Treats for You!!

Howdy Friends and Happy Thursday!  Still struggling with this cold, but am slowly improving--thanks to everyone who suggested the oral Zicam (nasal bad I know) it seems to be helping!  Lots to get done today, not enuff hours I tell ya---getting my hair done today cuz' I had to cancel yesterday, my head was hurting too much & my nose was dripping--blech!  Then I've got to finish laundry (cuz it won't do itself while I'm gone for sure), do 4 more projects, pack, print out all my tix, check my to-do lists and then maybe sleep for a few hours--ACK!  Can you see me freaking out here? LOL  Just breathe Suzanne & it will be okay--is my mantra today, hee hee!  I will be posting while I'm at CHA so make sure & check in for projects, pics and new products!

Today I have TWO POSTS--yes it's one of those days, LOL!  So the post below this is the Pink Cat Studio Digi Release post and I made a really cool gift card/explosion box for ya'll to see!  And tomorrow will be a fun Valentine post as well!

Mo's Digital Pencil "Dream Team Blog Hop"



Since it's the third Thursday of the month, that mean's Mo's Digital Pencil's Dream Team has a fabulous Blog Hop for you!!  This month it's hosted by Kerttu and she callenged us to make some treat/goody bags!  She also asked Mo draw us a fabulous new "Cupid In Love" image for us to use (you can buy this cutie HERE)!  I created this fun box to hold some treats, in this case I altered a mini notepad with pen and a sweet bag of Valentine M&M's!  I'm LAST on this Blog Hop, so if you're starting with me make sure & go to the beginning at Kerttu's Blog HERE!


This box is called an "Ornament Box" and was created by Katie Renz for Scor-Pal--find directions HERE!  It's really easy to make, I just changed my cut-out to a heart with my heart Spellbinders and decorated it with this fabulously cute "Cupid in Love" image, some swirls made with THIS punch, Prima Roses, and some Prima Pearl Swirls. (love that Prima, don't ya?)  The top has a loop of ribbon that pulls the lid off, I decorated it with a bow and some more flowers.


I altered a small notebook that I had in my stash (my very large altered item stash, hee hee) with some more cs and dp, added some pearls & swirls (rhymes, hee hee--I'm a poet & don't know it) and another smaller image of "Cupid In Love" (that's the beauty of digi stamps, you can adjust the size, flip it & other fun things).  I stamped this heart with a different sentiment from THIS "Flourishes" set (love the font)!


Lil' Cupid was colored with Copics (the pinks I used are R85,R83,R81) and then stamped the Love sentiment from the Flourishes set.  Because you can't put Stickles on a digi image (it will smear the ink) I put diamond glaze on Cupid's wings and around the heart then sprinkled fine crystal glitter on top!

Hope you enjoyed the Blog Hop Today and got lot's of Sweet Ideas from the Dream Team!  Make sure and stop by Mo's Digital Pencil to SHOP (hee hee) or go to the beginning of the HOP at Kerttu's Blog HERE!
