Teacher Gift

Hello stampin' friends,

Thank you for stopping by! I have a teacher gift to share with you today.  I just love making them!  I brings me right back to basics with bright colours and the timeless chalkboard technique.  

My youngest had a super special teacher this year!  He was wonderful and really great for kids who love sports!  He showed my son how you can be good at sports and be smart too - don't stay in a stereo type.  And even through all of the distant learning that happened this year, my youngest has said this is the best teacher he has every had.

Global Design Project has a super fun sketch to follow along with this week and so I want to play along.  Here is their sketch...


Here is the card I made for Mr. B.!

I just love how it turned out.  I used the Harvest Hellos stampset and the Apple Builder Punch to create these apples in Daffodil Delight, Real Red and Granny Apple Green.  I used the same colour ink onto each colour of cardstock.  The little leaves were stamped in Old Olive onto Old Olive Cardstock. 

I used Versa-mark Ink, White Embossing Powder and my heat tool to add the sentiment and the squiggles up the side.  I also sponged the edge of the black card stock with White Craft Ink to create the chalkboard look.  

The tag I made for the gift bag created by using the Delightful Tag Topper Punch and the Banner Triple Punch.  I couldn't resist using the retired Large Letters Dies to make sure he knew it was for him.  LOL

One more apple at the bottom.  

What is inside?  This beautiful handmade mug by a local potter Leishman Pottery.  They make such beautiful handcrafted pottery.  

And some candies of course.  

Thank you for stopping by today!

Happy Stampin'

Happy New Year - Blog Hop

Happy New Year!  Welcome 2018!  

I am so excited to see what this year will bring.  Today, the first of the month, always brings a new blog hop with my Blogging Friends - I love the first of the month because I LOVE seeing what they create!  And, to help ring in the new year, we have a new look for our blog hop!  What do you think?

The theme this month is "Baby, It'scold Outside".  There couldn't be a better theme for us here in Ontario, Canada.  We have been having extreme cold weather alerts for most of the last week.  Like, I'm talking -38 celcius with the wind chill.  It has been a great time to get crafty inside, but who really needs a reason.

Here is a picture of what it looks like outside my front door..

 

So, the real reason you stopped by..here are the projects I made for the blog hop with this month's theme in mind. 

 
I created a card using the very popular Eclipse Technique as well as a matching gift bag with my Gift Bag Punch Board.  I love how cute they turned out to be!

 My card base is Night of Navy and the layter on top is a patterned DSP from the Coffee Break DSP pack from the Annual Catalogue.   I used the snowflakes from the Snowflake Sentiments stampset to stamp directly onto the patterned DSP usin the Night of Navy and Marina MIst Inks.  I also die cut some Whisper White Snowflakes from the Swirly Snowflakes Thinlits and added them to the front along with some glitter rhinestones for the center of the snowflakes. 

The gift bag was created using the same stamping and die cut snowflakes.  I used the Gift Bag Punch Board to create the bag.  I then used snowflake border die to create a bag topper.  I also created a little tag another great die from the Swirly Snowflake thinlits

 

I really love this bundle!  It was the first thing in the Holiday Catalogue that I knew I had to have!  I am so happy the products are being continued, but if you are a bargain shopper, you will want to get the bundle before January 3rd, the bundle price is not being carried over, just the products individually.  You can order the bundle to save 10% at my online store here.

Thanks for stopping by.  I would love to hear from you, go ahead and leave a comment.

Easter with Roger's Daytime TV!

Hey there my stampin' friends,

All ready for Easter?  Well, I am mostly there - lol.

But, I do have some Easter projects to show you to help get you into the hopping mood.  These are pictures from my visit to see my friends at Roger's Daytime TV in Barrie.  As always, I had a blast and for an extra surprise, I will be featured on 2 of their upcoming shows.  Yeah!

Here are my projects....

 This is a picture of my whole display.

 I created a show box with an Easter banner

 A card (using my current favourite DSP) with some treat bags decorated for Easter Fun.

 I created actual Easter baskets with space inside for treats or an Easter Egg.

 Some 3-D carrots full of Easter Goodies

 I made a belly band for a small box of Easter Chocolates

You can see 2 of the cards I made. We also made both live on air!

Another treat bag with a super cute tag!  I also stamped right onto the bottom of the bag - took a few minutes to dry, but turned out great!

 

And finally another picture of my whole display.  I had a lot of fun making this projects and was a real treat to share them with my friends in TV land.

Oh and how could I forget, I also got to meet a Harlem Glob Trotter!  Oh the joys of being a celebrity - lol!

Happy Easter everyone.

Valenties Day with Roger's TV Daytime!

Hi my Stampin' friends,

I am so excited to share with you the pictures of my Valentines projects and the display I had for my most recent visit to see my friends at Roger's TV show Daytime!  I just LOVE my time there and creating projects for their viewers and we even get to create some projects live on air!

Here are the pictures I took that day...The first are some of my whole display.

This next picture is of some home decor I created using my Sweet and Sassy Framelits.  Did you know that you get 15 different thinlits in that Sweet and Sassy framelits pack?  Awesome value!  I used an old shadow box and I created 4 different sized hearts using the more curvy heart in the package and cut them out of different patterned paper from the Sending Love DSP Stack.   I think this was my favourite project from this show.

Next is another home decor item I made.   This time with a regular picture frame and my Large Letters Framelits.  I used some Real Red Glitter paper to create the 'Xs and Os" as well as the tiny heart in the corner - so cute!

This picture includes some little valentines treats that I made.  Treat bags for my kids bus driver and a truffle heart with a decorated belly band.  There is also another Valentines Card in the corner. 

I also made a couple of different Window Boxes.  This is the one we made live on air!  I just love those little kissy lips. 

Here is another one I made for display - more hugs and kisses!

A close up of one of the cards with the other two photo bombing!  lol

Here is a close up of the truffle hearts with belly bands.  Each one was a little bit different.  I love just playing around. 

And last but not least a close up of the tags for the treat bags. I gave out some to the folks at Daytime for all of their hard work another is earmarked for my garbage man who help coral my dog when he got loose last week  - ugh, but that is another story!

However you like to spend Valentines Day, I hope you enjoy it.  

Happy Stampin'
