These flowers started out as 2 1.25" x 11" strips of paper that I punched with an eyelet border punch. I then sponged with ink on the tips to give a little color. The video for this can be found on fellow demonstrator Patty Bennett's site here.
I'd love to see your version of the paper flower. Email me with websites or samples of what you did.

I saw this idea online somewhere. I really should learn to write down where I find ideas. Usually by the time I get around to doing them I've misplaced where I got the idea from. I've been playing with my Big Shot a lot lately. I was looking at the recycle pile at work and thought I could do something really fun with the cans. So I decided to make Daisy magnets out of them. I think they turned out great. What do you think!!!
The magnet on the left is made out of FANTA soda cans. The one in the middle is Dr. Pepper cans and the one on the right is Arizona Ice Tea cans.
Have I talked you into the Big Shot yet. Come on! You know you want one!!! Order HERE if you can't resist the call of the Big Shot.

I was blog hopping and saw this cute little box I just had to CASE (copy and steal everything) from a fellow demonstrator. IF it was you please let me know so I can give you proper credit. All I needed to make this was some cardstock designer paper and of course my Sizzix dies. It came together in about 10 minutes. I think I'm going to use it for a hostess gift at my upcoming workshop at the end of the month. Going to fill it with ribbon and punched cs pieces.
Ingredients for Project CS: Basic Black/Whisper White - DSP: Night and Day - Sizzix Dies: Daisies #2(#114520)/Top Note(#113463)/Matchbox(#114890) - Other: Filigree Brads9(#112577) and Sticky Strip.
Directions are pretty self-explanatory but if you need to email me with any questions at stampinintheson@gmail.com
WANNA BE MY NEXT HOSTESS?...I've got 3 more of these boxes left.

I really love how versatile this Sizzix die is. It comes with four different flowers. I used it to make a candle holder and the pins you see below. This picture kind of gives you the approximate sizes of the flowers from the die.
INSTRUCTIONS:This was made using roof flashing. You can buy a 6" x 50 ft roll of the stuff at any home improvement store. I used my flower folds die and cut out the 3 largest flowers. I then ran those through my embossing folder for some texture. Next I took a Real Red re-inker and some rubbing alcohol on a cotton ball and rubbed over metal to color it a little. Sealed with a clear acrylic spay so the color wouldn't come off.
These were ALSO made using the flower folds die. This time we only used the 2 smallest flowers to make these pins The top one I made at a class at my friend Anne's. It uses all cotton fabric. The bottom 2 use upholstery fabric and have a little more dimension and body to them. IF you're gonna make these use the upholstery fabric if you have the choice. It works so much better. OH yeah be careful with glue guns. I have a big nasty blister to prove I wasn't careful.

Our customers got to make this Jr Legal Pad note pad. We also included a matching pen and the coaster with calendar you see below. I'm lovin the new in-colors this year and how well they go with the existing ones.

Until Tomorrow...STAMPIN in the SON!!!!! jenniAnother thing we always like to do at stamp camp is make a couple of items other than a card. This camp we did 2 different 3D items. This was one of them. We found the idea on-line and totally CASEd it. This box is made with the Big Shot and the scallop envelope die. We then added four 3x3 cards for customers to make.
