Happy Halloween

October 31, 2019

Hi there & Happy Halloween! Thought I’d have some fun and make some costumes for these cute Picture Book animals. This is how our family rolls for Halloween. You go downstairs and rummage up a costume for trick or treating.

I used the Dress up Cat & Dog set to add sunglasses, ties & bunny ears to the Picture Book Monkey, Elephant & Labrador. For the sentiment I used the CZ My Zombie Boo stamp set.

I wouldn’t necessarily say that Halloween is my “jam”, but I do like candy. I do not like to be scared, though, so bunny ears and heart sunglasses are right up my alley. Hope you have yourselves some sweet treats tonight:) Thanks so much for stopping by!

School Bus Messages

July 25, 2018

Hi there! Have you seen the AWESOME new Friendly Frolic release by Simon Says Stamp? It’s so fun and I couldn’t wait to make a school bus shape card using the School Bus Messages set.SSS-School Bus MessagesTo begin I stamped the school bus image from School Bus Messages with Gina K’s Amalgam ink, which is amazing! Then I colored the bus with copics. I die cut the bus using the coordinating School Bus Messages die. I die cut another bus outline to adhere to the back to create the shape card.
SSS-School Bus MessagesI added a couple of cutie patootie critters to the bus using the Picture Book Monkey & Chihuahua dies. I gave the monkey a bow tie using the Cuddly Critters Accessories die set. I also added glossy accents to the bus lights.

Hello there or should I say ‘Sup you cheeky monkey😀I have a fun, little project to share with you featuring a few of my faves right now.
SSS-HeyI think you already know how I feel about the Picture Book Monkey and when I saw the “cheeky monkey” sentiment in the Hello You set I knew I it was destiny!
SSS-HeyFor the background I trimmed strips of cardstock to 1/4″ thick and adhered them together onto a small panel. I used one of the Hey dies for the ‘Sup, which worked perfectly with the embossed sentiment in Hello You.SSS-HeyRainbows and cheeky monkeys…you just can’t top that! Thanks so much for stopping by!
