This is my first time using ribbon from Lovebug Creations and I absolutely love it!  The colors are so rich and  I love the feel of this ribbon!  For my project, I used this new file from the silhouette store.  It is perfect to hold little trinkets or jewelry.  I couldn't decide which color ribbon I wanted to use, so I used every color I have :-)

The sentiment is from our newest PBD release and the stamp of the month called "Love Today".  All of my papers are from the dollar spot at Target! (I picked them up last spring)

Thanks for stopping by today! Now I am going to send you over to the super talented Martha!!

Easter treat bag topper

Happy Wednesday!

Today over at Pink by Design, we are sharing paper punching techniques.  Paper punching adds extra detail to a project and is super easy to do.  I used a scallop punch and a dots punch to this cute little bag topper.

My boys aren't big candy fans so I am putting other treats in their Easter baskets ;-)

Don't forget we have an Easter challenge going on over at Pink by Design!  Submit any project with an Easter theme and you could win a $10 gift card to the Pink by Design Store!!  Head on over and Link up!!

I am going to share a project with you using the "Lucky" stamp set.  This is one of the new Half Pints and can be used for St. Patty's Day or other fun cards and projects throughout the year :-)  Mine is kind of a card within a card.

Here it is with the top card closed:

Now open:

This is a center panel step card that I bought in the silhouette store but you can find plenty of great tutorials online also.  All of my papers were from my scrap drawer but were originally bought from the dollar spot at Target last year :-)

This next card was super simple to put together because this stamp set called "Get Well"  gives you the adorable image and sentiment. Sometimes you just don't have a lot of time to put a card together for someone and this set is the answer!!  I colored this little bug with some colored pencils (raided my little boys stash) and put it together in about 10 minutes :-)

Here are a couple more projects that I have "sneaked" in the last couple of weeks just in case you missed them!

This project used the March Stamp of the Month called "Love Today".

Here is another using the "Lucky" half pint set...

Your next stop on the hop is Lisa from Pretty Papers, Pretty Ribbons.

After the hop, make sure you head on over to Pink by Design Store to pick up all of your favorites!!  DON'T FORGET.. U-Stream is tonight at 7:30CST! Click HERE to go directly to it :-)

Thanks for hopping with us today!

Not a card Friday: Sweet Treat

Happy Friday!
We are continuing our sweet theme over at Pink by Design.  Today I made a fun milk carton candy holder from the silhouette store.  I found the cherries in the store also and added some peachy keen faces to them to sweeten them up a bit!  The sentiment is from a "soon to be released" set next Friday at Pink by Design!!

This would make a simple but sweet gift for anyone!!  Don't forget to enter our Sweet Challenge.  You have until tomorrow at 11:59p.m. CST.  One lucky person will win a $10 gift card to Pink by Design!!  Click HERE to go to the challenge :-)

Have a sweet day!
