Sweet Treat Thursdays are all about food -- our other favorite topic -- and features ways to embellish/wrap/present something edible. CAUTION: May be hazardous to your waistline!


Hi everyone,

When I saw those darling little chocolate in the candy store, I had to buy them. I figured out I would make them some kind of home before giving them away...


here's their new home:



I love it, it's a very simple box 3½" X 3½" X 1/2" deep, but in order to see the ladybug, I punched some holes in the lid and then transformed them in flowers...


In order to keep them in place, I made some dividers. but I also could have use a simple glue dot (it always depends on how much time you have...)


Now I just need somebody to give it to !!!

Cardstock: Whisper White, Wild Wasabi, Daffodil Delight, Certainely Celery and Always Artichoke.
Punches: 1-3/8", 1-1/4" and 1" Circles, Fancy Flower and 2-step bird (wing for the leaf)

Whatever Challenge Wednesday --Sepia !!

 


Whatever Challenge Wednesdays features a challenge from the blogosphere, chosen randomly.

Hi everyone,

today we.re playing along with Annabelle bling sketch challenge 030 :



Here's what I came up with:



a very simple card tone on tone. I tried to acheive an old look by coloring the image only with Soft Suede classic ink. Once it was stamped in Soft Suede, I just took a damp paint brush an went over all the image, it blurs it a little and add a little old look that I love. I just added some ink to make the "ground", very, very easy and also very, very fast, try it at home.



Stamp Set: A Flower for all seasons, Trendy Tree (sentiment)

Inks: Soft Suede,

Cardstock: VEry Vanilla, Soft Suede, Elegant Soiree DSP

Punches: 2" circle, Scallop border, scallop circle

Other: Basic Pearls jewels, Stamp a ma jig, Stampin' Dimensionals, SNAIL Adhesive.


Have nice stampin' day !!

Quickie Mini Monday -- Color Coach

 

Quickie Mini Mondays feature a 10 minute-or-less project -- something fast, fun and easy to reproduce and mass produce.

Hi everyone,

I really love the new color coach, I like to keep it handy but it always seems to be either in the way because untill today, I didn't have any precise place to put it.

I challenge myself to solve this problem in less than 15 minutes and I did it!! Here's how



with a 9" X 4¾" of CS scored @ 1/ on the 4¾" side and @ 1", 4", 5"and 8" on the 9" side.



Just added a little patterned paper and die-cut letters and done.


to fix it near my workspace, I used velcro, as always, here's a tip to make it easy to position, put pieces directly on your project then put the other piec on your project as shown above, when you're ready to glue it in place, just peal the backing and stick in place. It never fails.


Wanna see where I did put mine? Very handy (but not in the way anymore) near my catty and my paper snips. Take a look:



Cardstock: Whisper White, Baja Breeze, Soft Suede, Basic Gray, Elegante Soirée DSP

Punches: Large scallop oval, large oval

Other: Big Shot, Decorative Strip Wingo Dingo Alphabet (Sizzix) , SNAIL Adhesive, 2-way glue, Sticky Strip, velcro(non SU)

 
Have nice stampin' day !!
