Valentine Fox!

I'm so excited to be sharing my card with you today.

I just love this cute fox stamp!


It's from the Jaded Blossom Foxy stamp set. I also used the Rectangle Dies 1 and Rectangle Dies 2. And the sweet sentiment and little paw stamps are from Dog-Gone Awesome. I added some Doodlebug Sprinkles and the background paper is Recollections brand.

Can't wait to give this one away for Valentine's Day!

Stop by the Jaded Blossom blog or the Garden of Creativity for more ideas using 
the fun stamps and dies from Jaded Blossom.

Have a great Tuesday!

Blessings,

Jaded Blossom June Challenge!

The Jaded Blossom May Challenge is all about Celebrations!!!

We have lots of inspiration for the events in life that we like to celebrate and we hope you will join us for the challenge and show us the events you like to celebrate!

I enjoy celebrating birthdays, especially my own; but also birthdays for all my dear friends and family. So today I have a party hat to share with you that is perfect for that sweet 1st birthday picture!


I used Jaded Blossom's Star Dies, Mini Tag Dies 2, and Dog-Gone Awesome stamp set to decorate this sweet party hat from SVG Cuts. The rosette file from My Scrap Chick. The cardstock used for the hat is from DCWV's Nana's Kids paper stack. There is nothing more precious than a sweet baby celebrating their 1st birthday.

Don't forget to share with us through the month of May your special projects celebrating those you love!!! Can't wait to see them!

Blessings,

Rainbow of Crackers! Jaded Blossom May Challenge!

It's time for the Jaded Blossom May Challenge over on the JB Blog!

Join the Jaded Blossom team this month with the new challenge theme -
Food

Who doesn't love some food, right!!!

Here is my project:


I made a LO using the Scallop Square Dies, Stitched Square Dies, Alphabet Dies and the Spring Signs 2 stamp set from Jaded Blossom and the Rainbow of Crackers SVG file from Treasure Box Designs. How sweet would this be with pictures of a sweet toddler eating his goldfish and drinking his juice.


I wanted the tag for this sentiment to resemble the spills a toddler will make, so I also used the Paint Splatters stamp set. 

I hope you will join Jaded Blossom's "Food" Challenge this month. I can't wait to see your projects!!!

Thanks for stopping by!

Blessings,

And now for my project!


 

Well maybe I am a bit biased or I'm just bragging (which I definitely am), but I do have a Super Kid. He is just fantastic!!! And he has 5 things in life that keep him occupied - Legos (especially Star Wars Legos), Pokemon (Last count, I think we are near 500 collector cards), his sketchbooks/notebooks, Marvel Comic Heroes (especially Spiderman), and his cat. So this LO was super fun to make incorporating two of his favorites into it! If the boy sits down, the cat is in his lap always. They are truly best friends! The paper for this are from the Sandy Lion Marvel Comics Page Kit.

"A Super Kid" Layout


Ann did an awesome job on this LO making it so easy to put together. It usually takes me days to arrange a LO; but with this, I just had to cut and glue. So easy!!!

The "A Super Kid" Layout can be found HERE! Remember that it is deeply discounted for today only, so go and grab it!

The title on my LO is one of today's freebies:


It will only be "FREE" today, so make sure you grab this as well!

It is available HERE!

I also used some Jaded Blossom stamps on this to add the final touch. I used the Super Hero and Super Hero 2 stamp sets.


I love the above sentiment. It is so true. I'm not sure which is more of the Super Hero in the relationship between my son and his cat; but the sentiment below says it best!!! 


I also used the My Hero sentiment.


I hope you have enjoyed my project and I am so glad that you hopped on by. 

Next up is Cindy

Jaded Blossom April Release Blog Hop - Teacher Gifts!

Hey Everyone! 

Now if you're here from super talented Candace O., you're in the right place; but if you're just passing through, start at the beginning because you don't want to miss anything.  I also have the complete line up down at the bottom.

Here is what I made:


I just love this month's new School Dies. They are so super cute and I know I will be using them project after project, year after year for teacher gifts, lunch pail notes, and class treats. This is a set of dies that will never lose their usefulness!!!


To decorate these cute little boxes, I used the new School Dies, the new School Time Greetings, and the new School Designer Tapes! So fun and really easy to put together as this box just whips right up.



And what makes this project really easy is that I used a really cool one piece no glue box. And it fits on a piece of 8 1/2 x 11" cardstock. It measures 4" wide x 2 7/8" high x 1 1/2" deep. There is plenty of room in this little cutie to add a gift card, some candies, a letter or small card, and/or a small gift like hand sanitizer. It is the 3D No Glue Suitcase by Lori Whitlock and I picked it up in the Silhouette store. These will be teacher gifts for sure for Teacher Appreciation Week coming up soon. I hope you will give this project a try too!!!



Regular Price for the Release Package is $120.99


Remember you can get:

1 - Free 3x4 Stamp for customers that spend $40 or more before Taxes and Shipping! FREEBIE is only available until Sunday 4/17, 11:59pm pst.

School Rules! Jaded Blossom April Release Day 5!

Oh my goodness, it is already Day 5 of the Jaded Blossom April Release Sneaks and that means tonight it all goes live! Don't forget to come back and join us at 4 PM PST for the big Release Blog Hop. We will have several more fun projects to share with you!!!

But right now, we are showcasing School Designer Tapes
 and this month's freebie - Chalkboard!

Here is my project using School Designer Tapes and the School Dies from Monday's sneak!


The cute bag is called Box in Bag - Scallop Heart from SVG Cutting Files. I changed it up just a little bit, but either way it makes such a cute bag for adding little gifts to. 


The paper for the bag is an old collection from Basic Grey called Little Black Dress. I just loved this collection, but I think I may only have one 12x12 piece left from it and some scraps now. :(  But I was glad to find these two sheets in the stash when looking for papers for this project!!! I love the contrast with the red apple. The apple is from Treasure Box Designs' Little Gems Apple Kids cut file. To the apple, I added a designer tape and the School Rules sentiment from School Designer Tapes and the pencil and thumb tack from the School Dies. Then I finished it off with some black embellishments to tie it all together. I'm so happy with the way it turned out!!!


Here are photos of today's new stamp sets...

Remember, these will be available in the store tonight at 4 PM Pacific time.

Treasure Box Design's Howl-O-Ween Blog Hop

If you are looking for the winner of the Fall Thrills and Halloween Chills Blog Hop, it is one post down!

Yeah, today we have had a Facebook Hop going on. The Treasure Box Design Team got together and came up with lots of fangtastic projects using Halloween files from the Treasure Box Designs store.

You can head over to the Treasure Box Designs Facebook Page to start the hop. There are lots of fun prizes to be won at each stop and three grand prizes from Treasure Box Designs.

Here is my project:
    

I used the Little Gems Pumpkin Kids from Treasure Box Designs for my project. They are just adorable!!!


Both cards were made using Doodlebug Design's paper from the Ghouls and Goodies collection and the October 31 collection. For the banners, I used a Spellbinder's die and stamped them with a sentiment from Scrappy Mom's Stamps. To finish off the little girl, I used a bit of Trendy Twine to make bows for her shoes. The mouths were both stamped using Peachy Keen face stamps.


You still have a bit of time to join us for the hop. I hope to see you over on my FB page!!!

Blessings,
