Cherries anyone?

I can't resist a good deal especially when it is an adorable stamp and since Stamping Bella was offering 25% off this cute chick I had to get it.  The sale is only for the month of March so if you love this little Cherry Chick you need to go grab it.  I really love all their chicks. Thanks for stopping by!

Hear me Roar!

I have had this set for sometime now and have no idea why I haven't touched it until now.  I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE these adorable little guys. After I colored them I decided I would just go ahead and use the same paper for all of them and challenge myself to get a theme going. These Loveable Leopards  make the cutest little cards don't you think? They are from My Favorite Things.








                                                               Have an awesome day!

What's inside the Bunny Box?

Yay! I finally finished my bunny box made from The Stamp Doctor's A2 Box for Cards.  It seems I am always making cards that are too thick to fit in an envelope and this box is perfect for those fat cards.  It also can be used for Easter Treats (which I haven't bought yet).  I used the Nested Oval Dies and the Stitched Nested Oval Dies to cut the window from The Stamp Doctor's Paper Pack Easter#1 paper, then cut out a bunny from the Bear-Bunny Paper Piecing Dies.  I decided to have the Bunny looking into the box so I didn't use all the pieces that come with this versatile die. The grass is from the Grass Tops Die and I cut out eggs from the same Paper Pack Easter#1 set. The heart swag on top is from La-la Land Crafts called the Heart Garland Die. Fun little box that I definitely will use tons!  Thanks for dropping by, happy crafting!

Clean Kitty

I finally got around to playing with my March La-La Land Crafts Club kit.  Poor kitty got stuck in the washer and I think his friend thinks it is a purr-fect place for him.  Love the dies in this kit, I know it is hard to tell but the washer door is popped out like the newer models with a shaker bubble. Have a crafty weekend!

Happy Egg Hunting

With Easter right around the corner I thought I would hop to it and make an Easter card.  Now that I am done I am craving chocolate.....wouldn't you know.  Almost everything I used is from The Stamp Doctor.  The paper is from the Paper Pack Easter #1, on the cover I used the Large Chocolate Bunnies Die, the Grass Tops Die, the Nested Oval Dies#1 and the Stitched Oval Nested Dies#1. The bunny inside is made using the Bear Paper Piecing Die and the Bunny Add-On Die. Grass is from the Egg Carton CIB Add-On Dies and the inside I used the Nested and Stitched Oval Dies again.  It was a very therapeutic morning for me :)  Hope your day is going well too!

Free Hugs

I usually do not do cactus cards just because I have lived around cactus my whole life and I would rather fantasize about pine trees but I loved how these oval dies from The Stamp Doctor, which I recessed, made this cacti card look.  Just a simple card but I like how it turned out. If you end up hugging a cactus, watch out for the pokies!



Have a great Day ya'll!

Flip Flopping

I bet you thought I was talking about the type you wear on your feet but nope I am referring to The Stamp Doctor's Flip Flop Card Die #2.  I watched a video tutorial on you tube for this card and decided I had to try it. Very easy to follow tutorial and she offers great tips along the way. To accent the card I used the Simple Sentiments Stamps, the ZigZag Border Die and The Tags #1 Stitched Die.
The flowers are from Happy Day Stamps and leaves are from the very versatile No See All Seasons Tree Die Set from Whimsy Stamps. LOL I just noticed my musical notes are upside down.....Ishkabibble as I always tell my grand kids.  Thanks for stopping by!

I am on a Roll at the Farm

With the weather being beautiful, in the 70-80 degree range, I guess I have farm stuff on the brain! We have chickens and cows so these were right down my alley. I should have put a dog stealing an egg since one of our dogs (or both) seem to have found out where the hens are laying.  Their coats seem to be much healthier with all the protein they are consuming.  I have been having a blast playing with all the farm sets I have so I decided I would post all three cards in one post.  I used the  A2 Card in a box#2 from The Stamp Doctor for this happy birthday card box, the stamp set is From the Herd by La-La Land Crafts.  The second card is also using From the Herd by La-la Land Crafts.
On the third card I used Best of Cluck from Sugar Pea Designs.  This one reminded me of the dogs because of the little cracked egg. It "cracked" me up.  Hope you enjoyed these farm cards as much as I did making them! Sunshine to you all!

Unicorn

I have had this cute unicorn paper for quite a while now and wanted to make something with it but nothing sparked me until I saw this cute little unicorn from Paper Smooches.  The set is called Spectrum and the unicorn is adorable. Just wondering if there is such a thing as a gray dapple unicorn. I was able to top it off with La-La Land Crafts Flag Banner Die which I love.  Yes I know I love every die I have :). I love all the magical sparkle and hope you do too. Thanks for checking it out.

Cat's Life

I have been wanting to play with two different dies from The Stamp Doctor but just wasn't sure what I wanted to do.  I joined La-La Land Crafts Club and received and adorable set that happened to have cats in it and it hit me what I could make.  The first die is an A2 Card in a Box#2 and the second is Cat's life.  I pulled a little cat from the La-La Land Crafts set, went to coloring and even though I had a hundred interruptions from the grans kids I was able to finish.  Hope you like it, it was fun like a cat's meow!

Scootin Newton

What a fun little cat to color. He is from the collection at Newton's Nook Designs.  This little set is called Newton Scoots By, not only is the cat adorable but the sentiments are cute too.  I used the Scalloped Border Dies, which comes in a set of three, from The Stamp Doctor on the top of the card.
