Dresser Box

I am in love with this dresser from Silhouette. I've been wanting to do something creative with it for quite some time.  It was designed by the talented  Samantha Walker.  I decided to stay in my comfort zone and use soft pinks, blues, and a pop of red. I wanted it to have a shabby vintage feel to it. 

I  used pearls for the drawer handles and a bit of doily peeking out of the top of the drawers.  The drawers are perfect for putting jewelry or some smaller trinkets for the recipient.  

I added a 3D Coreopsis flower  designed by Jamie Cripps. I gave it a bit of color by adding pink using Tim Holtz Distress Markers. 

I added a few leaves, string, berries, and a sentiment using an SRM sticker. 

It is going to be another busy weekend here.  I will be standing on the street corner to help raise money for Misericordia.  (The facility we are trying to get Cortney into).  I have a communion party for a close friend, piles of laundry, and maybe a bit of crafty time snuck in here and there.

Any plans this weekend?

Would love to hear what you are up to! 

HUGS my friends!

JustRite's New Release-Home Bakery Labels!

Are you ready for another cute release by JustRite? 

This set is absolutely perfect for any sweet treats you give as gifts, or a card to accompany it, or how about a scrapbook page related to food?  You know you are one of those people who takes your camera or I-phone to restaurants to take pictures of your food! (Please tell me I'm not the only one who does that!) 

It is called, Home Bakery Labels, and was designed by Samantha Walker. 

I found this oven cupcake box on the Silhouette store (I can't link because my virus software is telling me the site is suspicious?)and thought they would make a perfect pair!

I decided to go retro with a pink and blue theme.

I assembled the box and added brads for the dials and such. 

I stamped the sentiments in Hawaiian Shores (Papertrey Ink) on cream paper and cut them out with Spellbinder's dies.  I stamped the mini cupcakes and cut them out.  I layered a second layers of frosting using a dimensional foam circle and added glitter. I stamped the rolling pin and cut that out too. :) They were layered over the center of my satin bow.  

The box opens to reveal the yummy cupcake inside! I wish I could tell you that I was talented enough to bake something so pretty.....but I can not tell a lie.  It is a store bought cupcake. ;)

Here is the set in in its entirety.  So many fun possibilities with this set!

Don't forget to stop by the other designer's blogs!

They are a talented group with lots of fun projects to share!

Samantha Walker-Dainty Doilies

Welcome to Day 2 of JustRite's new release!  

Today's set is called Dainty Doilies and was designed by Samantha Walker.  I love the look of Doilies! They are delicate, feminine, and perfect for my style!I created a background using varying stamps from the set. Once it was stamped, I cut the card stock and rounded the corners.  I inked the edges with brown Memento ink. 

I added a flower that was cut using my Silhouette.  I added pearls to the center and added a few leaves cut from the Bitty Blossoms Die set from Spellbinders. The sentiment is part of Samantha Walker's Buntings and Banners set. 

Be sure to visit the other designers to see their gorgeous projects!

What a great few days it's been!  Today is the last day to purchase Samantha Walker products at 25% off, so be sure to pop on over to JustRite! 

Hey, does this card look familiar? ;)  I stamped the joy snowflakes in various colors to make my own background.  I inked the edges a bit to distress them and matted it on a chocolate brown piece of card stock.  I stamped the sentiment on vellum, tied seam binding around the card and added a felt snowflake.  As a finishing touch I added several sequins. 

Be sure to visit the other gals! 

 Have a great Sunday my friends!

Samantha Walker Christmas Release-Holiday Magic!

I hope you've enjoyed the last 2 days of our JustRite/Samantha Walker blog hop!  It was so much fun to see what everyone created from both teams! We are going to continue showing you more Samantha Walker with some of her brand new releases!  Today's set is called Holiday Magic.  It is such a fun happy set!  I was so inspired by the coloring on her packaging that I used it on my card.  I stamped the Christmas tree 4 times with some slight overlapping.  

I added coordinating pearls and stamped believe in black.  I added a bit of silk ribbon, twine, and jingle bells.  But for me this is pretty much a CAS card! ;)

Here is the entire set! Super cute right?

Be sure to visit our DT and see what they've created today!

Samantha Walker Blog Hop Day Two!

Good morning and happy Friday to you!  Today is day 2 of the Samantha Walker/JustRite Blog Hop! 

Today's card uses a fabulous background stamp called, Fragrant Garden. I wanted each part of the stamp to be a different color, so I used my Tim Holtz Distress Markers and used the "Direct to Rubber" technique.  The beautiful part of these markers is once you are done applying your color, you can remoisten them by "huffing" on them. 

For my card I stamped the image twice and hand cut the frame portion to create a shadow box effect. I added a few sequins to pull the orange color out a bit.

I used the Bitty Blossoms Spellbinder's dies to create my orange flowers and added the little blue posies from my stash. 

Here is the set I used. :)

Be sure to visit both design teams for more wonderful inspiration!

Samantha Walker Blog Hop!

Good morning! What an exciting day today is! The JustRite gals have teamed up with the gals from the Samantha Walker Design Team to highlight Samantha's gorgeous stamps! For my card today, I used Samantha's Pattern Basics set.  I stamped the diamond pattern twice using Versamark ink and embossed it in white on kraft card stock. I used my Tim Holtz Distress markers to color each diamond in.  A trick when coloring each diamond is to outline the left side of the diamond, then take your water brush and "drag" the color into the center. This gives areas of dark and light to add depth to the card. I cut out the diamond shape  and adhered it to another panel of kraft card stock.  The edges were inked in a bit of white. 

Pearls were added to dress it up a bit.  I also colored a Recollections wooden flower with the markers, hand cut 3 leaves, and added that to the sentiment.  Speaking of the sentiment, the thank you is from Samantha's French Frills set.  It was also embossed in white and cut into a strip to add to the the front of the card. 

The inspiration continues with both design teams!  Be sure to hop on over to these talented girls' blogs!

JustRite's New Release Day 3!

Good morning and happy weekend to all of you!  

I have another brand new JustRite set for you today designed by Samantha Walker.  It is called Doilies and Lace. I love the look of doilies...they are so wonderfully soft and girly! 

I found this super cute cut over at the Silhouette Store.  I love shaped cards and this one fit the bill perfectly!

I stamped various doilies from the set in white, green, and yellow embossing powders.  (Zing)  I cut each one out individually and stacked them using dimensional foam circles. This created my large flower that became my focal point. I added a bit of glitter to the edges, pink seam binding, and a rhinestone. 

Here is the entire set.........so lovely!

Be sure to visit the other talented designers for more inspiration using this set!

JustRite's May Release-Day 5!

Good morning! 

 Today's brand new JustRite set is all about the boys!  It is an adorable set designed by Samantha Walker called, All Boy. I stamped the boat in a pale blue, the sentiment in black,  and added a bit of Stickles to give it a subtle sparkle.  The baby romper cut is by Silhouette.  I added bitty baby buttons and threaded them with turquoise thread. 

The image was cut out using Spellbinder's circle and scalloped circle die.  I added a few epoxy pearls to finish it off. 

This is such a cute set!  It is great for card making, but would also be perfect for scrapbooking all of those boy pages! :)

Be sure to pay the other designers a visit!

Little Box.....

Sometimes great things do come in small packages right? How about this little box created from the Spring/Summer Tablescapes cartridge?  It is a perfect size for a jewelry box!  And tell me, what girl doesn't like receiving jewelry? ; )  I added a sentiment using JustRite's Samantha Walker Botanical Swirls and Label's set. I added a glass gem to magnify it.      

 I added a crocheted doily, some pink antennae, glitter, and a great big silk bow from Sharon Johnson's Stamp Simply Store. 

I'm going to keep it short and sweet today......I'm off to get ready for work!

Hope your Tuesday is fabulous!!
