  Welcome to the May Release Emma's Birthday Month Party Hop!!! Today's project includes the new Tag Dies, Fun Pockets, along with a couple of previous releases you may recognize. I made this tooth fairy pocket card. 

But I didn't stop at just the card. I wanted to make a little something for the tooth too. I came up with this shaker box top watch tin using the tooth stamp on shrink plastic to make filler for the shaker. So cute!! 

And a drawstring organza favor bag to hold the tooth......

...which tucks neatly inside the little watch tin shaker! :) 

To fit the folded bill inside, I cut two pockets, attaching one atop the other using foam tape just along the sides and bottom edges. I used two thicknesses of tape to make sure the pocket would be wide enough to easily accommodate the folded bill. 

I hope you can see it in the photo. I used the tiny wings from the Happy Mail set and clear embossed them before adding the tooth on foam tape to the outside of the pocket.

Day 4, the last day of sneaks before the big hop tomorrow!! Are you ready?? You're gonna love this release!! Today I'm featuring the new Celebrate Good Times stamp and die set, and the new large Tag Dies. I LOVE these!! When I decided on the paper I wanted to use, I knew I wanted to do a banner to match. But I wasn't sure how I was going to do it. It wasn't working with just one tag. Aha! Why not use TWO tags! I overlapped the tops so the pretty scallops would be on either end, and viola, problem solved! Now there is room for the pretty banner....

 .....for ice cream.......

 .....for Courtney's initial.....

 ....and for a chocolatey cupcake too! Doesn't the frosting look real! Liquid Applique. I love this stuff. I use white for snow, and the brown is perfectly chocolatey and looks almost good enough to eat. ALMOST - really, don't eat it, K? ;)

But then another dilemma. How to make the card stand up when it's one sided with no folds. I scoured youtube and google and pinterest looking for an idea to make an easel without a die. No luck. Then I got a brain flash!! Worked out beautifully don't you think?!

And it folds flat for mailing too. Perfect! :)

We are on Day 3 of Sneak Peek Party week! I hope you're keeping up with us! LOL For my project today, I've used the new Fun Pockets dies. Isn't this the cutest little thing! I combined it with the Pain, Pain, Go Away stamp set and petals dies for a sweet get well card.

Look in the pocket.....it's a tissue! A real tissue! Notice the pointed shape. I folded the tissue several times, then cut the full thickness using the pointed end of the other pocket die. CUTE!

From the Pain, Pain, Go Away stamp set.

Flowers using the MCT Petal Dies, punches, and leaves. Can you see the glossy accents on the heart?

And finally, the inside message. I ran across this poem online and it could not have been any more perfect for my card today!

Hello

Welcome to another Scrapbuggy Tuesday! Today's card is a simple one using shapes for unexpected purposes. These birds are not birds at all. The cloud, nope, not a cloud. Nor is the grass really grass. Let me explain.

Look closely at the birdies...they are actually made from heart shapes!!! Cut the heart in half and you have two birds! Cut a smaller heart in half for their wings, and one smaller yet for their beaks. Isn't it cute!? Not my original idea, but one I thought was worth sharing. You can draw the legs with a marker if you prefer, but I used the sign posts from the QK Billboard Sign dies.

The cloud and grass though are my ideas. The cloud is from the QK Reuse Gift Set...

...and the pretty grass is one of the Lifestyle Crafts Edges.
