Guest Designer....Jessica

Hey All!!

OH MY GOSH! My month of Guest DT posts for Jaded Blossom is officially over after this post today :( I had SUCH a wonderful time with the girls here! They are SO talented, kind, caring, and FUN! I will certainly miss being a part of their team! I hope I made them proud this month, and I hope to be able to jump into a Guest DT post again soon! Hopefully REAL soon!!!

For today's post, I wanted to show you the project we made for the School Nurse of Brandon's school.  Brandon has laryngomalacia and would end up needed a neb treatment at school, so he would spend a bit of time with Nurse Ann. This is something that happened from him being intubated at birth and he will have this until he is a teenager the doctor said. What it means is that his larynx will just collapse and he will have trouble breathing. He just needs a quick treatment and to catch his breath. It usually makes a "whooping cough sound" of cough which scares the people around him. A few of his teachers had told me that they thought he was choking! Nurse Ann would instruct the teachers about what happens to him during this time and she would make him feel right at home while he was having a treatment. This is a Thank You for her for taking EXCELLENT care of my kiddo when I could not be with him at school!

 Here is what I made for her:

 


Once again, these stamps make it SO personal!!

SUPPLIES:
Cutting Machine: Silhouette Cameo
SVG's-Bandaid-Silhouette Online Store.
Paper: School Day DCWV mat stack; Recollections
 Thank you SO MUCH for checking my blog out every day while I was guest designing!



Thank you Candace and Michelle for allowing me this privilege to work with you and your DT! I had a great time and cannot WAIT to do it again!!

Hope to catch you all Craftin' and Stampin'!

Guest Designer......Jessica

Hey All!!

Today is my 2nd to last guest design team post for Jaded Blossom and I wanted to show you another project I made to say THANK YOU to someone at my kiddos school!

For today, we said THANK YOU to my kiddos lunch lady! Brandon is Autistic and has issues with texture and with eating. There is one thing, and one thing only that he loved to buy at school: Trix Yogurt. He LOVED when I would give him money in the morning to get it! Last year, he would get VERY upset because by the time he went down for lunch, there was not any left. It would ruin his whole day. Well, one day, at the end of last year, Mrs. Judi, asked him why he was so upset in the lunch room. Brandon told her because all he wanted with his lunch was his yogurt. She came up to me after school and asked me if that was "normal". I explained to her all about his texture issues and how he just wanted to "buy" lunch like the other kids (even though I did send him with soup every day). She said that every day, she would save him one, no matter what! I thought that was so kind of her to do! And since Brandon is leaving this school, I just wanted to make her something to show my appreciation for looking out for my little guy!!!

Here is what I made:

Look how cute the lunch tray is!
SO cute how these stamps REALLY add that personal touch!

SUPPLIES:
Cutting Machine: Silhouette Cameo
SVG's-Lunch Tray-Silhouette Online Store.
Paper: Recollections


I hope this idea helps you to remember those that help you and your kiddos out during the school year! Be sure to come back tomorrow for my last guest DT post with Jaded Blossom!

Hope to catch you all Craftin' and Stampin'!

Guest Designer.... Jessica

This is my last weekend as the guest DT over at Jaded Blossom! I AM SO BUMMED :( I had SUCH a great time posting my projects and creating new projects with all the girls on the DT over there! I feel as though I got to meet new friends, and I will learn a lot from them! I do still have tomorrow and Sunday to do posts! So be sure to check back those two days!!!

For today's project, I was thinking of the people in Brandon's school who have helped him over the last 4 years. See, Brandon is leaving his "little" school now because it only went up until 2nd grade! He now moves on to the school right across the street from my house that goes from 3rd until 6th grade! So, I wanted to be SURE that I got all of the people in his school that have helped him a little something special that I made!

Today's project was for Mr. Jim. He is the schools custodian. He was ALWAYS so helpful to Brandon! Whenever it rained, he would stand at the front of the school to be sure the kiddos made it up the steps safely. He would make sure that the gates were locked for them to play safe in the school yard at recess, and when Brandon lost his little figure at school the one day, he stayed late to help us find it! He is a really great man, so I made him this to say thank you!!!

(It says: Our school SPARKLES because of you)

Cute little stamps on the bottom of the kisses-see the Custodian one??

I loved this broom!!

SUPPLIES:
Machine: Silhouette Cameo
SVG: Silhouette Studio- Broom
Paper: School Days Pack DCWV & Recollections

I hope the projects I made for this weekend will give you some ideas for next year for the end of school to give to those that help your child that you may not remember right away when thinking of little thank you's to give!! So be sure to check me back out on Saturday and Sunday before I am done my guest DT spot with Jaded Blossom!

Hope to catch you Craftin' and Stampin'!

Feel Better Soon

Good Morning!

Trixie here from Pink Glitter Studio.

I have a cute little treat to share with you today.

I used the Kawaii Bandaid from SVG Cutting Files and added a Peachy Keen Face from Sweet & Innocent Face Asst.

I used Jaded Blossom's 3x4 clear bags for the Chocolate Bandaids, the Fancy Topper Die and the sentiment is from Get Well Soon.


I added some Kraft Trendy Twine to the topper. 


Thanks so much for stopping by today.

Happy Summer!

Hello everyone! It's Crystal from Crystal's Creative Corner! I hope you are enjoying your summer!
 
Today is my day to post for the Jaded Blossom Design Team!
I have created 2 cards for you today!
 
The first one is fun for the summer season!
 
 
 
I used the stamp set Happy Summer for the sentiment and the Summer Cutie! I stamped her on the Journal Die from the Layered Frame & Journal Die
I colored her with Copic Markers and cut her tank top & shorts out of Echo Park A Perfect Summer and All About a Boy 6x6 paper packs. The sun paper is also from A Perfect Summer.
Last I added some Trendy Twine to the card, as well as some liquid glass to her sunglasses and popsicle. (it didn't come out well in the picture)
 
Next up I have a slider card from SVG Cutting Files
 
 
I used Jaded Blossom's Flag Die 2 for the flag, Jave Time for the sentiment and Funny Mail for the lips on the coffee lid and the heart.
 
I hope you have enjoyed my cards today!
 
Thank you for stopping by and Happy Crafting!

Card Organizer

Hi Everybody!
It's Jenny from Crazy About Cricut here!  I'm happy to say that it's time for more Jaded Blossom projects today!
 
I used the Jaded Blossom sets Calendar Candies, and Journal Calendar to create the perfect card organizer!

I also embellished it using the Simple Sayings 2 set, and the Curly Label Die.

*This card organizer is a cut from the Silhouette store :)



*I stamped the first 6 months on one side, and the other 6 months on the other side.


*The Journal Calendar stamp is perfect to be able to mark people's birthday during a certain month, or like the 4th of July like I did here.


I hope you liked my project! I'd love to see some of you make this and share it on the Jaded Blossom Facebook page HERE, or on my Crazy About Cricut Facebook page HERETFL, and hope everyone has a chance to craft today :O)

Aloha!


Hey everyone, hope you're having a great week!  This is Jaymie here and  I wanted to share a step card I made.  This is my first step card I have ever made and I thought it was a lot of fun! 

The "Aloha" sentiment is off of the Jaded Blossom Summer Candies set. The little scalloped shape is from their Candy Charms and Banners Die set.
Isn't this cute little Hawaii scene fun?  It is from a NEW Luau file that is being released FRIDAY (tomorrow!) by SVG Cutting Files

Here is a close up of the candy charm..

Step card base is from the Silhouette Store

I hope you enjoyed my fun little card today, thanks for stopping by!

Gamer Card

 Hey Everyone!
Jamie here to share the Father's Day card I made for my Husband!

Today I used the Father's Day set but I think the Nerd set would be awesome on this card too!



I stamped the sentiment on the insert of the slider card.
I drew the shapes on the buttons and wrote out the Select and Start. I also attempted to draw the Playstation symbol (LOL)


Here's what the card looks like when it's closed. This file is available from SVG Cutting Files.

Guest Designer Jessica of Craftin' and Stampin'

Hey All!!

Its time for another post from me as the Guest Designer at Jaded Blossom! I am starting to get sad because I have 3 more posts to go and then I am done my guest DT month :( BUT, I will still be posting in the Garden of Creativity and I will be buying up their stamps! Well, as much as money would allow! LOL!

All kidding aside, how about you take a lookie at my project for today??? This is a little decoration that I made up for the 4th of July. I found it in the Silhouette Store, and I INSTANTLY had an idea for it! 

I wanted to put Potpourri inside it, and hang it in my entry way for when people come over for the holiday (I have the BEST view of fireworks..right from my front porch)! I am SURE I could of put little jawbreakers, or M&M's in there, but I wanted the fresh smell instead for this!!!

Here is my project:

Isnt that too cute? Here are the supplies I used:
Jaded Blossom Stamps: Celebrate America
Dies: Candy Charms and Banners Die Jaded Blossom
Paper: Recollections
Potpourri-Dollar Store
Misc: Red and Blue Twine (American Crafts), Scotch Quick Dry
OK all!! I hope you come back to check me out again at the end of this month!!

Hope to catch you all Craftin' and Stampin'!

Guest Designer Jessica of Craftin' and Stampin'

 Hey All!!

Thanks for joining me for my Guest Designer Day at Jaded Blossom!!

So, remember I said I was TOTALLY busy and SWAMPED with projects I was working on for end of school? Well, it was also a project for Jaded Blossom! Today and tomorrow I will be showcasing some more of my projects using their new stamps this month (and some oldie but goodie ones)!

Well, like everyone else in the crafting world, I have OFFICIALLY jumped on the Vinyl bandwagon! And can I just say, I am LOVING it??? I stocked up on tumblers from Dollar Tree and I rounded up the vinyl I have collected over the years (and even some I was able to get for 50% off at Joanne's...SCORE!

So, getting the clear tumblers was not as easy I thought...I went to 8 to get a total of 18 of them! But, I managed to get 18 CLEAR which is what I wanted!

Here is the mug I made for my kiddos teacher:
 

This is the front...I tried to do it in our school colors of Green and Gold, but the closest to Gold I had was Orange


I wanted the A+ Teacher to stand out, so that is why I chose white!


How super cute is the ABC???

Supplies:
Cutting Files: All on my Cameo-Crayon (Lettering Delights), ABC (SVG Cutting Files), Apple (Silhouette Store) DOTTY Font (Silhouette Store)
Vinyl-Oh My Crafts & Cricut Vinyl
Hershey Kisses
Shredded Paper-Recollections

I have been tossing and turning about adding ribbon to the top of it. I have seen a bunch of people do that, but I think it will take away from the treats on the inside!!

 I hope you enjoyed my project today!

Thanks so much for stopping by! Hope to catch you Craftin' and Stampin'!

Dad's Secret Stash!

Hey there! :)
It is Crystal from
Crystal's Creative Corner
Today is my day to post for the Jaded Blossom Design Team!
 
I decided to make a litte something for my dad for Father's Day! ;) He has a sweet tooth and my mom never likes to buy him candy because it doesn't last a day...so I made him his own secret stash!
 
 
 
I used the Treat Tag Die and stamped the Happy Father's Day from the Father's Day stamp set, and then used Secret Stash for the rest of the sentiments on the tag. 
 
I filled a Starbucks Frappuccino bottle FULL of mini candy bars! I used the candy stamps from Father's Day and used the dies from Candy Charms & Banners for on each of the candy bars.
I also covered the lid with Simply Black Rumple Ribbon and then added a bow of Crazy Coral for a touch of color!
 
Thanks for stopping by today & please leave a comment-- I love to hear from  you :)
