3x3 Birthday

Here is another one we made at our recent card class. This is just a quick and cute gift enclosure card. I love the bright colours you can find in the Sycamore Street DSP that is available FREE during sale-a-bration!

Boy am I going to be sad when sale-a-bration is over and this paper is no longer available!

Sent With Love

We had a wonderful card class tonight! Thanks to everyone who came out! And those of you who couldn't make it, we missed you and hope you can make it next time. This is one of the cards we made at our "Birthday Emergency" Class this evening. Some of the ladies worried it would be too complicated but they made it through and their cards looked great!


 
Stampin' Supplies
Stamps: Sent with Love, Pretty Pairs
Ink: Island Indigo, Calypso Coral
Paper: Sent with Love DSP, Whisper White, Pool Party, Real Red
Accessories: Postage Stamp Punch, Corner Rounder Punch, Circle Punch, Small Heart Punch, Real Red Grosgrain Ribbon



 
I am totally loving the new Sent with Love Bundle! It's so cute and the colours look great together! The paper will be great for not only cards but scrapbooks about your travels. Contact me today to find out how to order yours.
 
Off to watch the Duck Dynasty Premiere (yup I just admitted that).

Birthday Emergency Class

Hi All! I hope you all had a wonderful day! I had fun with a trip to Costco and Homesense with my mom and my favourite little guy! It was only my second time being in Costco but I am getting less overwhelmed I think (key is not to go on the weekend, duh)!

Homesense as always is a dangerous place! I found a few cute things though (who am I kidding I always find cute things). And for some reason or another I am now on a new kick to paint my Kitchen cabinets. They are plain white and were painted before we moved in and they are starting to chip, etc. Friends of ours are redoing their main level and it's made me get in the spirit. I am thinking painted cupboards and a backsplash, as well as a healthy does of chalkboard paint on our basement door. We'll see haha.

Anyways onto more paper crafting things! Here is a photo of the cards we will be making at my upcoming "Birthday Emergency Class". I use different sets from the Spring Catalogue and Sale-a-Bration as well as the new "Sent with Love" set!

 
I will post more about these cards after class. If you are local and interested in taking the class I still have 4 spots left! Let me know by Tuesday. The cost is $15, check out my events page for more information!

Happy 30th Kelly

This weekend was filled with Birthdays! Not only did Madeline turn 4, but our neighbour and friend, Kelly, turned 30! Her husband was very busy and planned her a surprise party. It was lots of fun and I think she had a great time!

This is the card I made for her:

 
 
 
Stampin' Supplies
Stamps: Memorable Moments, Oh, Hello
Ink: So Saffron, Basic Grey
Paper: Basic Grey, Whisper White, Bashful Blue, Tea for Two DSP
Accessories: Honeycomb Embossing Folder, Oval Framelits, Petite Butterfly Punch, Doily, Basic Rhinestone

Of course leaving the house at the last minute I forgot it (sorry about that Kelly) but thankfully she lives next door so I can drop it off! Gabe and I are heading out now to do just that! Happy Wednesday everyone!

Happy 4th Birthday Madeline

My favourite niece turned 4 on Sunday! I can't believe it! I still remember the day she was born. Of course we celebrated with a princess party (what other way is there to celebrate really). We had chocolate cake and lots of presents. It was so much fun!

I made her this card, it wasn't my best work, but I think she liked it. Although being 4 she of course was much more interested in what was in the boxes than what the cards looked like, but I still think she liked the card!

Stampin' Supplies
Stamps: Memorable Moments, Happiest Birthday Wishes (retired)
Ink: Tangerine Tango
Paper: Whisper White, Tangerine Tango, Daffodil Delight, Old Olive, Real Red, Basic Black, Pacific Point, Retired DSP
Accessories: Pennant Punch, Tangerine Tango Ribbon (SAB), Modern Label Punch, Scallop Circle Punch

Gabe and I are busy watching Ellen, this is his reaction to the dancing! Haha, just loving life over here.
 
I am hoping the roads get a bit nicer because I am supposed to be off to a card class at my Upline, Carolyn's, house! It looks like we will be making beautiful cards too so I don't want to miss a thing. Carolyn has just started blogging about her Stampin' Up! adventures. She does beautiful work and is a huge support system to me. Check out her blog, The Virtual Verandah to see some of her work! Leave a comment so she knows you stopped by.

One Last Valentine Post

Okay, so I know Valentine's Day is over but I have one last card to share with you (well let's be honest, I am sure there will be lots more because I am so in love with the hearts a flutter bundle and More Amore Specialty DSP, but this is it for now)!

Gabriel and I helped my mom yesterday at her flower shop and it went fairly well I must say. No melt downs and he was flirting with all the ladies! Hubby spoiled me and got me a mani/pedi! So excited to use it! I have only ever had one pedicure in my life (I was 8.5 months pregnant and could no longer reach my toes) and I've never had a manicure, so bring it on! I hope your sweetheart got you something special!

This is another masculine card and since Valentine's Day is over for this year, you could even use it for an Anniversary!

 
Stampin' Supplies
Stamps: Hearts a Flutter, Itty Bitty Banners
Ink: Real Red, Basic Black
Paper: More Amore Specialty DSP, Real Red, Basic Black, Whisper White, Silver Glimmer Paper
Accessories: Hearts a Flutter Framelits, Itty Bitty Banners Framelits, Postage Stamp Punch, Smooch Spritz


I'm a sucker for some sparkle!
