Happy Easter Berry Basket

StampinUp Easter Berry basket designed by demo Beth McCullough. Please see more card and gift ideas at www.StampingMom.com #StampingMom

I love the Stampin’ Up! Berry Basket Die in the 2015 Occasions Catalog.  Here’s my first Easter Basket.  I made half the basket in Bermuda Bay cardstock and the other half using the Backgrounds DSP Brights Collection.  The sides of the basket are the same polka dots as the handle.  I didn’t use all DSP for the basket because the card stock is a heavier weight and I found using half cardstock and half DSP makes the basket both cute and sturdy.  I also have found so many uses for the Butterflies Thinlits Dies.  It’s no wonder Stampin’ Up! has sold out of these.  They are supposed to get more in stock soon.  The “happy easter” is stamped on a garden pick using the Handpicked Framelits Dies.  Hope you have a wonderful Easter!

Halloween Invite – Clearance Rack Deals!

Here is a picture of the invite for my sweet daughter’s Halloween party.  Her friends loved it, which made me very happy           photo 3 (9)

So, I bet you’re wondering why I would show this Halloween card in February?  Well, guess what?  The stamp set, Fall Fest, is on the clearance rack for $11.19 and the Fun Fall Framelits are also on the clearance rack for $17.49.  You know next October when you really want this set and framelits, it will be on ebay for a bizillion dollars.  The “Spooky Spooky” etc. is from Mingle All the Way.  Yep, it’s on the clearance rack also at $12.59.  This is a great time to get a sweet deal and be set for Halloween.

On the inside I used the Holiday Invitation set and the retired bat punch.

Paper Pumpkin is awesome!  We get a new kit in the mail every month, and Abby and I have a great time putting the cards or projects together.

Abby also made cute bat cookies, Reese’s spider treats and more.  I thought you might enjoy seeing them even though they aren’t stamped.

We also made treats for the teachers. The Fry Box gets a lot of use at my house.

Happy Valentine’s Day

Hope you had a wonderful Valentine’s Day!

Do you think my husband was thinking, “I hope I get a Stampin’ Up! Curvy Keepsake Box filled with Dove Dark Chocolate for Valentine’s Day!”  Well if that’s what he was thinking, he hit the jackpot today!

I made a special box just for him.  He’s also the only one who got a tag saying, ” You plus Me equals Love”  I’m sure that’s the part he liked the best.  My husband and I met when we were twelve and have been married for almost 29 years.  Come to think of it,  I feel like I hit the jackpot being married to Steve for 29 years.  Happy Valentine’s Day Honey!
