My Valentine

I've been crafting up a Valentine storm with lots of hearts and Top Dog Die sets! Today I have a couple of those projects to share with you starting with these yummy goody bags filled with calorie-free washi! 

Many of us are trying to cut back on all the holiday sweets so I thought giving my crafty friends some pretty washi tape would be ideal!

I used the Sophie A2 Mat Die Set and the Sew Much Fun Die Set for this project...along with pretty papers from Pebbles' Yours Truly collection

These would be great little giveaways at your next crop, don't you think?

I created this Valentine card also with the Your Truly collection and another favorite Top Dog set called the Alexa Frames Die Set.

I'm always so pleased with the detailing of these dies and how easily they cut!

Just wait until you see the oodles of projects I've been creating with these gorgeous Pebbles papers!

Have you done any Valentine crafting yet? It's one of my favorite activities in January and February...makes winter feel just a wee bit cozier! 

Sew Beary Much

Top of the week to you! Once upon a time I used to do quite a bit of cross stitching. How about you? I'm always surprised to hear how many paper crafters used to stitch. Anyway, I've been thinking about doing another project or two lately and dug out my box of floss and pattern books. 

Look what I found in my stash...a little bear I never completed. I tried to finish him, but I could barely see these little squares anymore!!! I'm going to have to get some magnifier glasses!

Then it dawned on me that this little bear would look adorable just the way it is on a card with my favorite Top Dog Dies, Sew Much Fun.

This floss holder was created with one of the dies from the set...looks real, doesn't it?

The card name is Sew Beary Cute and it was so beary fun to put together. It'll be perfect for someone who loves to stitch.

Since I made this card I started working on a cross stitch silhouette project and I look forward to sharing it with you!

Hello

Top of the week to you! I'm glad you're here because I have an amazing new Top Dog Dies set to share with you called Sew Much Fun Die Set that includes nine sewing themed dies that are sew cute!

For this 'hello' card, I used six of the dies, one of which is my absolute favorite...the scissors! It's a two piece set that you assemble with a brad or tiny eyelet as I did here. How fantastic is that?!?!

I love the embossed detailing on the buttons and the thimble! Makes them look so realistic! 

This next card included the dress-form die that I cut twice to create a 'dress' for the form.

The little buttons make perfect 'o's, don't they?  What do you think of this set? I think I'll be using it sew much! ;) 

By the way, the pretty papers I used for these projects are from Bella Blvd. The first card features paper from the Love and Marriage collection and the floral paper used on the second card is from Snapshots. 

Hope you all have a great start to your week! 

Thanks for visiting! :)
