Spritzed Valentine -- With Love

I bought some Stampin Up Spritzers a while ago and have been looking at them with loads of intention!  Every time I go to pull them out I get sidetracked on to something else.  Considering that it only took me 5 minutes to make this card I really have no idea why I waited!

I used rubbing alcohol and Real Red re-inker.   I placed a heart a piece of whisper white card stock and then sprayed the paper with the Spritzer and as you can see it created a really great effect once I removed the heart.
 
I used some retired Basic Black Ribbon and added a black heart covered in rhinestones! 
 
 
Let me know what you think!
 
Have a great Day!!!

Happy Birthday Charity!

Yesterday was my good friend and neighbour's Birthday!  Every year we exchange coffee cards on our birthdays!  I love Starbucks and she is a Tim Horton's girl.  I wanted to make a card that is coffee themed.  There is a great set from the Sale-a-bration flyer called "Patterned Occasions"  with a wonderful little "whole latte love" stamp.  I added the "On your Birthday" and made the card a 3x6.   I used mainly  Regals and Brights for the colors and that is new for me as I rarely use the Regals!


 
Inside I added a little folder to hold the Tim Hortons Card. She loved the card and the gift but that is not surprising as she is one of the sweetest people I know! 
 
Happy Birthday my Friend!
 
 
 
Don't you just love this stamp!  The "Patterned Occasions" set is super cute and you can earn if for FREE until March 22 with the Sale-a-Bration special that is no now!
 
 
Have a great Day!!!

Valentines Sliding Treat Holder - Tutorial

I have been thinking about how to give my kids some cute Valentines gifts this year and one of my ideas was a Pez dispenser.  I came up with this sliding treat holder.   Hope you like it! :)



Supplies

Real Red Card Stock
Adhesive|
Heart Punch or Framelit
Stamps, Ribbon, DSP
Paper Cutter


You will need the following sizes of Real Red for the base.

5 1/4" x 4 3/8"

6 3/4" x 3 1/2"

1" x 10"


Score the 5 1/4" x 4 3/8" piece at
1/2, 1 3/4, 2 7/8, 4 1/8 on the long side.

Score the 6 3/4" x 3 1/2" piece at
1 1/4 on all sides.

Score the 1" x 10" at every inch.

Once you have the pieces scored you can assemble them as you see to the right.

Hint -- Decorate the outer 5 1/4 x 4 3/8 sleeve before you glue that piece together.










This is the inside piece.  Using the long 10" x 1" piece I created slots for my candies.  I adhered this in to the open box 6 3/4 x 3 1/2 piece.







For the top piece or the "pull" I used a small scrap piece of Real Red measuring 1/4" x 3".  I then folded it into a W (scoring at about 1, 1 1/2 and 2.





I glued this small piece on to the top of my insert and made sure to fold part of it into the top as you see to the right so it would not just pop off when you pulled on it.
From a different angle you can see the small lip I created to attach the heart to.
I have no idea why I took this picture upside down but I forgot to flip it in editing so there you go!  The Hearts attach to the small lip, one on either side.









Below is the finished product.  You just fill with treats (I used Kisses) and give to your Valentine!
