Welcome Peeps

I saw the peep wreath idea on the Today show so I went ahead and made a super easy and cute edible peeps wreath.  I love everything about peeps except eating them!  Once I completed my wreath I was inspired to make a spring card using the Honeycomb Happiness retired stamp set from Stampin Up. It was quick and easy to make.  Happy spring to all my peeps!

I scream for Icecream

Happy National Ice Cream Day!  National Ice Cream Day is celebrated each year on the 3rd Sunday in July and is a part of National Ice Cream Month.  To commemorate the day, I pulled out the now retired Honeycomb Happiness stamp set to randomly stamp ice cream cones and filled them in with my top 3 favorites:mint chocolate chip, chocolate and strawberry.  I added a hand cut banner and a hand cut out icecream cone with cherry on top!

National Ice Cream day is a fun celebration enjoyed with a bowl, cup or cone filled with your favorite flavor of ice cream. So take the time and enjoy a cool treat.

Oh Hello bag

For my April workshop I used the retired Stampin Up Kraft bags to hold my workshop card kits.   I tucked the cards in and sealed it with a piece of Washi Tape and made a cute seal using the adorable chick from the now retired SAB Honeycomb Happiness stampset. Finished b wrapping bakers twine and sentiment stamped on the Washi Tape punched piece.  They were so cute and the workshop attendees squealed with delight!

Chicken or Egg?

What came first? The chicken or the egg. Today I am posting 2 of my Easter designs- one egg and 1 chicken. For the  egg, I used the Stampin Up Ovals Collection Framelits #129381 to cut a hole in the top layer that I textured using the Dots (retired) Textured Impressions Embossing Folder. Underneath I used the swish from the Stampin Up Work of Art #134111 stamp set in a palette of subtle inks.  I added some coordinating flowers punched using the Petite Petals #133322, Itty Bitty Accents and the Bird Builder #117191 punches.  The sentiment is from The Greatest Greetings #140703 stamp set.

 

For my 2nd card, I used the fabulous Wild Flower Fields DSP (no longer available) from the Stampin Up Sale-a-bration. For the egg, I used a small oval from the Ovals Collection Framelits #129381 and stamped the chevron image from the Work of Art #134111 stamp set. For the chick I used the Honeycomb Happiness (retired) stamp set then colored and cut him out to tuck behind the cracked egg.  I added the sentiment from the Honeycomb Happiness and cut into a banner. This card just made me happy.

Spring Chicken

Today’s post will definitely bring a smile to your face when you get this in your mailbox.  It is truly happy mail. Cammie used the free Stampin Up Sale-a Bration Honey Comb Happiness #141288 for the adorable chick a dee that was placed perfectly on the beautifully brayered meadow. The flower is from the Flower Shop #130939 and punched using the coordinating Pansy Punch #130698 and the stem is hand drawn to make a whimsical flower.

Here are other color combinations that Cammie used for this chick card.
