Babies

Hello.  It is the first of March and hopefully Spring is right around the corner.  We are expecting snow tonight.  Possibly 6 inches or more.  We will break the record of the most snow in a Winter season with this snow.  I can't believe there is so much snow on the ground.

I have a couple baby showers coming up.  I decided to go ahead and make at least one card so I will be ahead.  I don't want to be making the cards the day of the showers.   Both of the showers are for baby boys.

I saw this dresser card on Silhouette Online and I thought it would work great.  It is suppose to be pink but I changed it to blue and added the yellow star.  I also added the rattle and the bottle.  It is a simple card but I think it will be great for the shower.

I am going to use the card in the Creative Cutting baby challenge.

Have a great Saturday.

Imagine That

Hello once again.  Every month, I tell myself that I will do the Imagine That monthly challenge and every month, I am late doing this challenge.  I am determined to get the card done early in March.

By the way, Imagine That has changed their website.  I think it looks great.  Check it out if you haven't been over there lately.

Until then, here is my card for February.  I loved this image.  It is a great digital stamp for Valentine's Day, so even though it has passed, I made a Valentine's Day card.  I left the bear white so it could be a polar bear.  I wish I had some Liquid Applique but I am out and I am going to wait until next winter before I buy any so that it would dry out.

I used the sketch F1914 from Repeat Impressions for the card.

Have a great evening.




Birthdays

Hello.  It is hard to believe that today is the last day of February. 

I needed some birthday treat boxes so I cut out some of the cupcake boxes.  You can find the cutting file at Silhouette Online.  When making cards and boxes, pink is my favorite go to color. 

I had all of the cupcakes cut and put together.  I was ready to write my post and every thing when it dawned on me that I had a little Whimsie Doodle girl carrying flowers that would go with the cupcake.  So I went back to my Silhouette Cameo and printed and cut some of them. 

Since I am still stuck on Action Wobblies, I added one to the back of the little girl.


I plan on using this box for the following challenges:
   Whimsie Doodles - Anything But a Card
   Little Miss Muffet - Anything Goes
   Tuesday Throwdown - Anything Goes
   Action Wobble - Birthday

I still need to make a card for Imagine That's monthly challenge, so I will be back in a little while with something else.

Have a great afternoon.
Yes, we are expecting more snow this weekend.

Action Wobbles

Good evening.  I have a little friend that has a birthday coming up.  I thought a action wobble card would be a great card for a little six year old boy.

I just love the birdbrain digital stamps from 'From The Heart'.  This image is the Stamp of the Month.  I printed it a little small but it looks good on this new rocker step card.

I have always liked the rocker cards (I know I make a lot of them) and when my sister showed me the rocker step card, I had to have the pattern.  I googled it and find the pattern on Paper Craft Kits.  It was my first time there and she has some great patterns.  I bought a few more to go with the rocker step card.

I am going to use this card in the following challenges:
   Little Miss Muffet - Birthdays
   CMC Copic Challenge - Anything Goes
   Little Tangles - Monochromatic
   Digi Darla - Masculine
   From The Heart - Stamp of the Month

Have a great night.  Hope to see you tomorrow.

Cut It Up

Hello again....I have had this snowflake card from Bird's cards opened on my computer for several days.  I really liked the way the snowflake is cut in half to open the card.

I didn't want to just have the snowflake so I decided to use this print and cut rabbit on the front and add an action wobble on the back of it.  The rabbit is from Silhouette Online.  I was surprised how well it printed.

The white snowflake is cut from glitter paper.  This is the first time I have used glitter paper on my Silhouette Cameo.  I wasn't sure what to put on the panel behind the snowflake so I ended up using my Stampin' Up snowflake wheel and stamping more snowflakes.

This is my card for the Cut It Up challenge.  It is late since I was having problems with my cutter.  The theme this week is 'Winter Fun; Blue and White'.  We have two wonderful sponsors, this week.  They are Fleurette Bloom and Joy's Life.  Great prizes so make sure you go over and enter a card/project.

I am also going to enter this card in the Action Wobbles challenge.  The theme is use a print and cut image.

 I had meant to get more done today but it didn't work out.  Have a great evening.




Clear It Out

Hello.  It has been almost a week since I have posted any thing.  I just haven't been in the mood.  I am going to change that tonight. 

In the meantime, I have a card to post.  I made this card and then forgot to post it.  It was one of my last valentines.    I purchased both the card and the inside from Silhouette Online.  The hearts on the front of the card are made with glitter paper. 

The inside is just too cute.  I love the inside pop-up patterns but I don't normally use them because it makes the card thick and hard to fold.  This one didn't.  I am going to have to look and
see what else have in my library.

I am entering the card in the following challenges:
   Clear It Out - Red
   Repeat Impressions - Hearts
   Craftin Desert Divas - Glitter
   Love To Create - Anything Goes

I hope you have a great afternoon.  I will hopefully be back later with something new.

Paper Shelter

Hello.  I love love love 'The Paper Shelter'.  Their images are so great and cute.  I discovered their site a couple of months ago and I can't get enough of their digital stamps.  Now I just need to find time to play with them.

I took a few minutes today to play with 'Just Me' .  She is so precious and I am going to use her as a 'Just Because' card. I used the sketch over at Repeat Impressions. 

I am going to finish coloring the extras I printed and I will try to get back later with something else.  Have a great afternoon.
