Hearts for February

Hi There!

I thought I share my Feb SSS swap since February is ending. Below is the card and heart embellisments I received from Colleen. It's very cute, really like the simplicity and details of the card. There was a matching candy top with the card but I got excited and helped myself to the heart chocolates already =)

A Fairwee Birthday!

Hi There!

I have bought this cute sweet november stamp of "Fairwee Emaline's Gift" and finally got a chance to use it! Had a lot of fun using the doilee paper which a sweet friend of mine shared with me =) You can find them at joann's or michaels or even smart and final in the baking section ;P This card was for Linda, her birthday is monday so stop on by her blog to show some love.  We celebrated with the girls early on President's Day weekend for her "Me Day" and it was very nice and fun to just spend quality time with each other. She was very happy with all our "handmade" cards since she wasn't expecting much already...hehehe.  Thanks for stopping by and hope you liked it too!

    Happy Heart Day!

    It was a nice day today at work. I got all these cute valentine candy grams and got to have a nice lunch with my favorite co-workers that keeps me sane ;p Tried to get work done but got too distracted with all the festivity that was going on...lol Hope you all have a nice Valentines yourself. Below is a picture of the candy grams I received to show you ^.^

    I also made my own candy grams to give away. I used the treat bags from Michael's and the heart punch from martha stewart along with some valentine designer paper. I would cut them to make small 2xx2 cards and glue the lace heart on for my tag around the treat bag.  Below is a shot of how they came how.

    Here is a close up of the tag

    In the spirit of "love" I also made another card with "In Stitches Tia" from Some Odd Girl Stamps. She is on the thread spindle here with some flowers and pearls to top off the card. Hope you like and have a good nite!

    Loving Memories

    Hi There!

    I have made this card a while back and wanted to share with you guys since it's the month of LOVE! The stamps sets used here are from Stampin Up (Love You Much, and Baroque Motifs). The top note is also a die cut from Stampin Up.  Remember that LOVE is not only seen in couples but also in friendships, family, and peers you work with because they bring out the COLORS in LIFE ;P I encourage you to take this chance to acknowledge their presence with sweet treats! Just bring it back to grade school of how you can't wait to exchange valentine cards and cherish them as if it was christmas all over again! Have a SWEET DAY!

    Love is in the Air

    Hi There!

    I have a card to share that I have made for my significant other =) I used the SOG "Sew Wonderful" set. This is yet my favorite set to use so far it is just absolutely adorable and screams out "use me!" hahaha. I used the heart spellbinder which i cut in half for the background and some heart stickers and ribbon to give it that full on valentine theme. I also used Martha Stewart glitter to flair the heart she is holding ;P Hope you like and thanks for stopping by!
