This was another card I used for my May customer thank you cards. This is one of the smaller birds in the set. I used the glasses on this little guy too. I thought the glasses paired well with the stack of books. And I couldn't resist giving him a balloon. I have another project using this same stamp set that I'll share on Friday. I'm pretty excited about this project. I'm working on finishing it up now and I can't wait to share it with … [Read more...] about Another Bird’s Eye View

Smiling Croc
As we're approaching the end of the school year, I can't wait until we are sailing into the Summer break. I think this Croc is looking forward to it as well. Just look at that happy smile on his face and he pedals away. It's kind of funny, but with a kid in College, school is very hands-off at this point. But, I still look forward to the school breaks and visits home. There's nothing better than hugging them after it's been a few weeks since … [Read more...] about Smiling Croc
Party Animal
Happy Monday! I'm back with the Zoo Crew Suite today with another party animal - the raccoon. I love that one of the dies in the set can cut out this raccoon in the pattern paper. I don't mind cutting out one or two animals, but with the die I can cut a lot of them easily. I was debating coloring in the raccoon, but I really like how these animals look with the minimal coloring. I've really enjoyed using the pattern paper. Next I'm going … [Read more...] about Party Animal

Somebunny To Love
Easter is right around the corner and I thought it would be nice to have some new Easter decor this year. I found these frames online and they are relatively inexpensive. Perfect for a small piece like this that will only be on display for a month or so. To make the layered frame, I used some glue dots to hold the pink and white frames together. Then on the back side, I used our foam strips to tape the two pieces together. You could also use … [Read more...] about Somebunny To Love
Stop And Smell The Flowers
It's officially Spring, even though we are still having lots of cold rain here in Southern California. I'm manifesting warm sunny weather by bringing out all the flowers and sunshine today. The Rain or Shine Suite is just adorable. I know I already said that, but just look at this cute little turtle out for a stroll in the garden. So cute! The dies in this set include lots of fun extras, like the bridge and the grass in this card. The … [Read more...] about Stop And Smell The Flowers
Rain or Shine Suite
This Suite has been very popular since the January-April Catalog was released and this is the first chance I've had to get it out and play with it. The critters in the set are just the cutest. My favorite is the bunny dancing in the rain. The pattern paper is amazing in this set. It's hard to see here, but the raindrops are all embossed and shiny. It almost makes them look wet on the card. The Rain or Shine Suite was out of stock for … [Read more...] about Rain or Shine Suite
