3D Thursday Is Here With A Beautiful Fall Banner

Hello and welcome to 3D Thursday!  This week we have a beautiful home decor piece created by the talented Debbie Henderson from Debbie's Designs.  It's beginning to look a bit like Fall which is my favorite time of year.  Debbie has created a stunning Fall Banner.  Further down in the post you will find a link to the FREE Project sheet that has directions and pictures so you can recreate one of these beautiful banners for yourself.

And here is Debbie's project.

Isn't it gorgeous!  I love the color scheme that Debbie chose for her banner.  Let's take a closer look...

 The checked background on the green panel is from our NEW Buffalo Check Background stamp.  (Which everyone needs!)  Sooo many possibilities with that stamp!  

The leaves were stamped using the NEW stamp set Falling For Leaves and diecut with matching dies, Detailed Leaves.

 The Gold Library Clips hold the banner in place which is stung together with our NEW Braided Linen Trim and the Doilies shapes from the NEW dies Detailed Baubles Thinlets.

 The letters were cut out using the Large Letter Framelits which are a must have for any crafter.

Here's a picture of the close together.  So pretty 

and one last look at Debbie's Fall Banner.

If you are ready to make one of these beautiful Fall Banners then you will find the FREE printable directions below.  Happy Crafting!

My Inky Friends 2018 Holiday Catalog Showcase Blog Hop

Good morning!  Welcome to My Inky Friends 2018 Holiday Catalog Showcase Blog Hop featuring stamp sets from the new Holiday Catalog.  There are eleven stops on the hop so we hope you will take the time to stop at each one to see all the crafty projects we have created for your viewing pleasure.  If you have been following the hop in order then you have just arrived from Mary Haugens Blog - Center Stage Stamping where she showcased the stamp set Wishing You Well.  If you would like to view her projects again you can click on the previous button at the end of the post to take you back there.  The stamp set I am choosing to showcase is called Dashing Deer and it's matching Thinlits Detailed Deer Dies.

I created a 12' x 12' scrap page with a matching card.  Last weekend I attended a scrapbooking retreat and am still kinda on a scrap page kick.

   Here's a closeup of the card.  Mossy Meadow, Cherry Cobbler and Crumb Cake were my cardstock choices.  I used one of the smaller deer from the stamp set and dies and added a sweet little flower from the dies as well.  The Designer Series Paper I chose was Festive Farmhouse and I think it tones down the stamp set a bit to make it more countryish. (If that's a word.)

I sponged around all the piece of cardstock and Designer Series Paper to give it a little more depth.  I used one of the bigger deer for my scrap page and added a couple of the little filigree flowery pieces to the top corners.

 The word Christmas was stamped in Mossy Meadow and was from the stamp set Outlined Alphabet.  I hope you have enjoyed my projects and now it's time to hop over to Michelle Roberts Blog - Paper Conversation and see what she has created using the stamp set Beautiful Blizzard.  Click on the Next Blog Button below to hop.  

Thanks for stopping by and have a crafty day!

3D Thursday - Hello Watering Can

Hello and welcome to this week's FREE 3D Thursday Project.  This week's adorable project is brought to you by Debbie Henderson from over at Debbie's Designs.  Debbie has created the cutest 3D Watering Can.  Love, Love, Love it!  Please follow the post to the end where you will find a link to the FREE printable directions!  WOHOO!

I am in LOVE with this project.  Oops I think I already said that.  The colors that Debbie chose for this project are such happy, fun colors.  It just makes you smile to look at it.  Doesn't it?  Wouldn't this make a great gift or maybe a fun little decoration for your home.

Here's a look from the top, down so you can kinda see inside.  The leaf shapes are all stamps from the Rooted in Nature stamp set and were cut out with the matching Framelits.  So if you order them together as a bundle you will save 10%.

The pretty "hello" tag is a stamp from Accented Blooms and coordinates with the Tailored Tag Punch, so you can punch it out instead of cutting.  Yeah!

The handle is held in place with some of our new Metallics Brads and the sparkly dots are Iridescent Sequins...

Here is one last look at the project.  I think Debbie picked the perfect color for this Watering Can, Melon Mango, one of our new colors.  Are you ready to make one of your own and get crafty!

Here you go!

Stampin Friends March Blog Hop - Easter

Welcome to the Stampin Friends Easter Blog Hop.  Don't forget to hop all the way through so you can see everyone's wonderful creations!  

This month we have two amazing guest hoppers, so be sure and check them and their blogs out.

Mandy Reedyk

Sue Vine

Let's get started with my projects...

I actually made the little 3D basket first and then the card, but we will start with the card first.

 I wanted my card for the hop to look like an Easter Basket so I sketched out what I wanted it to look like.  After doing that starting with Crumb Cake cardstock I used our Oval Framelits for the handle, and then added some length to the sides.  I then embossed the basket itself using the Festive Emboss folder.  I then used the Sweet Sugarplum Stampin Write marker to add some color to the streamers on the basket.  I layered 2 strips to the top and bottom of the basket for depth and then sponged all over with Crumb Cake Ink.  I added colorful eggs I had cut out again using the Oval framelits.  

The little basket was made using the Basket Builder Framelit dies.

To make the basket 3D  I cut out 2 of the baskets and then connected them together with a piece of cardstock making it a real little basket.  I then sponged all over with Crumb Cake ink.  I used Sweet Sugarplum for the accent colors.  I am so glad you stopped by and now it's time to continue on the hop.  Thanks for looking and have a great day!

Stampin Friends February Blog Hop - Black, White and Whatever You Like

Welcome to the Stampin Friends Blog Hop!  This months theme is Black, White and Whatever You Like.  If you are following along the Hop in order then you have just arrived from Steph Jandrow's  Blog.  What beautiful creations, wouldn't you agree?  

Don't forget to click the next button at the bottom to continue on the Hop with Melissa Thomas' Blog.
This month we have three awesome guest hoppers.
1.  Bibianna Cameron
2.  Maria Willis
3.  Lana Stabb
So let's jump right in and see what I have for you!

I love Black and White.  It seems always to look very elegant even if the projects are simple they still are beautiful.  I chose not to add an accent color for my projects. 

When I think of using Black and White weddings seem to come to mind more than anything.  So I created a wedding card.  Products I used for my card: Lovely Lace Embossing Folder, Banner Punch, Circle Thinlets, Detailed Dragon Fly Thinlet Dies (Occasions Mini),  Layering Circle Dies, Dimensionals, Rose Wonder stamp set for the saying, Cardstock - Basic Black & Whisper White, Ink - Archival Basic Black, and although you can not see it I used the (clear) Wink of Stella on the Dragonflies.

My 3-D project is a wedding favor.  This cute little favor would look beautiful at the wedding reception.  A little Curvy Keepsake Box filled with maybe some chocolates?  Keeping with the curves of the box, I curved my little Thank You banner to keep the project flowing.  I also added Wink of Stella to the bigger dragon fly on this project.  uSIng the same products as my card but with addition to the Curvy Keepsake Box Thinlet Die.
