This 3 x 3 shaker note is perfect to tuck in a package for your Valentine. I started with a 3 x 6 piece of Real Red, scored at 3″ to make a little note card. I already had the negative of a square, cut from another project so I trimmed it down to 2 3/4 x 2 3/4 and put a piece of acetate on the back. Using the foam strips, I made a box on the back and filled it with little shaker bits and some heart from the Confetti Hearts punch. After adhering a piece of white card stock to seal it up, I die cut a Red Glimmer Love to the front and a white embossed You from Crazy About You. Hugs, Fran

Hello Swirls
You’ve probably seen this design all over the place – cause it’s cute! 🙂 This uses more of the Swirly Bird stamp set and die and this time I inset the die pieces. By using the positive piece I was able to quickly place the negative pieces. I used the Hello You Thinlit covered in Crystal Effects for the Hello and Crazy about You to finish it off. And sequins – lots of sequins! Some things just need to be repeated. Hugs, Fran
Peek a boo Thanks
Swirly Bird Thanks! I used the Swirly Bird stamp set (again) to make some background paper in Peek a boo Peach and added some swirly roses in Peek a boo Peach and Calypso Coral. The “Thanks” is the Hello You Thinlits die cut in Peek a boo Peach and covered with Crystal Effect. I just snipped off the “s” and added the “you” from Crazy About You in Calypso Coral. Hugs, Fran

Design Decisions
This was design #1. Crazy About You and Sassy Salutations. The Basic Black is 4 1/4 x 11, Real Red 4 1/8 x 5 3/8, Whisper White 4 x 5 1/4. Simple design for a Stamp a Stack.
Design #2 – Real Red 4 1/4 x 11, Basic Black 4 x 5 1/4, Whisper White 3 7/8 x 5 1/8 and “the other” flower from Crazy About You (and a blurry pic – sorry!)
And this is the one I chose – Basic Black 4 1/4 x 11, Real Red 5 1/4 x 4, Whisper White 3 7/8 x 5 1/8. I could have gone either way – Black or Red base, but my kids liked the Black base best. How about you? Hugs, Fran
Crazy About You
There is a cute card on page 106 of the new catalog using the Crazy About You stamp set for a square, maybe 4 x 4 , card. I love the look but wanted a bigger card so I simply took the elements of that card and put it on a 4 1 /4 x 11 piece of Blushing Bride that was embossed with the Decorative Dots embossing folder. You could also do the reverse – take a large sample and make it smaller. Or take your favorite design and see how many different sizes you can do! Stretch those stamp sets! Hugs, Fran
