Are you ready for a touch of sweetness in your craft room that does not make a mess or have any calories?

Project Supplies

  • Basic White card
  • 2 1/4 x 5 1/2″ strip of Designer Series Paper
  • 1/2 x 5 1/2″ strip of Pretty Peacock CS embossed with the metallic plate
  • Pretty Peacock Ink
  • Sweetly Scripted Stamp Set

That is all for our Weekly Wednesday video for making a fast and easy birthday card in less than five minutes. Really the hardest part of this card is making sure your cardstock to be embossed is straight and does not shift in the Stampin’ Cut n Emboss machine. Once you have your faux ribbon pieces cut your future cards will be that much quicker! Happy Stamping!

Happy Monday everyone! I am so excited to share with you a sneak peek for a new bundle that will be coming in September in the Holiday Mini Catalog. Coming this fall, Winterly Tree Tops. I know you will have fun creating all year round with this adorable set of birds and greenery. Even though it will debut in the Holiday Mini, it is definitely a set that is great for all seasons.

Bubble Up Technique ~ Make It Monday #166

Today I am excited to share with you a technique I am calling Bubble Up! It is a fun technique that uses bubbles and re-inkers. There are several videos on the internet using dishwashing soap, water, and re-inkers. I just found it a bit easier to use already prepared bubble from the dollar store. I hope you enjoy this fun technique. It is certainly one you can do outside with your kids this summer.
