Gina K CSS Inspiration Hop

Hiya!!

Tonight the Gina K CSS Alumni gals have put together another blog hop for you. If you came from the talented Miesje Flach's blog you are right on track! If not, please go to Stamp TV and start at the beginning so you do not miss any of the fabulous projects the gals have created for you!

The challenge is to create a card or project based on this inspiration piece from Southern Living provided by Miesje:
When I looked at this photo I knew right away that I wanted to make a Valentine's Day treat holder for Abbi so that is what I did!

I found a tutorial on SCS called Santa's drawer's that I used as a starting point for my treat holder. You can find the tutorial here.

Bare with me as I have a few photos of my finished treat holder so you get the full effect of my Valentine Drawers! *wink*!

The original tutorial had two smaller drawers on top but I wanted it to look more like the dresser in the picture so I made two of the larger ones. All the papers I used are from my 12x12 stash of CS and DP.

I decorated my drawers with images from Gina K's Heartily Yours Stamp set.

Here is a view from the top. The back of the dresser is made with Heart Nestabilities. I added a lace runner across the top of the dresser and made a little Valentine's to sit on top of it.

Here is a side view so you can see how I attached to lava lamp to the dresser and the sentiment banner.
Here is a picture with the drawers open. The knobs on the drawers are Tim Holtz's Idea-ology Hitch Fasteners.
Now I just have to figure what Valentine treats I want to fill those drawers up with!
Now I am going to send you on your way to the uber talented Sue Morris.
Thank you so much for hopping by and enjoy the rest of the hop!

Window to my heart

Happy Monday my friends!!!

I for one am always glad Mondays are over unless of course I have the day off of work then I want them to drag out! lol!

This afternoon I have a quick post and another shape card for you.

The base of the card is made with the largest Spellbinders Lacey Square die and the two largest rectangle dies.
I used four different stamp sets on this card, all from Gina K. The window frame is from Hip to be Square. The tree with the heart leaves are from The Giving Tree, the grass is from Hang in There and the sentiment is from Heartily Yours. The sentiment was cut out using the Spellbinders Heart dies.
The background was sponged with SU's Soft Sky ink using a cloud template I cut out of acetate.

Thank you for visiting me today!!
