Stampin Up Artisan Blog Hop- Twitterpated

Happy New Year!!!!!
Welcome to our first blog hop of 2015! There are so many amazing new products coming this year & it was so hard to pick what fun things to use today so I went with my favorite DSP from the Occasions catalog- the Stacked with Love paper stack. The black & white patterns make it so versatile & the heart designs are super cute too!



The new heart border punch makes the perfect size heart to add to the "twitterpated" stamp.
And since it is getting ready to be my favorite time of the Stampin Up year, I couldn't let you leave without sharing one of the most beautiful stamps in the Sale-a-Bration collection- Lotus Blossom.


I had the pleasure of meeting with my team for a little play date on Monday & we all fell in love with this set. It's a 3 step stamped flower & we used Blackberry Bliss because for one it's the best color EVER & two it is so intense that doing the double stamp off still makes for a beautiful look. Ok I am soooo uber excited to see what the other girls made so let's get to hoppin'!
Sarah is up next-

Happy Birthday Cam!


Best. Day. Ever. Little did we know what a truly amazing gift this child would be. This girl just radiates joy & love. She is truly beautiful person inside & out!
So today we celebrate her & for the next 10 days we will have 2 nine year olds in the house!

Ok well we need to get on with the birthday festivities but before I go I wanted to share a card I made to celebrate another very important birthday- yesterday was my dearest friends special day & this was the card I made her-


 
This was us clowning around at Managers reception last year! 
Ok really gotta go now~ Hugs!

Fancy Friday- I Love Tags!

 
I am so blessed to be a part of this blog hop! I love this group of friends & they truly inspire me & totally amaze me with their creativity!
Well this months theme was Tags & I swear I had no influence on that decision even though it seems I have had quite the tag obsession lately. Lol! Ok how about we take a look at some tags, shall we-
 
 
So as you can see I just had to break out all my fabulous Hello December Project Life toys!
These product are just an amazing way to create something super cute in no time at all! SERIOUSLY! These came together in like 15 - 20 minutes. Now I am ready to decorate some little last minute packages. :)



 
Well I hope you are inspired to crank out some fun tags for your Christmas stash.
Now it's time to go visit the fabulous Alanna Wharf!

Stampin Up Artisan Blog Hop- Letterpress Winter

Welcome to our last blog hop of the year!!!!!! Wow can't believe that! We will be off next week to celebrate Christmas but we will be back the following week & ready to go with a brand new box of toys! Eeek!
Ok well lets get back to today's project- I loved the swirly style of the Letterpress Winter stamp set & I needed to fancy up one of our Café bags for...YES another December birthday! 
 
 
Since I have been on a tag kick that's where I started.
 
 
 
And because it IS Christmas I couldn't let you leave with out sharing a little holiday cheer-
If you follow me on Instagram you already got a peek at the supplies I used to create these beauties!


 
These are tiny pinecones that we brushed with crystal effects & glitzed up. Great fun for the kiddos- if you have a way to contain the glitter mess, Lol! Anyway I made these as favors for my friends at our Demo Christmas party last week. Ok lets hop on Santa's sleigh & visit the next stop on our blog hop- the amazing Sarah Sagert!
 
MERRY CHRISTMAS!

Stampin Up Artisan Blog Hop- Hello December!

Oh my its DECEMBER!
In our house that means Birthday & Christmas madness will descend on the Weber house!
But before I loose my marbles over that how about I tell you about my current love affair... with Stampin' Up!'s HELLO DECEMBER Project Life products!
Oh My Goodies! I love bits & pieces so when I opened the Hello December Accessory pack I may have squealed out loud. Sequins, stickers, washi tape, wooden embellishments, printed acetate- so much fun in one tiny package!
 
When I saw all the "December" cards in the PL pack I was giddy.
They were just begging to be prettied up. ;)

It was overcast today so the shine on these is not showing up on camera but one fun thing I want to point out is the fabulous foil stickers. I cut the sheet of red foil letters apart to use the strip that was between the rows of letters & even though it looks black in the photo that stripe under the December is actually shiny red foil! And the little banner on the corner of the other card was punched from the extra silver foil from the star sticker sheet! No shiny stuff will be wasted around here Lol!

  I almost forgot about these adorable bags that come with theCelebration Basics Banner Kit. I loooooooove these bags, they are seriously Adorbs! So this little bag may hold a little treat for one of my birthday girls.
 The other tag turned in to a fun card!
Well that's all I have for you today so lets go visit Sarah!
