14 Days of Love Tags

Here are the two tags that I made using Basic Grey's True Love line.  These were actually left over pieces from my Basic Grey Kit of the Month Club kit.  They always give you so many goodies.  I also used a Unity Stamps Life Calendar stamp which would be perfect on layout pages as well as on cards.  Of course I had to use a bunch of dies from My Favorite Things.  Lisa has all these items and more in the store to make for your favorite Valentines.

Kisses for my sweetheart Card
Happy February everyone.  I wanted to start this month of love of with a vintage valentine and these Graphic 45 papers are perfect for that. You can find all these lovely products in the Hens' Den store.   I am going to tuck this away for my sweetie.  I used some Crystal Effects on the lips, on the kisses tag, on the fan that the woman is holding and on the hearts on the My Sweetheart tag.  I had fun playing with Pic Monkey to edit the cropped photos.

Bella Boulevard Birthday Boy Favor Tubes


Birthday tubes rah
How fun are these tubes filled with yummy M&M's.  I used Bella Boulevard's Birthday Boy line again and these tubes match the card that I did earlier this month.  I am in love with my Silhouette.  It is so easy to work with and cuts images that are intricate to easily.  I made a pom pom from some The Twinery Twine and used one of Bella's lovely little matching flags to complete the top of one tube which I decorated with a candle and a 2 I had cut out.  The other tube has the same Happy Birthday cut out as my birthday card.  I put the green layer behind the die cut image and then cut out another circle of blue cardstock and glued a toothpick in between the two layers.  I made a hole in the top of my tube and glued in the toothpick so that it will be stable.
