    Yesterday I shared some ideas for the Patterned Occasions stamp set and so today we are on to our next set – Bloomin’ Marvelous!

    I’ll admit, this is a stamp set that I wasn’t too excited about when I first saw it.  I thought the sentiments were cute but the images were just eh.

    Well, then I started seeing the samples and I had a total change of heart!  Smile  So, here are some ideas you can try if you decide to pick up this set:

     

    And my absolute favorite because it feels so fresh and summery to me:

    So see… lots of different looks and sentiments all from one very unassuming stamp set.  What do you think?  Is this a set you can imagine using?

  • Bloomin’ Marvelous Embossed Treat Box

    When I accidentally ordered 3 packs of the Kraft Treat Boxes because I thought you were getting one for the $2.95 not 4 boxes for the $2.95, I was initially bummed to have so many boxes; but now I’m almost out and have been loving experimenting with them!  This was my first time trying out embossing and die cutting the boxes but I just LOVE how it turned out.  What do you think?

    I started out by grabbing my Window Frames framelits and cutting a hole in the top flap.  I will admit, it took some playing with which tabs to use and how to fold the box so that it would fit through the Big Shot.  In the end, I think I flipped over the first tab so only one tab on the white Multi-purpose Platform was being used.

    Once I got it cut out, then I went back with my polka dot embossing folder and embossed just the top flap.  Again, it look a little manipulation and I think an extra tab on the platform being flipped out, but it eventually worked!

    Then I just glued a piece of the Sycamore Street designer paper that I got free as part of the Sale-a-Bration promotion behind the hole for a pop of color.  I punched out the sentiment from the Bloomin’ Marvelous Sale-a-Bration stamp set and then added some flowers I created using the Boho Blossom punch.

    Finally I finished it off with a band of the Sycamore Street designer paper (in one of the other patterns) to tie in the colors from the top to the side of the box.

    Now it is the perfect gift to fill with treats and give to the next person who hosts a private class with me! Smile

    I still have a couple dates left for the Sale-a-Bration promotion period, so contact me at jennifer@nwstamper.com if you want to have a fun night out crafting with some of your friends.  I bring the projects, you all just show up and have a great time!
