Feature Friday

Sorry this is a late post today! Well I'm off from renovating so I can get the house ready for company on Sunday! I didn't have time to get this ready ahead of time and had to get out this morning to run errands and food shopping. I hope you're off for the weekend and enjoying your weekend.

So today is the last week for my Cake Soiree Bundle Feature Friday. I wish I had the time to make some originals for you, but with everything going on in my life right now. I'm hoping things will quiet down in a couple more weeks.

So if you're wondering what I'm talking about with the Feature Friday, let me explain. I choose a project in a current catalog that I want to Feature each Friday. For the month of March I've Featured the Cake Soiree Bundle and the entire product suite. There are so many great coordinating products with this suite it's hard to use just one item. This stamp set comes in wood or clear mount and has multiple dies that will cut out just one image. So you can stamp say the leaves two times and use the two coordinating dies to cut them out.

Since my birthday is tomorrow, I thought these projects would be great! They came together very quickly. The Sweet Soiree Designer Series Paper does most of the work.

This birthday card I used Birthday Blossoms for the sentiment and all the embellishments are from the Sweet Soiree Embellishment kit. The only other item I used besides the Berry Burst ink was the Layering Ovals. I CASEd this card from Mary Hanson. She showed using this same layout and changing the sentiment for whatever occasion you need. Her birthday card used another stamp set. I thought this one worked great.

Here's a close up of the gorgeous embellishments. This kit really makes your projects come together quickly and look great!

Aren't these mini gable boxes adorable? I CASEd this project from Sharon Armstrong. Not much to put this all together. Isn't the tag beautiful? So elegant! Anyway I took a 2" x 12" piece of the Sweet Soiree DSP and wrapped around the box. BTW, this box is easy to put together.

Here you can see the detail on the tag. I stamped the sentiment and the lined flower with Berry Burst and the solid flower with Calypso Coral. The other flower was stamped with VersaMark and I used Silver Embossing Powder. Then just die cut everything and put together. If you haven't tried this ribbon you really need to. It's one of the new In Colors, Berry Burst Metallic edge and is so soft!

I hope you enjoyed these projects and have sparked your creativity! Stop by my studio for a class sometime and get more inspiration!
