Weekly Deals & New Set Lovely Amazing You!

Guess What?! It's Wednesday - time for another set of Weekly Deals for you!

If you are interested in purchasing these specials, you can find them HERE. 
Yesterday a new Photopolymer Stamp Set was released called Lovely Amazing You. 

Gotta love the "love you more than chocolate" stamp! Here's a few samples using that stamp set.

How adorable is that card with the envelopes!?! You can find this set HERE. Thanks for stopping by!

A LOVE-ly Anniversary Card and More!

Today I have a few more examples using the Snuggles & Smooches Photopolymer Stamp set. I really got a lot of awesome anniversary/love/valentine cards from this set. And I know the swirl (to me) could look like flowers or elements and could be use for ANY occasion!

I think this card is an awesome Anniversary Card. Very simple to make too. I used Basic Gray and Real Red. I stamped the large swirl in Basic Gray ink. Then I stamped the LOVE sentiment in white craft ink and embossed it with white embossing powder. I stamped a few little hearts in Real red around it to finish it off.

Next up is just a sweet card for a friend. Again the focal points are those swirls - don't you love them? I punched the Snuggles & Smooches sentiment out using my circle punch and adhered to the card front. Again easy peasy!

Love You!

Today I have another creation to share with you using the Snuggles & Smooches Photopolymer Stamp Set. 

I really liked how this turned out! I stamped the LOVE using Crumb Cake Ink on to Crumb Cake paper. Then I used a White Signo Uni-Ball Gell Pen to "color" between the lines. It really made it POP off the card!

I think the card is perfect for an Anniversary or even Valentine's Day for the hubby! Thanks for stopping by today!

My Silly Valentine

This is a CAS card - very easy to make! Just need a few ink colors and one stamp set (Snuggles & Smooches) and you get one super cute card!

I tell you those swirls are definitely my favorite part of the stamp set. So many cool things you can do with them. This was another project that Stamp Club made in the month of January. Gotta get a head start on those LOVE cards!

Berry Basket of Love

This was the Hostess Gift at my stamp club this month. I had to use the new die - Berry Basket BigZ L Die. I didn't put a handle on it but we totally could. It's actually very roomie and I wasn't sure what to fill it with so...

I decided that some 3x3 cards and envelopes would be perfect (along with a little candy). I continued the theme of using Snuggles & Smooches stamp set for the cards. I used some scrap pieces of Stacked with Love Designer Series Paper Stack. Something neat about this stack of paper is that one side is color and the other is black and white.

Lots of options on the paper as well. Perfect for the "love" holidays but also all the other occasions out there! 
Thanks for stopping by!

Oodles of Love

We had such a fun time at stamp club this week. We were missing a few people due to the nasty crud going around but all in all it was a great time!

This is one of the projects that we did. I love making the swirls look as though they are flowers (along with rhinestone centers) and the colors we used. Makes me smile!

We used watercolor paper, craft white ink and white embossing powder on the swirls. Once we embossed it we then used Aqua Painters to "watercolor" the background. I really wish I would have gotten some pics of the girls creations. Even though we used the same colors each one was unique and beautiful. 
I created this card with an anniversary in mind. Not everyone sends Valentines or has children to send/make Valentine's for. Wanted to show another option :D
Thanks for stopping by! 

Oodles of Snuggles & Smooches Valentine!

Remember this set?

There is something about the swirls and the sayings that made me HAVE TO HAVE IT! I love it so much that I've decided that is what our Stamp Club this Wednesday will be using for our projects.

No, I'm not going to share the actual projects but I am going to show a sample that I made using the set.

Does it look familiar? I "recreated" it from a Stampin' Up! sample they had on their blog. I wasn't sure what colors they used but I used what I thought looked good together. I really liked how they pieced the words together to create another saying...one that I wouldn't have originally thought of.

I was splattering away using my Aqua Painter and I kind of made a "blob" on it. At first I screamed and was like crap now I have to throw the whole thing away. But I took a few deep breaths and decided to just flick harder and more with my Aqua Painter so it wouldn't be AS noticeable, LOL. It's handmade so it might not be perfect but it's made with love :D

Last Post of 2014!

I can't believe that this is the last day of 2014! With it come changes...I have to admit blogging has not been one of my top priorities. It seems with all going on it falls to the bottom of the to-do list. I'm trying to figure out a schedule that I can stick with and achieve week after week. I think 3x a week is what I'm going to start with - so every Monday, Wednesday and Saturday I will update the blog. IF that is something I can achieve then I *might* see about adding more days. Honestly I do more posting on my Facebook page - so if you haven't joined my page, I'd recommend that! You can join here: https://www.facebook.com/pages/Made4ubymichelle/557799584253510

Where I've Been as well as New Stamp Set and Weekly Specials!

Anytime there is just a little change in my schedule I seem to get off schedule on other things...so last week it was my blog! I did a 2 day craft show and ever since then I haven't seemed to get back on track. And this weekend I'm going to KC for a girls weekend so I'm really wondering what will happen to my schedule. 
This is a busy time for so many - school and sports are in full session, more family activities such as pumpkin patches and Halloween. Not to mention craft fairs. And then there will be Thanksgiving and Black Friday...once that hits, well who knows what my schedule will be like, lol!
I'm back today to share the new Weekly Specials. Maybe there is something there that will help you this holiday season in your gift making. Or maybe it's on your want list - you should get presents too :D Either way, it's a great time to take advantage of these prices!

On a side note - today is the first day of school for my daughter. Our school district went through a boundary change and we were affected. So today she is starting at a whole new school - new time, new teachers, new friends. She'll be fine as she's my little social butterfly and is so excited. This mommy is just a tad nervous though. I am anxiously keeping myself busy until she returns to hear all about it! I'm sure I'll share a picture or two tomorrow...wish us luck, lol!
