Valentine's Treat w/ Muse Amelia

Today I've got a fun Valentine's Day treat for you! I found these cute little test tubes in the $1 bins at Michael's.

 

 

 I didn't know what I was going to do with them but I knew I just had to make something! This is what I came up with! 

 

 

Adorable! Right!? I found a great tutorial on how to make the holders over at Splitcoast Stampers. Then I used some of Moxxie's Grid Iron and Tiny Dancer lines to make it all pretty. 

 

 

**I followed the directions on where to score and cut to create the box but did NOT begin to actually glue it all together until I had finished decorating it first! 

 

I cut a strip of designer paper about 1/8" to a 1/4" smaller than back of the box and used my corner round edge punch and did a bit of distressing on it before I adhered it down to my box. Then I cut out a strip to wrap around the middle of the box part and distressed it a bit too. I tied together two small pieces of pink & brown bakers twine and stapled them down to the box. I punched out a cute little heart of Moxxie's Tiny Dancer line and layered on a Mambi sticker- love, using 3d-dots for dimension.

 

 

On the test tube measured around the test tube cut a strip of designer paper the length and width I needed. Leaving about 1/2" extra on the length to overlap. Before wrapping it around I found the middle of my strip punched a heart out and taped a small piece pink paper behind so the pink would peek through the punched out heart. Then I traced around it with a bronze Sharpie. Once I adhered the strip around the test tube I used some more pink & brown bakers twine to tie around.

 

 

Such a fun little treat for someone special! 

Thanks for stopping by! :)

 

 

 

Moxxie Product I Used:

GridIron

GI- 1469 Football

Tiny Dancer

TD- 1504 Shine

Pretty in Pink w/ Muse Amy

So MOXXIE sent me sample of their great new lines and I had pictures that were perfect for all of them...except Tiny Dancer which is all pretty and pink. As the mom of two sons and having no dance experience myself, I had nothing. Of course I could have just used the yummy colors for a friend's baby page or girls night out page or a sweet card. But then the same day I got my box of pretty papers from MOXXIE, my uncle brought over a box of old photos from Grandpa's and look- the perfect pink  tiny dancer!

This is my sister-in-law at age 6 in 1983. I do love a little girl in a tutu, don't you. The papers were so easy to use and the page really made itself. I doodled on some borders and added a bit of fluff and shine. The pretty papers make these old pictures sparkle!

Winner, winner, winner!

Tiny Dancer & Springtime!

Today is our last day showcasing the booth pictures from #cha2015 along with some of the wonderful samples the Muses made. We will start you off with Tiny Dancer.

You are going to love the projects we have for you!

 

 

This gorgeous layered Tiny Dancer card is by Muse Joan Liddle. She did a fabulous job layering all the different papers in the line for a beautifully delicate feel. I love the little dancer sticker as the focus.

 

 Not Born to Dance layout by Muse Jen Taylor. All of the beautiful layers, details and cute photos on this layout scream little dancer which makes the title that much more fun. Some of just want to do something else right? So cute and clever.

 

This next card needs 2 photos to really give you an idea of the creativity put into it:

Little Star card by Muse Amelia Harris has some really great layers and distressing. I also love the twine and enamel dots, but here's the best part...

 

When you open this pretty card up, the little dancer inside twirls for you!
How clever is that?
Amelia has a tutorial for this card up on her blog for you.

 

Last but not least is the Springtime line!

This line is gorgeous!

 

The colors are perfect for waking you back up after a long dull dreary winter. Don't you just love the butterflies and those cute little birds?!

Discover layout by Muse Ange Weisbeck

This line was perfect to celebrate the joy my son experienced meeting all the little baby animals at a nearby farm a few years ago. I had a lot of fun cutting out and popping up all of the gorgeous butterflies in the line and I love all of the color!

 

You can enter to WIN one of these fabulous new lines!

Jan. sketch challenge w/ Muses Wendi & Daniella

Today we are showing you an adorable layout and gorgeous card.

 

My Star by Muse Wendi Robinson

Wendi used Dance to highlight her sweetie out on the dance floor. Wendi does a lot of distressing with many layers. She also did some sewing around the page to add a fun border. I love the circles Wendi added to the layout.

 

 The Night Before Christmas Card by Muse Daniella Hayes

Daniella did a fabulous job turning this sketch into a card using the gorgeous Winterland line. She made the snowflake herself, then blinged it up by adding some gold glitter. I love the addition of gold.

 

Here's another look at the sketch. It really could be used for almost anything.

Don't forget to link up HERE.
See you here tomorrow for another great project.
