Got Moxxie?

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! :)

Lucky in Love w/ Muse Ange

Hello there! Today I have a fun layout for you. 

This handsome man is my husband, he was trying on some different outfits for a harlam shake video a bunch of his friends were putting together. This is not the outfit he went with but I did manage to get a picture or two before he changed. Honestly I didn't think he would ever let me use this photo, but I've got some pretty awesome persuasive skills. ;)

 

 

I had a ton of fun putting this layout together with all these fun St. Patrick's Day papers! I started with a sketch from MS&M, made my own clover stencil out of paper scraps and used it while misting my layout background. It ended up looking so nice with all the mist on it that I included it on the layout!

 

 

Add a little bling, this fun rub-on from the Valentine line and some doodling and you wouldn't even know I only made it for stenciling.

 

 

For my title area I layered and stacked different stickers and rub-ons from this awesome St. Patrick's Day line. Easy and fun!

Thanks for stopping by today!

Sunday Valentine's Day Cards with Mary Pat

Happy Sunday!

Valentine's Day is just around the corner ( I know I can't believe it either). I love to make special cards for my loved ones and today I have two of them to share with you.  I used the How do I love thee? collection.  This is an oldie but a goodie collection.  

For this card I used the paper along with the awesome rub ons and cardstock stickers. 

Next, I have a tag card.

Once again I used the rub ons and cardstock stickers for this.  

I have made a quick video for you today on the techniques that I used to make these cards.  I hope you enjoy it!

 

Thanks so much for stopping by today.  I will be back next month with a new sketch and projects!  See you then.  Have a wonderful and crafty day!

Valentine Combo!

Hello Moxxie fans!  It's Misty here with an ADORABLE gift cardholder, along with a CUTE Valentine's card.  I know sometimes I dislike giving "just" a gift card to someone, but why not make one of these quick and easy gift card holders. 

Anyone would LOVE to get one of these little creations, along with a gift card from there favorite LSS!  This cute little envelope die, tag dies and stamps are all from A Jillian Vance Designs.  l highly recommend taking some time and checking out their website if you are a stamp and die lover...there are some CUTE ones!!  

I also created a card to go with this gift card holder.  I used one of the NEW sketches from Simple Sketches:

 Here is my card that I created:

This card is so fun and simple!  Both the card and the gift card holder was made using Moxxie's "How I Love Thee" Valentine collection.  I love the bright and bold colors and how that black makes the pattern paper POP!!  The white stitching, swirls and dots, are all doodling that I did with a white pen!  I LOVE the way doodling looks but sometimes I forget to do it!

Thank you for stopping by and I hope this inspires you how to creatively give your loved one or friends their next gift card!

Blessings & Hope...
Misty
