Filigree Brad Earrings

I saw earrings HERE and I just had to make some! I love these!

Happiness Fish?

I saw this saying while I was making my fish bowl and I just couldn't help it.
The fish is from the retired Just Beachy stamp set. The bowl and the vellum are punched with the 1 3/4" circle punch. The top vellum is a shortened word window. The top of the water is cut out with a 1/2" circle punch.

S'MORE Love!

I saw a stamp like this in a magazine and I just couldn't help but make them with punches! We like to camp and have fires and my kids love s'mores so I thought this was great.
The marshmallow top is the Large oval punch. The shoes and eyes are the heart to heart punch. The chocolate bar is just one square punch inside another. The chocolate bar nose is a shortened word window.

Tool Box card

I just had to make a card so I could make my tackle box into a tool box! I have not completed the rest of the box yet in red and black but I will post it when I do! This card is using the Totally Tool stamp set.

Here is a picture of the tackle box in the fishing colors. It would be so cute with a red box and a black inside drawer!

ASHLEY sign

I just had to share this... I did this sign for my daughter Ashley, who is 4, and sits and crafts with me all the time. It is all out of paper and some of it is punches. The paper clips and the scissor blades use the Word Window punch. The scissor handles are the Large and Small Oval punches. The pencils also use the word window punch and the paper uses the Spiral Punch. We are going to put it on the wall near Ashley's work station.

Ribbon Butterflies Challenge

I got inspired by the colors in this challenge and that you had to use ribbon for it.

This is the card that I came up with!

I dyed the flowers from the pretties kit and the butterflies are made out of ribbon! I have done them before but I thought I would try one with double ribbon. I thought they came out pretty good.CLICK HERE to see more details about the challenge.

Tackle Box and Vest Card

This tackle box is the perfect present to give to any guy who likes to fish! Fill it with gummy fish and worms or real fishing supplies. Perfect for Father’s Day or a birthday for the guy who is hard to shop for! It can also easily be made into a tool chest and fill it with screws, nails and bolts. The box is approximately 6” across and 4” deep.
This would be a great present for Valentine's day filled with candy!

Bra and Panties Card

The front of the card...

...and the back!!!

I saw this card and just had to make one of my own. I had made one with the same idea a long time ago but it's so great with the Bride DSP I just had to do it again!

I saw this HERE and you can get the template HERE!

I used the Scallop Trim punch for the bra straps and the Scallop Border punch for the lace. The heart to heart punch is for the little heart in the center of the bra. This would make a great ladies night out invitation or for a bridal shower or bachelorette party. So funny!

Tess has legs! I thought if I drew Tess some legs I could do a little more with this stamp set.

The owl card is made using the scallop square die cut with the big shot. Here is how I did it.

Fold a paper in half that is big enough to cover the scallop square leaving the folded part just below where it would get cut.(Notice the white gel pen lines to center my papers more easily. I have this on all my dies to show me the center.)

Turn your paper like shown centered in the die. This will give it the circle, octagon shape.
This is the shape you will get.
And it opens like a card!
This is how I cut the moon for the moon swing card. Just cut the first circle out of cardstock and then the second one around it.
More cards to come soon!
