Valentine Card

Valenines day is just around the corner, I came across these ideas and thought they rocked. All supplies SU unless noted.

Base of card is pretty in pink, all the DSP is from the new SU mini is Sending Love. Other colours I used are real red, very vanilla, and chocolate chip.

I used both tag punches, and the 3 trio flower punch

The tutorial for the tag card can be found here , scroll down a bit)

Valentine Tic Tac Toe

I bought some of these metal tins from the SU! clearance rack, didn't know what to do with them so I looked on Splitcoaststampers. It's not an idea that I came up with, but thought that it rocked, making a tic tac toe board that can travel with you, someone also made up a matching game to, see end of post for these examples.

All supplies Stampin Up! unless noted.

The tic tac toe DSP is real red from a level 1 pack from a couple years ago, I used my Xyron to make it all sticky and adherred, then drew a grid.

The DSP used on the outside is from We R Memory Keepers and it's called "Darling", again adhered it to the tin with the Xyron, then sanded down the edges, put on a coat of Modge Podge

I used my Crop a dile to punch holes in the tin, and threaded through some real red grosgrain ribbon.

My game pieces are real red & regal rose, I used the new stamp set, i {Heart} Hearts, and the punch heart to heart, laminated them, and then glued on a piece of magnet. Of course I made a Spiderman one too

Feeling down??

Don''t think that I have mentioned that I have started selling my cards out of my Mum & niece's sub shop. Here is one I made today.

The only SU part of it is the image, and card stock, that's all the info...but I wrote down my measurements in case you wanted to make one too. It is a great way to show off paper you like.

The base is gable green 4.25 x 5.5

Tempting turquoise mat is 4 x 2

DP is 3.75 x 1.75

Rose red mat is 2 x 3

DP is 1.75 x 2.75

Black mat is 1.75 x 3

DP is 1.5 x 2.75

Desk box

I made these to put on a desk and fill with paper clips etc. Here is the link to the tutorial here

All supplies are SU unless noted

Card stock is old olive and not quite navy, DSP is Urban Garden, don't know where I got the chip board letters and then used aquamarine stickles.

My sister showed me this technique the other day and I love it, stamp your images with STAZON on GLOSSY paper, let dry, cover the entire paper with versamark, then sprinkle on Iradescent ice, heat using heat gun.
