap 2016

Cindy used the Petite Petals (133152/133155) and Pictorgram Punches stamp set (134261/134264) to create a variety of flowers. She added a bit of layering to create interest and some Stampin’ Dimensionals to add more interest and depth.

The sentiment she used is from our Cottage Greetings stamp set (138940/139962).

Anna used one of my favorite Sale-a-bration stamp sets – Sky is the Limit (141282/141349) and the World Traveler Embossing Folder (138289).

Anna  also chose Soft Sky from our  Subtles Collection.

This last item is a 3d item and Janette loves creating gift items just like I do!

Moments Like These Note Pad BMS Winter Weekend Shoebox Swap 2016

Cute right? It holds a little note pad. Janette used our Project Life Moments Like These (138740) and the Have a Cuppa Designer Series Paper Stack (140567) and Bermuda Bay 1/8″ Stitched Ribbon (140569) along with the too cute Bow Paper Clips (140559) that are found in the Occasions Catalog.

Sorry about the lighting, I was having problems today with photos since we are expecting a winter weather event here in North Georgia and it is really over cast.

By The Tide Cupcakes

Ok, here is the last post showing you some of the items I made for my Retirement Party this past Sunday. Today I am going to share with you how I made these cute little By the Tide cupcake toppers for the treat table and my Bon Voyage banner.

By the Tide Retirement Party Cupcakes

I used the By the Tide stamp set (item 129117/129120) from the Spring Catalog to make these cute little toppers to keep in line with the Bon Voyage theme of the retirement party.

I stamped the anchor image using Night of Navy Classic Ink (item 126970) onto Whisper White card stock (item 100730). Punched out the image using my 3/4″ Circle Punch (item 119873) and attached this to a 1 1/4″ Scallop Circle Punch (item 127811)Night of Navy card stock (item 100867) piece.

I then layered that onto a Real Red card stock (item 100052) 1 3/8″ circle and finally onto a 1 3/4″ Scallop Circle (item 119854) Night of Navy piece.

Finally I added a dab of Liquid Adhesive (item 110755) to the back and added a toothpick and a second Night of Navy Scallop Circle to cover up the adhesive.

Here is a close up of the cupcake topper. How cute right?

And finally the banner – I really loved the way this turned out. I used My Digital Studio  along with the Travel Journey Digital Kit (item 121071) and World Traveler Photobook (item 130066) Digital Downloads to create the images and Designer Series Paper that I cut the letters out with using my Big Shot.

Bon Voyage Banner (1)

I took my Regals Designer Series Paper Stack (item 117154) and used the Night of Navy patterns and cut my paper into 4″ x 6″ pieces. I cut out the bottom triangles by finding the center, cutting up the middle to the point I wanted and then cutting in from both sides to that center mark. (hope that makes sense) Finally I attached the flags to some twine by punching holes in the two corners using my crop-a-dile and stringing the twine through. I tied bows on each end to finish it off.

NEW World Traveler Download Available

I had so much fun putting together the last couple of pages using the World Traveler download I shared with you that I thought I would do a couple more quickly today. I love the fact that I can finish a 2 page scrapbook layout so quickly. I just chose my favorite photos and then had the My Digital Studio program drop them in for me after I chose the folder I wanted. 

World Traveler (Item #130066, $17.95) comes with a 26 page photo book template, 28 piece stamp brush set, 8 Designer Series Paper patterns and 24 embellishments! What a super value.

World Traveler MDS Download

My daughter and I are visiting my sister and brother in-law in Houston. We’re having such a great time together and doing a lot. I can’t decide who is wearing out whom.

Today I wanted to share with you one of our new My Digital Studio downloads, World Traveler. I couldn’t wait to use it – It’s a great deal for just $17.95 and makes putting your vacation photos together sooo easy! Here are a couple of pages I put together quickly this morning over coffee while visiting with my sister. I used the basic photo book template and then just added a couple more photos of my own to the page. It was so easy-peasy.
