Coffee anyone?

Hi friends. I used Mama's Mesh from Lovebug Creations to decorate these coffee cup gift card holders. I love how Mama's Mesh embellishes this project. I love this idea because so many friends love coffee and this is the best way I've found to give them a gift card.

Materials used:

Stampin Up calypso coral cardstock and ink

Sentiment - My Creative Time

The frame is Stampin Up from a Christmas Set and the punch. 

Chocolate Chip ink - Stampin Up

Housewarming Gift

Hi friends,

I'm bringing you a card I made for my nephew who is moving to a new apartment.  He just graduated University of Florida (GO GATORS) and he and his girlfriend have settled in Orlando as they both pursue careers at Disney.

Envelope

I used Wild Card and Create a Critter (fence).  Don't miss the hidden Mickey in the window.  

I really wanted a darker blue ribbon for this wreath for Gator colors, but I only had light blue.  I braided it.  It's tiny.

I used the Stampin Up slit punch to create the slot and used a glue dot to hold the card on top.

So Thankful

Hi everyone,

I recently had surgery and I was overwhelmed with the flowers and visitors I received.  I wanted to share the thank you cards I made.

I searched my favorite blogs and got inspiration from THIS post on Becky Roberts' blog.  I made several varieties of this card using different rumple ribbons and varying the cardstock.  The stamp set is Chalk Talk by Stampin Up.  I also used the Framelits that correspond with this set.

Cardstock: Crumb Cake - Stampin Up
Ribbon - LBC Simply Blue
Floss - Canvas - JoAnn's
Stickle heart - True Blue
White Ink - Papertrey Ink

Cardstock Colors: Coastal Cabana (SU), Lemon Tart (PTI) and Island Indigo (SU)
Rumple Ribbons - Ballet Slipper, Fresh & Fruity, Monster Skin
Heart - Calypso Coral (SU), Scrap Piece, Lucky Limeaid (SU)

Cardstock Colors: Crumb Cake (SU), Lemon Tart (PTI)
Rumple Ribbons - Simply Blue, Fresh & Fruity and Rosebud

Please visit the Lovebug Creations Store to pick up your rumple ribbon.
