Bigz XL Fancy Favor Box Organizer

Make an organizer from Stampin' Up!s new Bigz XL Fancy Favor Box die cut. I made this organizer with 8 of the fancy favor box die cut using SUs In Color Textured cardstock (p.155 $11.95). The flowers were cut using SUs Bigz XL Flower Folds die ( p. 201 $42.95) in Melon Mambo accented with the swiss dot texture folder and apricot patterned designer series paper. The small leaves were cut using a Sizzix die Little Leaves (p.196 $5.50 in Gable Green) and a Leaves #2 (p. 202 $15.95 in Old Olive). As you can see I have filled my organizer with supplies that will be used at my workshops. Not only is it useful, but it makes a lovely table centerpiece. I have to credit this idea to MeGa Stampin Studio. Isn't their idea the greatest? I did make my organizer larger and I fancied mine up just a little more. But that's what's great about sharing ideas...using your own creativity!

Diva Coffee Break Design Challenge #139


This is the first time I have entered the Diva Coffee Break Challenge. (Diva Coffee Break Designs Website). I thought the Stampin' Up! Urban Garden Designer Series Paper and the Asian Artistry Stamp Set went well together for this challenge. I used a little bit of Old Olive Ribbon Originals to add a bit of embellishment to the lower left corner. I colored all stamps with SU Writer Markers. The Curly Label punch was cut in half and attached to the sentiment.

Passion for Promarkers Challenge Week #11


Well I don't have Promarkers (Promarkers Website), but I do have Stampin' Up! Writer Markers which I used to color the rooster from SU's Rustic Rooster. Thought it went well with the Nouveau Chic Designer Series Paper from the new Idea Book and Catalog. Flowers were cut and embossed using the SU Embosslit Cherry Blossom. I used a touch of ribbon from Ribbon Originals. The Birthday sentiment is from Teeny Tiny Wishes stamp set from SU. The Brads I used for the flower centers are from Hodgepodge hardware.

Rubbernecker Stamps-Wacky Wednesday #23


This is my first entry for the Rubbernecker Stamps-Wacky Wednesday #23 Rubbernecker Wacky Wednesday is inspired by some of my favorite embossing folders and embosslits. The paper and ribbon is Stampin' Up Melon Mambo and Green Galore (Embosslit Sweetest Stem). The Cuttlebug die cut butterfly hovering above the Prima Marketing flower is on a hidden spiral and embossed with a Cuttlebug embossing folder. A little glitter gel pen adds some bling. The sentiment tag is cut from the SU Modern Label punch (trimmed) and stamped with StazOn.

Mojo Monday Week #98 Challenge

Stampin' Up!s Raspberry Tart Designer Series Paper provided the inspiration for this weeks Mojo Monday Week #98 Challenge (Mojo Monday Website). The solid color cardstock is the new SU Melon Mambo, as is the polka dot grosgrain ribbon. The Melon Mambo circle is embossed with two Stampin' Up! speciality embossing folders (Elegant Bouquet and Manhatten Flower); the center Manhatten Flower is embossed on vellum. Sentiment is from the Fresh Cuts stamp set, stamped in Whisper White and punch out with the Modern Label punch. A little bit of clear glitter gel pen was used to add a little sparkle.
