I have two cards to share today using stamps from The Craft's Meow and my set of Perfect Layers rulers.

This is the first card featuring Fall Fibi & Lilly.  I thought this was such a sweet image from the set and so perfect for Thanksgiving that is just around the corner.  I know I am getting all ready for Thanksgiving and prepping to cook lots of food.  I used the 1/16th inch ruler for these layers.  I know I seem to favor that thin layer a lot.  The sentiment is included in the set.  The paper and pearls are from Doodlebug, the swirls from MFT and the corners from La-La Land Crafts.

Here is a close up of Fibi & Lilly.  They are colored with Copics.

My second card features this cute little turtle from Turtle Love.  She is such a sweet looking turtle!  I used my 1/16th inch ruler again for the layer here.  I turned this into an interactive card.  It's not a spinner card because I didn't use a heavy penny for it to spin on its own.  I used some button dies and a little bit of twine and you can move the heart around the turtle.

Here's another photo with the heart in a different position.

A close up photo of the turtle.  Her pink hearts have some glossy accents on them.

This is the inside of the card and the sentiment is what inspired me to turn this into an interactive card and have the heart move around the turtle.  The thin border is 1/16th inch and the sentiment is matted with the 1/8th inch ruler.

Next on the hop is Lin.

Thanks so much for stopping by and enjoy the hop!

Love the kittens sitting on the pumpkin. the turtle card is great. Love using the "spinner" to go along with the sentiment inside the card. Have to remember that idea.

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 through the hat and then use it as

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 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. If you've read the story
