Love Notes - Part 2

I gave my husband the Red Roses Love Note...on Friday. He was so awesome this week helping out...and being just soo sweet. I slipped it in his laptop case...I even slipped it into the laptop to be sure he found it...afterall he would NEVER not use his laptop ;-)
So now I'm posting the other two little Love Notes...aka Love ATCs.

The Miss you in Pink is made with White and Pastel Pink Cardstock. I used the Creative Memories Friendship punch to make the flower and a 1/8" circle punch to make the hole...the stem is 1/8" strip of white cardstock. Miss You is stamped with Palette Noir.
The second card is made with Bright Green Cardstock...I made the flowers the same way...and put a 3mm rhinestone in the center for some extra bling. I stamped "Hello I love you" with a TAC set (sorry I got it in a grab bag, so I have no idea what set it was)...with Palette Chartreuse.

Little Love Notes

Well I've been bitten by the ATC bug...I really liked the 3X3s but these are even MORE fun!
My husband has been working a lot lately and traveling...so I've been missing...and not JUST for evening kid duty ;-)
I plan to sneak them into his briefcase or lunch...and funny part he NEVER reads this blog so I don't even have to worry about spoiling the surprise!
So the Red Roses Love You was made with DCWV Stack 3 Rose paper and the sentiment is PaperTrey Faux Ribbon. I tried to do the paper piercing...but it moved and my line was crooked, well taking a creative opportunity I decided to unearth my Majestic Scissors...and cut around it.
The Tri-Color friend was inspired by a card on SCS...I had this SU! stamp that was solid...so decided to use my Kaleidacolor Caribbean Sea stamp pad...I LOVE these spectrum pads...so bright and fun. I used the Friend circle stamp as well...which looks like I hand colored each circle...but no it was just the ink pad! The paper is from my trusty DCWV Stack 3...boy do I use it alot (okay it is on top...and I'm trying to be less of a paper hoarder). The sentiment "miss you" is from TAC and came in a grab bag so I have NO idea what set it is from...it is stamped in Palette Noir.

Latest Creation...Earring Cards

As you all know I am highly addicted to the paper bead Jewelry. I just had an order come in, but I didn't have any jewelry boxes. I tried to see if anyone on Freecycle had any, no luck. So I had to come up with something...well better than just jumbling it in a cello bag.

Earring Cards!



These two items over on SplitCoast (and a set of Snowman Earrings) were my inspiration.


I apologize for the blurry picture...I had to get these out the door and my lighting was terrible. Anyway, the card is ATC size (2.5"X3.5") although mine is folded over. I used white cardstock for the base then used my Mega Oval punch (god I wish I had the scalloped oval...sigh) to punch a bright green background out of The Paper Company Brights Green. I used a small bow embellishment to hook the earrings to and use glue dots to secure on the card. The paper earrings and the striped strip at the bottom are from the DCWV Stack 3 collection. The caption "for you" is from the TAC All Occasion set and stamped with Palette Claret in the bottom right corner.
