A Peak Inside Our Queen for A Day Event

Serenity Stampers-
Diana Sulzbach, Kendra Timpson, Leslie Sharpe, & Lora Shehi and myself brought together a variety of guests that were pampered Stampin' Up! style
and were Queens for A Day!

Each guests had a bottle of water and one of these goodies at their station
This is the 2 tag die with the stamp set Morning Cup sentiment on top filled with 2 sleeves of tea.

They also received a beautiful bonnet filled with embellishments that they could use during the event or take home!

DSP: Beyond the Garden (NEW in SMC)
CS: Daffodil
BS: Large Circle Scallop with Pear Pizazz twill ribbon
I used my empty embellishment holders along with the Mambo pom pom trim around the the top of the lid. Of course the sentiment was " Queen for a Day" from the You're a Gem stamp set from Occasions Mini catty

Below are the projects we made at our 4 rotating stations

Ice Cream Parlor Scrap Book Page

Baskets & Blooms basket

Fabulous Florets (SMC) embossed card

My personal favorite-
Sail Away & Open Sea Stamp sets
with the NEW DSP Nautical Expedition from the NEW SMC
Leslie Sharpe taught this station and it was one of the favorites!

Lora Shehi at the head of the table was our host with her amazing venue
We could not have done it without her! Thanks again Lora

We had an awesome raffle basket and door prizes

Here is our raffle basket (valued at $125.00) winner Andrea Barr

What is a Wedding Without Some Petals

My friend Deb Brown and I created this ensemble a few weeks back for a friend of hers who is getting married. We had the most fun....
The wedding dress was cases from Lisa Young's Control Freak's Wedding Blog Hop tour. But the man version is our original creation. Whoo Hoo!

check Lisa's out here: http://addinkandstamp.blogspot.com/2011/03/control-freaks-blog-tour-wedding-theme.html

These projects will be featured at my June Bride's & Babies Stamp Camp

I came up with the cake idea at the same time I was making the bonnets for our Queen Event. Doesn't this look like a wedding cake? I used my empty embellishments containers to make these.

The little hearts on the top were a collaborative effort with my team, Leslie Sharpe came up with the design for the top. She is so creative!
Join us at the June Bride's & Babies stamp Camp and learn how to make these awesome wedding gifts and favors!
