Envelope Die Purse

Happy Saturday, stampers! It is not sunny here today but it is nice that it's not raining.



I cased this cute little purse from Lynn over at LW Design. This purse uses two envelope dies to make and it holds four 3x3 note card plus envelopes. You can fill it with treats if you like with two note cards in this little purse. Makes a nice little gift to family and friends.

The flowers on the note cards and the purse are from the SAB set Polka Dot Punches. I use the envelope dies that Charlotte sent me awhile ago to make the purse. Isn't this purse cute? I love it!

Have a great day and thanks for stopping by!

Happy Stamping!

Welcome Wagon Bridal Showcase

Well, I did it! The show went great and there were over 100 brides plus guests last night. This was my first time doing a show so I guess I did pretty good. Thank you Donna and Janice for helping me out at the show! You ladies are awesome!

Here are some pictures of the display.

I got to have a display table and a little round table for the make and take.

Here is the make and take table. Each brides and guests get to make a tag. It was something very easy and fast cause there was only one hour for them to go look at all the booths.

I display all the favours on the biscuits/cookies tier.


Thanks for looking and thank you those who came by to visit my display table.

Happy Stamping!

Mini Squash Book

Well, I'm finally done creating for the Bridal Showcase and I can't wait to showcase all my SU! creations. This will be fun. I'm nervous and at the same time excited about it. This is my firs time and I hope it will go well.

Isn't this cute? This is another sample that I'm displaying at the Bridal Showcase. It measures 3" x 3". It is small enough to carry it around in your purse and show off your beautiful wedding pictures. It is also a great gift to give to your wedding party.

Here is a picture without the tied ribbon.

Here is the inside. I just left it plain.

Happy Stamping!

Happy Birthday Jarod!

I can't believe he is 10 years old! Where has the time gone to?

We are taking him to Chucky Cheese for his birthday and the closes one is in Langley, we live in Vancouver. Way too far! But it is his 10th birthday so I think it is worth it.

I have never been there so it will be exciting.

Have a great weekend!

Just Buzzing By...

Sorry, for the MLA. I'm busy getting ready for the Welcome Wagon Bridal Showcase next week. But for now I'll share with you a cute card i got from my upline. Isn't it cute? Love those bees! You can find this cute set on page 57 of the Spring/Summer catalogue.

Well, got to run as I still have a lot of projects needs to be done. Thanks for stopping by!

Happy Valentine's Day

Wishing you all a Happy Valentine's Day! We didn't celebrate Valentine today. We went to my sister's house warming party. We already celebrated Valentine's Day on Thursday at our church Couple's Banquet. My husband also got me a box of Lindt chocolates for the occasion. They're my favourite.


This was a three panel wall hanging for a class last night. Each panel measures 5" x7". We used the ginger Blossom DSP for the background for all three panels. Used the Love You Much stamp set for the sentiments. Punched some hearts out with the Heart to Heart punch and place them wherever you like. Put brads through the hole of the flower fusions and adhere them with mini glue dots. The ladies did a beautifully job with their projects and of course I forgot to take pictures.

This project is always a hit. I did this project for Mother's day class last year and all the ladies loved it.


Thank you for stopping by!

Happy Mail Day

I received all these goodies from a blogging friend, Charlotte. Hi, Charlotte! Isn't she sweet? I love all these stuff especially the chocolate covered Macadamias all the way from Hawaii. mmm....yum! There was Top Note dies, mini envelope dies, baker's twine (very nice IRL, good for tags), lunch bags (cut and ready for me to make gift bags with the Top Note dies), note pads for grocery shopping to go with a really roomy grocery bag (the one in the back of the picture with all the foods on it) and yummy treats. Oh! And two cute cards, too!

Here is a close up of on of the card. The Japenese doll is so cute!

And here are the note pads she made. Small enough to put it in your purse for grocery shopping.

Diaper Fold Pouch

I'm making some samples to display at the Bridal Show coming up in two weeks. This will be one of them. I did the diaper fold pouch. I think this can be a nice little favours for the bride to give away at her wedding.

To make this, fold a 6"x6" piece of designer paper it in half diagonally. Take one of the lower corners of your triangle and fold it over to the middle of the other triangle side. Take the other lower corner of the triangle and fold it over to the middle of the opposite side. Take one layer of your top corner and fold it down to create your pouch.


I filled a cello bag with pink M&Ms, tied with a pink grosgrain ribbon. For the tag I stamped "thanks so much" on whisper white card stock, mounted on a 1 1/4" purely pomegranate circle card stock then onto a pretty in pink scallop circle card stock. I punch little holes to the scallop circle piece with a 1/16" hand held punch. I then punched a flower from the Boho punch, stuck a brad through the flower and through the middle of all the pieces of the tag. Thread a silver cord through on of the holes on the scallop piece and tied the tag to the pretty in pink grosgrain ribbon.

Happy Stamping!

Another Kit Kat Holder

I made another Valentine Kit Kat holder. I just love this cute little holder. The accordion flower was made awhile ago. You can view the tutorial here on how to make the flower.

Have a great day and thanks for visiting!

Roses Card For a Friend

I made some of these cards for a friend's birthday coming up. Hope she like them. I used the A Rose Is a Rose stamp set I picked for winning the SU demo only contest. The background paper is the Bella Rose DSP. It goes really nicely with the stamp set. I used the Scallop Edge punch to do the scallop edges. I love this punch and uses a lot. I ordered a new punch called the Eyelet Border punch and can't wait for it to come. I will be using this punch a lot, too for sure.

Have a great day and thanks for stooping by!

With Sympathy

A very simple sympathy card. Something besides a Valentine cards. I randomly stamp the flower with the Live Your Dream stamp for the background. I punched the flower with Trio Flower punch in Very Vanilla cardstock and put brads in them. I stamped the sentiment and punched it out with a Key Hole punch. The scallop edges was punched out with a Scallop Edge punch. Can't you tell I love punches. I use punches on all of my projects. Punches are a great way to get your projects done in a jiffy and look nice too.

Altered Clipboard

First time altering a clipboard. It was so easy and fun. I need to make some for a Bridal Show coming this February. The the bride-to-be can use it to fill out a door prize form. I covered the clipboard with the Berry Bliss (retired) paper. Then, I stamped the "enjoy" in the middle of the clipboard. The little red flowers on the pink paper was a stamp from the Enjoy Every Moment stamp set.

Now I need to make a matching pen to go with it. Better get creating.

Thanks for stopping by and have a nice day!

Love You Much Heart Card

A simple Valentine card. I used the Love You Much stamp set from the Love You Much bundle back in January when it was 20% off. I stamped the big heart, cut it out and mounted on the Pretty In Pink cardstock. Next, I stamped the little hearts from the stamp set and punched them out with the Heart to heart punch. Then I adhered the little hearts to the card.

If you click on the photo for larger image, you'll see I used a marker to draw the polka dots around the "i love you" sentiment. It made the sentiment looked a lot better.

Lovey Dovey Shaker Card

This card was made using the new level 2 hostess set. All of SU stamps are die cut now so I saved the rubber and made a shaker card. I stamped the hearts from the Love You Much stamp set and punched them out with the Heart to Heart punch. I then put the hearts in inside the heart image and sealed it with a cello bag. Looks nice but doesn't shake too well. The hearts keeps on getting stuck to the sticky foam. Next time I'll use beads.

Here is a close up of the shaker card. You can see the hearts inside the shaker heart.

Valentine Card

I cased this card from Angie Juda. Very simple card. It measures 4 1/4" x 8 1/2" and scored at 3" and 6 1/4". You can put a treat or a gift card in it.

Happy stamping!

Here is the photo of the project I submitted for the SU! demo only contest back in December. I made a wreath using the Snow Flurries. Isn't pretty? It was easy to make. As a winner I got to pick three stamp sets at any price from the Idea Book and Catalogue. How cool is that? I love free stamps!
