Scrapbook Delight

I absolutely loved creating this scrapbook page with the new Blossom Builders Designer Printed Kit (#125410) in the 2012 Stampin' Up! Occasions Mini. I started with a blank page of Baja Breeze Cardstock (#111352) and stamped it with the Mixed Bunch Stamp Set (W#125535 or C#125537) using Baja Breeze Classic Stampin' Pad (#111833). I added the Twitterpated Designer Series Paper (#125406) and began layering the blossoms of various colors using Stampin' Dimensionals (#104430).

Placing the Stampin' Jewels Rhinestones (#119246) in the flower centers made the flowers sparkle and shine. Using the Lucky Limeade Stampin' Write Marker (#123002) I stamped the sentiment "Wonderful You" from the Loving Thoughts Stamp Set (W#125843 or C#125845) and clipped it onto the blossom with a Mini Library Clip (#109857) that was embellished with the Lucky Limeade Bakers Twine (#125572) tied in a bow. On the other flag, I wrote the girls names and ran it through the flower petals on the right.

The pennant flags were easy to create using the Petite Pennants Builder Punch (#122361) and bamboo skewers. Designer Buttons in Brights (#127714) were used as other flower centers and are FREE this month with our Sale-A-Bration event and your $50 purchase.

Enchanted Favor Box

This fantastic favor box was created using the Fancy Favor Box Die (#115965) for the Big Shot and the new Twitterpated DSP (#125406) featured in the SU! 2012 Occasions Mini. Utilizing the Textured Cardstock in Real Red (#121077)) along with the Twitterpated DSP allowed me to invert one box shape on the top of another (removing the box closure tabs on the top box) and move it slightly up to give the box more height.

The wonderful silhouette image was found in the Take it to Heart Stamp Set (W#125520 - C#125522). This was the perfect stamp to bring this fancy gift box to life. I used Real Red (#100052)and Basic Gray (#120966) Stampin' Write Markers to shade the image on the stamp and stamped it on Whisper White Cardstock (#100730). I then cut the image into a heart shape using the Heart Framelits (#125599) so it could then be layered onto the box with Stampin' Dimensionals (#104430).

As always, I used Sticky Strip (#104294) to create the box as I always want it to remain in 3D shape and not pop loose at the corners or seams. Creating a fun sentiment with Whisper White Cardstock (#100730)that I notched on each end I used the phrase " Forever & Always" from the Loving Thoughts Stamp Set (W#125843 - C#125845). For a finishing touch, I popped two quick holes in the top with my Crop-A-Dile (#108362)and closed the box with SU! 1/8" Real Red Tafetta Ribbon (#119251) tied in a bow.
