Star Wars Planner Spread

Hi everyone! It's time for my Monday Planner Post.

Today I'm sharing this Star Wars spread for this week in my Recollections Planner.

Well, if you don't visit often, you might not know that I am a HUGE Star Wars fan!!! I have been a fan all my life and am super excited for the upcoming SOLO Movie!

I bought this Star Wars sticker kit from Lily and Meeko Designs and have been hording it for quite some time. When I saw it, I knew I HAD to have it! Why? Not only because it's Star Wars, but because I own that very Loungefly BB8 purse in the sticker kit!!!

I added in some emodi stickers from Coffee Monsterz Co and Once More With Love for added cuteness, along with the "work" font sticker I made.

Every other sticker is from the kit.

I hope you all liked my weekly spread in my planner and thanks for visiting!

Baby Twisted Gate Fold Card

Hi everyone! It's my day to post at SVG Cutting Files and I have a card to share. I used the NEW Twisted Gate Fold Card that will be available in the store today.

I thought this would be a super fun card to use as a Baby Announcement!

I cut the Twisted Gate Fold Card file with my Cameo and added the extra mat layers, mirroring one set to fit all the flaps.

I added a white mat over center mat and stamped the announcement sentiments using Jaded Blossom's Baby Planner stamp set.

I cut a Stitched Circle Die for the front and added the outfit cut with the Baby Dies.

To finish, I stamped the sentiment on the front and safety pins on the inside using the Snips and Snails stamp set.

I hope you all liked my card for today and thanks for visiting!

Have a great day!

May The 4th Be With You

Hi everyone! It's my day to post at Jaded Blossom and I am sharing these lollipop covers I made using my Jaded Blossom supplies.

I am a HUGE Star Wars fan!
May 4th is coming soon and so is the NEW Solo movie, so I thought these would be fun to make!

These were super quick to make and would be a great crafting project for children to participate in making.

I started by cutting the Sweet Treats Die and mat layers.

I stamped the sentiments onto tags cut with the Flag Dies 2 using the Candy Wars stamp set and glued them to the front.

I added the character stickers from the Star Wars sticker book that I got from Wal-Mart and tied them shut with some twine.

I hope you all liked my project for today and thanks for visiting!

May the 4th Be With You! 😃

I added a sticker from a MAMBI book to the center of the cover page before laminating it.
I got the monthly overview free printable from The Planner Spot and added some Coffee Monsterz Co stickers to it before I laminated it.
