I love the simplicity & style of this stamp set. It was very easy to create with! I have a friend dying from cancer. She's on hospice care & may only have days left. So naturally I'm thinking of her daughter at this time. My mother died from cancer a number of years ago. I understand how hard it is! When the time comes I will send this card.<br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEigasWY0Od1APPV3aQJObMI7cWtgfMmGqCupdy-HtuFZSuWiC_VM-XW73OyC0fQPOcNmMWGCblhAIhqgT6xbFeDyZPz_p3RreNVI8sJTE7Dp2TVW3l5yYz24ges91yNrFE98sOcK4oaVEhp/s1600/blog+hop+020.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 300px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5676321756592747170" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEigasWY0Od1APPV3aQJObMI7cWtgfMmGqCupdy-HtuFZSuWiC_VM-XW73OyC0fQPOcNmMWGCblhAIhqgT6xbFeDyZPz_p3RreNVI8sJTE7Dp2TVW3l5yYz24ges91yNrFE98sOcK4oaVEhp/s400/blog+hop+020.jpg" /></a><br /><br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh8lM2hcZ0GJ7sAg441nJk27NvnAuGKENWhPosm0lF0iK9skCLUft9XgZRCSiHhnNBY678s9sRrxKQKORn4FMeHCnOYkOWMVNai-qWEe7LQWGTZW3MiXHBtKsJMXH1SHtt11gYf3mNHrebD/s1600/blog+hop+024.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 300px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5676321641767223922" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh8lM2hcZ0GJ7sAg441nJk27NvnAuGKENWhPosm0lF0iK9skCLUft9XgZRCSiHhnNBY678s9sRrxKQKORn4FMeHCnOYkOWMVNai-qWEe7LQWGTZW3MiXHBtKsJMXH1SHtt11gYf3mNHrebD/s400/blog+hop+024.jpg" /></a><br /><br /><br /><br /><div><br />Next up is <a href="http://www.sweetstephcardcreations.blogspot.com/"><span style="font-size:180%;"><span style="color:#ff0000;"><strong>Stephanie Washburn's blog!</strong></span></span><br /></a>Thanks for stopping by!

It's really great to have a little stash on hand, so I decided I'd make a few tags with this adorable set! I love to paper piece and that's what I did here. Just stamped on pretty paper (K & co. I think) that I got last year. Smaller prints work best. These stamps don't have a lot of fussy detail, so I was able to cut them out in a snap! Once again the Twinery's colors were a perfect match & the perfect accent!<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhMGAgzvXLBPUWc3jMRQ2kKnbcdALRO0Lt-Ebfm_VK-8xNKL7xdravitxKobCxtefmc4_rZFBZubBsbDnwWjOeSL3mAsk1VR3JvkBRAh0112fsGILRGrEAyzbT_0aCaxJFzG2SVaR1Jkh9s/s1600/blog+hop+015.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 267px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhMGAgzvXLBPUWc3jMRQ2kKnbcdALRO0Lt-Ebfm_VK-8xNKL7xdravitxKobCxtefmc4_rZFBZubBsbDnwWjOeSL3mAsk1VR3JvkBRAh0112fsGILRGrEAyzbT_0aCaxJFzG2SVaR1Jkh9s/s400/blog+hop+015.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5672985382983775858" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgF7oT67F28b26DJ4jkW7-ddSMz1gBY3Ui9ccdq1CJ24jk8feDSZU7nT-Tnp7urOGwGLW5dA5sGnEwHi_BrnTTEDluXv8O4kvbOyw92rKEUtMJkxZ7LsCrKU9lYtwU0cpbl6pcVZWxJzHr-/s1600/blog+hop+018.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgF7oT67F28b26DJ4jkW7-ddSMz1gBY3Ui9ccdq1CJ24jk8feDSZU7nT-Tnp7urOGwGLW5dA5sGnEwHi_BrnTTEDluXv8O4kvbOyw92rKEUtMJkxZ7LsCrKU9lYtwU0cpbl6pcVZWxJzHr-/s400/blog+hop+018.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5672985291338511858" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi_yPpUfBdRaIpPVsHLZoKO18akzkOpNcukl4-FVLjMIkSRqc5Zk8s10bAEi4T9rIpEaIHlpIrIWV61rIQUZje3mobIJ22Tm1BPoYreyyA1AZ2tFnskugXxb4Y3A76_MtJy_2s8eY87p4vL/s1600/blog+hop+016.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi_yPpUfBdRaIpPVsHLZoKO18akzkOpNcukl4-FVLjMIkSRqc5Zk8s10bAEi4T9rIpEaIHlpIrIWV61rIQUZje3mobIJ22Tm1BPoYreyyA1AZ2tFnskugXxb4Y3A76_MtJy_2s8eY87p4vL/s400/blog+hop+016.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5672985189207062114" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhBGmiRH55rn3P_FHNj2CQXcBD_s3N8SqZVi5c6Yh_bQ5K2uYL_dfi3_MwximCQytYmAc0nktTHU7WQamolXILR4SH1UREOj2m-C9l4aYfWHZEk8v97aUU6clJfJkYcVmKXUIki4lLwd_ya/s1600/blog+hop+017.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 387px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhBGmiRH55rn3P_FHNj2CQXcBD_s3N8SqZVi5c6Yh_bQ5K2uYL_dfi3_MwximCQytYmAc0nktTHU7WQamolXILR4SH1UREOj2m-C9l4aYfWHZEk8v97aUU6clJfJkYcVmKXUIki4lLwd_ya/s400/blog+hop+017.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5672985083144701762" /></a><br /><br /><br /><div align="center"><br />As you make your way through the hop make sure you comment on each and every post.

I ran it through with a double layer and took it right to my sewing machine. I left a small opening for the fiberfill and then stitched to close . The pink bird... I added wings and vintage buttons.<br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg5xRDYz39PiJXLAozQpYbeWDoeeH81SUaj_zinCGmBu-ZeF6FR9JSrZzvc1iz9te_UOzG9dca__DKbBYBip_-4bCouHfDB2zQTUYWcFmBsnm0f-67eTUPTTY6JJG6CtQbIAqUCDjE44XqX/s1600/blog+hop+007.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 300px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5664649392713682434" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg5xRDYz39PiJXLAozQpYbeWDoeeH81SUaj_zinCGmBu-ZeF6FR9JSrZzvc1iz9te_UOzG9dca__DKbBYBip_-4bCouHfDB2zQTUYWcFmBsnm0f-67eTUPTTY6JJG6CtQbIAqUCDjE44XqX/s400/blog+hop+007.jpg" /></a><br />The brown one got a pinback.

He bought MDF board for Lowes and painted with chalkboard paint. I just used the kids sidewalk chalk to draw with. I think it was a little wet, thats why I got clearer images. I was inspired by <a href="http://blog.amyatlas.com/2011/03/batter-up-guest-dessert-feature/"><span style="color:#ff0000;">this</span> </a>party on Amy Atlas.

<br />I had a SUPER busy weekend! Two of my childern were born on August 12th, so we had BOTH of their parties on the 13th. ( I know a "little" crazy!) My son's baseball party was in the morning!
<br />The <a href="http://scor-pal.blogspot.com/"><span style="color:#ff0000;">SCOR-Pal</span></a> is a huge time saver when you're making paper rosettes. Especially when the folds are only 1/4" wide! I put together fun & festive ice cream toppers and tied on wooden spoons with the NEW denim twine from <a href="http://thetwinery.com/"><span style="color:#ff0000;">The Twinery</span></a>. It matched the colors of the party perfectly! The vintage ice cream cups & spoons are for sale in my<a href="http://papertreats.etsy.com/"> shop.</a> I'll be posting lots of party pics here very soon!

Since there's always so many things to buy, I went "shopping" through the things I already own instead of just buying more stuff. A while ago I found this neat jewelry tree from IKEA -it's a great base for my "sweet tree".<br /><br />I bought adorable cupcake liners from my local bakery shop and punched 2 holes. Charcoal twine from the <a href="http://thetwinery.com/"><span style="color:#009900;">Twinery</span></a> worked great as a hanger!<br /><br /><p><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg7Eq1bPTts6pGRWomj8l8fiHt0QSQ1GMR4AFSiak5obPgMii15drFbmJyb3ddXvnXWy6904iFa-4AnzatdnpvYBu0vNQimrDNMPoYPf_RiuW-XQySbdB1kwvcdoRk3Jd03q-mHBK3oiW38/s1600/green+pink+party+013.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 338px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5633708993251469378" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg7Eq1bPTts6pGRWomj8l8fiHt0QSQ1GMR4AFSiak5obPgMii15drFbmJyb3ddXvnXWy6904iFa-4AnzatdnpvYBu0vNQimrDNMPoYPf_RiuW-XQySbdB1kwvcdoRk3Jd03q-mHBK3oiW38/s400/green+pink+party+013.jpg" /></a><br /></p><br /><p><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEik3RKh4S6FU5VskZxzblpJzUMN07okxkT7UBw7V-MjkbfOpQaY-ZIDVW0WAflYGXwRMJfyr4Q_UUGWX8as__GugqMVC4vx6Lq18yxgWFYPq6x3Dxto8ASuvt-UDGd6FsDblboNZQkR0wLw/s1600/green+pink+party+010.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 300px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5633708856033672146" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEik3RKh4S6FU5VskZxzblpJzUMN07okxkT7UBw7V-MjkbfOpQaY-ZIDVW0WAflYGXwRMJfyr4Q_UUGWX8as__GugqMVC4vx6Lq18yxgWFYPq6x3Dxto8ASuvt-UDGd6FsDblboNZQkR0wLw/s400/green+pink+party+010.jpg" /></a> </p><br />You'll have to stop by again soon to see all the photos after the parties!papertreatshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18140869645555378778noreply@blogger.com11tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4505578895078914766.post-43045373715130748102011-07-18T19:18:00.000-07:002011-07-18T20:20:16.375-07:00Busy Summer!I can't believe how fast the summer is flying by! .........<br />My oldest daughter informed me yesterday of her spots all over her tummy. Later I discovered the other 2 displaying the same thing: Chicken pox...yeah! At least they are not in school right now! But it does cause some rearranging in the schedule!<br />I have been busily working on my 2 kids birthdays for a few weeks now. I'm planning a Baseball party for my 8yr old & a Patisserie party for my 13 yr old(inspired by my daughter Madeleine's french name) My son & daughter were both born on August 12th, 5 years apart! I know it's crazy but were having Carson's party in the morning and Madeleine's in the evening!<br /><br />I came across this wonderful <a href="http://ohhappyday.com/2011/03/confetti-invitations-template/"><span style="color:#ff0000;">invitation</span></a> over on O happy Day. I just followed Jordan's tutorial. I thought it would be a fun and unique way to invite Madeleine's friends! Jordan was so nice to include the label to print too! If you decide to make these yourself.....I found the poppers at Wal-Mart for 50 cents. I HIGHLY suggest NOT popping them! Just peel off the top & labels and dump out the confetti. That way you don't have to disassemble them! I tried to take one apart ...let me tell you it was a royal pain! So...don't even try! :) lol<br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjF8U5-EEcZ_7A2A_SJbTYEsXvU-D8OlwbcHEoKDbVg9Vkd0PR2Cia2AVrzTStPY1yJgpS07U6PjJXSCdK5l4pGLdgEOU0gCoXjweZAss2_FVrFrmkDdr0wJ8JV7SiPEGlP3pZ1c0nt9qcn/s1600/green+pink+party+001_picnik.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 386px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5630891334860399730" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjF8U5-EEcZ_7A2A_SJbTYEsXvU-D8OlwbcHEoKDbVg9Vkd0PR2Cia2AVrzTStPY1yJgpS07U6PjJXSCdK5l4pGLdgEOU0gCoXjweZAss2_FVrFrmkDdr0wJ8JV7SiPEGlP3pZ1c0nt9qcn/s400/green+pink+party+001_picnik.jpg" /></a> The colors for M's party are Pink, Green, Black & white.

I'm here to share a few ideas using mini poms! I have made pom poms with my fingers, a piece of cardboard and I even went out and bought a little Clover pom maker. I wanted to make itty bitty poms so when I came across this technique on Pinterest, I had to try ....<br />This is my own version tutorial.<br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEixto4E0u-4CxdC1_uTVgT-k_3xTY5vHSPWyDi57B2D9Mlc_YjbHaZBauN25CPu9GvkJjClZR0nAefZVt1f13Bv8XRxcEB1bLowellgsYygoTI-GGKg_b1GclxeBOkyK070bQqvfvoGOdE/s1600/mini+pom+how+to+collage.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 320px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5606570184654143346" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEixto4E0u-4CxdC1_uTVgT-k_3xTY5vHSPWyDi57B2D9Mlc_YjbHaZBauN25CPu9GvkJjClZR0nAefZVt1f13Bv8XRxcEB1bLowellgsYygoTI-GGKg_b1GclxeBOkyK070bQqvfvoGOdE/s320/mini+pom+how+to+collage.jpg" /></a> 1. Get the color of your choice Twinery twine, a nice sharp pair of pointed scissors. ( Mine are Fiskars) A long tined fork and waxed cord. I bought my Darice waxed cord at Joann's for $1.99 . It's located in the beading section by the stretch & hemp cord. Your going to wrap about 30 times around 2 of the tines.<br /><br /><div><br /><br /><p>2. Take a 4" or 5" length of waxed cord and go around the baker's twine tightly tie once. I then slide it off the tines, pinch hard, pull on the waxed cord and tie again. The waxed cord holds really well and you don't have to worry about your little pom coming loose!</p><br /><br /><br /><p>3. The waxed cord is perfect to hold onto when you start cutting your loops too.

But what I did was cut a 1/2" piece of cardstock the width of my card, wrapped twine all the way down. I carefully ran one edge through my sewing machine and the cut almost to the top of one side. That way I'd have longer grass in the back. I spread the twine apart and cut some of the cardstock away so it would not show. Then I adhered with hot glue for a strong hold.<br /><br /><br /><div><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5606568967710095538" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiKmnfURiAXfIjQHnRr5AjcoK5uQkeZVxHo7xW7AecWTtzZSY0cr5GzvEKANbOSuDjdqgcJLL-Qem3KhWvYdsfLaig5vIAhPeHpAutwGt9D2kH6SzDAik5IF1JM1TFQBC1m-wn6UVOZTeY/s320/papercrafts+BT+029.jpg" />I took the long ends of wax cord and threaded them with an embroidery needle so I could sew on the pollen.

It's almost spring! I had a super fun and busy weekend making these fun tags for our ladies' retreat! My dear husband punched hundreds of flowers. Each tag had custom colors with 4 stacked flowers. Each flower was hand sculpted to create a 3 dimensional look! What was really great <a href="http://thetwinery.com/">The Twinery</a> has yummy bakers twine that matches perfectly! It also makes it a cinch to tie up the bags!

Mine sure did! I was super busy the last few weeks getting ready for our annual Wild Game banquet Jan 29th. My husband and I worked tirelessly building and decorating a cabin set and I designed these really cool hors' oeuvres tables out of logs. Good thing he saved a bunch for me to choose from! It's fantastic being married to an Arborist!<br />I'm actually going to sell these in my NEW Etsy <a href="http://modernblooms.etsy.com/">store</a>! I think they would be so great for a Woodland or Rustic chic wedding! We made 6 of them. They're around 3 1/2' to 4 1/2' tall. The bigger slices of wood are about 3' across.<br /><br /><br /><p><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 206px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 320px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5568510514874538818" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg3iTfsHaGqnyeEfYnLyiX1_Z3ACtIln3K6EuGo5nJzIRyS-7Iv929c5kSoYeTTQ7dCEPfGSyK9nN3U20xq678mtEcAlGRzAEsMIA8vNVHgiP29ywXAzAg52XTkK0k7DKBzzGsMqdLoZcOB/s320/wild+game+banquet+2011+019.jpg" /><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 193px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5568510784923958658" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgC-KWuJuD-yMQmfnvdDjPO9qxB413Jf8YSMqvNr_aUZDsz0LW2qI5sqopDcT2XQWU2CuHtH769M7zK_vkqBnZnXttC3emLWXAx2gAEwS6rgdGkiup3O8-3Q5jLTMfwSGmdmfRxhFQbZ-oJ/s320/wild+game+banquet+2011+024.jpg" /></p><p> So I'm submitting this fun little card before the strike of midnight to fulfill my duty as a Twinery design team member :)<br /><br />I cut out a 3 1/4" cardstock circle and cut that in half. Took my mono adhesive....put a good amount on and adhered the twine. When I got to the Lilac, I just cut away the extra cardstock.<br />Since I didn't have a cute little "love" stamp, I hand wrote it with my white Signo pen!<br /><br />That's it! Simple. Cute. </p><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 243px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5568510996080706754" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjYdi_KPSCZqVFHnA4sAqa84CWTgIEX38Bcj8MlY3ZcPVuS7Sn4fIsSrrrsCFemgK_9i1ftrSh80EK7aGow_67pzaefJgi3WLJsnf_N2i0hpvChEMyq8pBTnUV0wxZ_WeImwoCbkkAkGvmC/s320/twine+ideas+015.jpg" />papertreatshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18140869645555378778noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4505578895078914766.post-59959038353624586212011-01-19T09:01:00.000-08:002011-01-19T10:11:51.188-08:00A New Year!What a blessing a New Year is!
