DS156 & TKJ177

Happy Thursday, peeps….we’re on the downhill slide of the week!  I wanted to play with the pretty colors at The Kraft Journal this week:

as well as Jen’s Deconstructed Sketch:

But I am so bummed because my white circle looks just like that…a white circle.  In reality, it has a white embossed floral image on it that is very pretty!  But it’s impossible to see here, so you’ll just have to imagine it!  I needed a baby shower card, so this is it!

It’s always fun to mix and match sets; this uses the little lines of hearts from Chalk Lines for the So Saffron panel; the sweetie pie in Strawberry Slush is from Num Num; the moon, stars and heart are from Pictogram Punches; and the sentiment is from Something to Say:

And here is a closer view of the embossed floral image from Hello Darling; you might be able to see it:

and finally, on the inside, a little pocket for a gift card:

Thanks for popping by today!

Last night we took a little ferris wheel ride at our local carnival…..it was a beautiful evening and Cassidy had so much fun!

The view was amazing!

Happy Friday, peeps!  The end of the work week and a holiday ahead for us Americans!  I am sharing a couple of 4 1/4” square cards today…these are a fun little change from the standard A2 size!  The first one uses a new In Color, Lost Lagoon, and I think it looks great with Soft Sky and Pistachio Pudding:

I stamped the flowers from Summer Silhouettes in Lost Lagoon; one was “full-strength” and the second was stamped again  without reinking.  I also stamped the gingham panel (from the Gingham wheel that I unmounted from the wheel and added to cling mount to make it into a stamp) in Soft Sky and added some Soft Sky seam binding.  The sentiment on the front is from Something to Say and on the inside, a fun little sentiment from Num Num:

My second card used a scrap of DP I had laying on my desk and the new Endless Birthday Wishes stamp along with the new File Tabs Edgelits. 

I wasn’t sure what I would use these File Tabs  for, but the “celebrate” sentiment fit on the tab perfectly:

I stamped the rest of the sentiment on a Chalk Talk diecut in Real Red and Pacific Point, and added some stars, glittered up as I did on the hearts from this post:

Since my diecut goes off the side of the card, I am entering this in the Addicted to CAS challenge 38, “Off the Edge”!

A little pudding enjoyment:

 

And our baby robins have hatched!  Not too attractive, but here they are:

Hopefully, they’ll be opening their eyes soon and mama will be busy feeding them!

Enjoy your day!

SUO97 and CCCB212

Happy Thursday, peeps!  A cute little project to show you today; this is for two challenges.  City Crafter Challenge has a “What’s Cookin” challenge with this inspiration photo:

Aren’t those photos fun?  And the challenge at SU Only this week is “Something Yummy”!  I had made a little goodie for a friend whose birthday is coming up, so I whipped up this tag and sewed it to one of our littleTag a Bag chevron-printed bags:

I used a sentiment from a new set, Num Num, and stamped it in Soft Sky (which is such a pretty color, but difficult to photograph), adding a little pink heart:

and I mounted it on a tag created from various Chalk Talk dies, using Cool Caribbean cardstock stamped with the Gingham wheel in white, some Blushing Bride DP, and finally, some Crushed Curry chevron ribbon!

The final touches were some “sugar-sprinkled” hearts, made by applying Versamark ink to Pink Pirouette cardstock, adding Heat & Stick powder, heating it, then adding Dazzling Diamonds glitter, heating again, and punching out some hearts and attaching them to the tag:

Yummy!!

A three-year-old with a cookie, an attitude and…..

a giggle….and a reprimand to keep one’s feet off the table!

Enjoy your day!
