Crown for a Princess
My best friend is turning 40 today and what better way to celebrate her day than making her a princess. So here is a crown I made for her. The top of the crown is none other than our Round Tab punch. I wish I could take the credit in coming up with that, but I actually saw it a long time ago somewhere and I couldn't wait for the day I made a crown of my own.
Ingredients to make the crown:
Stamp Set from a local craft store
Ink: Melon Mambo
Paper: Whisper White, Pink Pirouette, Melon Mambo,Ice Cream Parlor Designer Series Paper and Quick Accents Pack
Accessories: Rhinestones from a local craft store, Silver Brads
Tools: Round tab punch, Birds & Blooms Sizzlits, 3/4" Circle Punch, Big Shot

Inspired by Stampin' Success
The color combo was totally inspired by the Color Coach. I know I wanted Peach Parfait, but I wanted a red and it let me know that Riding Hood Red was a good color match.

Punch Bunch Valentines
I dressed up the Punch Bunch owl by giving him googlie eyes, wings from the Bird punch and punched his vest by first stamp the polka dot background from the For All You Do and then I punched out the vest. So much easier than stamping and cutting out!

A chance to win
Mojo and Stampin' Royalty
Here is a picture of me and my stamping buddies at Dream Night. Last year, a fellow demonstrator, Dawn Rapsas, won a Workshop of a Lifetime with Shelli. To celebrate her success we were invited to join her celebration. What an incredible night. It was a chance to make new friends and catch up with old ones. One of the #1 reasons I love Stampin' Up! is the friendships I have made through out the years.

Blog Candy Winner
Thank you everyone for all the wonderful comments.
Cute Little Valentine's Day Flowers
To make the flowers, I punched and I cut into the center of the flowers. To make a hole in the center of the flowers, I used my old fashion hammer and eyelet setter. For the large scallop circle it was hard to get the crop-a-dile in the center. Plus, another advantage of using the eyelet setter, I was able to do a few flowers at once.
