Pals March Blog Hop: Spring Has Sprung

Welcome to the Pals Blog Hop for March 2016. We are thankful you stopped by to take a look at our new 2016 Blog Hop monthly themes. This month we are featuring Spring and Spring related projects. We hope you enjoy our creations.

You may just be starting the Blog Hop or may have come from the previous link from the Line-up on the Pals Blog Hop listing shown below. The full lineup will help you move along from blog to blog so you may see all the projects.

I started my project thinking I would do a simple watercolor background with the flower being gold embossed and watercolored also. What ended up happening is a different story...With the exception of the large sequins, all products are Stampin' Up!

The central image is from the hostess set called "Best Thoughts". Even though there were newer sets in the most recent catalog, I knew I wanted to use this flower image for this blog hop.

I dyed the Whisper White Seam Binding with Watermelon Wonder ink straight from the ink pad. I ended up using a variety of images on the background for a collage effect. I won't list all of them, but please let me know if you have questions.

Hadn't planned on using any black at all on this card, but it just really worked well in the end to have the pop of black. I absolutely love how this turned out and hope you do too!

Thanks for visiting. To continue with the hop, please refer to the Blog Hop Line-up below. We hope to see you on next month’s Pals Blog Hop!

Please use the hostess code shown in the top right corner when ordering online, unless your order will total $150 before shipping & tax. At that point, you become your own hostess and get all of the rewards. Please keep in mind if you choose "no contact" from the demonstrator, I'm unable to see your name to send a thank you note.

Let me know if you have any questions about this project or any others on my blog.

Artfully Yours,

Kim

Golden Glow Luminary

This is another project for my class this Saturday. The luminary itself was very simple to make using the Curvy Keepsakes Box Thinlits die. The battery operated lights were purchased on Amazon.

I made the tassel removable by using a gold paper clip to attach the embellishments to. It makes it much easier to open the box to turn the light on and off. The tassel looks good as an ornament all by itself and I even think I see some new tassel earrings in my future...the possibilities are endless.

Product list below:

Bright & Beautiful Vellum Gift Box

As it turns out, I'm completely enamored with small boxes. Particularly the "no stick box" that UK Stampin' Up! demonstrator Sam Donald has a tutorial for over on her blog. I sized it up a bit and my measurements and instructions for scoring are here. All products used for this project are Stampin' Up!

I made the box using the Gold Fancy Designer Vellum Foil. I made a "belly band" using the Gold 5/8 inch Satin Ribbon. The star embellishment is made using the new stamp set Bright & Beautiful and the Star Framelits Die. The stars and linen thread is attached to the ribbon, so it will slip off of the box easily. Isn't this yummy??

I used Fringe Scissors to shred white tissue paper to stuff the box with. I did use one tiny glue dot near the opening of one end of the box to hold it all together and make it easier to stuff with tissue paper.
