Stampin Friends March Hop No Rules

3/15/2018

Welcome to the Creatin' With Kirsteen stop on the March Stampin Friends Blog Hop!

Weren't Kathie's projects awesome? You can navigate back to her blog, or forward to Melissa's...by clicking on the previous or next name at the bottom of this post to hop forward or back (you are at #8).

The theme this month is...no rules! Yay!!!

OR Yay????!!!!

Not having ANY idea where to start can be a hard one for me - and I know for a lot of other people too.

When I get low on ideas, I head to the catalogs. And, you know what - there are LOTS of ideas in there! The concept designers at Stampin' Up! always do a great job giving us so many projects between those covers - just waiting for us to use them as inspiration.

When it comes to Card Buffet time I don't have time to design all the cards - so I again I head to the catalogs for help. Last month my Card Buffet had 34 projects on it! Here are a couple of cards inspired by catalog samples using the 'A Good Day' Stamp Set and the Mini Embroidery Hoops - My interpretation is below.

And from those cards came a little Easter themed treat box idea - very simple. Just a 9" x 1" strip of designer paper wrapped around a 2" treat box filled with eggs, finished off with the bunny from the same stamp set.

This month we have an AWESOME giveaway!

Comment on EACH blog with your opinion on the projects and #SFMARCHBLOGHOP and you will be entered into a drawing for a FREE STAMPARATUS!

AND, I will give the winner a FREE personalized bag that you can store that tool in too! (Click HERE to check the bag out!)

So - remember to comment!

The cards would be great on a scrapbooking page. I am going to purchase the clear boxes for a bridal shower. So thanks for inspiring me.

Kirsteen, I love the cards, especially the pinkish/purpleish one(what is the actual color paper?), & the way you finished off the box. Thank you for sharing. #SFMARCHBLOGHOP

It's really clever to case the lovely spring cards from the catty. I love the wooden frames and they are gorgeous on the cards.
Your bunny box fits perfect to them. Great job!
