Candy Treats with Video

Hello everyone!

Happy Valentine's Day!  Today I have a video for you--only my 2nd and I still have so much to learn (this is way out of my comfort zone).  One thing to learn is a better way to have my camera behind me so that everything is not too close up!   I just wanted to do this short video to help with assembly of the candy boxes on Victorian Romance.  They seem tricky at 1st, but once you put one together, it makes so much more sense!  The thing that takes the longest is the scoring, but I did not show that part.  I just put together one end for you to give you the idea.  And I think that even though there are hearts, on the ends, you can use them for other things than just Valentine's Day.

Here are the details and a completed picture of 3 boxes I made:

• Victorian Romance Candy box cut at 5 1/2 inches
• Plantin Schoolbook Circles cut at 1 and 1 1/4 inches
• My Pink Stamper From the Heart Set
• Little Yellow Bicycle Candy Hears on Pink with Foil Cardstock
• Blossom Twine from The Twinery
• For Blue box--ki memories Heartbeat Infatuation Cardstock
•  My Pink Stamper Love-alicious stamps

 Thanks so much for stopping by!  I really do appreciate everyone who visits :)

Pinkalicious Blog Hop!

Hi everyone!  Welcome to the My Pink Stamper Pinkalicious February Blog Hop!  Fridays are even more fun when you can hop.  If you have just come from the fabulous Cristi you are on track.  If you haven't make sure to start at Robyn, My Pink Stamper, so you do not miss a thing!

Today's challenge is to use the color red, a circle, pink ribbon and more than one My Pink Stamper stamp.  I have to say that this was a challenge for me.  I was making a treat box, but the picture didn't show the red on the pattern paper very well.  So I ended up making a circle card.  Not my best work though!

Here are the details:

• My Pink Stamper From the Heart Set: Hugs, Kisses, Happy Valentines Day, Big & Small heart
• Wild Card--base and circle cut at 5 1/2 inches; Oval cut at 5 inches
• Bazzill Bassics red and pink glitter paper
• Pink Organza ribbon
• red ink
• pop dots

I stamped hugs, heart, kisses in red ink onto the red card base. It's a bit hard to see in a picture but I think you can see a bit of it. I arranged the 3 stamps onto a block and stamped at once.  This is so easy to do with all of Robyn's stamps :)

Your next stop on the Hop is the wonderful June.  After you visit everyone, make sure to head back to Robyn's blog and play along! 

I do have a My Pink Stamper stamp set to giveaway today!  Leave one comment for your chance to win Robyn's Birthday Crazy set.  The last time we had a hop, there were blogger comment problems if you were using Internet Explorer.  So if you find you are having trouble leaving a comment today, try Firefox (I switched to that myself) or Google Chrome.

Thanks for stopping by today!!  Here's the whole hop list in order in case you get lost along the way.

Another Valentine

Hello everyone!  Here's another Valentine card I made.  I've been having fun making them lately!

Here are the details:

• Heart cut from Love Struck at 3 inches
• My Pink Stamper From the Heart Stamp
• Bazzill Basics Petunia cardstock
• The Paper Company Red Linen cardstock
• Martha Stewart Crafts Valentine Paper pack
• Marachino Twine from The Twinery
• Heart shaped iRock bling

I have been wanting the Love Struck cartridge forever, but it was so hard to fine.  I was so happy that it's in the digital form now.  And after the download, update your Gypsy and it will be on there!!  I was so happy to find this out!  I have not used the Craft Room since you can't use your cartridges that are linked to your Gypsy and ALL of mine are.

Oh, and I love the shaped iRock bling!!  I saw some diamond shapes at the store, but haven't bought them yet.

Have a great Sunday!

My Pink Stamper January Design Team Day

Hello again!


It's My Pink Stamper Design Team Day!!  Love these days :)  It's a day later than usual since yesterday was Robyn's birthday--I sure hope she had a fabulous day!!


For today's projects, the theme is Be My Valentine--make something, anything for Valentine's Day!  I love to make Valentine Projects and  I decided to go with some treat boxes.

Here are the details:

• My Pink Stamper From the Heart Set
• Art Philosophy Fry Box cut at 9 inches
• Sophisticated Cartridge cut at 2 inches for front of box
• Teresa Collins Posh Damask Paper
• Charcoal Twine from The Twinery
• Cotton Candy Close to My Heart Ink
• Pop Dots

I cut the boxes at 9 inches so I could fit 2 boxes on one piece of paper. They are probably going to my swap partners, so I hope they are not peeking :)

Make sure to go over to My Pink Stamper and see all the design teams wonderful projects and to play along!

Have a wonderful day!
