Valentine Sampler Frame

Hello & Happy Sunday!

Hope your weekend is going well.

Yesterday afternoon we went to the Rail Trail for a quick walk before the snow came.

We got home in the nick of time!

Got in the door and left the doggies out and it started to snow....it came down fast & furious!

After about 2 hours it changed to a mix then heavy rain overnight.

This morning it is still raining but not bad.

The gusty winds & cold temps from Canada are suppose to come around mid day and it will be a drastic temperature change for sure! 

Everything will flash freeze on contact and can cause power outages.

Let's keep those fingers crossed that none of that happens!

I did not sleep well last night.

I think my psoriasis knows a temperature change is coming.

I itched & scratched all night!

My butt is dragging this morning....I may need a nap later or a couple cups of coffee!

So, I have a cute project to share today!

I made this Friday afternoon.

I used a tray/frame that was in my closet for along time.

I picked it up at Hobby Lobby maybe 4-5 years ago so i'm not even sure they still sell these.

I lined each spot with different pieces of DSP from the All My Love DSP pack.

Then I started using the diecuts from the Be Mine Stitched Framelits.

The LOVE is diecut from the Large Letters Framelits using the Lovely Lipstick Foil Paper. 

It is a FREE item in the SaleABration catalog and is it ever pretty!

Lastly, I added some sentiments from the Forever Lovely & Meant to Be stamp sets.

Project Details:

Stamps: Meant to Be, Forever Lovely

Ink: Lovely Lipstick

Cardstock: Lovely Lipstick, Flirty Flamingo, Whisper White, Lovely Lipstick Foil Paper, All My Love DSP

Accessories: Tailored Tag Punch, Stitched Rectangle Framelits, Be Mine Stitched Framelits, Large Letter Framelits, Lovely Lipstick & Flirty Flamingo Ribbons, Glue Dots, Flirty Flamingo Enamel Hearts, Rhinestones, Dimensionals, Tombow Multipurpose Liquid Glue

It did not take too long to make this and I was SO happy with the outcome!

It will sit on my picture table in the living room where anyone that comes to visit will see it.

This is also a great item to display that shows off many new products!

Fourth of July

Hello & Happy Saturday!

Hope everyone had a wonderful July 4th holiday! My hubby had to work but he did grill at work for his guys and then once he came home we headed to my parents house for the evening. We watched the fireworks and headed back home since Shawn & Kelsey both had to work early this morning. 

My day yesterday was busy and I did not get around to updating my blog. My back hurt yesterday & this morning worse than it has in the last week. I'm hoping it's a sign that those nerves are dying off. So today I am going to take it easy and get my blog updated, shower and stamp a bit.

Sorry i'm late for sharing these July 4th goodies but better late than never, I guess!

Here we go!

First up is the Shadow Boxes that Vicki & I made while she was visiting last month. Took us quite a few days to finish these but they are sooo pretty in person! 

These are Cookies & Cream Hershey Kisses with the Chalk Talk Tags that were embossed with the Darice Star Embossing Folder. The flag is from Stampin Up in 2001  called God Bless America.

I thought these Patriotic Matchpacks would have been a good seller this year but I am lucky I sold 3. They have a fun size pack of M&M's inside.

M&M Sticks were a good seller! I love the colors of the M&M's!

These treats are my White Chocolate Snack Mix made with red, white & blue M&M's. Vicki & I made these while she was visiting last month. Making the tags were alot of work but oh so fun too!

I'm not going to put up a description of each project but if there is something you need to know please shoot me an email and i'll get back to you as soon as I can!

Hope you enjoyed seeing the July 4th goodies today. 

I'm not sure that I will make things for next years occasion as it was not a good selling holiday.

Well, that's all for me today!

Thanks for stopping by & have a wonderful day!
