Witch's Brooms

I wasn't going to give candies out this year, but I couldn't resist when I saw the Witch's brooms on p. 29 of the catalog and then these recycled paper Witch's brooms are popping up everywhere on the Internet.  I modified mine to have Dum-Dums so it's less sugar.  Whenever I have to mass produce, I simplify.  They also look like flowers when you turn them up.

Stamps:  Teeny Tiny Wishes and Spooky Bingo Bits

Ink:  Rich Razzleberry and Basic Black classic ink pads

Accessories:  Scallop Circle Bigz die, 1-3/4" circle and 2-3/8" scallop circle punches, linen thread, Dum-Dums, Paper Snips and Sharpie marker

Have a great day!

Angry Birds Nugget Holder II

This is a quick post to show another Angry Birds Nugget Holder.  I didn't have enough time to finish them and pop them into the kid's birthday party favor bags. I tend to simplify things when I mass produce and it's another version based on the image I found on the Internet. 

I use the cut materials, however, to do a quick demo kit on the go while I was in Southern California.  It was fun and everyone enjoyed making it!

Pinwheels

I saw the idea of pinwheels on Stampin' Success, a magazine exclusive for SU! demonstrators, and had to make some for my niece's wedding.  You might have seen them on the ground surrounding the Sweet Table at her wedding on this post. 

They are actually supposed to be used as photo props, but they were cute there too!  Here are the Bride and Groom.  Congratulations to the newly weds!  Here's to happy memories and many years of happiness!

My kids love them, too.  It was hot that day so everyone ended up loosen up their clothes like them! :)

Here is my model, Gianna, at a different location.

When all the Cake Pops are gone, they got propped on the grass bed.  I use the Flower Folds Die and 2-1/2" and 1-3/4" Scallop Circle punches for the center.

I had trouble fastened them to the dowels and my husband came to my rescue with this idea.  He removed part of the dowel and suggested I use some plastic washers in between.  Brilliant idea!  Thanks, Honey!  They are can spin too.

Bride and Groom Wedding Card

I made this wedding card for my niece and her husband.

I found the template on Lynn Pratt's website and pretty much CASE it!  I change a few things to match with the wedding color and theme.  Ignore the buttons as I decided to add it on the jacket instead.  No adhesive residue left behind thanks to the Adhesive Remover!

I also embossed the envelope flap to match the dress.

Sweet Table

I made the banner to decorate the Sweets table for my niece's wedding.

Here are some close-up pictures of the "Life Is Sweet" banner on an olive tree.  I use the Perfect Pennant Die for this and I wish it was bigger!

Another best part of the Sweets table?  This incredibly beautiful Cake and Cake Pop Stand built by my brother-in-law, Lich Vu, Vy Passetti's dad.  You can see more of Vy's beautiful cake pops here.

Here are the Bride and Groom cutting their cake.

Candy Labels

I made these candy labels for my niece's wedding and propped them on samples of corks as holders for the bride's selection.  We ended up using the one with the Soft Suede Polka Dots ribbon as seen here.

Here they are at the Wedding on the wood stumps.  I wished I had known what the containers look like, I would have made some differently, but even the bride was not sure!

My favorite treats are these Billy Ball Cake Pops on the grass bed container designed by Vy Passetti.

Embossed Wedding Card

My talented sister, Michelle, can knock down anything in the house and rebuild/remodel it, but she has no patience for making cards!  She asks me to make her a card for my niece's wedding.  So here is what I made for her.  It is similar to another card  I saw on Stampin' Connection or somewhere on the Internet awhile ago.

I used the Elegant Bouquet Embossing Folder, Teeny Tiny Wishes, and lots of pearls!  I also embossed the envelope flap with the same EF.  She loves it!

Food Labels and Corks

I decide to enter these Corks as Food Label Holders in the Late Night Stampers Challenge 180 - Go Green with Recycled Items.  It's my first time to enter a challenge ever!

I saw the idea of corks being used as place card holders on the Internet.  I made mine slightly different to hold these food labels for the wedding.  One side of the buffet table has food label holders with double wine corks as shown above and the other side has single champagne cork as shown below.  I cut a slit in the middle.  I also use tacky glue and let it dry so it will temporarily stick down to the linen.

Wedding Place Cards

Today is my niece's wedding.  I made a few of these place cards as samples for her wedding before some of the stamp sets are announced retired.  They are very clean and simple, but she loves this style.

I ended up making 200 of the one in orange flower using the Clearly for You stamp set with Natural Ivory card stock.  The Table Setting Stampin' Up! Bigz Xl Die is still on the Clearance Rack for more than 50% off.

Update:  It was such a beautiful wedding!  Here are a few photos of the place cards and the table setting.  I'll be back with more photos in the next few posts.

Bridal Shower Favors & Tags

 

These gum holders are the same idea as the one from this post here. The Eclipse gum package has changed a little bit since then.

These favors are for a Bridal Shower.  They look so different under shaded umbrellas!

Since it's a Mimosa Bar, I also created some tags.

They look great on the juice bottles!

They did a great job with the food and decorations!  Click on Read More to see details of the food!

College Graduation Cards

I made these two cards fast - completely CASE them from Dawn Olchefske here.  Thanks, Dawn!  I used the Perfect Pennant Die, Stripe Embossing Folder, a couple of square punches, the new Itty Bitty Banners stamp set and Bitty Banners Framelits Dies from Stampin' Up!.

We went down to Southern California last week to celebrate our 2 nephews' graduations.  Congratulations, Patrick and Minh!  While we were there, we decided to visit Mickey Mouse.  It was late when we finally found Mickey.  Here is Jake with Woody from The Toys Story.

This is the first time my kids went to Disneyland and they were really excited!  The new Cars Land at California Adventures were absolutely amazing.  They recreate the whole scene from the CARS movie like real!  The down falls?  Extremely long lines to get to the ride!  It was worth it though.  Lightning McQueen was absolutely shiny and charming! :)

Have a wonderful day!

MDS - Angry Birds Favors

We had such a wonderful time with the kids' Birthday party!  The weather was beautiful for miniature golfing and playing arcades afterwards.  Here are the boys with their cake.  It seemed like I only turned around for a few seconds and an earthquake hit the cake!  Happy Bird-day, boys! :)

Here is a picture of the favors for the younger kids.  Most of these are made with labels I generate from My Digital Studio (MDS).

The older kids get a little bit different favors.

Each kid gets an Angry Birds cake pop designed by Vy Passetti.  They were a big hit at the party.  Thanks, Vy!

MDS - Angry Birds Hugs and Kisses

I create some Angry Birds coloring books with book rings for the little kids.

I love the last page.  They finally found a pig that they like!

Even these Angry Birds will finally be Happy Birds.  They will give Piglet many Hugs and Kisses!  This is not my original idea, but I generate the labels myself from My Digital Studio (MDS).

MDS - Angry Birds Sling Shots

I bought these sling shots from Oriental Trading for the older kids, but there are no balls in them!  I got a tip from Lorri Heiling to either use the whiffle balls that she used or ping pong balls.  Thanks, Lorri!  So I found these table tennis balls to be a little bit more sturdier.  This way I can add these cut Angry Birds faces that I generate from My Digital Studio (MDS).  I also added a label for each sling shot.

I added Mod Podge on top to protect the images on the balls
