I'm over the MOON for you!

Hello, today I am sharing with you what I made for my son's 3rd grade class for Valentines. I know Valentines is over, but it's still February!!  I had so much fun making these cute tags and putting together these bags of goodies. 

I was so happy when my son said he wanted a space theme this year, I got to use the Space Explorer stamp set from My Favorite Things for the first time since I got it!

These little astronauts turned out so adorable. I colored them just the way he wanted me to. When I asked him what color he wanted his space suit to be he said Red, with blue accents. I used some crayola and other no name brand pencils for the coloring. I don't use my really good Prismacolor pencils for the little kids, they just throw things like this in the garbage. Most people wouldn't have shaded and done as much detail as I did, but I figured it was great practice! I want to improve in my coloring so I went all in on 25 of these little astronauts!  

I used the Falling Stars Stencil from Simon Says Stamp with a white pencil to add some light stars in the background for a simple galaxy. I added a moon on the bottom of the circle tag with some scrap gray paper that I had in my stash, using a gray pencil I lightly added some moon craters to give it more detail and hopefully make it look more like the moon. I stamped my sentiment on it with Lawn Fawn Jet Black Ink. 

I used the coordinating dies of the stamp set to cut out my astronauts and adhered them with Tombow Mono Multi glue, I punched a small hole and tied it to the bag of goodies (milky way candy bars, 2 glow sticks, and a pencil with  a fun star eraser topper) with some red ribbon. 

I love how they turned out, and hope I get to play with this stamp set again, it has the cutest images in it! 

Thanks for visiting, have a great day and happy crafting!!

Be Mine Valentine Box-SSS Wednesday Challenge

Good day all, today I am sharing a fun project that I made for the Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge which is to make anything but a card. They are showcasing products from We R Memory Keepers and I just happen to have a few things of theirs. 
I like how easy they are to make and they are the perfect size to fit a yummy treat with maybe some lip gloss or earrings, etc..  I will be making several of these for some good friends for Valentine's.

I made these little boxes using the We R Memory Keepers Envelope Punch Board from an old Laura Bassen video tutorial. I also used a We R Memory Keepers Embossing folder on the white strip to make some thick stripes. I stamped the hearts and sentiment using Memento Tuxedo Black Ink and my MISTI. I used my Black Wink of Stella  brush marker on the black part of my big heart to give it some sparkle. Speaking of sparkle I added some Crystal Clear Sequins and Silver Heart Confetti from PPP with my Ranger Multi Medium Matte. I adhered the big heart with some mounting foam tape for some dimension.  On the back I secured my flap with a little Velcro circle. 

I tried to provide links to most of my supplies, I mostly get them from Simon Says Stamp but there are some I get from amazon, or from the manufacturer.

Thanks for visiting my blog today, Happy Crafting!
