You are Pricele$$ to me!
Sorry, AGAIN! I forgot to put Money or a gift card in the pocket so just imagine it is there :) We don't have $20bills just laying around our house when I need it!

Hi guys, Jillian at Princess and the Paper here today with a card I just LOVE, LOVE, LOVE.

Using Canvas Corp papers AGAIN, only this time the 6x6 paper pad which is a scaled down version of their designs. Using the Black and Kraft 6 x 6 pad I cut the swirly background to go on the Black card base. then a polka dot background layer for under my {die}signer Pocket die cut which is from my BRAND NEW {die}signs Custom Die Collection!!! I just love this pocket! It has so many possibilities!

The sentiment is from my brand new stamp set that coordinates with the pocket Money Money!

These new releases will be available on Friday on my A Jillian Vance Design Store!

They will also be offered as a package deal for extra savings!

The charm was pinned in with an AJVD Black Pear Pin. The Charm is a sneak peek of a sneak peek! Look for it in our next release! Black Rinkle Ribbon tops it off!

A Little Money for my Honey! ~ or Not!

A Little Money for my Honey! ~ or not!
Sorry, I like my mom forgot to put Money or a gift card in the pocket so just imagine it is there :)

Hi, Guys, Jillian from Princess and the Paper here. For this bright and cheery card I used Canvas Corp papers! I just love their classic designs and love how the diamonds and polka dots looked good together!

I used Spellbinders circles to cut the red polka dot then cut them in half. I then adhered them to the diamond paper and rounded the corners. A little Cherry Divine twine with a bow was added before I added my BRAND NEW {die}signs die ~ {die}signer Pocket in White to the front of the card. I used the border stamp with the bow icon stamped in Crimson Archival Ink and the sentiment in black. Stamps from my new Money, Money Stamp Set.

These new items will be posted on Friday for purchase!!!

Thanks for joining me today come back tomorrow for more Sneak Peeks!

Welcome Allie Gower, Guest Designer

Hello from Minnesota, my name is Allie Gower, of Well Trained Paper, and I had the pleasure of meeting Team Vance at CHA-Winter 2012. I was over the moon when Bunny asked me if I would like to guest design. Would I?!? I even got to pick the stamp set. I have to say, Mr. & Mrs. Mustache really said "come have a party with me." So I set out with some Grammy Party Plans! I stamped and embossed a pile of mustaches. I used a rainbow of colors. After stamping the image with embossing ink, I sprinkled the colors with a small palette knife. I poured the excess onto a sheet of scratch paper. I used the left over powder to do another set of mustaches, for my party tubes. The tiny face is stamped on a small circle, cut with Spellbinders Paper Arts Dies. The top hats are just stamped with black ink and cut out. All pieces are matted on Momenta papers, and then matted on different die cut shapes. This was an easy and fun project, and the kids were sure pleased with the results. Weren't the Grammy's great this year?

Thanks for looking today, and thank you, thank you to Bunny and Jillian! Supplies Used: Stamps - A Jillian Vance Design Tubes - SRM Papers - Momenta Dies - Spellbinders Paper Arts Ink and Embossing Powder - Close to My Heart Cupcakes - Cub Bakery (thanks, son!)

Bonjour Monsieur Moustache!

When Jillian told me she wanted a Moustache set, I was like "Oh that is a trend that will end soon". Well 4 months later, it is getting bigger instead of going away ~ so she designed the set and I love it! I used the die template to stencil the inside of the smaller {die}mond die.

Mr. & Mrs. Wedding Card

This is Nadia at Nadia's Beautiful Mess ~ Let me start by saying, I had a blast with this stamp set! The moustaches are so much fun! I couldn't pick just one or two stamps, so I went all out and started with a blank piece of paper and started stamping my heart away. I created my own pattern paper by randomly placing stamps all over the paper. I then added the "Mrs & Mrs." sentiments and made it a wedding card. Added black tulle and a gem for a special wedding touch.

Everyday Lunchbox Notes and Seals

Hello loyal followers! It's Nadia from Nadia's Beautiful Mess. Today I'm sharing with you sweet and simple lunchbox box notes. You can place these in your husband, wife or children's lunchbox before they head out for the day. All I used was leftover scraps and A Jillian Vance Design stamps - Sending My Love. The "SWAK" note can even be used to seal up a paper bag lunch! It's a simple thought that would go a long way. Sometimes my hubby writes a sweet message on the foil of my wrapped sandwiches, but now that I have created these, I will place them in the kitchen and we both can give each other sweet messages in our lunch!

I cut the cards 3 x 3, the scallop punch is 2 1/2 inches and the outer 1 1/2 inch circle punch the sentiments fit the 1 inch punch or the Epiphany Crafts 25 Round bubble!

The card on the left is My Creative Time's gift card die with a "flower" made out of 4 scallop circles folded in fourths. then a scallop 1 1/2 on top and the 1 inch circle with sentiment on top of that.

Middle heart card: was cut from the Spellbinders Scalloped Heart dies then a 2 inch circle punch and added some Divine Twine!

To make the card on the right: 3x3 card
1 1/2 inch squares with the opposite corners "chomped" and a paper punch button in the middle with some Divine Twine!

Thanks for stopping by and please leave me a comment!

My {little} Card Set

Hello!

Jennifer from Scrapping Under the Influence back again. This week we are making little projects using the A {little} Love stamp set.

For my project I decided to do some mini Valentines. In the center of each card is one of the stamps from Jillian's A {little} Love stamp set. I colored each of the stamped images before turning them into little epoxy buttons using the Epiphany Crafts round tool. These stamps are sized to fit perfectly under a round 20 epoxy bubble. The bubbles are adhered to the front of cards with a pop dot.

For more details and pics, check out my blog Scrapping Under the Influence.

Supplies:

A Jillian Vance Design A {little} Love stamp set

Echo Park Yours Truly 6x6 paper pad

Epiphany Crafts Round 20 tool and bubble caps

Tim Holtz Black Soot Distress Ink

Tim Holtz Festive Berries Seasonal Distress Ink

Martha Stewart Punch All Over the Page Scallop punch

Recollections Hearts
