Crazy about You Mother's Day card

i made this card for a make and take for my April demonstrator meeting.  It can easily be switched out for other occasions just by changing the sentiment.  I love how it turned out.  This card was inspired by a fellow demonstrator, unfortunately, I don't remember who.  The main colors are whisper white, basic black, lost lagoon and blackberry bliss.  My mother-in-law was very happy to be the recipient.

For this card I used one stamp set along with it's coordinating thinlet die which can be purchased either separately or in a bundle for a savings of 15%.  The stamp set is crazy about you.  The thinlet dies are called Hello You and have four sentiments.  I added some rhinestones to the center of the flowers for a little bit of sparkle.  

Something to be thankful for treat box card

Here are the Valentines I created for my co-workers.  I was inspired by Tina Weller's video where I picked up the directions for the basic card treat box design.  I made two different designs because I didn't think the guys would appreciate the pink colors of blushing bride and melon mambo.  Those colors are real red and very vanilla. For the pink card I used a Sale-a-bration stamp set called You Brighten My Day.  You can earn this set for FREE for every $50 you purchase, you can choose a free Sale-a-bration item between now and March 31, 2015.  Super awesome deal.  Check it out in my online store.  The inside of the card features a retired stamp set called Love You to the Moon and Vintage Vogue.  I masked off the Love on the main stamped image and then used my stamp-a-ma-jig to line up the friends from the Vintage Vogue set.  Cool huh?  An idea from something my husband said.

This card also features a retired stamp set called Like You a Latte.   The Be My Valentine and heart stamp is from the February Paper Pumpkin kit.  I love mixing the new with the old, don't you?  Washi tape is run along the bottom to create the border.

These card treat boxes feature a pull out drawer.  See the video on YouTube by Tina, the Serene Stamper.

Moon Lake bird frame

This frame was created using the Moon Lake stamp set, inks and Blendabilities.  I love how this set makes such a frameable piece of artwork.  The background was sponged using soft sky, marina mist and wild wasabi inks.  The sentiment and bird were stamped in momento tuxedo black ink on whisper white cardstock and colored with Blendabilities.  This was very fun to make as an inexpensive, yet nice hostess thank you gift.
