A Dressy Little Favor

Today I've got a cute little party favor to share with you.  I have seen lots of great examples of these floating around.  I am finally getting around to trying one thanks to Fran Kennedy's tutorial.   It was easy peasy to make.  Here's my version.



I used Pretty in Pink CS embossed with the Lacy Brocade EF.  I added in some retired organza ribbon and some pearls to embellish the dress a bit.  I am going to put some chocolate miniatures in the center as a party favor.  These are super fun to make, so many ways this can be used!




I will be trying out some other designs to show you in the future and come up with some ideas for goodies to put inside.  Check out Fran's tutorial, just click on her name at the beginning of the post.
Thanks for stopping by!!

Oh, Whale for the Monday Lunchtime Sketch Challenge

It's Monday already and time for a new sketch from Technostamper.  Here is a picture of the sketch for this week.




I came up with a card really quick with this sketch.  I had Sunshine and Sprinkles DSP on my desk so I decided on a fun baby card using the DSP and Oh, Whale stamp set.



I just LOVE this card!!  The Sunshine and Sprinkles paper is so sweet!  I used Marina Mist for my base card with DSP layered on it.  The Whisper White is embossed with the Cloudy Day EF and the corners are rounded as in the sketch.



More DSP and a cute die cut whale follow along with the sketch.  I added in a greeting from Oh, Whale that was die cut with a Bitty Banners framelit. The final touch was die cut stars from the matching whale sizzlet.  I think the stars really make the card look finished.  I had so much fun this sketch!! I hope you will join in the fun too and hop over to Technostamper to link up a card you make using this week's sketch.  There are more great ideas from the other members of the design team listed below.

See It Again Saturday: A Mother's Day Card

It's Saturday, so time for a card re-make.  Today's card is a re-make of my boo-boo card from Sunday.  Here is the original card, you can see the entire blog post HERE.




I just loved how this card turned out, so I wanted to make a second card.  I wanted a little something different, so I changed up the accent color.  Take a look.




For the re-make card, I used Wisteria Wonder.  I added in punched flowers again plus a butterfly from Bloomin' Marvelous.  I love how the Wisteria Wonder compliments the Pear Pizzaz.  Thankfully we are keeping both colors for the new catalog!!
I hope you liked the little change up of color today.  Be sure to head back over here for more card samples, there is a great sketch coming up on Monday for the Monday Lunchtime Sketch Challenge at Technostamper.  See you then!
