Creation Station Girl Power Blog Hop

Happy Sunday! Can you believe we are already in November?? I can not! The family and I loaded up and went to Sterling yesterday. It is about a 90 mile drive and it was time for us to make a Walmart run. We met up with some friends for lunch before filling two carts. Stocked up on things on I knew were less expensive. I don't miss Walmart but yesterday was a much needed day away.


This month the Creation Station team is designing with the theme "Girl Power". My time management skills have not been great between getting ready for OnStage and a craft fair the week before. After getting home from Walmart, getting everything put away and making a meal for a friend who just got home from the hospital, I wasn't sure if I could come up with anything... So my design today is simple yet chic!


We all know that I can't get enough of feathers! I chose the sheet of Designer Series Paper from the Bird Ballad Designer Series Paper. I chose to make a nice little purse (What girl doesn't love a good purse) and a nice and easy card. 

The card started with a base of Petal Pink with an earthy mat of Soft Suede that was perfect for the feather pattern. I have stamped the sentiment "You've Got This, Girl" in Coastal Cabana for a bit of a pop. It is die cut with the Stitched Nested Label Dies and accented with some fussy cut feathers towards the bottom. A nice double strand Linen Thread bow was just the right touch.

The cute little purse is made from a 6 x 6 of DSP. The closure is made with piece of Petal Pink card stock and a bronze colored Designer Element. The handles are made with Soft Suede card stock to coordinate perfectly with card! You can fill this cute little purse with a small gift or treat!

OSAT Birthday Bash Blog Hop


Happy Thursday!! This is the 3rd post I have done in 24 hours!! HOLY MOLY!!!! We are back again with the OSAT Blog Hop!! This month our theme is a Birthday Bash! Did you come by way of Dena Rekow? If so and welcome!

After having not one but two shaker card posts yesterday you can imagine that my goal was to NOT do a shaker card! When brainstorming for this month I could have either been really predictable or surprise myself. Well guess what... it was the latter of the two! When was the last time you have seen me A. Sponge and B. Emboss Resist?! Um Never!!!!!!!! I am going to warn you there are 4 pictures but it is because I wanted to be sure you got see all the lovely details!!!



Okay so my color combo happened by happenstance! It absolutely oozes femininity. So I had started sponging with Flirty Flamingo ink onto the Irresistibly Floral Specialty DSP! You can ink this great paper up with what ever colors you choose. As I stated before I started with the Flirty Flamingo, then moved to Peekaboo Peach. I knew I wanted to transition to a yellow or gold to finish! I chose Delightful Dijon. I wasn't sure it was a good decision but the end product was pretty fabulous! After finishing the sponging I wrapped the 3/8 inch Ruched Flirty Flamingo ribbon around the floral resist paper. I adhered this to a matte of Flirty Flamingo and set it aside. I wanted a sweet little birthday sentiment... Birthday Blooms had the sweetest little sentiment for this card! I stamped it in Flirty Flamingo ink onto Whisper White then adhered it to a Peekaboo Peach matte! My big loopy bow and pearl embellishments were just what I needed to finish this card off!
What girl does not like a purse for her birthday?! I made this great little hand bag complete with a cute little note book and Gold Glitter pen! I really didn't have any DSP to fit the purse or go with the colors. I inked up my Paisley & Posies set with Versamark and heat embossed it with clear embossing powder! I then began sponging using the Flirty Flaming and Peekaboo Peach inks! The great tag on my handbag is from the Here's To Cheers bundle available in the Stampin' Up! Holiday Catalog!


Here is a few more pictures of the purse!! This tag bundle really is to die for!!



Here is the great little note book that goes in the paper purse!
