My Pink Stamper Pinkalicious Blog Hop for April

Hi everyone!  It's time for another Pinkalicious Blog Hop!!  I love to hop along and see what the entire My Pink Stamper Design team has come up with :)  Today's theme is Mother's Day.  It's right around the corner so we are here to inspire you!  If you just came from the fabulous Edna, you are on the right track.  If not, be sure to start at Robn's blog so you don't miss out!

Today I made a cute little gift bag and a 3x3 card to go with it.  I am planning on putting a gift card in there and maybe some candy treats.  I filled it with some pink and white shreds for now.

Here are the details:

• My Pink Stamper Fontabulous and Happiest Moments
• Tags, Bags Boxes and More box cut at 8 inches
• DCWV The Cherry Limade Stack
• Epiphany Crafts Pennant 25 punch and epoxy
• Twine from Trendy Twine
• iRock gems and flower kit
• Pop dots

Ever since I got the Epiphany Pennant as a gift for Easter, I have been wanting to use the My Pink Stamper Fontabulous to spell out a word in a banner.  And this was the perfect project to show it off!

Be sure to hop on over to Michelle's blog next to see what amazing project she came up with today!  When you are done hoping, head back to My Pink Stamper so you can play along too.  And now is the time to purchase your My Pink Stamper stamps for your Mother's Day projects or even gifts :)  Be sure to check out her product page for places to buy.

Now you have a chance to win the same punch and a packet of pennant epoxy stickers for yourself!!  Just leave one comment on this post with a way to reach you.  This will close on Wednesday night and I will post the winner on Thursday!

Happy Easter!

Happy Easter everyone!  Here's a quick post today with some Easter goodies I made.  They are home made Peanut Butter and Coconut candies.  It's a family tradition to make these.  The recipes come from my grandmother and making them remind me of her and all the fun weekends I used to spend with her.

I made the bunny tags to put on the bags that I passed out to co-workers on Friday.  The tags are from Tags, Bags, Boxes and More 2 and the sentiment is from My Pink Stamper Happiest Moments.  I was making the tags at 9:30pm on Thursday night so there is no extra embellishments on them.  If I had the time, the ears would have been Stickled Pink :)

Have a blessed day!

Sock Cupcakes

Hi everyone!  Hope you are having a fabulous weekend :)  It's actually been cold here--and very windy.  But we haven't had much cold weather in GA this year so no complaining!  I stayed in on Saturday and made a few things since I didn't want to get blown over--LOL!


Here are some sock cupcakes I made for my daughter and her friends.  I have always wanted to make these and just never did until yesterday. 

And the details:

• Cupcake Wrappers cartridge cut at 2 3/4 inches
• Victorian Romance heart tag cut at 2 inches
• My Pink Stamper Happiest Moments stamp
• Bazzill Glitter Paper (Pink and Purple)
• White Cardstock
• Pink and purple organdy ribbon

These are so fun!!  I used the hearts that cut out of the cupcake wrapper as 'sprinkles' on the cupcakes. The socks came from Michaels and were $2.  I am going to hunt for some more good deals on them and make these for Christmas gifts for coworkers this year.  The Cupcake Wrapper cartridge has so many choices for any holiday or occasion, that I can't wait to make more!

I hope to have a quick video up for you tomorrow.  Only my second one and it just shows how to put together the candy box from Victorian Romance.  They seem a bit confusing at 1st so I thought a video would be a good idea :)

You can still leave a comment on Friday's Pinkalicious Blog Hop post for your chance to win a My Pink Stamper stamp set from me.  I'll leave it open until Tuesday night and announce the winner on Wednesday!

Happy Thanksgiving

Hello everyone!  Can you believe I have had something to show you so many days in a row?  It's all thanks to World Card Making day and my needing to make another card for the next part of the Practical Scrappers Card Making Contest I am in :)  Today is the last day to vote, so if you have some time today, I would really appreciate your vote.  Even if you happened to vote for me already, you can vote once a day.  I have no idea how anyone is doing since they have kept it hidden (probably a good thing for me) :)

Here's the link to the post with my card in it:  http://www.practicalscrappers.com/2011/10/card-contest-round-one-group-three.html All you need to do is leave a comment with my name (Helen Bisesi).  I would love to move on to the next round since I've already submitted my card for it, so I appreciate all the votes!

This is a card I made as one of the options for the next round (I made several before I decided which to send--stress!!) but I didn't go with it.

Here are the details:

• Disney Princess Happily Ever After pumpkin cut at 3 inches
• Straight from the Nest leaves cut at 4 inches
• Cuttlebug folders: Divine Swirls for background; Swiss Dot for leaves:  the bottom of a skinny flowers folder for the pumpkin
• My Pink Stamper Happiest Moments Stamp
• Cappuccino Twine from the Twinery
• Heat set gems and iRock to attach
• pop dots
• brown ink to distress

No matter if I move on to the next round of the contest or not, I will show you the card I submitted on Saturday!!

Thanks so much everyone!!!
