Creative Circle August Blog Hop

Creative Circle August 2015 01 full

 

Today is the Creative Circle’s August Blog Hop – Sprinkles of Life Ice Cream Parlor.  I used Watermelon Wonder DSP and the Brick embossing folder to create this one!  It easily holds 3 cards and envelope when the lid is raised.  I used the Circle Framelits to make my “handle” for the lid.

I used Chalk Lines in White Stazon to embellish the windows.

You can change the look by simply changing the Designer Series paper.  Here it is made up in the Sweet Li’l Things DSP with a Lots of Labels Framelits handle.   The pattern can be purchased here.  Can’t wait to make it up for Halloween and Christmas!!  Want a chance to win this file?  Leave a comment below telling me how you imagine this house made up!  There will be a winner on August 10th from each blog on this hop – so make sure you see them all!  Hugs, Fran

Weathering the Storm Work of Art

Work of Art 04

 

This card uses the Sprinkles of Life cloud (punched out), Work of Art with markers for the rainbow and a sentiment from Six Sided sampler!  The rainbow is simply colored onto the Work of Art stamp using Stampin Write markers.  Then tie a piece of Baker’s Twine and add some of the cute Epoxy stickers colored with Copics or Sharpie markers.  I know I cased the idea for this card – and I usually write myself notes when I do – but I can’t find it!  So if you know where I saw the original idea, let me know!

Out on a Limb

Sprinkles of Life 04

Wow – the photo is kind of off kilter!  (Oh well – not my favorite card of the bunch)  This is a notecard with the new Bohemian Designer Series paper and Sprinkle of Life stamp set.  I wanted to use the branch and bird so I cased another of Sara Gardner’s cards.  I used different paper and it really changes the feel of the card.  Maybe if we all tilt our heads to the left it will work better 🙂  Hugs, Fran

 

Available June 2nd

Cupcake with Sprinkles

Sprinkles of Life 03

One more Sprinkles of Life – a cupcake!  This shows the Designer Series paper – Cherry on Top.  It’s a great 6 x 6 paper stack (Bermuda Bay, Cucumber Crush, Crushed Curry, Pool Party, Tip Top Taupe, Watermelon Wonder, Whisper White.)  The cupcake is on the smallest Deco Framelit and the banner underneath is made with the new Triple Banner punch!  Don’t you just love the colors in this DSP?  Happy Mothers Day to all the women out there making a difference in a child’s life.  Hugs, Fran

More Sprinkles of Life

Sprinkles of Life 02

More Sprinkles of Life and it’s matching punch!  This time I used it as an ice cream cone on a notecard.  The front layer is a piece of the SAB paper, Irresistibly Yours.  I brayered over it with Blushing Bride and then punched a 2 inch circle from the side.  The cone is Soft Suede on Crumb Cake and the ice cream is Soft Suede, Blushing Bride and Whisper White.  I added some Dazzling Details to the highlights.  June 2nd can’t come soon enough!  Hugs, Fran

Sprinkles of Life Sneak Peek

Sprinkles of Life 01

Sprinkles of Life is the new Ronald McDonald House stamp set – and it has a matching punch!  For every set purchased, Stampin Up will donate $3 to RMHC.  This shaker card is a case of one Sara Douglas did for a Stampin Up event.  I used the Adventure Bound Designer Series paper (from the current mini catalog) and the Sprinkle of Life set to create a shaker card.

I added some glitter – a bit too much!  It looks like it snowed at the orchard 🙂  You are going to LOVE this set!  It will make trees, baskets, ice cream cones, cupcakes – lots and lots of uses!  Hugs, Fran
