Cinnamon Hearts Wedding Favors

So, Here finally is my picture of my wedding favors! The colors for the wedding are red and white so cinnamon hearts fit in perfectly! I bought these white tins with a see-thru lid for a dollar a piece through an online favor outlet store and the added the top piece. For the top decoration I used a two inch scallop punch to make the red scallop backgrounds, then I used my fiskars circle cutter to cut out the cake image I printed out from Clipart. I then took my SU Purely Pomegranate ink and sponged around the outside of the circle before adhering it to the scallop circle. Because the clear part of the lids were a little sunk in I used pop dots to raise up the scallop a bit. Then I filled them with cinnamon hearts and they were done! I have many more projects to come so stay tuned to check them all out!

Have a great Day :)

Internets stink.... well, when they dont work :)

So, I havent had the internet for about two weeks!! Ive been missing all my daily blog checks and creative projects from everyone. Im still catching up on reading everything. Ive also been super busy with work, but Im hoping to get started on some crafts for the wedding. Stay Tuned and I promise to post something soon!!

What I've been up to -->

Sadly, I have nothing "crafty" to share with you today :( But, I do have some pictures! Since I have been completely taken over by wedding planning and scrapping has been put on the back burner, I thought I would share some wedding things with you. In the next few weeks I will be doing some crafty things for the wedding and will definitely share those with you! But, for now here is a picture of my dress and my Matron of Honor's dress.

Some of the things I will be making for the wedding are parts of the centerpieces, embellishing the favor tins and the place cards. I cant wait to get started on all of these things, but need to make a trip to my LSS first and pick up some supplies. I look forward to sharing the finished products with you soon :)

I love me a good pun :0)

As promised, here are the embellished images for the "Very Punny" SU set. I colored them all in with my BIC's and double matted them on some coordinating cardstock. Then I added a coordinating ribbon stapled on with colored staples and added a few dots around the corners. They are something I like to make often in different forms since they are easily available to be added to any card or used as a gift tag.

Well, the weekend is off to a very busy start and it is looking like I will not be stamping again until Monday. Enjoy your weekend and I will post again on Monday :)

Limited Supplies Fridays!

Today I did my first challenge over at split coast stampers. It was limited supplies Friday and the requirements were a coffee image and the color orange. Here is what I came up with:

The image is from Pun Fun by Stampin Up! and the papers are from DCWV and Making Memories. I also used Marvy ink around the edges in Copper Penny. The ribbon is scrap and the image is colored in using my Bic Markers.

Tomorrow I will be posting the embellishment squares I made using the Very Punny stamp set from Stampin Up!

Have a great night!

So, Ive decided that every Friday I would like to post a challenge where one of the requirements will be to use up your scraps! The challenge will be posted every Friday (or Thursday Night, lol), and then the links to all the cards made for the challenge will be posted on Monday! So, to enter all you need to do is comment on the Friday Challenge post (this post :)) and let me know that you have made a card for the weeks scrap challenge.

Oh yah, Heres my card for the challenge. I used this Charlie Horse stamp and sentiment along with some SCRAPS of DCWV glitter paper and Memory Makers Cardstock in Cranberry. I also used a scrap or ribbon left over from a ribbon swap.

M.I.A......me?

So, I know Ive been MIA lately, and I wanted to fill you in on what Ive been up to. I'm planning my wedding!! Ive been sooooo busy lately that I haven't scrapped in over a month. I did make some small tags the other night with a SU set and will post those pics as soon as I take them, lol. So, I thought I would share a card I made awhile back using the loads of love stamp set from SU!. Enjoy :)
