I have created some valentines for my little girls that I teach tap to.  They are very simple but I was able to use 3 of myStampBox sets on them.  For the letters I used the Lots of Dots set, the heart is from the Bits and Pieces set and the lace looking border is from the new Graphic Borders set.

To give the tag some extra sparkle I added some bling to the border and some stickles to the edge of the heart and the edge of one of the blue flowers.  I know blue is not a traditional valentines colour but I thought it was fun to add this colour to help break up the pink.

Thanks for stopping on your journey. Don’t forget to leave a comment below to be eligible for a prize! Now on to the next station…. Your next stop is the very talented Stephanie Ackermann .

Photo Inspiration!

Today is my day to post over at myStampBox and today I am bringing you some photo inspiration.  Here is a valentines day themed photo that I hope will inspire you to make some things for your loved ones

I was inspired by the colours, the heart shape and the swirls in the roses.  For this card I used the Sigh Gush Gasp set for my sentiment and the Bits and Pieces set for my heart.

Be sure to stop by the myStampBox blog and check out my post!  Also don't forget about our Love Train blog hop coming up this weekend, you can get all the details here!  Thanks for stopping by!

Project Day at My StampBox!

Tuesday is project day over at myStampBox and it was my day to post!  I decided to create a LO for my project using papers from the Pink Paislee Parisian Anothology and My Minds Eye lines.  These papers and embellishments are from the monthly Scrap That Kits, I love these kits!  This was a dance photo of me that was done a year ago.

 I stamped the butterflies using the colourful companions set and the word love using the sigh gush gasp set.  If you would like to see detail shots of the LO be sure to check out my blog post over at myStampBox!  Thanks for stopping by!

myStampBox January Showcase!!

Our January showcase for myStampBox was to use number or alpha stamps on your project.  I used the lots of dots stamp set on my card.

This card was made using papers from the pink paislee anthology line from the Scrap That November Kit.  I love the grey and blue tones in it.  Be sure to pop over to the blog to see the rest of the team's creations.  They are amazing and feature some new stamps!!
