A Panda-morium Valentine's Day

     I have been having a great time with my Party Panda Stamp Set from this years Sale-A-Bration Brochure! I know Stampin' Up! doesn't usually bring in items from the brochure but I sure hope this one can make it in with a framelits die as well. 😃
     I seen a beautiful card by Kimberly Bockover Holman on the Facebook page for us Stampin'Up! demos and just loved it! I made sure it was alright if I CASEed it but I didn't have one of the products she used. She used the Sunshine and Rainbow's Bundle which I didn't feel I needed. So I headed on
over to Pinterest to see what I could find.  I searched the Lift Me Up Bundle and after seeing this card on Pinterest I thought combining the 2 beautiful cards would look great!
     I am really pleased with how it turned out! I am really loving this Party Panda set... not sure if I can say that enough 😅 they are just absolutely adorable!
     I did get the "Happy Valentine's Day" greeting from one of the Past Paper Pumpkin Kits. I believe it was January 2017, I should mark them somehow...
     I managed to get 3 projects completed yesterday so I'm going to see what I can do today! This one is from today but the other Panda cards and the arrow card are from yesterday. I had to fix the Treat Box with the Rosette from yesterday too... the hot glue gun is going to be my friend 😉 I'm going to finish this post and go back to finding more wonderful cards to make! Thank You to everyone on Pinterest! You are all amazing at what you do!!















    I could not turn my mind off yesterday after getting a couple thing finished and scrolling through Pinterest so back to my Craft Room I went!
     A friend of mine wants a card to give to her grandbaby for Valentine's Day so my mind was just going... I know it doesn't look like much but this was all me 😆 although I guess you could say it was CASEd from a bunch of ideas swirling from looking on Pinterest...
     This card was the second one, the first was the one below but I didn't like the Honeycomb behind the Heart... it didn't stand out enough for my liking. The pink was much better. You can also see that the Panda is on the opposite side as the first card... It was getting late and I was getting tired, I glued the window sheet to the wrong side... I messed up! I finished the card anyway and it became my favorite of the 2, so sometimes messing up is a good thing!
     Everything was a little close so it was pretty bare around the card and I wanted to fill the space with something... with the theme of hearts I grabbed the Confetti Hearts Border punch and punched using the colors in the card. It was a little challenging seeing as I was so tired but I managed and it looked great!
     Yet again, I am very pleased with how the second card turned out! The first card is nice too but the second is my favorite!
    

     The last card for this post is just a simple cute card using more Past Paper Pumpkin Kits. These really are great kits to use after your kit contenst are all used up. I have been getting them faithfully now for 2 years. There was a few months that I wasn't getting them but that was during their 2nd year of distribution. I am loving all the kits now, with the odd exception but for the most part they are great! 
     I believe it is the stamp set from the January 2017 Paper Pumpkin kit and the DSP and CS are current.  This one is an easy case, using colors from whatever DSP you choose... it's just that easy.  I cased this one from a card I found on Pinterest searching Paper Pumpkin past kits looking for Valentine's Day ideas. You can see the original card here found on Pinterest.

Fancy Fold Card

I'm not sure what to call this card as the one I found wasn't in English! I was surfing on Pinterest one day and found an amazing card!! Of coarse I re-pinned it for later cause I had to give it a try myself. The only problem is, its in another language and the measurements are in cm instead of inches. I really wanted to try the card so I printed out her template and tried to convert cm to inches. I made a card with my dimensions and I am fairly pleased with it.   I tried to go fairly simple on the front as the inside is a little bulky. I used a Mojo Monday sketch for the inspiration on for front of the card.  Sketch 319     For the inside I pretty much used her layout but just used different paper.  I am in the Holiday spirit so really wanted it to be a Christmas card.  I haven't used the specialty paper in the Winter Frost Specialty DSP yet so thought it would work perfectly.   She had a template designed, but of coa...

Christmas Cheer Gift Card Holder

     Last year I carried on my Mom's tradition of doing the 12 days of Christmas with my daughter. She had done it every year buy one since my daughter was about 2, I can't remember exactly when she started it... but I can't remember yesterday so... 😂 I decided instead of giving my 16 year old a bunch of stupid things she would likely never use and I would likely toss in the garbage before long, I would give her gift cards instead.  It was a great idea, it was a hit!      Her birthday is Boxing Day so we usually go shopping in the city seeing as it's still a pretty busy day for most families.  She was able to spend around $200-$250 in gift card money so it was all good!  I think doing it that way is a much better way of doing it, what do you think?      I thought I would get a head start on Gift Cards for this year as it is a great way to give a gift and still have the recipient have a choice in what to buy. I have a fe...
