My Pink Stamper Birthday Hop

Welcome to our My Pink Stamper Birthday Hop!  You should have arrived here from Missy's blog.  Or you can start at the beginning if you just started the hop.

For my project, I created an explosion box.  I have been wanting to do this since I made one at last year's Stampede.  I used Sweet Tooth Boxes to create my box and lid rather then measuring.  Gotta love shortcuts, right?


Materials Used:
  • Cricut cartridges Art Philosophy, 3 Birds on Parade & Sweet Tooth Boxes
  • My Pink Stamper, Punny-licious stamp set
  • Echo Park Playground cardstock
  • BoBunny ribbon
  • Battery operated tealight candle
  • Cardmaking Christmas frosting
  • Gimme glam jewels
  • Stampin' Up! Crystal Effects
  • White Signo gel pen

Your next stop on the hop is with Cristi.  Thank you for hopping along with us and I hope you have a blast celebrating birthdays with all your loved ones this year!

Here is the complete Blog Hop List in case you get lost:
