Cassie's Frozen party

My daughter turns ten this week. She wanted a Frozen - themed party, so I got to work. I created a few cute things for our guests at the ice arena.

The mood was set by lovely invites created by my friend Zeni.

I created these snowman kits and these cute goody bags for the older kids. Each one has a Hershey bar wrapped in a Frozen themed wrapper, gumballs, and chips ahoy. These are strictly for the teens. I used Lovebug Creations winter grunge on this little bag. Super cute.

Gift Card Holder

Hi Everyone!

It's Monday and another day for me to post a project using the amazing Lovebug Creations.  Today I used Kisses from the Simply Sheer collection on this cute gift card holder that I made for my sister in law. She is a special lady!

The paper base is Stampin Up.  The DSP is also Stampin Up. I used the Embossed Gift Card Holder die from My Creative Time.  I printed her name on the computer and cut it out using the oval punch.  I had the slider in my embellishment stash and knew she would love it.

Happy Monday!!

Happy birthday to Allison

Hi friends!

 Yesterday was my friend, Allison's, birthday.  She's a beautiful young woman who we always joke was switched at birth.  We are so much alike it's scary.  Well, I decided to make her a gift card holder for her Marshall's gift card.  There is no one more stylish than she is.  She truly is beautiful inside and out.

I used the beautiful I Love Grunge rumple ribbon from Lovebug Creations to decorate the front of this gift card holder.  It blended perfectly!
The cupcake is from Jaded Blossom and the paper is Recollections.
The base is Stampin Up Melon Mambo

Hi crafty friends!

Today the Lovebug Creations team celebrates a special birthday.  It's our Creative Team sister STEPHANIE's birthday.  I created this cute card using the new pastel rumple ribbon and Brown Mama's Mesh both from Lovebug Creations.  I sometimes like to iron the rumple ribbon and that's what I chose to do on this card.

Stephanie, I hope you have an amazing day!!!

Card base is Crumb Cake from Stampin Up
First layer is So Saffron from Stampin Up
Designer Paper is also Stampin Up
Cupcake is from My Creative Time

Used Martha Stewart Microbeads to add a little texture to the cupcake

Lovebug Creations - Lollipop Covers

Hi friends,

I wanted to make treats for friends who have helped me this week as I have been recovering, so I purchased some lollipops and made this lollipop cover using Envious rumple ribbon.  It has the same concept as a matchbox and it's suitable for a flat lollipop.  Enjoy!!

Rumple Ribbon is Envious from Lovebug Creations

The paper is DCWV.

The tag and sentiment is My Creative Time Chunky Jar Accessories set

Happy birthday Kimi

Today we celebrare a special birthday at lovebug creations. Kimi, our fearless leader, is a very special and kind wkman. I cannot tell you how blessed I am to know her and to call her my friend. 

I made her this elegant card using Lovebug Creations new peach color rumple ribbon. It matches perfectly with the calypso coral ink from Stampin up. 

Kimi, enjoy your day. We love you and are very honored to celebrate with you!!!

Happy Easter

I recently acquired some Jaded Blossom stamps and this little owl was one of the images.  Now, I am not the greatest coloring papercrafter, but I promise it looks cuter in person.  I used brown Mama's Mesh and Envious green rumple ribbon on this little card.  I also added stickles and crystal effects to the eyes to make them shiny.  The eggs are also covered in stickles.  I popped up the owl with SU Dimensionals.

My daughter will surely love it!  Please be sure to visit the Lovebug Creations Store to pick up your rumple ribbon and mama's mesh.  There are tons of amazing goodies to play with.

Sweet Thanks

It doesn't take a lot to say Thank You.  Today I made a small 3 x 3 card to say a sweet thanks.  I used one of the gorgeous new colors - Spring Lilac.  It is gorgeous!!!!  Please be sure to stop by the SHOP to pick up your new Spring collection.  I promise you, the ribbon colors are to die for.

I used several different items on this little card.  The stamp is Jaded Blossom.  I used stickles on the cupcake wrapper and cherry and Liquid Applique as the frosting...just to make it pop out some.  I used Pebbles chalk to chalk around the sentiment which I cut our using the large oval punch from Stampin Up.  The brad is also Stampin Up.  The paper is from my stash, but it's SU.  I sure hope you enjoyed this little card.  

Hip Hip Hooray!

Hip Hip Hooray!  Jaded is my color today!  This cute picture frame has been glammed up using some precious Jaded Rumple Ribbon.  Love how well the ribbon blends with the craft paint I used on the frame.

Please head over to Lovebug Creations to purchase your beautiful rumple ribbon!  I promise you won't want to leave the store!

Simply White rumple ribbon

Baby showers are always fun to plan. This month, I am helping out with a good friend/family member's baby shower in California. It's a Party in a Box. I used Simply White rumple ribbon from Lovebug Creations to close up these cute paper bags that will hold treats. 

The stamp is imaginisce. 

I used my Irock tool to adhere the tiny rhinestones. 

Paper bag is from CTMH.

My sisters and I love to throw parties and from time to time we have weddings to plan.  When I received these stamp sets, I immediately thought about candy favors, so I picked up some Ferrero Rochers and packaged them nicely using Stampin Up paper.   I used the Jaded Blossom Wedding Candies set together with my gorgeous Simply Red and Simply White rumple ribbon from Lovebug Creations. 

I also created these great table tent cards.  These can also be adhered to a solid background for a more traditional A-style tent card.  I used Lovebug Creations Rumple Ribbon in Olive You and Simply Blue (GORGEOUS) and also used the Jaded Blossom Wedding Wishes stamp set.  This is an unbelievable stamp set.  I loved working with it!
