This is the theme for this month:

 You can interpret it however you'd like.  I interpreted this as:  I made a cute baby gift and these colors were in it.  BAM!

My friend had an adorable little girl named Penny Mae.  With a name like that, she needed a super cute blanket.  Right?  All you need is a little Moda fabric, some super cute Minky, and you're set!

The card.

You've seen me make something similar in another Fancy Friday post. 

 

This is the envelope.  Because... why not?  I know, right??!!  DROOL!

This is the tag for the box I put the quilt in.

   

This is how everything looked in the package.

Adorable, right??!!

I forgot to take a picture of the box with the lid on and the gorgeous burlap ribbon with my uber cute tag.  Just image though, it was amazing!

I loooooove designer paper.  Don't you?

I hoard it.

But when it retires I always wish I had used it.  So now I'm using it as my grab bag toppers.  Do you want a grab bag?  You can have one for free when you order at least $10 worth of product from my shop.  Easy as that.  Each bag is different but I like that I can use up my retired paper and scraps with other great stamps.

Simply cute, right?!

manly card | march fancy friday

Welcome to our (the 2013 Artisan Design Team) monthly blog hop!  Whether you're starting here or coming from Erica's page, I'm happy you're here.  In the comments section of my blog, you can participate in this theme by posting a link to your project using our same theme.  Then everyone can see what you've made too!  The one thing you can count on is that our projects will be fancy!

The theme for this month is MANLY.   You can interpret it however you'd like.

I'm excited to see what you create!

Did you miss me?  A lot has been going on in my personal life.  I had knee surgery, which I've needed to have for 6 years, and my husband had a drastic (amazing) job change.  I feel like my whole life has been turned upside down for the better.

At any rate, I'm BACK! 

I interpreted MANLY as anything I would give to any of the men in my life.  I discovered a few months ago that my father-in-law keeps all the cards I make him.  Awwww!  I didn't even know that he cared.  I assumed he tossed the cards with the rest of the wrapping paper.

My father-in-law isn't keen on sparkles so I thought foil would look great.

What I like to do is adhere a piece of foil TO a scrap piece of cardstock.

Then run it through your Big Shot with your embossing folder.

This way you can easily adhere your foil sheet to anything else

without ruining your new foil impression.

Add a little stitching and a woodcut and you're set!

A super easy card for any man in your life.

 

Stamps: Adventure Awaits
Ink: VersaMark
Paper: Basic Gray, Adventure Bound DSP, Typeset Specialty DSP
Accessories & Tools:  Essential Wooden Elements, Big Shot, Alphabet Press Embossing Folder, On Film Framelits, Heat Tool, Pool Party Embossing Powder, Glue Dots, SNAIL
Other:  Sewing Machine, Black Thread

tags tags tags | december fancy friday

Welcome to our (the 2013 Artisan Design Team) monthly blog hop!  Whether you're starting here or coming from Erica's page, I'm happy you're here.  In the comments section of my blog, you can participate in this theme by posting a link to your project using our same theme.  Then everyone can see what you've made too!  The one thing you can count on is that our projects will be fancy!

The theme for this month is TAGS TAGS TAGS.   You can interpret it however you'd like.

I'm excited to see what you create!

I interpreted TAGS TAGS TAGS as:

Glimmer.
Shiny.
Sparkly.
Silver.
Fancy.
Watercolor.
Christmas.

FUN!

                          FUN!

                              FUN!

Up close and personal... 

  

 

Cut out a Jumbo Sticky Round.

Cut strips of paper and lay them across your sticky round.

Dump your glitter all over your sticky round.

Press the glitter down with your fingers to make sure

it's nice and stuck.

Dump off excess glitter.

Wear glitter the entire day.

Month.

Year.

Eternity.

 

The only thing to remember while creating your own DSP is that the sticky round is STICKY!  Where your papers touch, they stay.  Be careful.

Love me some homemade DSP.
