TGIF 105 Party We are 2

FRIDAY!!!!!! The last Friday of April and they are forecasting Snow? We had thunderstorms most of the evening with tornado warnings south of here. Colorado, if you don't like the weather wait until tomorrow.

I can't explain how happy I am to be part of this design team. I can't believe we are turning two! To celebrate we are having a "Party Challenge" of sorts and we can't wait to see what you come up with!



Let me show you what I have come up with!!

I knew for this challenge that I didn't want to make a standard A2 type card. So I busted out my Envelope Punch Board to make this fun little Pocket/Gift Card Holder. Peakaboo Peach, Watermelon Wonder with accents of Pool Party seem to be just the right touch with the Tasty Treats DSP! You will notice that I have also used the fun Label Me Pretty bundle and a fun little shaker element. My fun Party Time sentiment is from the new Happy Birthday Gorgeous set available on June 1st!

Thank You so much for stopping by to celebrate! I can't wait to see what you create for this challenge!

My Birthday Bash Step Up

As promised, I am coming to you today with a great "Step it Up" idea! Last week I was running out of time for the OSAT Blog Hop and needed to come up with some thing cute and fast. So I busted out my Gift Card Envelope die and cut out this coordinating "treat holder" below. You can see the orignal post but clicking the photo below! Let me show you how I stepped it up first!

I untied the ribbon that I used to wrap around it and simply punched a hole into a 1/2" and 3/4" Circle Punches and looped the ribbon in! I added some Whisper White Bakers Twine in a cute little bow around the ribbon. I made a nice belly band using the coordinating DSP from Tasty Treats. A nice stitched circle stamped with Playful Backgrounds and the Cool Treats was layered onto a Dazzling Diamond Scallop Circle from the Layering Circles die set. Some cute little banners and a little bit of washi was just the right touch!

Adorable right? Thank you so much for stopping by to see how I stepped up my quick and easy project from Thursday!

OSAT March Birthday Bash Blog Hop

Phew! Can you believe that is already the second Thursday of the month?? This month needs to slow down just a tad so that I can everything done that I need to before we go to San Diego! Kids are on spring break next week. Little do they know that they will have a long list of chores to get done!



This month on the OSAT Blog Hop were hopping with a birthday theme. So many of us have birthdays this month including myself and Pam Staples it seemed so fitting! Lets get to my creations!

I made this card so easily using the Sweet Cupcake Bundle. I couldn't help but adhere it to a lovely stitched circle of the Tasty Treat DSP on top of a Scalloped Circle of Dazzling Diamonds Glimmer Paper. I adhered this with a few Stampin' Dimensionals onto the sprinkle pattern of the Tasty Treat DSP. I added a couple strips of the coordinating Washi Tape and simple Whisper White Bakers Twine.



Ok so my project is a little "simple" but time was not my friend yesterday and I didn't want to be a slacker but who knew that the gift card holder would make such a cute treat holder right? I whipped it up in less than 15 minutes with some Tasty Treat DSP and a cute Flirty Flamingo bow to coordinate with the card.



Thank you so much for stopping by! Don't forget our game night is tonight in the One Stamp At A Time  Facebook group! There is a good chance that one of tonight's questions could be about something on our hop! So make sure you tour the WHOLE thing! Are you ready to see Megan's creations?
