I thought I'd share with you some Happy Mail I received and the project I made using these awesome new goodies! All of these Yummy stamps and twine came from Pink By Design. I have been wanting these stamps for a long time and finally broke down and bought them.

Stamps shown above: 

Coffee Background, Make it a Venti, Perk Up, Material Girl and Sewing Background

For my project today I decided to use the Coffee Set. I LOVE LOVE LOVE IT!!!

Coffee Card

Coffee Cup Sleeve

I used My Creative Time's new scallop circle die set to make the label.

I hope you have enjoyed my project today and that it inspires you to try something new. Your next stop on the Blog Hop is my very Creative friend EMMA! Thank you so much for stopping by and I hope you have a wonderful day!

Continuing with the theme of Firsts, I have a fun project for you today. While surfing my favorite blogs yesterday I came across Sarah @ www.pinkcricut.com and her fantastic Kusudama origami flowers. She has an amazing video tutorial that is a must watch.  

See it HERE.

Well, as soon as I saw these flowers I knew I had to try them right away.

These are the colors and patterns I decided to use...

Project Recipe:

Technique: Kusudama Flower Fold

Paper: Best Of K&Company Too Designer paper

2 sheets each of 5 different papers

Zots Glue Dots in Medium and Large

Martha Stewart Pink Bone Folder

Brown and Pink wire edge ribbon from Costco

Large Clear Buttons, Smaller Green Buttons

and Rhinestones

To make this decorative ball I made 12 Kusudama flowers

I hope you have enjoyed my project today and that it inspires you to try something new. Your next stop on the Blog Hop is my very Creative friend EMMA!  Thank you so much for stopping by and I hope you have a wonderful day!

DAY 1

Hello Friends and welcome to my Twins First Blogoversary!!! If you've come here from Giselle's blog you are in the right place, if not you can start this hop at my sister's blog HERE. 

I'm so excited to be celebrating this milestone with her and how fun that we are having a weekend long BLOG HOP!!!! A very talented group of crafters has joined us this weekend and created projects around the theme of FIRSTS. I hope you enjoy this long weekend celebration and the projects we have all created for Yvette!

For todays project I decided to try my hand at using Mod Podge for the very first time. I pick up a very cute acrylic candy holder at Michaels and thought it would look amazing covered in sparkly candies. 

Here is how I designed my project using my gypsy, the Celebrations and From my Kitchen Cartridges and my Expression...

then I cute everything out on my Cricut Expression using DCWV Glitter papers.

I then Mod Podged the acrylic candy box, added some ribbon and TA DA!!!

Here is my project in all it's glory... 

Not bad for my very first time!

The Mod Podge isn't perfectly clear and hides some of the glitter but I think overall it's a fun project that ANYONE could do.

And how CUTE is that tiny candy scoop! LOVE IT!

I hope you enjoyed my project today ~ now please hop on over to my very creative friend DORIS who is the next stop in the hop today!

And just in case you get lost along the way ~Here is the rest of the line up!
