Are you still loving the new Mini Catalog?  Lurve!!

GORGEOUS.

I am in LOVE with hybrid MDS projects - especially when you put it on wood.  L O V E!!

Painting on wood is SO easy!!  I only paint 1 coat of paint and then sand the edges.

 

Love Love Love you Block = 4" x 6".

Love Letters Block = 4.125" x 3".

To create your stands, here is the formula:

Circle base + candlestick base + hybrid block + knob.

Is it a knob?  I don't know what it really is.

Cute.  Yes, just cute topper.

ABC i {heart} u = 3" x 2".
Wood glue is your best friend.

  

Yeah, I'm in love with the little envelopes.  I might have made 20 a few.

Artisan Wednesday WOW *i miss you already*

Holla!!  It's January.  I feel like time is going SO fast!!  It'll be summer before we know it!  Anyway...  Are you loving the new Mini Catalog?

GORGEOUS.

Hi.  Hello.  I am in love with the new wooden embellishments AND the word bubble framelits.
L.O.V.E.

 
 

I created these adorable hearts using my Silhouette Cameo.  Here is how you can create the same thing:

1. Create a rectangle that will be the size you'd like your top layer to be cut.  Mine is 3.25" x 4.75".
2. Import the heart from the Bookstagram MDS download into your program.
3. Resize your heart to be .25" wide.
4. Open your trace window
5. Click Select Trace Area
6. Then click Trace Outer Edge
   You should have a red outline around your heart.
   You can move your black heart out of the way.
7.  Click the red outline of the heart and create several duplicates.  I just placed them randomly all over the square.  I made sure to have some hearts go outside of the square too.
8. Click the Select arrow on your toolbar.
9. Draw a square around your rectangle with hearts in it.
10. Your rectangle and all the hearts should have outlines around them.
11. Click the Open the Modify Window.
12. Click the Subtract option.
13. Your screen should look like this:
14. Now you can cut your project.

If you saw this post earlier you're probably thinking,"Wasn't there some twine on this card that looked like a guppy fish?"  Yes, there was, but I had to fix it.  I just couldn't stand it. Yay!

Are you wondering what I did with all the cute little hearts that were cut out?  They're on the inside of the card, of course.

Artisan Wednesday Wow

Welcome to the March, Wednesday Artisan Blog Hop!  Check back every Wednesday to see new projects that 10 Stampin' Up! Artisan's have created.  Did you just come from Heidi's blog?  That girl has got some MAD skills!  I love everything she creates!

This is my facebook project for the Stampin' Up! Artisan board:

I usually craft with the motto that “more is better.”  Sometimes more isn’t always better.  I like how this scrapbook page doesn’t have a lot of elements yet it has enough.  I feel like every part of the page stands out and supports the photo of my goofy nephew.  I love banners.  I love hexagons.  Put them together on one page?  Perfect.

If you haven’t purchased MDS 2+ yet, get it now.  You can recreate this entire page with the MDS 2+ content and then get the Sale-A-Bration Lemonade Stand Digital Disc for FREE!

 

{Close up of the banner.  Luh-huh-huve this!}

Digital Program:  MDS 2+
Digital Stamps:  SAB Lemonade Stand - Honeycomb, Hooray, Heart
Digital Papers:  SAB Lemonade Stand, SAB Sycamore Street
Digital Background:  Downtown Grunge - Downtown Grunge - 4

Digital Embellishments:  Staple & Stitching - White - Simple Stitches Circle 1, Downtown Grunge - Frame 4
