cat calendars

Hi!  I'm back today to share some cute calendars that I made for 2018.  They are mostly cute because of the adorable stamps by Mama Elephant!  I used the Cat Agenda stamps and dies for these.  I used their tip of printing out the images and numbering the dies with a Sharpie.  It really makes it easier to sort through the dies to find the right one especially since they are so small.

Here is a group shot of the calendars.  I only made one of each type.  I tried to find some cute pairs of cats that would go together nicely.  I had actually stamped and colored a lot of these cats in the summer and I wasn't quite sure what I was going to do with them.  I knew I wanted them on a calendar but not sure about the layout. 

They all measure 4x4 inches and are adhered onto chipboard.  The calendars I used are really tiny but fit well with this.  The cat paper is from Doodlebug and I had bought it because it was so cute!  Good thing because it fits this theme so well.

The backside has a thin magnetic sheet so these calendars can be used on the fridge.





Close up shots of the little pairs of kitties.  Love the kitty images in this set.  I also have the Dog Agenda so I'm hoping I can make some dog calendars too since 2018 is the Year of the Dog.

Well, that is it for now.  I have a couple other calendars that I'll share at a later time.  Thanks so much for stopping by!

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
