TWO OF MY FAVORITE THINGS

Click on the photos to view them up-close!  I love Hot Chocolate and I almost always drink it from one of my many antique teacups.  This teacup is from a set of china that belonged to my husband's parents.  The china was passed down to us and will one day be passed down to our son.  The china pattern is SUNRISE by HOMER LAUGHLIN COMPANY.  Be sure to leave me a comment to let me know how you liked my layout!
 

This is a close-up of the matted picture on my layout. I added grosgrain ribbon photo corners to the photo and matted the photo with the butterfly cardstock. I went around the edges of the butterfly photo mat with a "Chocolate" stamp pad. Then, I used 3-D foam Tape under the photo mat to pop it off the page....you can't really see that in the photos, but it looks amazing  the way it pops off the page.  I added an antique dangling crystal heart earring to the photo corner. I cut the screw part of the earring off with wire cutters and glued the earring to the photo corner using Liquid Glass.  Liquid Glass is a VERY strong clear adhesive that works great for holding embellishments on your artwork.

I hope you have been inspired!  Be sure to leave me a comment, if you can.  Comments are always loved and appreciated!

A CARD FOR MY VALENTINE

This is the 5" x 7"card I made for my husband, Milton, for Valentine's Day. I used the Key To My Heart stamp set for the key which I stamped in Black ink Z2105 and the sentiment on the front of the card which I heat embossed using gold embossing powder Z668. The large heart is from the Love Language stamp set D1343 and is stamped using the Cranberry ink stamp pad Z2116. I added Prisma Glitter Z134 on the white designs on the large Cranberry heart, then I added a white flower with a Clear Sparkle Z1104 in the center of the flower. I made the base of the card using Cranberry Cardstock. The patterned paper layered on top of the Cranberry cardstock is from the Silhouette Level 2 Paper Pack X7090B. Sheer ribbon is wrapped around the left side of the card and tied into a bow.

CAPRICE LAYOUTS

I LOVE the way these layouts turned out!!! It was so fun and easy to make them. I used the Caprice Level 2 Paper Pack X7086B, Chocolate Stamp Pad Z2111 to ink the edges of the blue photo mats. The tag is a sticker from the Caprice Mystickease pack X7086C. I put the sticker on a piece of chocolate cardstock and cut it out, leaving a boarder of the chocolate card around the sticker. Then, I attached a piece of ribbon to the tag using a chocolate brad.


The Prima paper flowers shown above on the chocolate cardstock ribbon are attached using CTMH Brads.


These flowers are made using 2 sizes of the Dazzling Die Cut flowers and a Goldrush corduroy button from the Autumn Garden Collection Z1119 of embellishments from the Mini-Medley Accents Collections. I LOVE LOVE LOVE all of the embellishments in these collection!!!! They are awesome! I curled up the edges of the center petals of the flower to give it more demention.
