COLORING DOWN THE LINES!

This week week on 

Coloring Down the Lines 

we are beginning our mourning over the 2015-2017 In-Colors! They will be leaving us in another month or so. While we wait with anticipation for the new In-Colors, we will surely miss these!!! Oddly enough, the color I liked the least in the beginning became my fave-Mint Macaron. Boy will I miss that one!!!

So as you hop, before me is Helen's blog, and after me is Lizzy's blog! You know there's lots of goodness all through this hop!!

Here's my project this week:

Here's the inspiration photo:

So I decided to do something other than a card this week! I need a "favor" of sorts for an event in a couple of weeks, and I thought this would be perfect!  It's called an Envelope Punch Board Tea Cup! Must be honest-found it on Youtube! Not my own creation! But how cute is this?! It would be perfect for some little chocolates or something! Cute presentation.

So it's fairly easy to make. Lots of scoring. The Envelope Punch Board makes the little indents in the bottom for the fold on the cup. A little embossing & some punches decorate the sides nicely! So just something fun & cute!

The stamp sets I used are Thoughts & Prayers & Petite Petals.  The tools used are the Envelope Punch Board, Circle Punches, Simply Scored, Embossing Powder & Heat Tool, Metallic Foil Doilies, Pearls Basic Jewels, Petite Petals Punch. 

Hope you like this project. Gonna use it for a class at our local Senior Center. I think it's a perfect little table treat for the guests!!!

Happy Stampin'!

COLORING DOWN THE LINES!

Coloring Down the Lines Blog Hop

Here's this week's bling:

Here's the inspiration photo:

So I had fun with this card & really LOVE how it came out!!! It's one of those cards ya make but never wanna send! lol  I know some of you get that! lol

I used my Gold Glimmer Paper, Gold Metallic Paper and 

Metallic Foil Doilies to create "champagne bubbles"! Pulled out all the gold for this one!! Cool right?  The stamp set is one of my all-time favorites, 

Mixed Drinks!!!!  Even the ribbon has gold-its the Natural Trim!!! 

I just simply used lots of Circle Punches for this one!! Bubbles bubbles bubbles!!   And paper-saver note: if you were to lift up the top layer, you would see holes in the Glimmer Paper!! Paper conservation-my motto!!! lol

The background is accentuated with the 

Large Polka Dots Embossing Folder-keeping it round! And lastly, the "champagne" is simply Gold Wink of Stella!!! Such a fun card to make!!!!

As this is the last day in this hop for 2016, I just want to wish everyone a blessed, happy & healthy 2017!! May it be filled with fun, family, good health and lots of stamping!!!!

Happy Stampin'!!!!!
