Happy Mother's Day with love!

Hi Trendy Fans!

I'm over at the Trendy Blog sharing a gift set I made for my Mom. This month the DT is showcasing a gorgeous color - Tickled Pink Trendy Twine. I've made a few projects with Tickled pink and you can see all of them below. Today I'm sharing a very simple card and gift box.

For the card, I started with some heavy white card stock and created a background with paint splatters and inked lines. 

 I found some feathers and tied them with Tickled Pink Trendy Twine and stamped a Mother's Day sentiment.

This year I wrapped up some pretty earrings that fit perfectly in this box and again tied it with Tickled Pink Trendy Twine. I added a tiny little tag and stamped it with love!

Here's a look at some other projects using the spotlight products

Die Cuttin Diva's - Garden challenge

Happy Tuesday!
It's time for another Die Cuttin Diva's Challenge! This week we have a garden challenge. Just simply create something you would find in a garden. I think this challenge is perfect for spring. I just planted a small vegetable and herb garden and wish I had the room for a flower garden. Unfortunately, only one side of our yard gets great sun so I end up using it all for my veggies. 
For my garden themed project I created a card full of flowers! 

 I used some gorgeous paper and machine stitched the background.

I added some die cut flowers from My Creative Time.

Look at these pretty cuts. I stamped it with a very appropriate sentiment and added some jute for a little more pizzazz.

Thank for stopping by and hope to see you join in the fun!

We're all movin' and shakin' over at CDD :) I'm sharing a fun shaker card using lost of CDD products! 

I started with the new Banner Dies and used two cuts for my base. I then cut a square and placed the oval die  in the center. I used some fun new sequins for the shakin :)

I also used the new stamp set Just Bugcause & Dies for the gorgeous butterfly and sentiment. This is such a GREAT set and I think you all agree because CDD sold out of these little cuties, but they'll be back in stock VERY soon.

I took advantage of these adorable little critters and made a sweet little note set.

I created a mini gift bag to hold the note cards. I used the oval die from the new banner dies set and stamped it with a sentiment from "Happy Thoughts" 

All the cards are 3x3 and the critters are from the "Just Bugcause" set and were stamped and colored with copic markers. I used the coordinating die that are AMAZING!! This set is so fun and can be used for so many occasions! I'm in LOVE!

My next project is a card using the "Happy Thoughts" stamp set! 

This set is so sweet, it really inspires you to use fun bright pretty colors! I found some gorgeous yellow paper for my background and stitched it with my sewing machine. I cut a kite and clouds for my little scene. I used the Just Bugcause Die and cut the flower and added a rhinestone to the center.

This sentiment is just GORGEOUS! I love the font!!

Trendy Twine - Treats for Mom.

Hi Trendy Fans!

I'm over at the Trendy Blog sharing a super sweet treat for MOM. Today I'm using a brand new product  - Mini Cups along with some gorgeous Tickled Pink Trendy Twine. Oh these cups are AWESOME! The decorating ideas are endless, but for today I made a little treat for mom.

I covered the bottom of the cup with some pretty pink and orange paper.

I added some pretty gems to give them some sparkle. 

I really wanted to decorate the top too. So I just die cut some circles and popped them on the top. Oh and I can't forget that I filled this cute little cup with mini chocolate chip cookies. YUUUM! They are the perfect size for a little treat.

Lastly, I added that GORGEOUS Tickled Pink Trendy Twine. Oh my gosh, you just have to add these to your must have list. I know every coffee lover would adore a little treat wrapped up in this little Mini Cup!

Stop by the boutique and have a look at these fun goodies!
