Royal Treat Box

Happy Friday Everyone!! Candace and Michelle here.. before we get to our guest designer, Candace's (Scrappin' 2 Little Princesses) project, we have a couple announcements.

First, we are sad that our designer Ashley has decided to leave the Jaded Blossom team. Something about focusing on School, geesh priorities people! haha. Just Kidding! Ashley was an awesome designer! You will still see her creations in the Garden of Creativity from time to time if she can step away from homework :)

Second announcement, We were so blown away by Candace's projects this month and how well she fit in with the team that we've asked her to stay as a permanent designer, yay! So you will be seeing lots more from Candace in the Jaded Blossom world! We'd love for you to give her a warm welcome! Now on to her last project as a guest designer!

Hey everyone! Candace from Scrappin' 2 Little Princesses here with my very last post as a guest designer here at Jaded Blossom! :( BUT the great news is that I now get to be a permanent member of the team!! Sooo exciting!! I can't wait to share MORE Jaded Blossom projects with you all!! :)

Recently my girls had a Princess Party and I was ITCHING to use my new Royal Candies stamps, so I put together this fun castle treat box!

Since my oldest daughter is allergic to dairy, I had to use my candy stamps on something other than chocolate kisses. Starburst candies worked perfectly, and they were a hit at the party!!

Here is what I for this project...

- Royal Candies stamps from Jaded Blossom

- Candy Charms and Banners dies from Jaded Blossom

- Castle Treat Box from SVG Cutting Files

- Silver Shimmer twine from The Twinery

- Colorbox Fluid Chalk Ink

- Martha Stewart Coarse Glitter

Thanks so much for stopping by today!! Have an awesome weekend!!

School House Rocks!

Hi Everybody!

Jenny from Crazy About Cricut here, and it's time for more Jaded Blossom projects today! We're heading back to school in our house, so I wanted to give some always needed supplies for my kids teachers. And crafters can't just hand stuff over, we gotta make it look pretty! Here's how we're delivering ours:

*Jaded Blossom - Lunch Box Notes w/Die set, School Rules stamp set

*Sweet Tooth Boxes Cricut cartridge - house and all layers

*The Royal Shoppe - Cosmo Cricket ruler washi tape, Bo Bunny Double Dot paper

*Core'dinations - solid cardstock

*crayons, gluesticks, index cards, black whiteboard markers

*white gel pen for stitching

*I embossed "School Rules" onto the front door, and used a brad for the doorknob.

*Here's a peek at some of the supplies I put inside.

*I also stamped "ABC" across the top with the School Rules stamp set.

*On the other window, I stamped a couple of the little faces from the Lunch Box Notes w/Die set.

*I also thought the rule washi tape was perfect to go along the bottom :)

*I was actually able to fit quite a bit of stuff inside!

I hope you liked my project! I'd love to see some of you make these and share it on the Jaded Blossom Facebook page HERE, or on my Crazy About Cricut Facebook page HERE.

I also wanted to share a peek at what's coming up.............

I am soooooooooo stinkin' excited! This is going to be another amazingly fantastic release!!

Baby Shower Favors!

Good Morning everyone!
It is Crystal from Crystal's Creative Corner!

I am super excited to share with you my Jaded Blossom project for today!

I used the new Sweet Baby to make baby shower favors for my dear sweet friend who is expecting.

I used the Jaded Blossom 3x4 bags, Fancy Topper Die, Flag Die 2 and Baby Candies for the bottoms of the kisses!

The animals are from Miss Kate Cuttables and the twine is from Trendy Twine!

Here is a look at all the different animals I used.

I also made another favor using SVG Cutting Files seed packet file..

Inside are a packet of seeds. I decorated the front with the sentiment from Sweet Baby stamped on the Curly Die, then used the hands and feet stamp from the same set.

The baby bottle is from Icon Candies!

I hope you enjoyed my projects today!

2 Cards and Treats!

Hi Everybody!

Jenny from Crazy About Cricut here, and it's time for some more Jaded Blossom projects today! Didn't you just love all the new stamps last week??!! It was another amazing release, and I hope you all enjoy playing with your new goodies :) And now onto my projects for today!

I love how cute the Jaded Blossom image stamps are, and how you can create so many different types of projects with them! Today I wanted to share 2 cards that I made, and highlight the matching favors that I had previously made. Here are the details:

*Jaded Blossom - My Favorite Wizard stamp set, Fancy Topper Die

*Core'dinations - solid cardstock

*chevron cardstock from my stash

*Copics and chalks for coloring

*Crystal Laquer

*One of my favorite things to do with this image is add crystal laquer onto his glasses. LOVE the added dimension!

Here's a picture of the Harry Potter Treat that I had made using the My Favorite Wizard stamp set. You can find the original post for the Harry Potter Treats on my blog HERE.

The next card I wanted to share is this cute s'more card. Here are the details:

*Jaded Blossom - Got S'mores? stamp set

*Art Philosophy Cricut cartridge (scalloped square)

*The Royal Shoppe - Bo Bunny Double Dot paper

*Core'dinations - kraft cardstock

*I found the card layout on Pinterest, and thought it was cool!

*I added Crystal Laquer to the chocolate for that "melted" look, yummy!

*The shadow look on the sentiment was actually a mistake. The first time I stamped it, it was too light. I was happy with the look after stamping over it in the darker ink :)

Here are 2 s'more treats I had previously made:

This treat is using the Got S'mores stamp set. You can find the original post for this treat on my blog HERE.

This treat is using the Teacher Appreciation stamp set. You can find the original post for this treat on my blog HERE.

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