Jaded Blossom Challenge 3 flowers

Happy Mother's Day! I hope all the moms out there are having a great day!

I made my mom a card using a file I bought from myscrapchic.com. It was the first file I bought to use with my Cameo. I admit--I didn't fall head over heels in love with the Cameo at first. BUT after this project I have to admit- I really like how this turned out and it was not as hard as I thought it would be :0)
I am going to post this card to the Jaded Blossom Challenge for this month. You need to use three flowers-check and a Jaded Blossom stamp-check!! I used the Miscellaneous Fun stamp set. I hope you enjoy my card :0) thanks for stopping by and don't forget to post your challenge! :0)

Jaded Blossom Customer Hop!



Welcome to the Jaded Blossom Customer Hop! Thanks everyone who has arrived from Jaded Blossom!

I am excited about this hop! Candace & Michelle have the best line of stamps! They are SO fun! I have used them on almost everything I have created since the first set of stamps were released!

They also carry paper straws, a flag die (that is my FAVORITE crafty tool!), 1x8 bags & boxes for favors, candy wands, cone bags, clear favor boxes and a such great MADE IN THE USA stamps!

I have to admit--I made a lot of projects for this hop! LOL. I narrowed it down to......



I used Wedding Wishes for the dress and the sentiment. I embossed the dress with white detail embossing powder and it came out just STUNNING! I love the white on the black paper! This stamp is AMAZING--the detail and how crisp it came out. Believe it or not I did this on the first try!

Next up is my Momma's Birthday present! Her birthday was yesterday.



 It was so easy to dress up this box of chocolates for her with some tull, the flag die(that I LOVE) and a Happy Birthday from the Make a Wish stamp set! :0)

I can't tell you how much fun I have with these stamps! I can't sleep the night before a release because I am so excited to see the next set of stamps!

THANK YOU SO MUCH for stopping on my blog today to see what I have created with the Jaded Blossom stamps--------now are you ready for the SUPER AWESOME BLOG CANDY that you can win?

Jaded Blossom is offering Echo Park paper, Twine AND new treat boxes that are not even released yet!! (awesome!) Make sure that you COMMENT on EACH blog in the hop! There will be three winners chosen randomly! How cool is that?

BUT WAIT--there's more!!!!!! There are FREE DIGIS! Go grab them at Jaded Blossom if you haven't already!


I love this stars & stripes owl! I used the Miscellaneous Fun Stamp set to create the blue star paper, and the sentiment. I (of course) used--the flag die topped off with some Trendy Twine. I used Spellbinders for the red & white labels. The little flag didn't quite fit in the label size I wanted to use-so I just cut it out and put it on top of the die so it wouldn't get chopped off :0) worked out pretty good!

Thank you for hopping along today!! Please remember to leave a comment on all the blogs for your chance to win!! Now head back over to Jaded Blossom for your next stop!

Sending some smiles

Hey there! I am excited to share with you a card I made using Jaded Blossom's April release. My crafty friend Trish asked if I wanted to help with a card drive for a local nursing home. I love these stamps and couldn't think of a better reason to use them! Here is one of the cards I made.

I used Everyday Pop-up Cards cartridge (I think!?) for the butterfly
Jaded Blossom Flag Die (I use it on EVERYTHING!)
Jaded Blossom Bug a Boo April Release!

I Feel The Love - Emily

Hello everybody! I wanted to share the card I sent to the I Feel The Love Project this month. Each month Madison, at Funky Cards hosts a card drive for a recipient who is in need of a smile or some love sent to them by way of a homemade card. This month all the cards will be sent to a young lady named Emily. She loves the color purple and kitty cats so-here is the card I created for Emily.
I used:
 Create a Critter Cartridge for the Cat
Jaded Blossom-Flag Die! (which I love!!!)
Trendy Twine
Pink By Design stamp

I really enjoy making cards for the I Feel the Love project each month because it allows me to use stamps or cuts that I wouldn't normally use. And you get to send someone a smile in the mail! :0)
Thanks for stopping by! See you soon and Happy Crafting!

Jaded Blossom Easter Challenge

Hi everyone!! It feels like it has been a while since I have posted any projects---oh cause it HAS been a while!! I went through a little creative block for about 2 weeks. I would go to my craft area and just look at everything-- and it felt overwhelming- so I took a break! Then FINALLY it all came back and I created some last minute Easter crafts I'd like to share with you!!

I am entering this project in the Jaded Blossom Easter treats challenge! You can go HERE and enter your project!


I used Easter Treats stamp set and 1x8 bags! And cut these circles on my brand new Cameo!!!! First cut ever! (I have not played much with the Cameo yet--but will post more project made with it later)

It is so easy to add a cute Jaded Blossom stamp to any treat and make it a little more personal :0)

Again I used the Easter Treats stamp set!!

I used the Flag Die and Easter Treats again!! :0)


Finally--I used the Jaded Blossom Easter Owl set, and the flag die and Bunny Poop!!

I hope everyone enjoyed their Easter! Don't forget to post your Easter treat for the Jaded Blossom Challenge!!! Thanks for stopping by! Happy crafting!
