Creating on the Run: Monday Montage Week #200

Hello! I am so very glad you are here for our 200th Monday Montage Blog Hop!!! I am so grateful for the opportunity to know these wonderful ladies that I hop with. Not only are they talented stampers and crafters, they are the best, most kind and wonderful people! I've said it before, and I'll say it again-it's and honor and a privilege to hop with these ladies! And thank you to all of you that have hopped along with us!

We are commemorating this momentous occasion with a celebration theme for all of our projects! So, I hope you enjoy this fun-filled hop!

As soon as we decided on this theme, I thought of The Hippo Happiness Stamp Set and the Hippo & Friends Dies. These coordinating products are filled with fun images and a wide variety of dies that are perfect for celebrating! And they are great for multiple types of celebrations! This is what I came up with!

These projects were so fun to make! I also used the Give it a Whirl Dies to make the card interactive and I am so happy with the results! The Give it a Whirl Dies are awesome!!! There is a bit of a learning curve, but my fellow hopper Melissa Stout has an awesome video tutorial that helped me out so much! Thanks Melissa! Here is a close-up of the card!

The darling little images in the Hippo Happiness Stamp Set have my heart! I pulled all of the colors for the images from the diagonal striped paper in the Pattern Party Designer Series Paper (DSP) to make this card. The colors are so cheerful and happy! And by the way, I love that paper pack! It has so much variety and it is a big pack! There are four sheets of each double sided design-so cool! It can be earned by redeeming Stampin' Rewards so you can get it free with a qualifying order! Here is a close-up of the adorable pillow box:

This tiny, oh so cute little treat holder is made with the Pretty Pillow Box Dies. Have you seen the Pretty Pillow Box Dies? They are in the July-December 2021 Mini Catalog and you don't want to miss out on these amazing dies! Just look at the cuteness!!!

And finally, the tiny pinwheel cupcake toppers!!! I love all things tiny, and these little pinwheels are no exception! They are made with nothing more then a bit of paper, a brad and a toothpick, but they add so much to a cupcake! And they are quick and easy to make-one DIY cupcake topper that is do-able for any party! Check back Tuesday for a quick tutorial for these cutie-patooties!
