KISS ME...a mini file folder card

hello all,

i think is time for me to get out of hibernation despite we still have so much ice and snow and  in the ground and expecting more. we have been hammered: storm after storm.
i will try my best to have more projects for inspiration.

if you like my style, please subscribe so you do not miss a post.

today i will be using some products from the 'love you more' collection from elle's studio that i received in an order from nani ke ola scrapbooking supplies. all the little pieces and labels and journaling tags are adorable and so much fun to play with. i also ordered some 12x12 patterned papers from the same collection so i have a few projects in mind to share in the next few days.

Kiss Me

3.5" x 4.75"

mini file folder

i used a cricut cartridge for the file folder cut.  i popped with foam adhesive the 'kiss me' round tag and i also added some glossy accent to the mini heart.

i attached the hearts patterned paper with some straight stitch using my sewing machine and went over it a few times to make it stand out. you already know how much i am enjoying this sewing on my projects lately. hehe.

more sewing here attaching these two tags together that also came in the 'bits and pieces' pack.

i love how all the tags with their phrases make it so easy to work to layered together.

(the background white patterned paper is from american crafts).

hope you like my mini file folder card. you can add a love note of your own and afterwards use in any scrapbooking page as an embellishment or journaling tag.

all the supplies have been linked to nani ke ola for your convenience, if interested. the store is running a special right now of a 20% off on this collection right now and they are going fast. i am happy i had pre-ordered mine.

thank you for stopping by and if you have time you can also check our blog. my team mates are into mixed media and they show lots of beautiful techniques that you can use as an inspiration for any of your paper crafting projects.

Have a great day!

PAPER DOLLS DRESS UP SERIES---episode 4

hope you all had a great mother's day.
 we left for boston on friday morning to pick up my gift for mother's day: my son, lol

we also stopped at this mall close to our hotel and got a picture with dustin pedroia, who plays for the red sox. my hubby was in heaven since he is a big-big fan of dustin.
it was a very nice trip!!! besides the lots of packing :)

anyhow, here is our fourth episode of
paper dolls dress up
(pddu)

this is my project
a

College Bound ---file folder card
4 x 5 " tall

the pirate girl is from page #45 and it is #17 on the overlay.
(look at the hair, hehe. i used a halloween cob webs paper because i wanted to, lol).

i made some small holes with the crop-a-dile to tie/stitch the twine around.

the file tab where i stamped "college bound" was cut and outline (with a zig fine tip pen) by hand. the cute little map was majorly distressed to make it look like an old map where she found her treasure.
(her treasure was a free pass to college :P --just because this card is for one of my nieces who graduates this year).

the file folder is from graphically speaking, #32 on the overlay.
the face is from peachy keen stamps and the cardstock used from k&co and american crafts.
---this pirate has been through a lot in her short life, i can assure you life has not been easy for her---:(

MY PINK STAMPER PINK-A-LICIOUS BLOG HOP

WELCOME

to our monthly

PINK-A-LICIOUS BLOG HOP

my name is agnes and i run this my flowerdiscos scrap hut.

i am also one of My Pink Stamper designers and i hope you have lots of fun with our hop.

we have a line up you can follow but at the end you must go to the

My Pink Stamper website to participate in her challenge. My Pink Stamper designs clear stamps among many other things has tons of video tutorials on you tube and and  
tons of fun projects and lots of giveaways.

her stamps are of great quality and i love working with them. you will find lots of versatile sentiments, phrases and punnies among them.

we are showcasing her latest release in this hop.

my project for today is a mini album.

i used in my mini the "flowers & friendship" set

The Earth Laughs in Flowers

2.5" x 4.75"

the "happiness" on the tab is from this new release too. the little dots on the background are from her first release, yay...her first release and i still use it often enough.

the base for my mini is 10" x 4.75" real size

i used the from my kitchen cricut cartridge for the tab folder.

i scored it at 2.5", 5", 7.5". 

each panel ends up being 2.5" wide.

the sentiment above is from another stamp set called:

"everyday sentiments".

the sentiment on the right is from this new release:

"flowers & friendship"

the "my journey" was stamped with another stamp set called:

"font-a-bulous"

the "heart to heart" is half of one of stamps from the "flowers & friendship" release.

the mini red hearts the fairy on the left is blowing away are also from her first release and before i forget the name is "simply sweet occasions".

and of course, the most beautiful one, in my opinion, is the title for my mini

"the earth laughs in flowers".

as i always say, these My Pink Stamper clear stamps sets are so versatile you can use them in any project. be creative with them, and do as i did with the heart to heart and the happiness on the tab . all i wanted on that page was that and i was able to stamp it the way i wanted it.
you can too!
any time you hover over "my pink stamper" on this post, it will take you to her site.
you need to stop there to join the challenge and why not check out all her stamps while there.
one by one, you can own them all :D
