STAMPIN' UP! TRIPLE LAYER PUNCHES!
I love the two new Triple Layer Punches available in the Stampin' Up! Summer Mini Catalog! For this card I used the Blossom Bouquet Triple Layer Punch and the Doily Triple Layer Punch.
The middle of the flowers on this card are made from the centers of the Doily Triple Layer Punch, and I like the look they give the flowers.

BOLD BLOSSOMS!
With all the rain here in Michigan my flowers are growing like wild, and they remind me of this Bold Blossom stamp set~~just fresh and fun and bright....
I added a little "bling" to my flowers with some rhinestone jeweles, and I love the little butterfly!
Have a great weekend and I hope you have some sunshine to enjoy!

TOOL BOX PROJECT!
Well, a couple of weeks ago I saw a great little tool box with a note holder and a post-it-note-pad holder, and I really thought it would make a great Father's Day gift. After some sleuthing, I found it was one of those patterns you had to join a class in order to get. SO, I turned to my demonstrator friends, and we decided it could be done without paying for the entire class. I set out to prove them right!
I wanted a box that would hold the note holder, the post-it-note-pad holder AND some cards. Here is what we came up with~~and, yes, it will hold four cards and the two little note holders!
I cut some scrap paper to 2"x3" and then designed this little box to hold the papers.
This is the post-it-note-pad holder I designed. When the demonstrators got here to make the project, Nancy had a much easier pattern for this little post-it-note-pad holder. I was way glad because the pattern I came up with was more than a little hard to do.
Check out the post below to see the four cards we made for this tool box!

'THAT MICHELLE'S' CUPCAKES!
Last Saturday I was fortunate enough to be able to spend the day in the Rubber Room with some of my awesome demonstrator friends. We made a great little tool box project for Father's Day (which I will share with you tomorrow). The best part for me, though, was all the goodies the demonstrators brought to share for lunch! Keri made some great little square pretzels with peanut butter sandwiched between two pretzels and then dipped in chocolate, along with lots of cookies. Caroline brought the moistest Ghiradelli brownies with creamy frosting. Linda shared a sort of waldorf salad made with spinach, apples, toasted pecans and a light dressing (sure it was way healthy ;o). Nancy brought along a cabbage salad with asian noodles, nice and crunchy and fresh. And "That Michelle" brought these cute little cupcakes she put in tiny flowerpots. She used the Blossom Bouquet Triple Layer Punch to make the flowers on the top (she put the flowers on a popsicle stick).
Of course, after the festivities, I needed a nap because I made a pig of myself; and I also needed a walk because my booty seemed to grow a bit after that meal.
Thanks ladies for taking such good care of me!

FABULOUS FLORETS WITH BEYOND THE GARDEN!
Here is a quick card made with some awesome items available in the Stampin' Up! Summer Mini Catalog!
I embossed the flower in the Fabulous Florets stamp set with some Tangerine Tango Embossing Powder and then I used another flower/stem stamp in that same stamp set for the stem part of my flower and embossed it in Wild Wasabi. Paired that image up with some Beyond the Garden Designer Series Paper, and there you go!
