Sister Stamps July Release -- Doogie

Hello again!  I can't believe it's the last day of June!  The summer needs to slow down.  But at least this new Sister Stamps release will be available July 1st.  I have one last card to share and it's a birthday card because Sister Stamps is celebrating 2 years!  Happy Birthday to Sister Stamps!

My birthday card features Doogie.  He's adorable!  I love that he has an action pose going on.  The balloons and cupcake are from other Sister Stamps too.  Do you know which two?  The balloons are from Takeo, and I cut them out and tied them onto Doogie's tail.  Though I'm thinking maybe I should've made the balloon strings longer?  Anyway, Doogie's gotta take his own balloons to the party.  The cupcake is from one of my favorite Sister Stamps, Miyoko.  The banner and sentiment are from Lawn Fawn.

Close up photo of Doogie going for that cupcake.

The other day, I took my youngest to J's Knicknacks because they were having another awesome sale.  Mostly I bought Copic Xpress It Blending Cardstock but I let my son pick out his very own Stickles.  He loves glitter glue but Crayola kind doesn't last too long and so he gets disappointed.  He got to pick two colors and a package of rhinestones too.  He loves rhinestones!  I need to teach him to use them in moderation (hoard) and not all on one card!

I know, before you know it, it's back to school! Another cute card! Ha! Love your little scene! Cute idea with the balloons! Yeah, good idea to stick to glitter glue, I thought the kids kind glitter would be cheaper, but way too messy...especially when some little rugrat starts to use it when I'm not watching!

Snowman gift card holder

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 through the hat and then use it as

coffee cup shaped cards

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 of the dies from MFT's gift card dies.

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.
