YOU, Rock My World! - Stamps and Smiles Project Tuesday CD Case

Baby, YOU, Rock my World!!!
I love this image from Hanna Stamps. She's totally cool, awesome, and grooovy baby!
She is my Rock Star and for this project; a CD case I wanted to make her a Rock and Roll star and my CD is the sound track for A Knight's Tale. Heather Ledger, was a bright star on the horizon and just as he was in the prime of his career, he passed. I love this movie and I've watched it about 5 times. Just recently, my hubs and I watched it once again. I think my favorite part in the movie is when William and Joslyn are dancing to David Bowie's Golden Years.
Anyway, on to the Stamps and Smiles Project Tuesday project; my CD case. The pattern papers are all from ki Memories Classic Prints paper pad. The flower is from American Crafts Details. Sentiment is computer generated. Image is colored with Stampin' Up! markers and Spicas. Everything from the tag to the image is popped up on foam adhesives. With the flap open.

SASPT - Be Mine MUGS....

Hi There! So happy you could drop in!
I have created so many Christmas/Winter Holiday cards that I am ready for a change. Now I STILL want to be creating so I've moved on to 2010 holidays. My card today is for the challenge over at Stamps And Smiles' blog Project Tuesday challenge. The challenge this week was to make a side step card. Now this is a FIRST for me! I used my Nesties hearts for this creation. I am hoping to get to use them a little more for this coming Valentine's. I also have various heart shaped punches. I used them as well as some white mulberry paper with little red hearts in it.
Now if you need a break from Christmas cards or just want to try a new technique give this little side step card a try. It's not really hard at all and it's quite fun to make!

On another note...

MUGS! This summer I purchased a used dining set. I LOVE IT! So finally I get to decorate my dining table!!! I have been holding on to a few items for years. But last night, while out looking at Christmas lights I asked my hibs to stop in at CVS pharmacy so we could look for some table decorations. We found these adorable latte/hot cocoa mugs at 2/$300. Now that's my kind of deal! You might notice there are only 7. Well, we had 8 but when I was putting them in the dishwasher for a little scrub, I notice the handle of one was cracked and chipped. So hubs, the wonderful man he is, is going to exchange it on his way home tonight. Now I am not a matchy-matchy person but we could not find (after visiting 3 different CVS pharmacies) all the same or 8 different designs. So I settled for 2 red snowflakes, 2 Tis da Season, and the rest are all different!

So what do you think???

Stamps and Smiles Project Tuesday Challenge - Gift bag

Hello:
Feeling much better today!
Here's my little gift bag I created for the Stamps and Smiles Project Tuesday Challenge. I started with the little cello bag from Keep in Touch kits. Then I grabbed a piece of Bazzill red weave texture cardstock and started stamping snowflakes and swirlies all over it in white ink which I heat embossed with clear powder. I used the negative end of my Spellbinders Borderabilities Lattice as my snowy topper. I also cut the pinked circle out of the largest and next to largest dies and used them to frame the window of my bag. My cello bag is empty so it looks way to big for my cardstock. But I think once I fill it with goodies it will fit perfectly. I added a wired cording for my closure and a chipboard holly leaf with a berry brad to embellish. I could have taken this a lot farther with embellies, but I liked the little Gingerbread man too much to over do.
The dimensions for my cardstock bag holder are : 1 piece of cardstock 12 inches long by 4.25 inches wide. Scor and fold at 5.5" and 6.5". Cut a coordinating piece of cardstock 1.5" by 4.25" and scor and fold in half (this is your topper).
