6X6 SCRAPBOOK PAGE
I love 6x6 scrapbooks! The smaller page forces you to eliminate pictures you may otherwise try to cram on a 12x12 page and surprisinly you end up with a great album with some of your best pictures. I used Taken with Teal for this page and embossed the corner with the Elegant Bouquet Textured Folder and the Big Shot. I added the bling from our Eggcellent Egg Kit in the Occasions Mini. Thanks for visiting!

TWO STEP BIRD PUNCH
I am so happy that I purchased this punch! These birds are adorable not only on cards but on scrapbook pages and even on 3D items. The punch creates the bird, wing AND the branch the bird is perched on! Too cute! I used Old Olive c/s for the card and layered the bottom with the Sweet Pea dsp; I also punched the bird using scraps from that same dsp. The Two Step bird Punch and Sweet Pea dsp are in the Occasions Mini. I just used some Whisper White c/s scraps for the "window". I've been having fun making several projects with this punch! Thanks for visiting!

CIRCLE FLOWER
Hi! What do you think of the flower embellishment on this card? I made it using the Circles #2 Originals Die for the Big Shot. I bent and crumpled the circles to get the look I wanted then used Glue Dots to hold it in place. The dsp is our Welcome Neighbor dsp that can be yours FREE from the Sale-a-Bration mini. This dsp comes in a pad which consists of 72 sheets of 6x6 paper!!! I also used the Good Neighbors stamp set, also FREE in the Sale-a-Bration mini, to stamp the leaf on the Melon Mambo band. The smallest circle was a perfect fit under our Clear Buttons! Thanks for visiting!

TEXTURED BOX #2
Okay so the previous post shows how I created a crate using the Box #2 die for the Big Shot, that one requires two #2 boxes. Here is what the #2 box looks like by itself, isn't it cute? I used our Heavy Window Sheets to create this. After die cutting the box, I embossed it with the Petals a Plenty textured embossing folder from the Holiday Mini. This embossing folder is still available although the Holiday Mini period is over. That item number is 116824 should you like to order one. But isn't this box adorable made with the Window Sheets?? If you decide to do this the heavy sheets work the best and fold easily! Thanks for visiting!

HAPPY VALENTINES DAY!
Okay, before I get into my project share just a side note, today is my son's 35th birthday! He lives in Washington and I miss him very much! Happy Birthday son!
Here is a project that I've been dying to make! I FINALLY purchased the Box #2 die for the Big Shot and I just love it! So I wanted to make a little Valentines treat for my 14 year old grandson and I said COOL, I got just the project! During Leadership Donna Johnson made me and her other room-mates one of these and I couldn't wait to use the idea. I used Chocolate Chip c/s to cut 2 boxes using the die and the Big Shot then used Sending Love dsp from the Occasions Mini to decorate it. Of course I filled it with some sweets for him, which really is all he wanted, box be darn! LOL! This is a very easy project. After cutting the 2 boxes you fold on the scored lines but you DO NOT fold the lid, this is the top of your little "crate" or container, whichever word you prefer. Then you put just the bottom of the box together following those scored lines. After decorating inside of the lid you punch ONE with the Large Oval Punch, then you decorate inside the other box lid, put the boxes back to back and punch with the Large Oval Punch DIRECTLY over where you punched the other lid; the reason for this is our punches do not go through 2 pieces of c/s PLUS, it lines the handles up PERFECTLY!! Thanks for visiting!

WINDOW SHEETS
Hi! Here's a fun card I'd like to share. Not sure if you can tell but the flower image is stamped on our Medium Window Sheets (#114323)! I stamped the image using black Staz-On then colored them in using Classic Ink and a Blender Pen. It is so easy to do and gives your project a little sump'n sump'n! The card base is Celery Green c/s and I used Tea Party dsp. I also added a strip of Pretty in Pink c/s that I punched with the Scallop Trim Border punch from the Sale-a-Bration mini catalog and Oh yeah, the flower stamp and the sentiment are both also from the SAB mini. The flower is from the set called Happy Moments and the sentiment from Whimsical Words. All three of these items can be yours FREE with a $50 order, contact me for more information. Under the Window Sheet I placed a die cut leaf that I cut using our Stampin' Up! Little Leaves Sizzlits Die that I cut with the Big Shot of course. Thanks for visiting!
