I was on a roll....

Last night I had a mission to get some cards made and try and get a bit of productivity happening in my house and I was stoked that I actually achieved what I set out to do, don't worry about my goal I set for myself a while ago to get to bed by 10:30pm because that didn't happen but that's what holidays are for, I love sleeping in. So I have a couple of thank you cards made to hand out to my hubby's family, a cute babushka birthday I made for a good friend's daughter who will be celebrating her birthday soon, I really had fun making this card with glitter and getting a bit of colouring in done.(lol) And lastly I really love getting mail that is just for me, not the bill kind but the kind that makes me smile so I thought it would really make the birthday girl's day if she got an RSVP in the mail just for her from Miss 5. Lately I've kind of been lacking in inspiration when it comes to card making so I went over to this site to get a bit of help and away I went. Next on my card making list is Miss 5, I love making her card, very girly and probably PINK. I hope you are having a good week, I'm enjoying having my hubby home with us and just hanging out together it's so nice.

Talk to you soon.

Birthdays are fun!


Hello there everyone! I have finally got a birthday photo to share with you and also some thank you cards I made last night to hand out to the people who came to the party. It isn't something that I normally do but I just thought it might be a nice thing to do.
Here's how I made the card:
1. Cut vanilla and white cardstock to size. (I just cut an A4 sheet length ways in half)
2. Stamp butterflies randomly on cardstock.
3. Cut out pink cardstock with spellbinders in two sizes.
4. Emboss smaller circle with the Thank you folder.
5. Put a couple of pieces of sticky strip on either side of cardstock at the top and wrap ribbon around and tie in a knot.
6. Put kindy glitz around larger circle in small dots.
7. Place smaller circle on dimensionals and attach to larger circle. Do the same with the larger circle and then put onto the card.
8. Layer some flowers with sticky dots, put a dew drop in the centre and attach.
9. Add a couple of dew drops down the lower right hand side of the card and there you have it, one thank you card.
I hope that was helpful, I am going to a stamping class now so I'll talk to you all again soon.
