Wedding Inspiration {Pink & Yellow}

Birthday Scrapping and Trying a New Product


    I had fun in my scraproom today.  In addition to working on a "to be revealed later" project, I also did some scrapping of the Birthday photos.  I used a new (to me) product on the scrap pages, Fabric Paper by Dear Lizzie and American Crafts.  It is fabric that is backed with an ultra-thin adhesive foam. The fabric paper cuts nicely with my paper trimmer, though I did not try it on the Cricut today.  Don't worry, I have more of the fabric paper and that will be my next experiment.

     
    I purchased my fabric paper at Taylored Expressions.  I used two sheets of the 12 x 12 inch fabric paper, removing the middle section with the trimmer (and saving it for later - I am thinking cute cards!).  I also purchased a package of the 6 x 6 inch fabric paper and plan to use it on some cards.
     


    I used Base Camp and Storybook cartridges to complete my layout.  I cut the phrase Happy 50th Birthday with Base Camp and attached the letters to the flag banner at the top of the fabric paper. I then cut a two layer tag using Storybook where I matted the computer printed journaling.  My friend Kathy gives me grief for not journaling often enough so I am working to mend my ways!


    I cut an extra tag set and affixed it under the edge of one of the HUGE-I-FIED Prima flowers.  The other Prima flower is on the left page, afloat on a field of flowers.  I used three lazer cut pink flowers from my stash of long ago purchased die cuts.  Between die cuts and alphabets that I no longer purchase, I should be saving money... Well, except for those new cartridges!!


    I have to say that I quite like the Dear Lizzy Fabric Paper and look forward to using more.  I am not sure where else you can purchase the fabric paper, but I plan to "google" it and find out if there are other patterns.Source URL: http://policfashion2011.blogspot.com/2010/03/

Easter Cards - Two From One


    Have you been by Custom Crops yet this week to check out this week's new articles and projects?  There is a whole lot of Easter going on at CC!  And of course I contributed to the Easter Fest.  Using Cricut Design Studio I designed one cut file that creates two great cards!  The first card is my sad, sad attempt at humor and the second offers the opportunity for Easter stamping.


    The first card features two chocolate bunnies in conversation.  Sadly the bunny on the right cannot hear as well as he used to.... Someone bit off his ear!!   This silly card sports several techniques:  the front is framed in a welded border frame, the bunnies are elevated using pop dots, and the voice balloons use the mini gel pen adaptor in the Cricut to write the words, then finally the balloons were cut after replacing the Cricut's housing blade.


    The inside of the card has a large balloon with the Happy Easter phrase and a background of printed paper also cut with the Cricut.


    The second card had a scalloped background, two chocolate bunnies and is trimmed with a ribbon and bow.  The inside of the card is blank so that you can customize the card according to your preference.  I used this cute Easter stamp set and pink Stampin' Up ink.


    You will find the cut file and complete instructions for these cards at Custom Crops.  Follow the blinkie on the upper left side of my blog to go directly to my page at Custom Crops.

    If you have not already done so, please leave a comment under the previous post, BBTB2, so that you can be including in the drawing for a $20.00 certificate from SCRAP YOUR TRIP!!Source URL: http://policfashion2011.blogspot.com/2010/03/

I have no idea what to call this, but I like it . . . Works For Me Wednesday

    I'm thinking of just re-titling this..."Longest Blog Post Title in History."

    Anyhoo...I wanted to show you guys this handy-dandy measuring cup that works for me.


    {Photo Credit: pamperedchef.com}

    Why? Fill one end and it's perfect for liquids. Flip it and the other side is perfect for measuring solid, semi-solid and sticky stuff.


    You know that stuff that is hard to measure....shortening, peanut butter, honey. Just fill it to the amount you need and just push it right out. Voila!

    See...


    Mine is from Pampered Chef...no, I don't sell PC, but I have seen them other places. Sur La Table carries a mini version! I still really don't know what to call it. A flip-able, measuring cup pusher-outer thingy. There...that's it.


    {On a side note, any recipe that has both butter AND Crisco is good in my book. I'll share this with you later.}


    Go on and check out the other Works For Me Wednesday tips at We Are THAT Family.

    You can find Bake at 350's WFMW archives here. Next week's edition is "greatest hits."Source URL: http://policfashion2011.blogspot.com/2010/03/

Pink & Yellow: At Home

Papertake Weekly - Easter challenge

    Happy Tuesday everyone! It's time for a new challenge over at Papertake Weekly, and this week, it's an Easter Theme that is being sponsored by Simon Says Stamp. I've been waiting for a week to post this card. This is one of those that I absolutely love and couldn't wait to show you!! LOL! I used three of the new stamps from the Hoppy Easter/Spring collection available at Magnolia-licious. I used #3032 Little Bunny Tilda (one of my new favorites), #449 Big Hoppy, and #650 Spring Fence. I stamped Little Bunny Tilda an extra time cause I wanted a matching ribbon for around Big Hoppy's neck. This reminds me of the Lucille Ball and Harpo Marx episode of I Love Lucy. LOL!

    Both Little Bunny Tilda and Big Hoppy are cut out and popped up on dimensional tape. All the stamps are colored with Copic markers. The sentiment is from The Cutting Cafe' from a set called Happy Easter Inside and Out Greetings Printable Stamps. This set is packed full of Easter Greetings for all your needs! The papers are all digital from Nitwits in a set called The Carrot Patch. I added a silk bow made with my Bow Easy, and hung a cute bunny charm from it.


    That's it for me today! Please be sure and hop over to Papertake Weekly to see the fabulous creations from the design team. You're in for a real treat! Then get busy and make your own Easter project to join in on the challenge. You might get lucky and win a fabulous prize from Simon Says Stamp! Thanks for stopping by to see me today, and hope to see you back again soon!! Hugs!
    This card is for sale on Ebay if you are interested. Just click HERE.

    Basket Case...I made these for the first time last year. My favorite part? The Easter grass peeking out! :)


    "Fluffy" chicks...so simple and so sweet! I *heart* these! This would be a good one for decorating with the kids.


    {They look really cute with the baskets.}


    And, finally, which to *you* eat first? The Ears or the Tails? These are really easy to make...click here and I'll show you how.

    {Re-name these"Twilight bunnies" and make the bite out of the neck! ;)}
