Just A Note . . . Mama Elephant

Welcome back to my blog!  I've been MIA for awhile due to some unforeseen life circumstances. I'm glad to be back though to share my ideas, thoughts, and creations with you.

Just A Note . . . stamp set by Mama Elephant . . . love this set!  I like to keep blank note cards on hand for no special occasion at all. In a pinch, I could put a sentiment inside for any occasion. I often though just like to send a note to someone who may need encouragement or just to let them know I'm thinking about them.

I had my husband in mind for this card which is why you see so many hearts. I punched out different sized hearts out of cardstock and then applied Glossy Accents to make them raised and shiny.

Just a simple, elegant, lovey dovey style note card.

Thanks for visiting my blog today and happy stamping!

Supplies:
Stamp Set - Just A Note Mama Elephant
Patterned Paper - Retired Stampin Up
Cardstock - Whisper White, Pool Party Stampin Up
Die: Die-namics Stitched Rectangle Scallop Frames My Favorite Things
Punches: Hearts Martha Stewart
Other: Glossy Accents

Halloween Test Tube Treats

Martha Stewart has got it going on! I adore her line of craft products. Have you seen the new punches out? OMG! That is another story.

My nephews are 3 & 6 and I always send them some goodies for Halloween. This year I collected for them Halloween tattoos, Halloween flashlights with different designs they can attach to the end to light in different shapes (ghost, bat, etc.), a shirt, and these test tube favors I decorated up for them. The test tube favors are from Martha Stewart and the possibilities with these are endless!!!! I decorated these with Halloween papers and cardstock stickers which I wrote their names on. I also added an "E" for Evan and "R" for Ryan to the top of each tube using a alphabet glitter sticker. I filled them with Halloween colored M&M's to match the patterned paper of course! Like Martha, we have to match everything. :)

I have a couple pictures to share with you this week from the weekend. We went to a Fall Festival at Peak & Peak Resort in Clymer, NY. My son had such a good time and I took some fun pictures I want to share with you.

I hope your week is going well! Feel free to drop me an e-mail with a picture of something you created. It may appear on my blog!!!!

Have a wonderful day and God bless!

Tiffany

Creepy Crawly, Oh My Golly!

Hello everyone!

TGIF in a big way!!!! I live for the weekend!!! Are you glad it's Friday?

So how do you like my Creepy Crawly card? It may be difficult to see in the photo, but the top black section is that glitter paper from Doodlebug. I love it! Then I took my glue pen and added Doodlbug black glitter to each hanging spider and a dot on each scallop of the Stampin' Up! scallop circle punch. The fence is so awesome. It's from the Martha Stewart collection. Gotta love Martha! The spooky looking black tree is from the new Stampin' Up! Mini Catalog, due out October 1st, and is called "Season of Friendship". I used it in my last post too. The spiders and "Creepy Crawly" is from Michaels clear dollar stamps bin. Aren't they cute? The stamp on the scallop circle is from the Stampin' Up! set "Batty for You" and is my -20% off special this month. Isn't it a cool Halloween card?

If you have any trouble ordering off my Stampin' Up! website, please e-mail me. Some have been experiencing difficulty. I can either give you a call and help walk you through it, or I can place the order for you. This is a new system for SU! so there may be some bumps along the way. Thank you for your patience and visiting my blog today.

More to come this weekend! Take care.
