Buttercup Flower Sneak Peek

Here we go again! Another paper flower to learn and enjoy! These are soooooo easy to make and I'm soooo glad it came out so pretty. I always have my mom judge my paper flowers since she deals with the real thing. It's like second nature to her to just know what looks good in the garden or not. She gave me her thumbs up on this and here it is!!!

With my ongoing cake slice box projects, these make a new addition to the list of things to put on top of your cake.

Tutorials to this Buttercup Flower will be available in a few days. So check back in again this weekend!

Cake Collection Part 2

Another cake from KT!!! She out did herself again! She's soooo creative I can't help but do a dance :) This time she used the scallop circle punch on her flowers and used DSP instead of the cardstock. I love how the lines represent in this cake. Looks like a layers of icing and cake. YUM!!! Her candle just seals the project! Thanks again for sharing your cake slice take, KT! Visit her at KT Hom Designs

Cake and Ice Cream Workshop

Last weekend, I held a sweet workshop, hosted by Ivy and we had sooo much fun. First we made the Ice Cream Cone celebration card which involved so many techniques. In one card, we did the kissing technique with the "Sweet Scoops" stamp set #120078-clear. We did spritzing with the vanilla shimmer smooch sprtiz #118772. We tried the new Textured Impression Embossing Folder- Square Lattice #119976. WOW!!! A fun packed card!!! BTW, we added some dazzling diamond glitter onto the ice cream to put some frost effect on it. We were glad we did that!

Excuse my photo, my camera was acting up that day. It didn't do justice to our projects.



Here's Ivy and Jackie and our make and takes:

Mom's Card and Gift

Early morning on Sunday, I still didn't have my Mother's Day Card. Would you believe that? With so many Mother's Day cards I've made since the last month, I was not yet decided on "THE" Mother's day card for my mom. So, on the morning of, I just went with my instincts and came out with my color scheme. My mom loves the shades of aqua so I used the Bermuda Bay (retiring color). I will be sad to let it go. Continuing on to another color that signifies Mother's day, PINK! Doesn't it go for Mother's day? Anyway, it blended in. I made one of my roses then worked from there. Used my favorite "Lovely Letters Alphabet" to spell M.O.M. and added on some Sweet Pea Stitch Felt embellishments.



I had a nice gift that came along with the card and thought of making a box or a cover for it instead of getting a gift bag. It came out great. Just wrapped cardstock onto my gift in the shape of the gift I gave. Can you guess what it was?
Anyway, I added the Whisper White Eyelet border and the Pink ribbon to finish. I could have added texture to the Bermuda Bay cover and also added seams to the edge of the eyelets but I was running out of time..hehe. The stamped I used was from the "Oval All" stamp set with Bermuda Bay ink.



The most important thing, my mom loved them. The card and the gift cover. I hope you liked it too!
