OSAT Blog Hoppers No Rules New Year


Happy Belated New Year!! Welcome to the 2016 One Stamp At A Time Blog Hop! Melissa's  creations always amazes me!! It really helps that our hop theme is "No Rules New Year"

If it is your first time touring our hop let me give you a little bit of background! One Stamp At A Time is group of over 3000 SUPER FABULOUS card making friends on Facebook. Well we decided to get a group of our Super Fabulous Members and create a blog hop for you to enjoy!

This year we have some AMAZINGLY talented people and I am so happy that they said YES! So be sure to to tour the WHOLE hop and show all my creative friends some love!

With absolutely NO RULES I really start to overthink things! I mean I am usually a shabby chic, barbwire and lace kind of girl! Well, this is anything but that! I'll give you the details below...





So I did things a little bit backwards this go round. I made my project first. Last year for my birthday I bought myself the Pillow Box Punch Board from We R Memory Keepers. I made this little cutie using a 6 x 6 sheet from the Go Wild DSP Stack! Seriously thinking to myself "Andrea?! Why haven't you used this sooner??" I then wrapped a 1 1/4" strip of of coordinating DSP as a band. I then took my 1" Stitched Satin Watermelon Wonder and ran in lengthwise to tie a cute little bow... No Joke 10 minutes on this cutie and I think they would make fab little favors.

Now of course the card HAD to coordinate! I am a matchy, matchy kind of girl. This card starts with a simple base of Basic Black card stock. For my next layer I used Watermelon Wonder card stock. Again, the DSP is from the Go Wild DSP stack. Of course I stuck with the animal print theme. I also took a 1 1/4" strip the width of the card. The Watermelon Wonder ribbon wraps around the card stock and the matte. I then used my tape runner and adhered this to the card base. I have really enjoyed our set Friendly Wishes which obviously my sentiment came from! My Versamark got to come out to play along with my White Stampin' Emboss powder and of course my Heat Tool! Once this was all done I took it to the Big Shot with my Chalk Talk Framelits. Now that this was cut out I adhered it to my card with Stampin' Dimensionals and what tag isn't complete without a bow?! So of course I used the 1" Watermelon Wonder one last time! The Sequins are a mix of Stampin' Up and Pretty Pink Posh Strawberry Burst and the Fine Tip Glue Pen is the best with these.... PHEW!!!!

I want to thank you so much for stopping by! Now for a trip down under to Bruno Bertucci! You can get there by clicking the button below! I am sure he is going to have a lovely creation!
