Bon Voyage Box Card

Happy Sunday!

I hope your weekend has been great so far!!

Today I have a fun little nautical box card to show you that features some of that beautiful

 Lovebug Creations Rumple Ribbon!

A friend of mine is going on a cruise this year, so I thought this would be the perfect little card to send to her.

I found this box card by Lori Whitlock in the Silhouette Online Store (design id 57262). I added a little sentiment from the Springtime In Paris stamp set by My Creative Time and of course I had to add a Simply White Rumple Ribbon bow to finish it off. 

Simply White Rumple Ribbon is one of my favorites!

I think it gave my project the perfect finishing touch!

MCT--Thrifty Thursday

This is my second post for today, to see my Silhouette Challenges post, please scroll down one post or click HERE

Hi crafty friends & happy Thursday!

Today over at the My Creative Time blog, it is

Thrifty Thursday!

This is the day where we show you projects made with scraps, leftovers or recycled items.

I decided to make a card that I can send to someone just to say hello and to let them know that I am thinking about them. 

My entire card, except for the card base and bling, was made using only scraps! I love when I am able to use up some of my ever growing scrap pile!! I used one of the edges from the Fun Stitched Edges to create a edge to my long strip of patterned paper. I used the Stitched 3x4 Journal die to create the polka dot layer. I cut out some flowers and leaves from the Stitched Pretty Flowers & Leaves dies and attached them to the bottom corner of my card. The typewriter and greeting came from the Once Upon A Time stamp set and then I used the Typewriter Die to cut it out. I added a bow and also some some bling to the top corner as well as to my flower centers and voila! A pretty little card that hopefully puts a smile on someone's face when they receive it :)

I decided to make a little birthday gift bag.

For my gift bag, I used the 3D large bag with handles from the Silhouette Online Store and used the  Birthday Bear from Miss Kate's Cuttables to decorate the front. I decided to make my bear a little girl bu simply adding a little bow to her hair. I added a bit of rumple ribbon to the handle along with a birthday tag. Super quick and easy but still looks so cute!!

MCT: Made In Minutes

Happy Happy Monday!!!

I hope you all had a wonderful weekend!

Today over at the My Creative Time blog, it is

Made In Minutes!

This is the day where we create a project and try to keep it under 20 minutes. 

I know it sounds difficult but it actually sounds a lot harder than it actually is. 

Emma's products make it so easy!

For my project, I decided to make a little birthday card that will also hold a gift card. 

For my envelope, I used the Scallop Stitched Envelope die. I decorated the front of my envelope by using the banner and balloons from the Stitched Party Dies. I added some twine for the balloon strings. I also stamped the "Happy Birthday Sweetie" from the Celebrate Good Times set and layered that on top of the Stitched Curly Label Die and Curly Label Die and popped it up with some foam adhesive. For my card, I used the Stitched 3x4 Journal Die. I added a little gift card pocket to the card by using the Tag Gift Pocket Die. I stamped the "Happy Birthday To You!" from the Celebrate Good Times set onto the front of the gift card pocket and attached my ice cream cone, also from Celebrate Good Times. The ice cream cone was left over from a previous project. I try to always cut extras so I have them on hand in a pinch. 

Here is a picture of the back of the envelope, so you can see the closure:

Total time for my project, from start to finish, was under 19 minutes! 18 minutes and 29 seconds to be exact :)

Happy Sunday!

I hope your weekend has been great so far!!

Today I get to show you a fun little card that features some of that gorgeous

 Lovebug Creations Rumple Ribbon!

For my card, I used that cute little surfing bear from KaDoodle Bug Designs. I resized the surfboard so that I could make it appear as if he is holding it instead of riding it. 

I used some Simply Red Rumple Ribbon for the bow on my card.
