Had a great day of crafting with my fellow Stampin' Up! Demonstrators

Hello,
I just spent some time with my fellow Stampin' Up! Demonstrators on Saturday and we shared some great ideas. These are the 7 projects we all made that day. It was a WONDERFUL day of FRIENDSHIP, FOOD, and FUN!!!
The first project is a Birthday treat box made from a 6 X 6 sheet of paper.

Here is a side view of the box that is tied closed with some Baker's Twine. There are Balloons punched with the Balloon Bouquet punch and the Myths & Magic Glimmer paper.

The second project uses a Striped Treat Bag and making it into a gusseted treat bag for Valentine's Day. We also used the Sure Do Love You stamp set, Lots of Love Box Framelits Dies, Gold Binder Clips, Gold Doilies, and Love Mini Tinsel Trim.

Here we used the new stamp set, Bubble Over and the Bottles & Bubbles Framelits Dies, Silver Doiles, Shimmer Ribbon pack, and Tutti-Frutti Adhesive-Backed Sequins. My favorite part were the silver "bottle caps" that were cut using the framelits.
SO CUTE!!

For this card, we used the Happy Wishes stamp set and Stampin' Write Markers to accent the stamped image. We also added the Petal Passion Embellishments.

This card uses the Party Panda, the Myths & Magic Glimmer paper, In Color Bitty Bows, and Smoky Slate and Pink Pirouette Stampin' Blends for the bottom shadow and the cheeks on the panda.

Using the Whisper White Narrow Note Cards and Envelopes, we embossed them with the Petal Pair Textured Embossing Folder and used sponge daubers to "color" them in. We stamped using the A Good Day stamp set, Baker's Twine, and the 1-3/8" and 1-1/8" scallop circle punches. We also punched a 2-1/4" circle punch to "line" the inside of the envelope.

We decorated a Silver Mini Gable Boxes with the Petal Passion Designer Series Paper, the Sure Do Love You stamp set, the Lots of Love Box Framelits Dies, and Basic Gray 3/8" Stitched Satin Ribbon.

Here is a side view of the box.

Thank you for checking in!

Brandon's Farewell Celebration!!!

Hello,

My friend Shelley's son Brandon just got a job in Seattle and I was asked to help with decorations. This is what I came up with. I bought a scrapbook page with the United States and added a little "extra" to personalize it for Shelley.

We went the funny route instead of the normal "Bon Voyage" and "Good Luck Brandon."
One sign says, "Bye Felicia!"

The other one said, "FINE. GO."
I also traced the states onto foam board and cut them out, punched out 2 hearts, and connected them with some twine.

I also had a lighted sign that you can choose from a selection of letters to make your own sign.

We also had a candy bar.

I made another gift for Brandon's friend's twin sons, I put a "B" for Brandon in Washington and "L" and "A" for Liam and Alec in California. They are 4 years old so I thought it would be a great geography lesson too.

This is what the table with all the decorations looked like. I also made a fold out card that had "Follow Your Dreams." It was made by connecting envelopes together and decorating one side. The station had blank cards for people to write their well wishes and the cards were then inserted into the envelopes for Brandon to read when he moves to Washington.

Here's the guest of honor in front of his banner! Good Luck Brandon and we wish you well in your new adventures!!

Thank you for checking in!
