Don’t think because you have girls that you can’t use the Little Boys set! Especially if you have girls like mine who love to go outside to play!

I stamped the images on watercolor paper with waterproof ink, then used my inks like watercolors with a small brush.

I also used the Empty Alpha Lower stamp set for the title! TFL!

i love the fun playful look of the Tab It set. I used the cool corner stamp to make the border on my main photo. Just used a sticky note to mask it. And then stamped all the way around the photo. (Isn’t my little girl such a goof!)

I love these stamps! Great for outdoor pages!

Just a few things using the Block This, Says it All, Laugh Lines, and Family stamp sets!

A pretty simple page using Road Trip stamps and some ooooolllld scraps. I love the cool shapes of these fun letter stamps!! Perfect for the topic I was scrapping!

Used a new ink on this card…see that blue? It’s by Fiskars….and I named it!!! How’s that for cool!! It’s called “Blue Ribbon WInner” and it’s a gorgeous shade of pigment ink!! Used the Impact Upper stamp set to create the “soar” caption and then embossed it with clear emossing powder. The miscellaneous acrylic bird was embossed using a cuttlebug folder and highlighted with StazOn and Alcohol Inks.

I remember when cream used to come in this shaped container…do you? Here’s how to turn this shaped container into a rockin’ treat container, perfect for all occasions, boy birthday (shown above made using the “Little Boys” stamp set), girl birthday, baby shower….you name it! Just change the paper and stamping to match your theme!

Now I have seen these made from just heavy weight papers but for this one you will need a toilet paper roll (these are the perfect size..lol), stamps, ink, an exacto knife, detail scissors, strong adhesive, med. and small circle punch and a piece of paper approx. 4×6.5 inches.

1-Stamp design on your paper.
2-Cover roll with paper.
3-Apply adhesive strip along inside edge of one end, pinch vertically to seal. Fill with small treat candy’s.
4-Do same on other end, pinch horizontally to seal…voila’…a triangle shape!
4-If not using a toilet paper roll and just rolling a tube out of pp, you can crimp the ends slighly using a paper crimper, the toilet roll was too thick for my crimper. You can take a ruler and stylus and make crimping marks easy enough though if you wish!
5-Next take a craft knife and cut a small opening for treats to be removed from. Keep the opening smaller than the circle die cut you will be using to cover it!!
Punch a circle out of matching paper, stamp and embellish it and attach a smaller circle underneath the larger circle to use as a pulltab. Run adhesive around the edge only of the larger circle and attach over cut out hole.

I think I will be doing a bunch of these in a girlie theme for my daughters 10th birthday!

Okay, I’m not sure what I am going to use this for but it has so many uses!!!! To hold a small plant, for a house-warming gift, for clothes pegs, a container for a candy or home baked gift…..the possibilities are endless! I simply painted the pot first then stamped around the clay pot using the “Family” stamp set and a non smearing permanant ink, colored the images in the same fashion and then coated it all with mod podge! I had to snip apart the sentiment stamp so that the words would stay in a straight line and also had to take the little house off of that same stamp but I love the versatility of using them separately!

I just love the empty alpha upper! Such a fun font for titles! Here are a few pages I’ve done with it! I also used the Block This set letters and stylin’ around sets!
