Year of Flowers April Birthday treat box

 Today I have a small treat box I designed to fit Unreal Dark Chocolate Coconut mini bars.  Costco has them on sale for the next couple of weeks, so it was a good time to make a treat box for them and spread some kindness.  This set of flowers is perfectly sized for small boxes.  I love this little set because it makes it so easy to personalize your projects for the recipients.  I will be using this stamp set more in the upcoming weeks for sure.  It will be my go-to set for all my Mother's Day projects as I can add birth month flowers for kids and grandkids to them.  A home decor piece would also be a great gift.  I suggest you grab this bundle now, so you'll be set for all those important upcoming events.  If you would like to see how I've made my box, be sure to watch the video replay over on my YouTube channel.

Easy beautiful lighthouse birthday card

Hello everyone!  I'm back today with a card I made using the new Framed Scenes bundle Stampin' Up! released on Tuesday.  This is a great bundle for those who struggle to make masculine cards.  All five stamps are different scenes that you can use as is or color.  The coordinating frames dies take your scenes to another level and are designed to frame the artwork beautifully.  Don't overlook this one.  It really is a good bundle.  There are no sentiments included in the set, so grab one of the sentiments you have in your stash to make cards for any occasion.  If you would like to see how I put this card together, watch the video replay here on my YouTube channel.

It's a good day to celebrate birthday card

 The card I have for you today continues using those Sale a-bration free items Stampin' Up! offered through February 28.  I showed this card during a live tutorial on Thursday before SAB ended.  However, if you don't have that particular stamp set, you can use any small Happy Birthday, confetti or other sentiment you have in your stash and still make a card very similar.  The technique of making your own designer series paper is the main focus here.  The remaining images from this card are all still available in current stamp sets available in my online store.  You can watch the video replay over on my YouTube channel where I show you how to make your own paper and how to make your own banner piece to fit the die cut banner from Birthday Celebration dies.
