The start of a NEW holiday!

I spent the better part of my day today packing up all the Christmas decorations and pulling out my Valentines decorations.  Once again I have successfully confused my children as I was pulling out the Valentines items out of the closet.  Alexis told me at least 5 times that it wasn’t for another month and was this really necessary?  Jeesh!  🙂 I think she was so concerned because her birthday is just a week away.  My little girl will turn six very soon and she seems to think I will forget.  Tonight I proved her wrong.  We sat down and made the invitations to her party.  She was giddy with excitement. 

I used the Large Scallop Die Cut to make the base and then the Scallop #2 for the Kraft Cardstock and my main image.  I stamped Crazy for Cupcakes on the Kraft cardstock using Basic Black ink and then used markers, dazzling diamonds and that puffy stuff for the tops of the cupcakes.  This is when Alexis started dancing around my stamp room.  She thought this was "COOL"!  The Designer Paper comes from the Level 3 Hostess Simply Scrappin’ Kit as well as the Flower that is stamped at the top.  I also added a Button on top of the flower to give it a little more dimension.

Here is a closer look:

Once again, lots of dimensionals.  Most important, she loved them.  🙂

I also made a quick Valentine card tonight using A Happy Heart.  This set is in the Holiday Mini so it won’t be available too much longer.  Super set and fun to stamp! 

I used an eraser to make the polka dots with Whisper White Craft Ink on the bottom of the card. 

Have a super weekend. I will be working on swaps for Leadership this weekend.  Lots of stampin’ is in my future.  Whoo Hoo!
