Make It Monday - So In Love In Color Note Cards





Good Morning Everyone! I hope you had a great weekend. I enjoyed the last few days of my Spring Break, and now it's back to school. My Make It Monday share is a set of Note Cards created with the Stampin' Up! So In Love stamp set and coordinating So Detailed Thinlits dies. By pairing this bundle with the Retiring In Colors 2015-2017 and the Papillon Potpourri stamp set, these cards were quick and easy to assemble.

Peanuts and Peppers Crafting Pointers:
  • Each Card Base is 4" x 8", which means you can get two cards from one sheet of card stock.
  • My Monochromatic Color Scheme included Mint Macaron, Watermelon Wonder, and Whisper White.
  • I stamped and punched the butterflies using the Elegant and Bitty Butterfly Punches.
  • I embellished with Pearls and Whisper White Baker's Twine to finish both cards off.

In Colors Card base: 4" x 8"
Whisper White Card Layer: 3 1/4" x 3 1/4"

Try It Thursday - Succulent Framelits Dies Treat Box






Good Morning Everyone! My Try It Thursday Share is a Treat Box created with the Stampin' Up! Succulent Framelits Dies. Inspired by Linda Heller, I changed the colors and a few details to make them my own. This project shows not only the versatility of the dies, but also, how they can be used for other occasions. Don't forget that the Succulent Framelits Dies are retiring, so get them while they last!

Peanuts and Peppers Crafting Pointers:
  • I used the 2' x 2" Clear Tiny Treat Boxes for my treats.
  • The Belly Band is created from the Succulent Garden Designer Series Paper.
  • The Succulent Flower is cut from Pool Party card stock and sponged in Rich Razzleberry Ink.
  • I embellished with Succulent Garden 3/8" Ribbon Combo Pack and Pearl in the middle of the flower.

Treat Box Belly Band Measurements:
1 Strip of Succulent Garden Designer Series Paper at: 1 1/2" x 9"
