Poppy Parade is one of my FAVORITE In Colors!! I mixed it with Pool Party, Old Olive and Pear Pizzazz.  The flower was built using the "NEW" Blossom Punch and the Boho Blossom Punch.  I then added one of our "NEW" large pearls and Voila!!

I used the Edgelits Dies and then  the Textured Impressions folders.  The sentiment was stamped with Poppy Parade and layered using our AMAZING punches!! Check out the CLEARANCE Section HERE for the old style punches on Clearance!!! Fantastic deals!!!

I decorated the inside with Very Vanilla and stamped the flowers from the Fresh Vintage Stamp Set.  I also used the Edgelits to create a border on the edge of the Very Vanilla!!

The Happy Birthday was stamped and punched using the Curly label Punch. I also used the Dotted Ribbon Border punch on the edge of the DSP.

Are you all ready for another Challenge over at Decorate to Celebrate!! Well, the Challenge is Winter Weddings, so get your creative minds and start creating, then head on over to Decorate to Celebrate and enter your projects for a chance to win HERE!!  For the challenge I embossed some napkins with our Elegant Lines folder and made a favor box with an adorable charm that your guest can use after and enjoy the chocolates inside the box!! It's a nice way to thank your guests for attending!! Thank you for visiting and until next time, Enjoy my wedding projects!!

The napkins were so easy to emboss using our Elegant Lines Emboss Folder, I also stamped the napkins using the craft pad Whisper White.  The box is the matchbox die which requires very little adhesive and is very easy and simple to assemble!!

A closer look at the embossing and the stamped sentiment!! Don't you just LOVE that embossing on the napkin, they look gorgeous!! You can certainly emboss any napkin for any occasion!!

OK,  gotta LOVE this favor box with not only YUMMY treats inside but a Charm that can be used after the chocolates are gone LOL!!! The charm is "NEW" from the Occasions Mini Catalog available Jan. 4th.  I also used the adorable Tiny Tags Stamp Set and punch!! A MUST have ladies!!!

I used a few "NEW" products that will be available on Jan. 4 

Look at the heart it's the NEW Framelits Dies

{Hearts Collection} which range in different sizes 

the largest heart is 5-1/4"

Look at the embossed Adorable tiny hearts!  This was created using the "NEW" Textured Impressions Embossing Folders and used the Candy Conversations Stamp to stamp on the Large Whisper White heart and added a very shiny Stampin' Up! Rhinestone on the punched Pretty in Pink heart!!

The inside of the card was stamped with the A la Carte Stamp {Candy Conversations Stamp} in Whisper White card Stock. I then used the Small Heart Punch to add some dimension.

The sentiment is also a "NEW" stamp set that you can earn with a qualifying $50 order from SALE-A-BRATION Jan. 4  I used VersaMark pad and Stampin' Up!'s white emboss powder and heat set it with our heat tool!!
