The money raised by those who came out for the 3-mile stroll supports March of Dimes research and programs that help moms have full-term pregnancies and babies begin healthy lives. Plus, it’s used to bring comfort and information to families with a baby in newborn intensive care.

Stamp Give-away Winner!

Thank you to everyone who participated and commented in the Stampin' some Creativity post. We love to hear from each of you. Congratulations to our winner!

Beth, if you don't receive an email from us, please make sure to contact us at blog@colorbok.com to arrange the delivery of your Heidi Grace and Cloud 9 Stamps.

Stampin’ some Creativity

Get inspired with our new Heidi Grace and Cloud 9 Stamps! There are some great new themes available to help round out your stamp collections with every occasion.  A couple of our favorites are featured below.

Great for invitations, gifts or favors, these Cloud 9 Baby stamps are perfect to help welcome new additions to any family!

Create your own patterned papers! Place groupings of stamps on an acrylic block and stamp on the paper of your choice. Try making two different groupings of stamps and stagger them while stamping to create a more detailed design. 

Adhere multiple layers of paper to create unique borders around your layouts. We used Xyron's Adhesive Application System which made it very easy to get an even adhesive coverage.

These Heidi Grace Wedding stamps are a perfect combination of light-hearted elegance. Celebrate the union of friends and loved ones with these adorable stamps!

Use silver ink to make patterns look a bit more sophisticated. Try using a different color for more fun, playful layouts. 

Mix and match accent colors for variation!

 

We love the new designs and hope that you do too! Find these and other great designs at your local JoAnn Craft Store. Comment below for a chance to win 5 of our new designs – including the two used in the projects featured above!  We'll announce the winners Wednesday, March 28th.

Boxes of Love

Looking for an alternative to the same old Valentine's Day cards?
Check this out!

Using one of our own fabulous scrap packs from Walmart and the Heidi Grace Template Project Pack, we created the most festive of little boxes to share with our favorite daycare cuties!

Just trace the template onto any papers you prefer, cut them out, and fold! You can embellish your little gift boxes any way you like. We made simple little flowers with a hand cut heart in the middle of each.

And just what do you fill these boxes of love with?

Rather than adding to the sugar high the kids will already be on, we chose to pack our mini-boxes with an assortment of fun finds.

We just went to our local supermarket and picked up balloons, bubbles, bouncy balls, jelly bracelets, jiggly lizards and an assortment of cute little stickers. The kiddos are sure to love these little boxes that came straight from our hearts!

Comment on this post for a chance to win one of two Heidi Grace Mini Box Template Project Packs used in this project!  Winners will be announced Friday, February 17th, 2012.  (Sorry, no international entries will be accepted.)

Flea Market - Get it While You Can Giveaway!

Happy Friday everyone!  Here's a chance to win a selection of Flea Market product that is about to become a little harder to find.  As of this week it has been refreshed by Antique Paperie in JoAnn Fabric and Craft Larger Superstores. The new collections are amazing, but with a lovely collection like Flea Market, we're often sad to see it go...

Did you have a favorite Flea Market item or make something particularly memorable with it?  We'd love to see it!  Remember all those wonderful home projects Seven Sisters did?  Just imagine what you could do if you won all this product!!

Comment and tell us which grouping you would rather have, one or two, by Tuesday, February 14th!  Winners will be announced that day.  (International entries will be accepted.)

Lucky Ladies

Enter to Win an Adorable Project Template Pack!

Need a quick, easy way to make boxes for party favors and gifts? Are you tired of endlessly searching online for an easy box template, only to lose it in the shuffle the next day?

Look no further, because our Heidi Grace Template Project Pack has you covered! With 12 super cute box templates, you can create a gift box for any occasion! The templates are made of nice, thick cardstock so you can use them over and over again. Plus, the directions are printed right on the template, making it super easy to follow! All you have to do is punch out the template, trace it onto whatever patterened paper you choose, and fold! It really is that easy! No measuring involved (a major plus)!

I made a few quick projects using 2 templates from this pack, along with some cute product available in stores right now!

For the first project, I used glitter papers from the Heidi Grace "Daisy Dear" line, available now at JoAnn Fabric and Craft Larger Superstores. Then I embellished it with a border edge stamp from the Heidi Grace Stamp Collection, also available at JoAnn's. Next, I added some adorable stickers and embellishments from the new Value Line at Target Stores. Everything is a dollar!

Here's an exact breakdown of what I used:

Next, I created a sweet little "lunch bag" style box that you could easily use as birthday party favor boxes, or just as a nice "just because" gift for your special little someone! I used papers from the Heidi Grace "One Sunny Day" line, also available at JoAnn Fabric & Craft Larger Superstores. The owl sticker is from the Value Line at Target stores. Isn't he so darn cute?

So, do you want to make all of these great projects?

Comment and tell us what you would make using this template pack by Tuesday, November 15th!  Winners will be announced on Wednesday, November 16th.  (Sorry, no international entries will be accepted.)
