HAVING FUN WITH PINWHEELS!!

So I got a little creative today, FINALLY!!!!

Did NOT CASE this from anyone, it actually came out of my own brain!  Created by Mo & Jo!!

As always, click on the picture to make it bigger!!

Also the two pinwheels are made using the same DSP piece of paper, but I reversed one, hence the different patterns.

Stamp Set:  Wishes Your Way

Cardstock:  Retired DSP Love Impressions, Real Red, Whisper White

Ink:  Real Red

A LITTLE PURSE

Yes, I went a little Valentine crazy yesterday because I was going to see my grandkids and wanted to give them a treat, hence the 3 posts of Valentine Holders.

Again, I used retired DSP but since it's for the grandkids, they don't care!  I made this for the oldest grandaughter who just turned 5!  She loved it!  Yay!

I used the big heart punch, red glimmer paper, retired DSP and the Bigz Petite Purse die.  Fun and easy! 

MORE VALENTINE TREAT HOLDERS

I first found this idea on a blog from someone in Germany, so I had to translate it and redo the calculations from metric to inches.  BUT one day on Pinterest I found a tutorial in English by Dawn Tidd!!  Yay!!  Here is the link to her tutorial.

I printed the tutorial (not a video) and viola!, here is what I made.  I had fun making these!

 Don't forget you can click on these pictures to make them bigger.

Yes, the first one is retired DSP from last year, but when making these for the grandkids, they don't care!

I used the Textured Impressions Embossing Folder, Adorning Accents (the heart one)

A Hershey nugget would fit just right in the bottom!!

I wanted the red one on the right to have some DSP on the top, so I punch it out and put adhesive on it to give it a little more color.

Recipe:

Stamp:  Hostess Mixed Medley, Pretty Postage

Ink:  Real Red

Accessories:  Postage Stamp Punch, 1 1/4" scalloped circle punch, 3/4" circle punch, and for the top of them I used the Fancy Flower punch.  Make sure to pay attention to the tutorial to see how to punch it.

VALENTINE TWO TAG TREAT HOLDER

I cased this Two Tag treat holder from 

 Angie Juda aka Chic' n Scratch!  

Here is the link for her video tutorial.

I used retired DSP from last year, but since it was for my grandkids, they don't care if it's retired or not!

I attached little snack boxes of raisins inside.

Stamps sets:  Pretty Postage (24-7), Hostess Mixed Medley
