Skater Ian birthday card

I'm pretty excited about this card. First of all I made the background myself!! I chalked the sky and used markers for the ground. Brads were used for the wheels. The second reason is I think I managed to keep it plain and boyish. This card is for my son's friend and if it hints at girlish he won't like it. So I tried really hard not to embellish it.

Supplies-Spellbinders labels two, Skater Ian-The Greeting Farm, Pebbles Inc chalk, Pantone markers, Cuttlebug swiss dots folder.

New little puppy gift box

Whenever someone gets a pet it's like bring home a new baby. So that's why I made this little dog house gift box to congratulate someone on their new little one.The dog house was made from a bird house template and I added the roof.

I found the template a long time ago and for the life of me I can not find the person who created it. Here is a link to the template.

Supplies:Pupstar stamps-The Greeting Farm, Pattern paper-CTMH, Pantone markers, Door and flower-Clear and Frosted sheets from ShortCuts. Dyno label maker

Seize the Cupcake_ShortCuts 3D Friday

Wow! Today is my last 3D Friday post for ShortCuts. Another month is over already. Today’s post is a Gift Card Holder. Instead of a gift card I filled it with little pull-tabs with funny saying to cheer a friend. These gift cardholders are so fun to use, and for the next couple of months I’ll be showing you what other ways you can use them to! They even come in 4 different colours, White, Vanilla, Kraft and Black.

Here’s a file of the sayings I used (got them from a daily desk calendar). Just print, cut out and add your favourite stamp image.
The tabs read:
Your family thinks you’re a good egg even if you’re a little cracked.
You can’t have to may friends or pairs of shoes.
When the going gets tough, the tough eat cake
Never eat more than you can lift

Get Well Soup card

Yesterday I was all inspired by an idea! To make a "get well" card that holds a package of chicken noodle soup. And I even made a mini tutorial for it. Hope you like it.
This first card was made using Bombshell Stamps "It's a Pirates Life". I used the priate girl, left her outfit white and made a little nurse hat for her. I also made her stocking white fish net but it didn't photograph well.

Supplies-It's a Pirate's Life-Bombshell Stamps, Pattern Paper-Cosmo Cricket, cardstock-CTMH

A ShortCuts Quickie

Goooood Morning! Wow I can't believe it's Monday already and the last week of Feb. I don't know about you but this month flew by for me.

This morning I put this card together, it was pretty quick. Again I used the clear card from ShortCuts cause I love how you can make two cards in one. Flat the card is pretty cute, open it and you get a different look with the flower suspended in air all by itself and simply sending sunshine your way, so it's like making two cards! Pretty neat stuff! LOL Hope you like it.

Friends with Chocolate_ShortCuts 3D Friday

Well it’s Friday already and it’s time to post a new 3D project for ShortCuts. This one is my favourite. The window in this project is made with ShortCuts Frosted sheet. It’s perfect for this kind of application because it’s sturdy and semi-transparent. It gives you a little peek and still keeps the secret! Do you remember the Life Saver candy boxes that appear around Christmas? My husband remembers getting a box of these every Christmas from his grandmother. Well I just love the box and decided to make one that would hold any kind of candy I wanted to fill it with. I put my favourite candy inside orange flavoured vanilla kisses.

incase you want to make a box for your friend I’ve made a template for you. Enjoy
