Bouquet Die Flower and Library Paper Wreath

Yesterday was a special day, I finished this fun project and was able to deliver it to the place were they will be displayed. I made about 20 wreaths and 20 centerpiece embellishments to support the Milton Public Library and their Anual Balloom Gala. I have been looking for a fun project to try my  Bouquet Bigz L Die with. And I did!  Gotta love the big flowers you can create with it.

My Stampin'Up! Materials: 

Bouquet Bigz L Die & Big Shot Die Cut Machine, Butterflies Framelits (is on backordered, but soon will be released again:),

Floral Frames Framelits, Black ink pad.

My Other Materials: 

a book from the library (well several for the cones), black and vanilla card stock  dollar store gold tissue paper, photo film, fishing line to hang them -all these was provided by the library-; crop-a-file and eyelets, a hot glue gun and a can of gold spray

This is the back of the wreath, these will be hung from the ceiling so both sides needed something pretty.

The first one I made.

Remember I made bunch…my Living Room was bombarded by wreaths this week. 

I had a group of friends that came two Sundays ago and made about 7 flowers with me and cut and sponged and prepped for 20 wreaths. I so love having crafty amazing friends.

Thanks Virginia, Caroline, Cynthia and Lynnsey!

Hanging

I really liked them, what do you think?

I am living the word I received from heaven this year: enjoy.

I felt such a joy sharing these with my community. We may be selling some for donations to the library after the event. So excited! My kids and I love this library and have been happy to volunteer for events.

And since we have been hibernating this week (my kiddos have been fighting fevers and colds all week long). yesterday my girly (who was feeling better) and I did some Easter Crafts. Here is her cards. I think she is a nature. She did fabulous, and I am so proud of her.

Super easy and cute for this age. 

She took one of my Layers of Gratitude Paper Pumpkin stamps and made a background.  We then cut an oval and she proceeded to tape strips of pretty paper on the back of that layer.She loved punching some Itty Bitty flowers and adding bling. :)

Hope you are encouraged to use your talents to bless your community.

Is not always all about "what can I get?"…why not "What can I give?"

The Milton Library in Pennsylvania gives and gives and has so many neat events. 

I am grateful for the opportunity and so excited to share it with you.

I will be sharing some tips on this and the centerpieces on he next days plus a card I made inspired by this project.

Have a creative weekend!

My Favorite Stamp in the New Catalog

I truly enjoy getting together with friends and bless them with a good time. I love LOVE when someones leaves my place feeling refreshed and replenished. That is the most wonderful reward. I invited friends to my first My Paper Pumpkin Friends party and it happened to be my birthday so It was truly a celebration.

These awesome ladies even brought me gifts (but that was not the idea!!!). I was so blessed! We got to share, stamp together and all tasted Puertorican Tres Leches cake. Yumm! I also celebrated one of the most amazing ladies I've met in my new city, Linda Read, her birthday was also this month. So we sang happy birthday together and I made this gift for her with my favorite stamp set: Well Worded.

In case you wonder where I got the jar…is my fave raspberry jam jar repurposed. :)


Hope to inspire you today to bless someone with a stamped gift. I am so grateful she is in my life. She made me feel welcomed when I knew not one friend in this place. Thanks Linda!

Flowers were made using: Pansy Punch

New Itty Bitty Punch Accents Punch (flower)

7/8" Scallop Circle Punch and the A Round Array Stamp set.

To make these tags Cut Whisper White CS at 4 1/2" x 2"

Second Recycle- Easter Basket and one challenge!

Hi there!

This week is flying by and God is so good...and I m so busy...haha! But that's ok (as long as my heart is at peace with Him). I am doing well and I am on my way. First let me show you what I need to soon fill with cute Easter eggs. I was NOT raised with this Easter bunny idea...for me it was ( and still is ) all about my King Jesus, sooo the eggs...how in the world I explain that to my girls? Oh well...I had an idea. His resurrection brings so many blessings to our lives, the eggs may help us remember to count our "eggs" our blessings at all times.  Count how many blessings we received through His sacrifice...Gee! That's an inspiring thought. I am excited to share the real meaning of this holiday....
now check out my little tofu basket!

Do you have any other cool ideas for Easter "eggs" explanation? Lol! Share heere :)

Esta semana ha volado y dios es tan bueno conmigo...estoy tan ocupada..jaja! Pero esta bien siempre y cuando mi corazon este en paz con El. Dejeme mostrarle primero lo que pronto se estara llenando de huevitos de resurreccion. Yo NO fui criada con esta idea del conejito...para mi todo era (y es) acerca de mi Rey Jesus, bueno y como le explico los huevos a mis chiquillas? Tuve una linda idea...los huevos nos recuerdan las multiples bendiciones que recibimos por medio de la muerte y resurreccion de Jesus. Cuenta tus "huevos" bendiciones y demos gracias. Que pensamiento inspirante, eh! Estoy muy emocionada de seguir compartiendo el verdadero significado de la Pascuas con mis ninas...ahora vea lo que hice con la cestita del tofu!

Tiene algunas ideas motivantes de como explicar los huevos? Gracioso! Comparta aquiii :)

Some pleated Designer series Paper, Flower trim and satin ribbon (from my old stash) :)

Un poco de papel dobladito, la cinta de flores y un poco de cinta de satin (de mis viejitas) :)

Ive been transforming some little mushroom baskets into Easter baskets these days. Honestly it is so fun to see the end result. What have you transformed lately? I am so excited to give these to my daughters to placed their died Easter eggs. I have never done this before, the dying eggs thing...neither making little baskets for them. But I noticed one of my girls learns way better when I spend time with her just connecting. And crafting brings that connection between us.
What do you think of the transformation...yeap! This is a little mushroom basket...the ones from Walmart. Tomorrow I will show you the one I made with a Tofu basket...:)

He estado transformando unas cestitas de Setas a cestas de Resurreccion estos dias. Honestamente es bien divertido ver el resultado final. Que has tranformado tu ultimamente? Hay que reciclar, hehe! Estas son para mis ninas bellas. Manana les enseno la que hice con una cesta de Tofu...:)
Nunca he hecho manualidades de Resurreccion con mis ninos mas descubri que una de mis ninas aprende mejor cuando paso tiempito con ella conectando...y las manualidades nos conectan de veras. Que te parece la cestita...sip! Es una cesta de setas...de las que venden en Walmart. :)

Ribbons can do so much! Love the glimmer brads!

Las cintas hacen tanto! Me encantan los glimmer brads!

 

What kind of things do you like to recycle/repurpose?

I'm finding it very fun and relaxing!

Que tipo de cosas le gusta reciclar/darle un nuevo proposito?

Yo lo hallo bien divertido y relajante!

 

 

Creative Blessings your way!

Muchas bendiciones creativas!

Hostess Jar

Hello again!! Yesterday we had a wonderful time at my Open House with all my new club members. It was fun and refreshing to see them all having fun and exploring their catalogs and tools. Fun, fun!! Here is the jar I decorated for the Hostess to pick their hostess benefits month. :-) They all like it! I used the ornament punch, crystal effects and some pearls from a broken necklace to created the rose. The leaves are also the Ornament punch folded in half and passed diagonally thru the crimper. For the side flowers I used the scallop circle punch and the Boho blossoms punch. For the border I used the Scallop Trim Border Punch What do you think? Leave me you love with your comments and visit my store here.

Would love to hear from youuu,
Jessica U.
