Peak-a-boo Box

These Peek-a-boo boxes are so fun to make! They are perfect for candy or other little gifts. The design comes from Qbee. The template can be found in this post. For this box, I started with a piece of 9 1/2" x 4 regal rose cardstock scored at 1", 3", 4", 6", 7", and 9" on the 9 1/2" side and 1" and 3" on the 4" side.

I trimmed away the sides and then punched a circle in the flap. I stamped the hearts from the Love You Much stamp set and then stamped the birds and added the small heart from the Heart to Heart Punch and layered it on some rose red punched out with the scallop punch. I used sticky strip on all four tabs and put the box together, then tied some rose red grosgrain around the box.

Here is the box opened. I got my Holiday Mini Catalog preorder this week and I'm working on some fun things to show you so stay tuned!

Scallop Envelope Purses

I saw these cute, cute, CUTE purses on my friend, Lynn's blog and had to go make them immediately the cuteness was so strong!  Check out her blog for great pictures on how to make this cute purse!  I decided to make some to give to friends.  I used the Candy Lane DSP and the Love You Much set.  I will definitely be making more of these!

Recipe:

Stamps:  Love You Much

Paper:  Candy Lane DSP, Riding Hood Red, Pink Pirouette, Regal Rose

Ink: Riding Hood Red

Accessories:  Scallop envelope die, scallop and circle punches

Valentine's Chocolate Treat Pull

This is the last project we made at my New Catalog Open House, a Chocolate Pull Treat.  The directions can be found here.  I used a 6x6 piece of cardstock instead of 6x7 so that I could get 4 pieces out of a 12x12 piece of cardstock.

Recipe:

Stamps: Love You Much

Paper: Candy Lane DSP, Riding Hood Red. Close to Cocoa, and Pink Pirouette 

Accessories: Scallop punch, scallop edge punch, heart to heart punch, striped grosgrain ribbon

Pocket Full of Love

I love making pocket cards!  Here is a simple one using the Love You Much Bundle.  I stamped cute love birds in the corner and punched out a heart to go between them.  I added some more hearts on the lip of the card as well.

Next week, I will be showing you some of the new goodies from the new catalog!  I can't wait to start playing with everything!

Valentine's Day Card

This is a card I made with the Love You Much Bundle.  I really like being able to pull the colors from the Designer Series Paper so I don't have to try to figure out what colors to put together.  I used pink pirouette, riding hood red, very vanilla, and close to cocoa as the colors for my card.  I added a pink pirouette felt flower with a brad, and some riding hood red ribbon.

Stay tuned for more Valentine's Day projects this week!

Valentine's Photo Holders

Here is a super quick and cute gift idea for Valentine's Day:  A Binder Clip Photo Holder!  I used the Candy Lane DSP, Love You Much stamp set, and Heart to Heart Punch from the Love You Much Bundle to create these fun photo holders.  I tied some riding hood red taffeta ribbon to the clips and inserted a photo of the kids.  These will be for the Grandmas!
