Stampin' Up! Made With Love Valentine Treat Holder for the SU Demos Fun Fold Hop

Hello my stamping friends.  Welcome to our monthly Stampin' Up! Demos Fun Fold Blog Hop and the first one of the year!! The participating demonstrators are listed at the end of my post. I hope you will choose to hop along. Here's what I created for the hop today...

 

 

 

Let's take a closer look, shall we?

I used the Made for Love Designer Series Paper and sentiments from the To Every Season Stamp Set (retired). I used Real Red Ink. The pink ribbon is Bubble Bath Faux Linen and the Real Red Solid 1/8" Ribbon is retired. The hearts are cut with the retired Sweet & Sassy Dies.

 

My instructions came from Tara Carpenter. Thanks Tara for a great video!  

 

I'm entering my treat holders in Pammie's Inky Pinkies Anything Goes Challenge.

Make Over Monday Madness

My card today is a makeover of the one I posted here. Let's take a look see...

This was the last of the scripture cards from Taylored Expressions and the last of the digital paper from Kendra Morgan...unless I decide to print it again. I haven't decided what to do with the inside, so that's all folks!

Thanks for stopping by today and I hope you'll be back tomorrow for our Stampin' Up! Demos Fun Fold Hop. 
 

Stampin' UP! Floral Delight Fun Fold Birthday Card

Good frosty morning my stamping followers. So far, I've got nothing here in east TN except for fog and frost on the ground. I hope it stays bare and I hope you are safe wherever you are. Now, if I were back in FL, I'd be a lot warmer but it IS 34 degrees here so I'll take it! Let's put a little spring in the air today, okay? 

I just adore the Floral Delight DSP and this fun fold shows both sides. The paper is no longer available but the Everyday Arches Dies are! The butterflies are from my stash and were cut out years ago when I first started stamping.

This card is soooooo easy to create with any 12" x 12" patterned paper that you have. You can actually make two cards at one time and I did just that after being inspired by a video Claire did from Created the Ottaway (interesting craft name!).

You take one piece of 12" x 12", cut two pieces at 5 1/2" x 12" and with the 1" strip that's left, you can make two 1/2" belly bands.  You score the main pieces at 1 3/4", 4 3/4", and 7 3/4". Fold it so it looks like this...

I used the 3rd, 4th and 5th largest arch dies cutting Very Vanilla, Lemon Lolly and Pool Party card stock. The 30th was achieved by cutting Mossy Meadow card stock with dies from Birthday Celebration and Large Numbers Framelits (the TH is a stamp from Number of Years Stamp Set). Those dies and stamp set are all retired.  

The birthday stamp and front sentiment are from the retired Birthday Celebration Stamp Set.

Thank you for stopping by today and I hope you enjoyed this fun fold. The second card I created will be posted February 2...stay tuned.

 

 

Stampin' UP! Valentine Birthday Card

Happy Saturday peeps! I have many friends celebrating birthdays around Valentine's Day that I thought this card would be appropriate. Take a look see... 

My card base is Bubble Bath card stock. On a piece of Basic White card stock, with Lovely Lipstick Ink (retired), I sponged the back side of a Heart Doily (retired) in the bottom corner. Then I adhered that doily to the top corner.

Using The Right Words Stamp Set, I stamped the two sentiments in Strawberry Slush. For the inside...

I sponged the corners of a piece of Basic White card stock with Strawberry Slush ink and cut out three Bubble Bath hearts with the retired Country Bouquet Punch. The sentiments are from the Not 29 Anymore Stamp Set. I seem to know a lot of friends who are not 29 anymore...lol. 

Thank you for stopping by today.

Stampin' Up! Love & Happiness Candy Holder

Good morning, peeps. I don't know why I say morning because you might be reading this in the afternoon or evening...if at all...lol! I decided to treat the ladies in my Sunday School class. I wonder if they'll notice the kisses are Santa hats? Did you? Well, they ARE red after all. I bought them for Christmas treats and forgot all about them. Since I don't eat milk chocolate, I had to use them for Valentine treats! Waste not, want not, right? Well, let me show you the simplicity of my gift...

 

I truly hope I don't lose power this weekend as I have no generator and temps are low. At least in Florida I didn't have to worry about being cold if the power went down for a week. I've got plenty of blankets, candles and flashlights :-)

Thank you for stopping by today and stay safe during this major storm watch if you are in harms way.
