Toadally Sweet!

Happy Thursday. These weeks are flying by. I cant believe February is just about here. 
 I recently downloaded the Lettering Delights Puddle Jumping file set. 

One of the many cute images is this little guy in a frog rain slicker. 
As soon asI saw him, I new I had to use the stamp from the 
Jaded Blossom  Pugs and Kisses stamp set. That Peachy Keen face is perfect for that round face. 

I finished the card off with some green sequins. 

Have a crafty day!

For the Captain of my Heart!

Happy Monday!!

With all the fun Valentines stuff out, how can you not get in the spirit.
Today I'm sharing a project I did for my design day over at Jaded Blossom.

This little treat box measures about 3.5x4.25. Just big enough to add a variety of goodies.

My pirate dude has been in my big stash of SVG files for quite some time. I really need to find a way to organize them to know what I have. It's kind of like digital photos, they hibernate in your computer rarely to be seen.
Perhaps that will be my goal project this year and get them organized so I know what I have and start using them. If anyone has any ideas of things you have seen or have tested, let me know!

Wow- got way off track!
With my box put together and my pirate pieced, I just needed a perfect sentiment. Well, I found that in the Pirate Booty Stamp set form Jaded Blossom. 

Complete list of supplies for this project:
Treat box file - Pretty Paper, Pretty Ribbons
Pirate - Lettering Delights
Peachy Keen Boy Mate face stamps

I wish you all a crafty day!

This hop is for all your scrappers out there that need inspiration on your page layouts, not to mention a quick and easy way to do so!  
24 hours long and ends PROMPTLY at 11:59 PM PST Saturday!

I always have at least one album in the works to scrap. So I love that Ann over at SVG Cutting files is making it easy for me to get those albums done by designing page layouts. All I need to do is cut the pieces and add my photos. 

One of the albums I have in the works is one from a cruise a few years ago. I am about half done. The Cruising Right Along page layout was a perfect fit for my next page in the album. 


The kit includes the die cuts, borders, photo frames and layered title.


I added a few fun sentiments and patterns to my banners using the following Jaded Blossom items....

IT is super cute for Christmas, but with a some pink paper, and a heart border under the roof line, I had a Love Shack!!
I embossed each roof piece and then used some white ink on the edges. 
The sine was made using the Fall Dies and then using the stamp from the Valentine Stamp set. I hung the sign over the door with a tiny heart brad and some twine.
Once my favorite Dove chocolates where inside, I tied the roof together with some white tule.

Jaded Blossom January Release Day 4 - Nuts and Bolts!


It's Thursday and day four of the January  Jaded Blossom release week and another peak at two stamp sets.

I have a Valentine's day card using a sentiment from the new We Go Together Like 2 stamp set.
I love these stamp sets because you can really build your own sentiments for your projects.

Well, I came across this fun little robot in the SVG Cutting Files store called Nuts and Bolts.
If you have some time, you should really browse the categories over there. 
There are some real hidden treasures like my robot gal here. 

I used some Valentine themed papers and then added my sentiment on the front made with the mini tag dies 2. I wanted it to be more than just a white tag so I used a few different tags from the die set to create my custom tag. 
Give it a try. Cut several tags and then start building til you get a new tag shape you like. 

Here is a look at both stamp set being featured by the Design Team today.

Cheesy Pick Ups 3

We Go Together Like 2
Be sure to stop by the Jaded Blossom blog to see what the other great projects the Design Team has to share with you. 

Have a crafty day!

Hi Everyone!  There is a new challenge at SVG Cutting Files, this month we want to see your best Valentine's projects. Just remember, the project just include something from SVG Cutting Files. Projects should be linked on the blog or Facebook Galleria Group by February 14. As always, there is a great prize up for grabs. 

I found this little Matchbox nugget holder in the SVG Cutting Files Store and thought it would be a cute little Valentine's treat. 
To embellish by box, I am using a brand new file in the  store now...this Roaring Lion. Isn't he cute with that heart shape mane?
I tied up the box with some white tulle and added a little tag using the Jaded Blossom Mini Tag Dies 2 and the Foxy Stamp set.

I hope you'll join us for this holiday challenge. 

Have a crafty day!!

Jaded Blossom January Release week Day 2 - Quakers for you!

Welcome to day two of the Jaded Blossom January Release week!

We are keeping the fun going with two more stamp sets to reveal today. Both are perfect for the upcoming Valentine's Day holiday. 

For my project, I am using a sentiment from the 
Pugs & Kisses stamp set. 

This treat holder is a short box with a flap that comes up over the back to keep a bag of candies nestled in nicely behind my duck.

Speaking of that cute duck, this new file is available in the SVG Cutting Files store here. 

This photo shows you better how the treat bag sits in the narrow box with the duck floating in front. 

My treat box was inspired by a Silhouette Tutorial here which I modified for my little duck.

Here's a look at the complete set of stamps and dies showcased today.

Jaded Blossom February Release Day 1- Sweet Thanks


Welcome to day one of the Jaded Blossom January Release week!

Hope you are ready for some super cute and fun stamps and yes, a new die!
The first stamp set to be revealed this week is the Lollipops Galore stamp set. It coordinates nicely with this months die, the Lollipop Die

I used the new die to make a thank you treat. 
I started by cutting the base with die. I then made a mat using the Card Mat dies.
Next, I added this adorable little girl from the SVG Cutting Files Thoughts of You file set.
This set comes with a boy and a girl, so a two for one deal.

I added my own PKS face with some freckles and some ribbons on those pigtails.

On the inside I attached a small bag of chocolate candies. 


Here's a look at the complete stamp sets and die showcased today.

Forever Friends!

Hey there! The holidays are now over and time to look to the next holiday when it comes to card making. 

Today is my design day over at SVG Cutting Files and we all week we have been sharing new Valentine files that you can pick up in the store today!

For my card today, I am using the new elephant file.

Aren't they too cute!
They sit perfectly on the Arched Top card base. 

The sentiment is from My Creative Time which I stamp onto a label I did with a punch I have in my drawer. 
Be sure to check out all the other new designs available now in the SVG Cutting Files store.

Snowman Kisses

Happy Monday!!
If you saw my post yesterday, you will see I have a theme going this week...kisses!!
Yesterday we had penguin kisses, today I have a project called snowman kisses. 

It's my day over at the Jaded Blossom Blog to share a project with you. 



It's a little treat box filled with candies.
I just love the Goody Bag die for little treats like this.

The poem, from the Snowman Poop stamp set, is adorable and perfect for my little treat holder today.
I used the Candy wrap dies as my base for the poem. 

I also did a some paper piecing on the snowman, from the Winter Wishes stamp set. If you have not heard of this, it's simply stamping parts of the stamp on paper, cutting it out and gluing it to the same stamped image. In the case of my snowman, I pieced, the scarf, mittens, patches and heart. 
This gives me the option to use pattern papers for these parts vs coloring with markers. 

Now my little treat is ready for giving.

I wish you all a crafty day!
