Before I show you my prjoects, I just want to say thank you to you all for visiting my blog! It i with a very very sad heart that I say, this will b my last post as a Senior Design Team member for Marks Finest Papers! With 3 kids, volunteering and keeping up with a house and husband who works shiftwork,it is extremely hard for me to keep up woith the required 10 projects a month. MFP has been absolutely AMAZING to me and I am sooo sad to be leavng :(

So, if you know of anyone looking for a DT member and only require 3-4 projects a month...I'm your girl! Also, please stop by from time to time, I will still be posting lotsof cool stuff! At least I hope you think it's cool!

And here are my projects!

Project one: a super cute heart garland that I have hung ver my mantel...I let my four year old pick the colors and pattern...I think she did a great job! Supplies: heart punch, varried colors of cardstock, stazon ink, sweing maching

Project 2: These pocket hand warmers have been all the rage lately and I had to try my hand at tem...I made a whole bunch, some machine stitched and some hand stitched...the hand stitched ones look so much cuter than the machine stitched!!! BTW, I think I need a new Stazon Jet black ink pad...mine is cracked and keeps drying out! GRRRRR

Aren't they sooo stinkin cute? I hand staitched these almost all the way closed and then added some rice to the inside, I used jasmine rice because I like the way it smells when it's heatedin the microwave! Yo canalso add come lavander or other yummy smelling grasses! Simple put these in the microwave for about 45 second to a minute and then place them in the coat pockets of your little ones...or your own!

These little darling hand warmers make fantastic little Valentines Day gifts for your kids and your kids teachers...and with the felt being a quarter a sheet...pretty inexpensive too!

Supplies:

Felt

embroidery floss

needle

jasmine rice

stazon ink

stamps

Now go, check out the rest of the DT's awesome projects!

MFP January Blog Hop Day 3

Hello! Welcome to Mark's Finest Papers a Heinrich Company's January Blog Hop!

This month's New Stamp Set Releases are:

Love Remains Featured January 17
Cowgirls Rule Featured January 18
Sending Happy Thoughts Featured January 19

You Are Cherished Featured January 20

Please hop along with us! You have a chance to win one of the above stamp sets! Just comment on the following blogs (don't forget this one), each day for more chances to win! (You do NOT have to comment on all the blogs each day! The names are drawn randomly!)We will announce all four winners on January 21, 2012 on the Mark's Finest Papers blog. You can go back and comment if you missed a day. (HINT: The more you comment, the more chances you have to win!) The winners will be chosen at 11PM EST on Friday January 20, 2012.

And here is my project!

Again, I was aiming for simple, I wanted to let this gorgeous image speak for itself! Here is the low down, cut backgroud paper to 4x6. Cut white cardstock (MFP's white cardstock is the thickest, nicest, wonderful to color on cardstock that I have EVER used...EVER!) to 2.5x4.5 and stamp the image and sentiment in black. I then got out my handy dandy aqua brush and ink pads and colored this baby the old fashioned way! Dipping and coloring! YEAHHHH BABY!!! So I was thinking that before I give this little bit of home decor to someone I'm going to write a little note, something like, "This is my way of saying..." or if you choose to use the word "Hi" instead you can write something like, "Every time you walk by, thinking of me saying..." Corny I know, but to be honest...I LOVE corny!

So there you have it...day 3's project! Tomorrows is SUPER cute, so come on back! Can I just say that I love you guys! I do, it's true!

Now go, check out the rest of the DT's awesome projects!

And here is my card!

So I went the traditional card route today, but come back tomorrow and Friday, I have more 3D stuff up my sleeve!

This card was super fun and super easy to make. I started with some texrtured vanilla card stock from MFP and stamped that adorable image of the girl and the horse. I then cutout some prtt paers usng my big shot and dies ad lined them all p. Now I must tell you, I ran out to dimentionals, I know shame on me, shocker of all shockers, BUT I do have a TON of coasters, the super thick ones, so I used that behind my pretty paper to raise up what I needed! Clever, clever! Anywho, I then took the left over piece of coaster and cut it into a little flag shape and stamped the words in the mtching ink. You know this is a simple card, but I do love it. Sometimes simple is easiest! Now hop along! enjoy the rest of the ride!

Here is my project:

I know it's not a card, but I thought you all might like!

You see that little tiny stamp set name with 2012 on it?

Well I simply cut off the 2012 and thats what I used!

This is a little fine silver heart charm that I made from PMC (precious metal clay) I molded it, then I cut it and stamped it with the Love Remains stamp from the set. I scuffed it up some and then fired it. After firing I scrubbed, buffed, polished and then I dipped it in liver of sulpher (can you say stinky!) and then I polished it one last time and punched a hole, added a jumpring and through the chain it went! Super cute right?! It can be found here in my etsy shop!

I love how it turned out!

Now hop along and see what other pretty things my fellow DT members have made!

Floating along will forever remind me of Greece...a couple of months ago I was at my neighbors house and she has a little pond downstairs...in that pond were about 30 lotus flowers and I remember thinking that they are the most gorgeous flowers I have ever seen! When I saw the stamp set I knew I wanted to set off the simplicity of these gorgeous flowers!

Now don't get me wrong, I love layers and designer paper and all the trimmings that come along with this crazy fun industry, but sometimes there are stamps that require non to very little of that to make a gorgeous card! This is one of those sets...okay, let's be honest, most of Faiths stamps are like that! Thanks so much for stopping by! I hope you enjoy the rest of the hop!
