Petal Cone Heart Hanging Basket

It's Friday!  I've been busy working on the projects that will be made at my upcoming XOXO Sweetheart Stamp Camp.  Here is one of the projects that will be made.  I just recently got the Petal Cone Bigz L Die (p. 221), and I'm so glad I have it!  There are so many things that you can do with this wonderful die!  The Petal Cone it makes is pretty enough, but some very creative people out there have come up with a lot more you can make with it.

The project below is one of them.  I've seen these heart hanging baskets for awhile, and I couldn't wait to finally make one.  I also used the new P.S. I Love You set (p. 8 in Occasions Mini) & Twitterpated DSP (p. 13 in Occasions Mini).  I hope you like it!

Three Little Words...

Happy Monday, everyone!  It's Monday, so that means there's a new Mojo Monday sketch (MOJO225).  This card is a super easy one, and I'll be demonstrating it at a workshop I'm having in less than 2 weeks.  I rotated the sketch 90 degrees to make it a portrait card.  I got the color combo from a card I saw in the current Idea Book & Catalog on p. 167.  All of the hearts come from the I {Heart} Hearts set (p. 46), and the greeting comes from the Three Little Words set (p. 166).

The vanilla squares were punched out with the 1-3/8" Square Punch (p. 212), and I cut out the 1-1/2" Rose Red squares with my Paper Cutter (p. 208).  I cut out the Old Olive heart in the top left square and the Perfect Plum heart in the bottom right square with my Paper Snips (p. 208).  The Rose Red polka dot heart was stamped, and then punched out with the 1-3/8" Square Punch.  The little Rose Red "Love" heart was punched out with the Small Heart Punch (p. 210).  The Rich Razzleberry "Love" heart and the two hearts with the greeting came from the same stamp in the I {Heart} Hearts set.  I inked the hearts with Rich Razzleberry, Rose Red, & Old Olive Stampin' Write Markers, and then punched them out with the Heart to Heart Punch (p. 210).  The two small hearts were popped up with Stampin' Dimensionals (p. 206).  "Three Little Words" was inked up with Rich Razzleberry & Rose Red Stampin' Write Markers, and the "i love you" was stamped with Old Olive ink.  The greeting piece was stamped onto a 3" x 1" piece of Very Vanilla card stock, and the Rose Red mat is 3-1/8" x 1-1/8".  I embossed the 4" x 5-1/4" Perfect Plum card stock with the Framed Tulips Impressions Folder (p. 218), and then attached to the Old Olive card base.  I then added the other pieces inside the tulip frame.

My First Stacked Card

Happy Thursday, everyone!  Only one more work day!  I'm lucky enough to have my weekend starting now.  I'm getting ready to scrapbook and make cards with some very good friends this afternoon through Saturday afternoon.  It's an annual 48 Hour Stampin' & Scrappin Retreat that my church has every year.  It's so much fun.  I can't wait to leave in about an hour!

Today's card is my first Stacked Card.  It's also called a Telescoping Card.  I learned how to make one on Joan Ervin's Blog.  The main stamp set I used is P.S. I Love You (p. 8), and it's in the Occasions Mini. The "Love" on the small heart layer is from an upcoming Sale-A-Bration set, Outlined Occasions.  This card will also be one of the cards made at my XOXO Sweetheart Stamp Camp.  You can find out more about this camp on my EVENTS CALENDAR.
