I kept my card super simple and love the way it turned out!! I used Reverse Confetti <a href="https://reverseconfetti.com/shop/all-apples/" target="_blank">All Apples</a> stamp set and its matching <a href="https://reverseconfetti.com/shop/all-apples-confetti-cuts/" target="_blank">die set</a> to stamp and cut my apple out! I absolutely love this set and you will definitely be seeing me use this on future teacher projects that I have planned!</div>

Hi friends! I'm happy to announce that I am back, lol!! I took a little break, probably a little longer than I wanted but I'm glad to be back in my craft room!!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Today I wanted to share a project that I made for <a href="http://www.simonsaysstampblog.com/wednesdaychallenge/simon-says-anything-but-a-card/" target="_blank">Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge</a>! The challenge is to create "Anything But A Card Challenge".</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Here is what I created!!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjSDDRfEV5YwGP7vAo9QYUQPvyJs9bzMkLV0qzxauu4LrTXWWbVqXy5WnIPuWnvL1NcbxQikNfgOJrv8XEIQRAzciI5sfwnl_1R-VgNeIeEOCOR9yfgsqRwt0D3dvaP1uFKjhMGMIjBDiW6/s1600/Blog+32.jpg" imageanchor="1"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjSDDRfEV5YwGP7vAo9QYUQPvyJs9bzMkLV0qzxauu4LrTXWWbVqXy5WnIPuWnvL1NcbxQikNfgOJrv8XEIQRAzciI5sfwnl_1R-VgNeIeEOCOR9yfgsqRwt0D3dvaP1uFKjhMGMIjBDiW6/s400/Blog+32.jpg" width="300" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I used my <a href="https://www.simonsaysstamp.com/product/We-R-Memory%20Keepers%20ENVELOPE%20PUNCH%20BOARD" target="_blank">We R Memory Keepers Envelope Punch Board</a> to create my boxes, perfect for a chocolate candy bar to go in. For my tag and embellishments I used <a href="https://www.simonsaysstamp.com/product/My-Favorite-Things-SO-MUCH-LOVE-Clear-Stamps-CS104-01Jmftcs104" target="_blank">MFT So Much Love</a> stamp set for the sentiment and <a href="https://www.simonsaysstamp.com/product/My-Favorite-Things-TAG-BUILDER-BLUEPRINTS-5-Die-Namics-MFT845-01JMFT845" target="_blank">MFT Tag Builder BP 5</a> for the tag and arrow. For my hearts, I took two different sizes from the <a href="https://www.simonsaysstamp.com/product?id=111675" target="_blank">Lawn Fawn Hearts Die</a> set and cut them out from 2 different shades of pink.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I really enjoyed making these and plan on making a few more for some teachers at my son's school!!</div>

Hi friends so happy that you have stopped by!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Today I am sharing a fun and simple birthday card. I used the <a href="http://jlopezdesigns.closetomyheart.com/retail/Product.aspx?ItemID=8545&ci=6308" target="_blank">CTMH Artistry Cartridge</a> and <a href="http://jlopezdesigns.closetomyheart.com/retail/Product.aspx?ItemID=9463" target="_blank">CTMH Birthday Sparkles</a> stamp set!!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Here is my card...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I took some white embossing paste and some <a href="http://jlopezdesigns.closetomyheart.com/retail/Product.aspx?ItemID=6851" target="_blank">Cashmere CTMH ink</a> to add some color to my paste. Using a dotted stencil I applied the paste to the base of my card to add a little texture.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I cut the ice cream cone image on pg.17 in the <a href="http://jlopezdesigns.closetomyheart.com/retail/Product.aspx?ItemID=8545&ci=6308" target="_blank">Artistry</a> handbook out of some watercolor paper and used some watercolors to paint my cone and ice cream. Once that dried, I used foam adhesive to add my cone to the card to help add more dimension.</div>

Happy Saturday friends! I hope your Memorial Weekend is off to a great start!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div>
Today I am stopping by to share a few cards that I made for <a href="http://www.honeybeestamps.com/design-team-call-final-week-reminder/" target="_blank">Honey Bee Stamps Design Team 2016 Entry</a>! I used the <a href="http://www.honeybeestamps.com/product/thanks/" target="_blank">"Thanks Simple Sentiments"</a> stamp set for my cards.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhfnxqB6kUpLnGPJkbmwWgC2OyqXly-WOHvIXPT8TDwE1PxXSaWrqCPgU0wes8gNnjyLYmS6dcQTuRYPcfb418pZDgGrGMiJDzyDQ9Yjjf216Ab9NZe5HvsWmyrAG6ItCmQNjEfysQfyiZ3/s1600/Blog+30.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhfnxqB6kUpLnGPJkbmwWgC2OyqXly-WOHvIXPT8TDwE1PxXSaWrqCPgU0wes8gNnjyLYmS6dcQTuRYPcfb418pZDgGrGMiJDzyDQ9Yjjf216Ab9NZe5HvsWmyrAG6ItCmQNjEfysQfyiZ3/s640/Blog+30.jpg" width="480" /></a></div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I took the beautiful butterfly from the stamp set and stamped it a few times with 3 different ink colors to create my background. I then took some vellum and heat embossed my sentiment. I kept this card very simple but love how it turned out.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I finished it off by adding some foam adhesive to my card base and my sentiment and scattered a few sequins on my card.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Before I let you go, I want to share a couple of cards that I made using this stamp set. You can find the original post <a href="http://jlopezdesigns.blogspot.com/2016/03/happy-monday-friends-wanted-to-share.html" target="_blank">HERE</a>.</div>

I then took the <a href="http://butterflyreflectionsink.3dcartstores.com/Die-namics-Stitched-Oval-Scallop-Frames_p_6947.html" target="_blank">MFT Stitched Oval Scallop Frames</a> and cut them out of some white cardstock and added the smallest oval straight to my card with glue and added some fun foam to my larger oval to add some nice dimension.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
I carefully stamped part of my sentiment to my card using the <a href="https://www.simonsaysstamp.com/product/Hero-Arts-STAMPtember-Exclusive-PRAYERS-Stamps-and-Dies-Set-SRHA15-SRHA15?currency=USD" target="_blank">SSS Prayers stamp set</a> and used the coordinating die (in which I cut 5 times to glue one on top of the other) to complete it.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Scattered a few clear sequins and called it quits! </div>

Well I hope you liked it, thanks so much for stopping by! Have a fabulous day!</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
I cut my frame out of some Canson Watercolor Paper using the <a href="http://butterflyreflectionsink.3dcartstores.com/Large-Stitched-Rectangle-Stackables-Lawn-Cuts_p_2356.html" target="_blank">Lawn Fawn Large Stitched Rectangle Die set</a> and took the 2 largest die to cut my inside panel and stamped my adorable rainbow image using some <a href="http://butterflyreflectionsink.3dcartstores.com/Versafine-Onyx-Black-Ink-Pad_p_3843.html" target="_blank">Versafine Onyx Black Ink</a>.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I used my <a href="http://butterflyreflectionsink.3dcartstores.com/Clean-Color-Real-Brush-Markers_p_4100.html" target="_blank">Zig Clean Color Real Brush Markers</a> to color in my image and some <a href="http://butterflyreflectionsink.3dcartstores.com/Distress-Ink-Pad-Tumbled-Glass_p_3942.html" target="_blank">Tim Holtz Tumble Glass Distress Ink</a> for my background. </div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I added some water using the <a href="http://butterflyreflectionsink.3dcartstores.com/Distress-Sprayer_p_6427.html" target="_blank">Tim Holtz Distress Sprayer</a> ( I love this thing) to add a little of a distress look to my background and rainbow. Finished off my card my cutting a few clouds, adding the phrase Hello, Friend from the same <a href="http://www.prettycutestamps.com/item_221/Rainbow.htm" target="_blank">stamp set</a>, some foam adhesive to my frame and a cloud and finally couldn't go without adding a few sequins from <a href="https://www.etsy.com/shop/TheCraftyPickle?section_id=16200357&ref=shopsection_leftnav_4" target="_blank">The Crafty Pickle</a>!</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
Here is my take on the challenge...</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I purchased this fun clear plastic tin from Hobby Lobby and stuffed a few chocolate goodies in there! I used the adorable <a href="http://www.prettycutestamps.com/item_103/Easter-Cuties.htm" target="_blank">Easter Cuties</a> stamp set for my bunny and sentiment! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I kept it super simple but I totally love the way it came out!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjg7lrsTVYvD-_wNvYYK_4Jsf-t1JTNTnDAh9m15Q5tkZ2nDUz3n6YjOEIjc4vA-A_vIwWl52lsSD2G0p8FFAQ6KMpL89SHrCCJZmALqN_Vff7u_zbZgNpbQSjBmZoAAMZEE3MwDi_qeX16/s1600/PCS+DT+26a.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjg7lrsTVYvD-_wNvYYK_4Jsf-t1JTNTnDAh9m15Q5tkZ2nDUz3n6YjOEIjc4vA-A_vIwWl52lsSD2G0p8FFAQ6KMpL89SHrCCJZmALqN_Vff7u_zbZgNpbQSjBmZoAAMZEE3MwDi_qeX16/s640/PCS+DT+26a.jpg" width="480" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I took a scallop and circle die for the top part of the tin and stamped another sentiment using the same stamp set to add a little something to the lid!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Happy Monday friends! </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Wanted to share a couple of thank you cards that I made this past weekend using the <a href="http://www.honeybeestamps.com/product/thanks/" target="_blank">Thanks Simple Sentiments</a> stamp set from <a href="http://www.honeybeestamps.com/" target="_blank">Honey Bee Stamps</a>!</div>

<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
Super easy and simple. I simply stamped the butterfly, using the same stamp set, onto some watercolor paper with some white embossing powder. After heat embossing it I took some distress ink and tried to create an ombre background.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I finished off the card by adding some pattern and glitter paper to the left side of my card and my sentiment. I absolutely LOVE the big bold "thank you" sentiment and all of the mini phrases that come in this set! There are SO MANY different types of thank you cards you can make with it!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Well that's all I had for you today, thank you so much for stopping by!</div>

Hi friends, thank you so much for stopping by this Saturday! Today I am sharing a super simply gift card holder using <a href="http://www.prettycutestamps.com/item_4/Wish-Big.htm">PCS Wish Big</a> stamp set! This project would also be great to make for the <a href="http://prettycutestampsblog.blogspot.com/p/monthly-challenge.html" target="_blank">"Ribbon Challenge"</a> that Pretty Cute Stamps is having. Click <a href="http://prettycutestampsblog.blogspot.com/p/monthly-challenge.html" target="_blank">HERE</a> for more details!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjz3wgNeBp5buC3V6_EA2_ip8YXw9VBb7asc-WNSC7AhSyss8z1MKEP9uRJZIrTTvypHRHOHiXf-5zXnp_ORNx0FMfvBK4uv81IIpVOBmY79wF2rDc8yFJZu22BVEK0SuLBnZ_rzPKwwYiE/s1600/PCS+DT+22.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjz3wgNeBp5buC3V6_EA2_ip8YXw9VBb7asc-WNSC7AhSyss8z1MKEP9uRJZIrTTvypHRHOHiXf-5zXnp_ORNx0FMfvBK4uv81IIpVOBmY79wF2rDc8yFJZu22BVEK0SuLBnZ_rzPKwwYiE/s640/PCS+DT+22.jpg" width="480" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I started out by cutting my gift card holder using <a href="http://thecraftypickle.ctmh.com/Retail/Product.aspx?ItemID=8548&ci=3420">CTMH Artiste Cartridge</a> out of some #110 Neenah Solar White card stock and cut some pattern paper to wrapped it around my gift card holder. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Taking a stitched circle die and some ink, I stamped the cake image from the <a href="http://www.prettycutestamps.com/item_4/Wish-Big.htm">Wish Big</a> stamp set onto it and took the phrase "It's your birthday" and stamped that on top.</div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiMNSGSuaUQ-ll7Kfl9LWX4Z1T0MTagGUlfQlbh_0pZvA-1zcPUDf4IaLYsNcXhAyhyphenhyphenfuTel-Q6hDPq2j7yBWMnieM3VSn-p9_Sla6HiknXW0g5DDD5NmlHa0C7ooV0MFjw1QAnpl5do7Rq/s1600/PCS+DT+22a.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiMNSGSuaUQ-ll7Kfl9LWX4Z1T0MTagGUlfQlbh_0pZvA-1zcPUDf4IaLYsNcXhAyhyphenhyphenfuTel-Q6hDPq2j7yBWMnieM3VSn-p9_Sla6HiknXW0g5DDD5NmlHa0C7ooV0MFjw1QAnpl5do7Rq/s640/PCS+DT+22a.jpg" width="488" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I also decided to decorate the inside with more pattern paper and another fabulous sentiment from the same stamp set! I finished off my gift card by adding some ribbon to help keep it closed!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Well that is all that I have for you today! Thank you so much for stopping by, I hope you have a fabulous day!</div>

Today, I am sharing a sneak peek of the Fitness Planner! Now I am not a planner girl but I truly LOVE this set, there are so many great images and so many ways that this stamp set can be used!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I stamped a few images with some VersaMark Ink and heat embossed it with some white embossing powder to create my background and took a couple of distress inks to create an ombre look. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I also took the adorable <a href="http://www.prettypapergraphics.com/item_834/Happy-Barbell-Cutting-Files.htm" target="_blank">Happy Barbell</a> cutting file (which is today's <a href="http://www.prettypapergraphics.com/item_834/Happy-Barbell-Cutting-Files.htm" target="_blank">FREEBIE</a>) to add a little more cuteness to the card. I like that I can use this card as a birthday card, a pick me up and even to support a friend along her journey for getting fit! There are so many options!!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Well that is all I that I have for you today! Thank you so much for stopping by!</div>

I used a stencil with some Spun Sugar Distress Ink to add a little detail behind my butterfly. I then used a butterfly die to cut out 2 butterflies out of some pattern paper and vellum and hand stitched it to my card with some black thread.</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

I decided to get a head start on some Valentine gifts for my son's class. The treat/pencil holder design is not mine, I came across <a href="http://www.kerryspapercrafts.com/" target="_blank">Kerry's Paper Crafts</a> and fell in love with this treat holder design, you can read her original post <a href="http://www.kerryspapercrafts.com/valentines-goodies-a-video-tutorial/" target="_blank">HERE</a>!<br />
<div>
<br /></div>
I found these pencils at Target and had to grab them. I love the the blue mixed in with the pinks and reds and since these will be from my son, they were PERFECT!<br />
<br />
I used <a href="http://www.prettycutestamps.com/item_112/Forest-Friends.htm" target="_blank">Forest Friends</a> to create my heart background. I simply placed my hearts on a clear block and stamped my image several times using <a href="https://www.simonsaysstamp.com/product.aspx?id=308112" target="_blank">SSS Caribbean Blue Ink</a>. I also took the heart image from <a href="http://www.prettycutestamps.com/item_166/Holiday-Planner.htm" target="_blank">Holiday Planner</a> to fill in a few empty spaces.<br />
<br />

I cut my heart using my Cricut and took the phrase "You've got the WRITE stuff" from <a href="http://www.prettycutestamps.com/item_20/The-Write-Stuff.htm" target="_blank">The Write Stuff </a>stamp set and stamped it with some <a href="http://thecraftypickle.ctmh.com/Retail/Product.aspx?ItemID=712&ci=647" target="_blank">CTMH Black Ink</a> and then I took the word Valentine's from the <a href="http://www.prettycutestamps.com/item_166/Holiday-Planner.htm" target="_blank">Holiday Planner</a> and carefully inked it with some <a href="https://www.simonsaysstamp.com/product.aspx?id=311179" target="_blank">SSS Hot Lips Ink</a> so that it would just read Valentine and stamped it to my heart to help finish my phrase!<br />

Happy Saturday friends, thank you so much for stopping by!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br />
<img height="400" src="https://scontent-dfw1-1.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-xap1/v/t1.0-9/1214_1104631876216070_510039543715645305_n.jpg?oh=f6e06fe098ece667af56dd97fd19b4c2&oe=570BC9E4" width="400" /><br />
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Today I would like to share a fun gift idea for those of you who are last minute like me...lol! I came across <a href="http://qbeesquest.blogspot.com/2013/09/hersheys-christmas-tree-tutorial-updated.html?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=Feed:+QbeesQuest+(Qbee%27s+Quest)" target="_blank">this tutorial</a> and absolutely feel in love with the project. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Here is my take...</div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjsbBTnnE2FM9TPiRewV6WcZxx0M3J9hZ3t880S4Ie9kKcyHq_GQ2SMI1lJeJJwM2nqKCT4zjLPnUtaJyH7Tw_9o9kx4zmed08x3uiEdJGFzAlUjdWQDzXa98la2ntHnQTE2QtJpx7JKsKI/s1600/PCS+DT+14.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjsbBTnnE2FM9TPiRewV6WcZxx0M3J9hZ3t880S4Ie9kKcyHq_GQ2SMI1lJeJJwM2nqKCT4zjLPnUtaJyH7Tw_9o9kx4zmed08x3uiEdJGFzAlUjdWQDzXa98la2ntHnQTE2QtJpx7JKsKI/s640/PCS+DT+14.jpg" width="480" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
This adorable box holds a gift card and some candy! I used Pretty Cute Stamps Gingerbread Kisses for my sentiment and my adorable image.</div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiRGpY0Cn5Znon28fTUTjqvkFO8gYGR-374E6SqcXBcLj545YRsCTCOa6z20zvBv7pbf-cabGN4BhUhjKS1FJZFPFHcxJWF_MSPn2L2HTV8GL4UAcpvx3ZG9Fco3uVj-Z7uS5UQFe6-d3QV/s1600/PCS+DT+14a.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiRGpY0Cn5Znon28fTUTjqvkFO8gYGR-374E6SqcXBcLj545YRsCTCOa6z20zvBv7pbf-cabGN4BhUhjKS1FJZFPFHcxJWF_MSPn2L2HTV8GL4UAcpvx3ZG9Fco3uVj-Z7uS5UQFe6-d3QV/s640/PCS+DT+14a.jpg" width="480" /></a></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
Now the box was made to hold 10 Hershey Nuggets, but at the last minute I placed Hershey Kisses inside because I thought it went PERFECT with my sentiment. So the next time I make this box I will need to make the box a little deeper. Still worked great and I love the way it came out but that would definitely be one change that I would need to make.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Well that is all I have for you today, have a fabulous weekend!</div>

Now let's get started! I decided to make a Christmas card for my hubby using the new stamps sets.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhBTca9TF3tgQHVIryuGpsjq_HO4PF4-M_wOx00uFy43RuS5boRaSKqQfojuH2qOrO_khsQEMzcl-Xjg-bL9qCZX8As_hWM0B2XWlFaem4feyCG6dueqENeTvjo0ho5_n5ycs4fR3ZkOVXc/s1600/PCS+DT+13.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhBTca9TF3tgQHVIryuGpsjq_HO4PF4-M_wOx00uFy43RuS5boRaSKqQfojuH2qOrO_khsQEMzcl-Xjg-bL9qCZX8As_hWM0B2XWlFaem4feyCG6dueqENeTvjo0ho5_n5ycs4fR3ZkOVXc/s640/PCS+DT+13.jpg" width="480" /></a></div>
<br />
I started out by using my Cricut to cut my little coffee cups using the<a href="http://www.prettycutestamps.com/item_200/Coffee-Faces-SVG-Outlines.htm" target="_blank"> PCS Coffee Faces SVG</a> Oulines. I then took <a href="http://www.prettycutestamps.com/item_197/Coffee-Faces.htm" target="_blank">PCS Coffee Faces</a> stamp set to stamp one of my images and as for the other one, since I mirrored it I stamped it onto some acetate and used a technique called "reverse image stamping". Now the outcome will not be perfect so I took a ZIG Millennium .05 pen to trace over the "stamped image". I also added the adorable faces using <a href="http://www.prettycutestamps.com/item_197/Coffee-Faces.htm" target="_blank">PCS Coffee Faces</a>!<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
(the pink cup is the reversed stamped image)</div>
<br />
After that, I simply used my <a href="http://butterflyreflectionsink.3dcartstores.com/Clean-Color-Real-Brush-Markers_p_4100.html" target="_blank">ZIG Clean Color Real Brush Markers</a> in colors, 026, 025, 036, 031, 091, 062, 065 to color in my images. I took my sentiment from the PCS Coffee Sentiments stamp set and stamped it to a separate piece of white card stock, layering to the top panel.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg5wPThVCpKv8g6HxZvWKSyYM1DXoPjPgRucyanen2FyJMqgUTQbRwpGbu_I0SBNr88UGqrAhAYgeUms4j0EpcOULtpEil1TTqL3x1cGz1mZD7-g-Pgl-EbveRzrl9FMW6WKbhHwrY4bFzM/s1600/PCS+DT+13b.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg5wPThVCpKv8g6HxZvWKSyYM1DXoPjPgRucyanen2FyJMqgUTQbRwpGbu_I0SBNr88UGqrAhAYgeUms4j0EpcOULtpEil1TTqL3x1cGz1mZD7-g-Pgl-EbveRzrl9FMW6WKbhHwrY4bFzM/s640/PCS+DT+13b.jpg" width="480" /></a></div>
<br />
<br />
I finished off my card by adding a mistletoe with some pearls, <a href="http://butterflyreflectionsink.3dcartstores.com/Wink-of-Stella-Brush-Tip-Marker-Clear_p_1642.html" target="_blank">Wink of Stella</a> to my cups and scattered some <a href="https://www.etsy.com/listing/231847077/rock-candy-relish-mix-sequins-perfect?ref=shop_home_active_1" target="_blank">TCP Rock Candy Relish</a> ( I absolutely LOVE the variety of sizes you get in this mix).<br />

Last Saturday, I shared a post about these tags, you can see that post <a href="http://prettycutestampsblog.blogspot.com/2015/11/christmas-tags-nativity-2-stamp-set.html" target="_blank">HERE</a>. I've had these cute little boxes in my stash for a while now and thought that these tags would look perfect with them. I just took my box and wrapped it with some white tulle and attached my tag to it. Super simple and such a great way to fancy up a simple box.<br />
<br />
Now for my next gift idea, I created a box from some card stock to hold any full size candy bar. I stuck a Snicker bar inside of mine, but really any candy bar will fit. I have an older post about how I made these treat boxes and if you are interested, you can see that <a href="http://jlopezdesigns.blogspot.com/2014/12/candy-bar-treat-holder.html" target="_blank">HERE</a>.<br />

<br />
I made a couple for Thanksgiving and some for Christmas. I used Pretty Cute Stamps <a href="http://www.prettycutestamps.com/item_170/Gingerbread-Kisses.htm" target="_blank">Gingerbread Kisses</a> and <a href="http://www.prettycutestamps.com/item_50/Turkey-Time.htm" target="_blank">Turkey Time</a> for my sentiments. These will make a really great, simple and fun gift to give to co-workers, friends, family, neighbors, etc.<br />

Today's card is a one that I made for my son. He is 5 and has been begging me for a dog and let me tell you, this is the closest that he will get to having one, lol (I'll let him have one when he gets older, just not now)! As you can see, I kept it SUPER simple. I used the <a href="http://www.prettycutestamps.com/item_192/Fur-Baby.htm" target="_blank">Fur Baby</a> stamp set for my sentiment and used my Cricut to cut out my card!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Can you believe I am done, this is probably one of the fastest and easiest card I have ever made! <span style="font-size: large;">Next up is </span><a href="http://www.stampingwiththedogs.blogspot.com/" style="font-size: x-large;" target="_blank">Janna</a><span style="font-size: large;">!!</span></div>

Here is a look at the stamp set I used on today's card! It is full of some cute sentiments and can be paired up with so many images and stamp sets! It's an adorable set to have!</div>
