The story behind this card... I went to a Stampin' Up! meeting at my Manager's house. Our meeting began with discussing all the business stuff, then the best part...stamping. She had this card for us to make, however, I didn't get it finished that night so I brought home all the pieces thinking I would put it together later. Well, when later came I couldn't remember what the original card looked like. So with my additions and subtractions this is what I came up with. I'm pleased!

Petal Card Mellow Moss Tote
Ok... here's the second tote I made with the Petal Card, bigz die. This tote I did a little different. I cut the rounded part off three sides of each petal card. I used the part I cut off to put on the front of the tote. It does make the tote thinner which means not as much room for filling. This one also has a fun little handle. You have to try this tote it's fun and easy to make.

Petal Card Blue Tote
I'm so sad they are discontinuing the Petal Card, bigz die. I used two of them to make this little tote. I glued 3 sides of each petal card together and left the fourth side of each one up, for the handle. The flower off to the side was my version of a flower I saw in Stampin Success. It didn't come out nearly as nice as the version I saw. I'm just happy it resembles a flower. :) To make it, I took two 1" strips of 12" paper and punched down the edge of each one with the eyelet border. I put them through the crimper and wrapped them one at a time onto sticky paper. When I finished, some of the white sticky paper was showing through so I sprinkled blue glitter to cover it. Not so sure I'd try this flower again... :) I did try the tote again, you'll see it soon.

Father's Day Card
Father's Day is tomorrow and I'm just now making a card... Masculine cards are not a favorite of mine. I really struggle with them and I don't have many masculine stamps. I'm always happy with the outcome but not always excited about making it. I'll have to practice more with "masculine", which probably means more stamps (darn.) I hate when I have to get more stamps. LOL :)

Celebrate Matchbox
A matchbox full of jelly beans... now that's a celebration! I know I should be telling you about the matchbox but the jelly beans are soooo yummy! They are Starburst, Red Fruits. I'm not a jelly bean fan but, these are de-lish!! Anyway, I think the matchbox is self explanatory. No tips or tricks on this, just another tasty treat in another fun container. :)

Love You Much Card
Ok, I really like this swirls and scribbles sizzlit. It's the funnest... Although anytime I use my bigshot it's the funnest! The flower paper is something I picked up for a great deal at the scrapbook expo. The heart is a left over from another project. I used the scalloped heart of hearts embosslits die and kept the piece that was left after the heart was used. I just trimmed it to this square shape and placed a white piece of paper behind it. The "love you much" stamp fit perfectly inside.
