Valentine Treat Holder

Hello my crafty friends!  I wanted to share a video I made to show a treat holder I made using a punch from Stampin' Up.  They are so quick and easy to make.

I hope to hear from you!  Thanks for watching.

Cardz TV Go-to Galz Challenge #38 "Ghost and Goblin Party"

Hello my friends!  It's Friday!  That means another Cardz TV Go-to Galz Challenge!  We were to make a card, layout or other project using ghosts and goblins.  For my project I used two Cardz TV Stamps sets.  The "Things that go bump in the night" came from the "More Spooky Sayings."  The "Happy Halloween" came from the "Trick or Treat" set.

I used my Stampin' Up owl builder punch for the ghost, witch and bat.  I used part of that punch for the bristles of the broom.  The witches hat was made using the small oval punch, and part of the Blossom Builder punch.   For the top of the tree I used a scallop punch for the the tree.  The patterned paper is from a Doodlebug 6 x 6 Halloween paper pack.  For the fence I used the Stampin' Up scallop border punch and scored it.  The spider is a Studio G punch.   For the inside I used my favorite corner punch.

Now it's your turn!  Create a card, layout, or other craft project for Halloween using ghosts and goblins.  You have until noon EST October 31st.  Once you've completed it, head on over to Mary's blog and enter your project.  She will be giving away a set of her awesome stamps to the winner.

I hope you stop by the other ladies' blogs on the Design Team for more inspiration.  You won't be disappointed.  I would really love to hear what you think of my project.  If you are a new visitor to my blog, I hope you become a follower.  I would LOVE to have you!  Have a great weekend!

Cardz TV Design Team "Brew Ha Ha" Blog Hop Day Two

Welcome to day two of the Cardz TV Design Team "Brew Ha Ha!" Blog Hop!  I hope you have had a chance to go through our Hop to see all of the amazing projects my Design Team sisters have created.  Don't you just love the new Cardz TV Stamps "Brew Ha Ha!" set that our Design Team collaborated on?  I know I do!  This is a definite must have.

                                       
For my card, the base is 4 1/4 x 5 1/2.  I found this cute patterned paper at Bennion Crafts by Graphic 45.  When I saw this I knew exactly what I wanted to do with it!  It measures 4 x 5 1/4.  For the little tea set I pulled out my Once Upon a Princess cartridge.  When I found them in the book I knew I had to cut them because of the crown.  (This Queen definitely loves crowns!) I cut the little tea cups out at 3/4 inches for both layers.  The tea pot was cut out at 1 3/4 inches.  I used a silver gel pen for the handles and the tops and bottoms of the cups and tea pot. I used a Stampin' Up! scallop edge punch, and a Martha Stewart edge punch.  For the sentiments, I used two Stampin' Up! punches.  I don't know if you can see it, but I put some Tulle behind the sentiment.  I added some pearls from Recollections in the corners.

Don't forget to stop by Mary's blog and leave a comment for your chance to win 2 sets of Cardz TV stamps!  Also, don't forget that I am giving away a K & Company Smash book.  All you have to do to be entered is  1.
