This is a Pinterest inspired card, oooooh I love that site! The watermark on it said Lin 2012, so thank you Lin for a great idea. Her birds were fall colors and so pretty.


I have this love hate relationship with Pinterest for this very reason...the original place this was pinned from has been lost through more and more pinnings, so although I'd love to give her credit, I have no idea where to find her. Same with a lot of my own things. Personally, I've never uploaded one of my own creations to Pinterest, but there are 100's of my things on there. I don't really mind as most of them do link back to my blog for original creator, but there are many, many that have lost that link and that makes me so mad!


Cardstock: Pink Pirouette, Pretty In Pink, Regal Rose, Melon Mambo, Whisper White
Stamp Set: On Your Birthday
Accessories: Elegant Bouquet Embossing Folder, Big Shot, Bird Builder Punch

Candy Dispensers

Every stampin' event needs a little chocolate, right? I found the pattern for these darling little candy dispensers HERE and knew instantly I needed one for each table.


Edited To Add: I've corrected the link so it goes to the exact page.


They are pretty tiny, only about 2-3/4" tall. I haven't filled them full yet, but I'm guessing each one will take about 1 cup of M&M's...I better take refills. * Ü*


The Stampin' Up! logo is from the free set we received at convention last year, Workshop Words. It is stamped in Early Espresso and is very clear and pretty - but not so much in these photos, sorry.

Still loving the Sale-a-bration paper, Everyday Enchantment!! I'm not ready fro it to leave! Only 9 days left to place your $50 order to get a free product. The Designer Series Paper and the Brad & Ribbon pack on these projects are both free choices!

Order your Sale-a-bration products HERE *Ü*

Paper Flowers

This month my Stamp Clubs made paper flowers - we had so much fun!

I had several e-mails asking if I was going to do a tutorial on them. I wasn't, but my intention was to kind of show you how I made them. Well, that isn't going to happen either! However, I did take some closer photos and I am going to tell you where I found the instructions for each flower. *Ü*



They almost look real, don't they?


The rose shown here in So Saffron and in the vase, Pink Pirouette, were kind of based on this tutorial HERE. I used the Island Floral die-cut.


This is a regular daisy and I have it shown here in Pink Pirouette and the vase in So Saffron. Directions for this one can be found HERE. I used the Daisies #2 die-cut.


This one is my favorite!! Shown above in Rose Red and in the vase in Whisper White, I mostly used the tutorial found HERE. I used the Daisies #2 die-cut.


The Perfect Plum was so fun to make, I used the Blossom Party die-cut. Cut 5 of them, fold 4 of them in half and half again and glue them all to the center of the flower that you did not fold. When dry, fluff them up with your fingers.



The wild looking green things were found HERE and the lily (I think) was kind of based on several I had seen but really used my own . It is made with the Island Floral die-cut and a tiny middle based on the wild green thing.


Try some, they are surprisingly easy!
