3D Thursday - A Blast From The Past

Welcome everyone!  Happy Thursday!  This week we are doing a Blast From the Past project post.  The project I chose to feature is a cute little Spring time hand sanitizer holder created by past design teammate Jenn Gulch.  Jenn left the team to pursue a nursing career and I'm happy to say that she just passed her final boards.  I'm so very happy for her.  Ok enough chit chat and on to her super cute project.

Jenn created the base of this little sanitizer / treat holder out of one piece of cardstock.  She also used the large Daisy punch which is retiring soon for her focal point. 

Here's a sideview.   Now if you are getting tired of hand sanitizer them know that a few Hershey Nuggets can also be put inside.  Ready to see how she made it?  Just click on the link below for the FREE PDF. 

Happy crafting and see you next week!

Candy Flower Garden - Splitcoast Stamper Guest Tutorial Author

Good morning!  Today is an exciting day for me, as my written and video tutorial goes live on Splitcoast Stampers for this fun and quick "Candy Flower Garden" Project!

This project would make a wonderful Mother's Day or Birthday gift.  The overall measurement of the finished project is 4" x 4".  The basic box is made from a 6" x 8 1/2" piece of Old Olive Cardstock.  I added Spring M&Ms to 1" x 8" Cello Bags and cut them down to my desired height.  The sentiment on the little sign is from the stamp set, "You're So Sweet".  A written tutorial can be found here at Splitcoast Stampers.

Below is the Video Tutorial for the basic project.

 I had so much fun making the first one, I decided to make some variations of it.

Here they are.

Notice that I kept the tabs on in the back and added the fence to the back of the "garden".  I used Sixlets candy this time and put them in Stampin' Up! Retired Treat Tubes.  I used a sentiment from the stamp set, "Happy Birthday Gorgeous" this time.

I think this last one is my favorite!  Everyone loves the Daisy Punch, right?  So I kept the back flaps again and added a little wooden fence to the front. Using Stampin' Up! retired Fringe Scissors I added some grass to the front of my fence.  This time I used Lemon Lime Twist for my basic box.  The sentiment is from a retired set called "Easter Blossoms".  These little "gardens" will be great for my upcoming craft fairs!
Thanks so much for stopping by and have a crafty day!

Daisies For You

Today I want to share with you a simple Sympathy card I made for a dear friend.  I turned to the Daisy Punch to make a sweet card.  I used Crushed Curry Ink to sponge the edges of my flowers punch ed out from Crushed Curry Cardstock to give them more depth.  I folded them in half and added dimensionals between the fold to help them pop a bit.  I added the Old Artichoke stems.  The Burlap Background is a new background stamp we have and I love it!  I cut the corners out and cut fringe all the way around it to give it a frayed look.  The Sympathy saying is from the Rose Wonder stamp set and cut out with the matching thinlit die in the Rose Garden set.  Thanks for taking the time to stop by.  Have a good day!
