{ The All Things Love Technique Tuesday Blog Hop }

Hello!

Welcome to the All Things Love Technique Tuesday blog hop.

Technique Tuesday’s Stamping Techs are blog hopping again, and we are sharing love-themed projects this month.

Here is my card. I used Hears by Ali Edwards stamp set.

Love you 35300

I am using My Mind’s Eye patterned paper for my base and the banner. I stamped “love you” and the hearts with ColorBox Pigment Ink: Shabby Pink. I cut both of them out and adhered the hearts with 3D Foam Squares by Therm O Web.

The lace circle is cut using my new Silhouette Cameo and it’s from Lace Circles by Laina Lamb.

Be sure to check out the blogs of everyone taking part in today’s blog hop.

{ December Studio AE–Clean and Simple171 }

Just to let you know that I have January Studio AE in my little hands. I will have a sneak peek for you soon.
Here is a card I created with December Studio AE using sketch 171 from Clean and Simple. I don’t think that I am clean and simple, but I gave it a try. What do you think?

I used my left over Starbucks sleeve to cut out a heart. I inked it with Frost White Pigment Ink. The butterflies from the stamp set are stamped using Royal Blue Pigment Ink.The journaling base is This Is Life by Ali Edwards stamped with Toffee Fluid Chalk Ink.

I added 3D Foam Squares by Therm O Web to the heart and the stamped sentiment that I cut out.

{ Thank you - Mojo Monday 220 }

It’s been busy around here, but I do have several things to share with you this week.

Here is a card I created using Technique Tuesday stamps and Mojo Monday sketch 220. I need several thank you cards and I just love this new set called Fabulous by Ali Edwards.

Thank you 34611

The tag is stamped with Renaissance Remnants stamp set using Toffe ink. I had this die cut star that was left over from another project and I just loved the colors. The star is made out of fabric and die cut with Nestabilities die. The flower underneath is made from fabric, too.

I added a touch of green with a few dots and a butterfly using ColorBox Pigment Ink in Moss Green.

{ Upcycled corrugated embellishments }

Happy Sunday! I wanted to share my project I made for Clearsnap blog. It’s up a little early this month because we have a fun blog hop starting tomorrow.
I created embellishments using corrugated coffee sleeves from Starbucks.
Here is my layout.
Remember this Daniela Dobson Clearsnap Emboss Gloss Design Adhesives Smooch Glitz Christmas
I made the stars and the tree from the coffee sleeve. I used some of our brand new products: Emboss Gloss, Smooch Glitz: Firecracker and Mix'd Media Inx Embossing Powder: Jasmine.

I have step by step photos on the blog on how I created the embellishments and other little bits about the layout. I would love it if you would check it out and tell me what you think. Plus, we still have 12 Days of Giveaways going on. Check out the Clearsnap blog for all the details.
Are you ready for Christmas? It’s only 7 days away!!!
