How to Create a Sprinkle Turnabout Gift Bag

Second Post for the today
If your looking for the Altenew Baby Mini Album, click here

Hello everyone!!  I’m here again showcasing the Sprinkles Turnabout Stamp set  and the Sprinkles Tag Set from Concord & 9th as apart of their 2nd Birthday Celebration!!

Lets take a look:

Concord & 9th Sprinkled with Love

Yes, I created a gift bag using the Sprinkles Turnabout stamp set and the Sprinkles Tag Set!

I love how this cute little bag turned out.

Concord & 9th Sprinkled with Love die

 

Here’s how I created it:

The tag:

  • Using the Sprinkles Turnabout stamp create the sprinkle pattern on a piece of white cardstock, with 4 different ink colors. Note: Follow the direction on the back of the package to line up the stamp perfectly to get the even pattern.
  • Stamp the sentiment in the center of the pattern with black ink.
  • Ink up the stamp again this time using Versamark ink and sprinkle black embossing power over the sentiment.
  • Heat set the powder for a raised intense sentiment.
  • Use the Sprinkles Tag die to cut out the tag.
  • Use We R Memory Keepers Power Punch to punch a hole at the top of the tag.

The bag:

  • Create the bag with We R Memory Keepers Box Punch Board.
  • Before folding the bag, use the small sprinkle stamp and Versamark Ink to create sprinkles all over the bag.
  • Sprinkle clear embossing powder on top and heat set.  This gives the image a translucent look.
  • Use ribbon to close the bag and attach the tag.  Once the bow is tied, run a piece of string under the bow and attach a couple charms.

Pretty amazing to see how a stamp set can transform a piece of cardstock.

So, what do you think?  Will you use the Sprinkles Turnabout stamp set and die to create a couple of gift bags?  Let me know.  I would love to hear from you.

Concord & 9th 2nd Birthday Celebration

Hello everyone!! Today I’m so excited to be here celebrating Concord & 9th 2nd Birthday!! Yes, they turn 2 today!!

Time flies when your having fun is such a true statement.  I remember when they first started out and to see them grow in such a way feels good as a customer.

I’m so happy that I get to celebrate with them!

Take a look at the card I created:

Concord & 9th Seriously I Thank You

Concord and 9th, Seriously Thank You for trusting me to showcase your products within my creations!! I truly appreciate it.

This stamp set is totally amazing.  The sentiment is so meaningful and powerful.  It lets the receiver know that you really thank them.

Here’s how I created this card:

  1. Use distress inks to create the watercolor background on watercolor paper.
  2. Then heat set it so that the watercolor dries completely.
  3. After that, prep the watercolor panel using an anti-static tool.
  4. Stamp the sentiment using Versamark ink.
  5. Pour silver embossing powder of the stamped sentiment.
  6. Brush off the excess and heat set the powder.
  7. Die cut the panel using Neat and Tangle Scalloped Die.
  8. Cut and score the card base to 4.25 x 5.50 scored at 5.5o.
  9. Use a star embossing folder and emboss the card front with stars.
  10. Adhere the watercolor panel to the front of the card base using 3M foam tape.
  11. Add some clear gumdrops to finish the card off.

Nothing to it!!

Announcement:

Deflecto’s Caddy Wheel Base

Hello everyone!!  I’m here today with Deflecto’s Caddy Wheel Base!!!  Yes, the long awaited wheel base to go with their fabulous Caddy Organizer!!

When I saw the Caddy Wheel Base at Creativation back in January, I couldn’t wait to get my hands on one.  I could push my supplies across my living room floor without any problems. LOL!!

Lets take a look:

Caddy Wheel Base

When all my little ladies are spending time with me we craft on my living room floor so my caddy on wheels makes it easier for us to share the supplies with out making a mess.

Take a closer look:

Deflecto Caddy Wheel Base

Here are some facts about the Caddy Wheel Base:

  1. The wheels swivel that lets you move an entire stack of supplies safely and easily.
  2. It moves easily on carpet.
  3. It has a lift and lock tab that secures multiple Caddy Organizers to the Caddy Wheel Base.Deflecto Caddy Wheel Base
  4. You stack as many caddy’s as you have that your able to push or pull.
  5. Its perfect for scrapbooking crops or any craft retreat.  No table space needed.
  6. The Caddy Organizer is sold separately.

I can’t wait to get more caddies so that I can have all of my supplies all in one place.

While at Creativation, I had so much fun pushing a stack of Caddy’s around the convention floor.

Check it out:

Stacked Deflecto Caddy Organizers

That’s 6 caddy’s on the wheel base!!

Think about all of the supplies you could have in 6 caddy’s with you on a craft trip!!

So what do you think? Where will you use your Caddy Wheel Base loaded with Caddy Organizers?  I would love to hear from you.

Thanks for stopping by, I hope you were inspired here today.

{Clean and Simple} – Juicy

Hello everyone!!!  It’s CASology Tuesday!!  We are back with another Clean and Simple Cue Card just for you!!

This week’s cue card:

Take a look at my card:

Take a look in the inside of this card:

I absolutely love this Face It! stamp set from Visible Image.  I love all of the details in this face stamp. It looks so real. I had to used it for our cue card today.  The lips are juicy for share. I used Altenew Razzleberry Crisp Dye Ink to make them stand out.

Since I didn’t add a sentiment on the front, I decided to add one inside.  I used Butterfly Reflection #Hashtag stamp set to add a fun sentiment.

What do you think?
