A little sunshine...

on another snowy day! I saw this card on Mary Fish's blog...she made it in Rich Razzleberry and what a stunner! Mine is done in Orchid Oppulence, but doesn't quite make the same splash...I'll have to try it in a brighter color (I used up all my Razzleberry!)

Build-a-Bear Birthday Party

I decided to have my daughter's 9th birthday party in our home and we are going to have a Build-a-Bear party! The girls are going to make the little pen-holding coloring book, their own goody bag, a covered journal, decorated with a BAB diecut and a 6 x 6 scrapbook page that my daughter will keep as a memory of her special day....here are some photos of the coloring book and the goody bag...I will post a photo of the invitation and the journal as soon as I get my order from SU! for some Designer Series paper....

Punch Bunny!

I saw this adorable bunny made from scallop punches and I couldn't resist! I scoured through my kids' arts-n-crafts bins for the pom pom for the tail. Now I have to go out and get more 'cottontails'!

Another FUN Playdate!

Yesterday a few demos got together and we made some great cards....Evelyn Rivera designed the pink fold out card with the magic window...Joan Buckley did an amazing brayer technique on the Asian inspired card...Debbie Nunez made the adorable Ladybug card...Madeline Soler showed us the cutest chick card from the scallop circle Sizzix diecut...and I made a different version of my heart Bride and Groom card....

Cute houses!

Here's a couple of samples from the FREE Sale-a-bration set 'Good Neighbors'....I love the color combo of Real Red and Tempting Turquoise--this would have made a cute Valentine's Day card, too! The Summer Sun card is just a variation of the same card I did with Kraft, Chocolate Chip and Tempting Turquoise....

Is that a vase or.....

the ornament punch??!!! Just trim off a sliver on the bottom and you've got very sophisticated vase! And it pairs so nicely with the set, Pocket Silhouettes.....

Happy Valentine's Day!

Here's my hubby's Valentine's Day card--I thought it was different than the typical red/white card...plus with only one layer, it was super quick! My kid's and I made the Build-a-Bear 'Valentines' using the bear die and the full heart punch...we dressed the bears in cute little Valentine shirts and jeans and gave them hearts to hold where the kids signed their names....
