A Tour of some "Super-Star" Valentine's Projects by various SU! Talent!

HI....fellow crafters!

I am sick - just the bad headache and stuffed up head kinda sick, but its putting a curve ball to my major cleaning and crafting.

Soooooo....I thought I would take a detour from crafting myself and see what others are up to - and WOW there are such great ideas out there, huh? Collectively we are all awesome!!!!

So here is what I have found so far......I'll add to it as I go along till I'm better - enjoy!

Stampin' Up! Stars

What comes in small packages? Check these out.....

1.).the first is a super-cute project from LeeAnn Gref and her blog Flowerbug's Inkspot and its her Valentine's Dresser........how cute is this! It features the Matchbox Bigz XL Die, a few punches and our latest Love Letter DSP, glimmer brads and the lovely red glitter cardstock. Very nicely done!

LeeAnn tucked some treats and 'love'ly coupons in order to pamper her husband! Awesome idea for anyone on your list...your MOM, children,.a BFF, or to keep your neighbour on your good side...bribe them with a few favours! LOL!

HERE is another sweet 'box' project. Tammy Howell from her blog, Tarheel Stamper. By using a papermache box and our Daisies #2 Bigz Die, she has created her Valentine Heart Box - and I love the crimped collar around the top's side....sweet!

The Daisy die has 3 sizes of the flower - which is how Tammy made such a lush-looking daisy! What a cute button too!

Alright I wanted to showcase a card, but then I found THIS NEXT IDEA....!!!

Our STAMPIN' UP! brads, buttons, small embellishments usually come in small round translucent containers, right? Right - and this talented SU! Demonstrator has discovered that 'another' person dressed up these containers - so she 'cased' the idea and came up with these.....!!! Aren't they worth the love that goes into making them?

Catherine Cote featured project on her blog, CeeCee's Creations.....last year, but they're well worth repeating......

....awwwh, how cute!

Another one below....

Well that's it today - I promise to dig up some card and scrapbooking ideas!

I'm off to rest - how do you do one of those 'sleeping faces' ...++ 0 [I don't think so, lol!]

Beautiful Birthday Card from my Daughter

I was ' speechless ' on my birthday when my daughter presented me with her own hand-made card for me! Reason is that when we got up that morning we were in each other's company and yet somehow she managed to sneak off into my craft room and pull this together without me knowing it - - I was totally caught off guard, lol -- and loved it!!! She has always impressed me with her creativity because she doesn't do hand-craft items very often - she is more of an 'online creator' - I have her to thank for all my web banners and general blog technical help :) I was happy to see the cute butterfly resting on the branch, that is something I would not of thought of! Anyways, it was a lovely gesture and a thoughtful card. Beverly SUPPLIES LIST Stampin' Up! Eastern Bloom and Kindred Spirit stamp sets. Bella Rose Designer Paper Pink Pirouette cardstock.

YNS Challenge #3 YNSC3

Hi folks, Having fun this week playing with my fav summer theme of sea creatures! And to justify it even more, I am playing along with YOUR NEXT STAMP's CHALLENGE #3 "Anything Goes"! You can see their challenge details HERE ! Deadline is Weds. midnight. I already was toying with ideas involving 3D projects lately and wanted to do something within a frame, and so I put two'n'two together and here is my entry....my " Mermaids Playing in the Sun Shadow Box ". The frame was one I had for awhile, maybe two years? And my stamps from Your Next Stamp are the adorable mermaid set, Happy Birthday Mermaid which I acquired about two years ago also! Coincidence - I think not! LOL! Later I plan to embellish this even more once I find my darn box of tiny shells! Maybe some charms? Heck who knows! :) I am going to write up a more detailed post about creating this by the week-end, so return here if you care for that. Tomorrow I am going to be trainin

Fun with Tags!

That is exactly what I had with this tag.....amongst all the oodles of cards I am making for a craft fair coming up, I am taking breaks by making projects that use all kinds of different elements. Sort of like a cardstock 'stew', lol. Cute Gift Tag or Notecard TAG BASE 1. First, I started with a small piece of cardstock of 3 x 6 inches, folded to create a square 3 x 3 inch tag. 2. I layered a BAJA BREEZE cardstock square on top of the tag - I used my SCALLOP TRIM CORNER PUNCH to create the pretty corners! 3. To rev it up a bit, I glittered the bottom of the tag with some of Dazzling Diamonds. TAG DECORATION 4. I stamped my lil' WALRUS on a punched out '1-3/4 in.' Circle of Whisper White cardstock - then while I "masked" him, I stamped the background with a snowflake stamp from JOLLY OLD ST NICK set. 5. Next I placed the stamped circle onto a larger green circle, and and trans
