Happy Towering Easter--O...

Apologies for the title but I just couldn't resist!!

A quick share today...

Along with my wishes to you and yours for a very Happy Easter ... and I hope that you are having a wonderful holiday break.... in glorious sunshine like we have in the UK at the moment!

So these are the Easter Treat Sweet Cups I have given out this holiday... 2 towers worth! There were a few more... but I handed those out last weekend before I remembered to take a photo!

So nice to be able to decorate something special (and so simply!!) so that my friends and family can feel special too! And I think they felt that way from their expressions at the time!

Though I think you can tell between those for the older generation and those for the younger!!

The older generation giving me the more positive & immediate feedback... lol!! Think the younger might have been expecting a HUGE chocolate egg or something!!

3D Thursday - Floral Romance Easter Sweet Cups

So these are why the Sweet Cups were actually out... as I am keeping the Easter makes simple this year... but I just couldn't resist dressing one up for Mothers Day for yesterday's post...

So these are the Floral Romance Easter Sweet Cups... the simple version! And there have been a lot of these made in these parts!!!

Love these Sweet Cups for Easter as they hold a decent amount of chocolate mini eggs! But what will you put in yours?

Finishing decoration care of Well Said (HAPPY), More Than Words (Easter), Layering Circle dies, Stitched Shapes dies, 1 1/2" Circle Punch and Pear Pizzazz 3/8" Shimmer Ribbon or Very Vanilla Gold Edged 3/8" Ribbon...

Wednesday WOW (Way of Working) with All Adorned - and a Tutorial ...

Another tip (or way of working!) for the lovely All Adorned stamp set greeting... let's make it even stronger in sentiment...

And how's about a mini step by step photo tutorial for you! For the Post It Note Cover Method of selectively inking a stamp... for those of you that like a name for things!! 

Cover the small words at the top with a post it note... so only BEST EVER words showing... 

 Ink up the "BEST EVER" words with your ink pad...

 Remove post it note...

And stamp...

So now we have... BEST EVER... MOTHER... well why not! 

MOTHER care of Thoughtful Banners... I just used a marker to just ink up the required word on the bottom-left sentiment... or FATHER in the one above will come in useful for my next classes...

                          

And more on this Sweet Cup project another day... 

Alternatively... you could ink up the BEST EVER using a marker pen too... but this way is easier... and quicker! And the "post it note cover method" would probably take the same amount of time for inking up the MOTHER part... 

Remember this lovely All Adorned stamp set is exclusively available for free with a £45 order during Sale A Bration... which ends this Sunday, 31st March... (which happens to be Mother's Day in the UK too)... so only for 4 more days!
