Excuse Me?

By
Hi!  This is the current sketch at Club Anya and Friends.  Thought I'd make a quick card and play along since I just got my very own Creeper Crew set thanks to Cheryl!!  An early birthday gift!  Thank you!

I didn't know which Creeper to use so I asked my daughter and she picked Jill because even though she looked the "scariest" she had the the cutest dress.  Haha, she's such a girl to decide based on fashion.  Well, Jill reminds me of a disgruntled bridesmaid with her frilly dress and hair-bow thinking what? I gotta wear this?!  Hence her "Excuse me?" sentiment.

This little heart is from a set of heart doilies from Cheery Lynn Designs.  The dies are so cute!  And I was so lucky to find them at Cute Stuff!  Anyway, I cut this one with fun foam.  If you're a PTI follower then you know that's the current challenge over there.  I was playing around with this and fun foam is really easy to cut.  I thought it matched nicely with this card and just stuck in some flowers.

There are like a million little hearts that pop out so I glued 3 on the side.  Oh, the pretty crocheted lace is from American Crafts.  I still haven't gotten around to trying to crochet a doily.  Seems a bit time consuming.

Thanks for reading and have a great Friday!

Sooo cute! Yes, those creepers are cute! They have really grown on me. I think I like all their clothes too. That heart doily is so cute! Fun foam looks nice! I gotta dig mine out, I bought a pack of sheets a while back thinking I was going to make kids' crafts like photo frame ornaments mostly...but that never happened!

Ooh, love this, Eva! Lucky you - you got the whole creeper set! I haven't played with foam - I didn't think I'd like it - but your heart is sooo cute and clever w/ the flowers pulled through. Great take on the sketch, design and your coloring of the disgruntled bridesmaid, lol!

Snowman gift card holder

By
Hi!  I was planning to post this last night but I was just too tired to write or think of complete sentences.  It's been a busy week with the boys on Fall break and still trying to finish up a bunch of crafts.  I have been trying to make some crocheted crafts to put in my Etsy shop and finally I'm done with one.  It's a crocheted snowman that can hold a gift card or anything actually that is small enough to fit in the pouch.  The pattern is designed by ChiWei Ranck of One Dog Woof and can be found HERE . Here's the little snowman with his arms folded over in the front to look like he is hugging the card.  I added this fun card that I stamped.  You can definitely add in a gift card too behind this card. The gift card reaches under his nose. This is how the little opening of the pouch looks.  I hope I can make more of these little guys.  These would be so cute for teachers and I think it would be easy to put a little wire throug...

coffee cup shaped cards

By
Hi!  I think after this post I may need a little nap!  My right shoulder is actually feeling worn out from all the typing and photo editing I've been doing lately.  And this cooler weather is making me drowsy.  It's getting cold here already! I made a bunch of these coffee shaped cards using a die from Honey Bee Stamps .  It's a cute coffee set but the die is extra long so it would probably help to have a longer platform to diecut.  I just have the standard sized one so I would pass it through once in my Big Shot and then rotate the cardstock and die carefully to cut the other end.  Manageable but the longer platform would be more convenient! I embossed the front of the card with some pretty snowflakes.  I think this is a Sizzix embossing folder.  And then stamped the coffee sleeve with some Lawn Fawn stamps. This is the inside.  The gift card slot does not come with this coffee cup die set.  I cut that opening with one ...

Knuffle Bunny

Hi!  The Greeting Farm had their Customer Challenge & Chit Chat Night "A Night at the Bookstore" and introduced a few challenges.  I have to say chatting was too fast for me and I couldn't really keep up.  It was still early here, and I had to pick up the kids from school and activities and make dinner and eat and so I guess the timing didn't really work out with our schedule. You can check out the challenge details on the SCS forum HERE .  I made this card for Favorite Child's Book category.  It is based on the Mo Willems book Knuffle Bunny .  It's one of my kids' favorites and it's such a cute story.  We actually love reading Mo Willems' books especially his Elephant and Piggie series.  Those books are hilarious!  This challenge also made me realize that I haven't read many books recently except kids' books.  I used to love reading but just haven't given it much time lately.  Anyway, here is my card. If you've read the story...
