Bee HappiLeaCraftin with Tamara

I have been working on a few things getting ideas as to what I will make for doing my 1st Craft Fair this year! I am using up some of my old Retired Stampin' Up! DSPs and loving them all over again! 😍       I'm hoping these Gift Bag Sets are going to be a hit at the Craft Sale a friend & I are going to attend this year! I know it is something I would consider buying if I were to be looking to purchase 😊      The envelope on the left is a Stampin' Up! Die Case that I re-purposed or altered to make into a Gift Card Holder. On the right is a matching Birthday Card, in the center is a little Gift Box and at the back is the Gift Bag for it all to go in. The gift box is a retired Stampin' Up! Mini Pizza Box. All of them are decorated with the Stampin' Up! Broadway Birthday bundle & Broadway Bound Specialty DSP.       I try to keep my dies in the same case as the set it co-ordinates with so I end up with lots of empty cases, I kn...

 I found a couple old Slimline Slider Cards that I had done back in 2020 and decided that I needed to make some more. They are so cute and when I came across the older version of Tamra's tutorial for them, I decided to give it a go. I like the slimmer version apposed to the newer version that is more dimensional. You can see Tamra's video HERE if you want to make a few of these awesome cards for yourself.     She is easy to follow, at least she was for me!!      This is such a fun card to make and decorate! I hope you will all watch her video and make a few for yourself.      Are you a lover of Gnomes as much as I am? You will love Nitwit Collections!! They have a number of super cute Gnome Collections including the one I used, Gnome Valentine Collection . Their collections are SO worth the $24 ish Canadian, and when they come out with a new collection you get a bonus. Totally worth it!!!!      See my card in action on my...

I am so excited about this awesome card!       I was watching videos this morning on YouTube as I usually do while I'm having my morning coffee and I found the Video Tutorial for this awesomeness !! It is by Country Craft Creations which is one of the many Channels I follow... I have become a bit of an addict 😂      Rather than saying it a dozen times... you can find all the info on the products I used to make this card in the description of the YouTube video of my card . Here is a better look at the front of the card.

     This is such an amazing project idea! Kudoos to Kathy Orta King for such an awesome project!! Well... all of her project are absolutely stunning! She is amazing!! She has tons of tutorial for purchase in her shop and I have purchased a few already 😬 I am maybe a little addicted... but she makes it so hard to not do her projects!      I have only made this one so far but I can definitely see more in my future 😉 I give out Gift Cards to my loved ones at Christmas so they can buy what they want so this project will be what I give them in! This one was a gift I gave to a friend already so I will have to make another one so I have it as a reference for making others!      This was such a fun project to make... can't wait to do other occasions as well! This one I gave to a friend after she said she wanted to WIN the Holiday Photo Folio I made as a give away on my Facebook page to those who comment on my posts. I thought that was a way ...

A Beautiful Treat Bag Gift Card Holder        I had seen this really cool gift card holder tutorial on YouTube done by Buckeye Inklings and I loved it and wanted to make one!! It was perfect because I had a birthday card I needed to do... better late than never 😉 This is what I came up with...      I did use all retired products but the recipient isn't a stamper so she isn't going to care 😂      I wanted this set all last catalog and I finally got it just a couple months before it retired!! I'm super glad I did cause I have a few tea drinkin' friends I can make things for with this set.      Even though I am a demonstrator, I think it's a good idea to use retired things sometimes either by themselves or with current things because your customers will still use them... if they can't continue to use what they have... they may not want to buy more because they think they have enough.      I think...

Re-purposed Stampin' Up! Dies Cases... Take Two!!      I am just having so much fun with these Dies Cases! I can't stop making them!! I did these 2 this afternoon after I was done work. They are just that easy to make 😉       I wasn't sure about this one until I added the DSP on the inside... then I loved it!! The little splash of pink was perfect and added tones to the project!      I may not be able to part with any of these! I will be making tones more cause they are just so awesome!! I hope you all agree and I will eventually see more of them on Pinterest when I search for re-purposed Stampin' Up! dies cases 😃      If you are wanting to add a piece of DSP to the inside of your case too, cut it to 5 1/8" x 8 1/8" and score one end at 1 3/4".  When you score, make sure the direction of you DSP is the right way if there is direction in it 😃 These measurements are for the smaller of the dies cases.  I have...
