Silly Goose Birthday

I created this card for my grandnephew's 1st Silly Goose birthday. I love this stamp and have used it a few times. I matched it with Freshly Made Sketches #368 and used the colors in the DSP to determine the color palette for this fun boy's card.

This was a fun and easy card that relies mostly on the design. Thanks Freshly Made Sketches. 😀

Thanks for poppin' in! Have a wonderful day.

Cheerful Gingy Birthday

Good evening! I'm so glad you've visited. My younger sister and I have a common love of gingerbread girls and boys. I have often commented to her how I wish you'd see them year-round representing more holidays and seasons. With that though in mind immediately after the Christmas season, I decided to make my sister a non-Christmas gingerbread card. I started with the Freshly Made Sketches design #FMS364 and went from there. I chose the colors based on the SU! DSP Cherry On Top, concentrating on the red color since red is my sister's favorite color. In addition to what you can see in the photo, the gingy girl's body swings from side to side, as if dancing, AND there's a confetti flinger inside! I had so much fun making this cheerful birthday card. I hope you enjoyed it too. Card Recipe Stamps: SU! Itty Bitty Greetings, Lawn Fawn Simply Celebrate Winter Critters Punches & Dies: ...

Magical Unicorn See-Thru Shaker

Here's another cute card for one of my "littles" ... My grandniece turned 2 this year. I wanted to make her a card with a simple interactive element and shaker cards are the best for that, in my humble opinion ... nothing to move that could tear up the card. 😂 I also wanted to stretch my crafting skills a bit and step it up from normal shaker cards so I decided on making a see-thru shaker. With that decided, I went to my handy dandy stash of saved and unused Freshly Made Sketches designs and picked #FMS358 . Next, I looked through the splitcoaststampers.com past color challenges for a "girly" color combo and chose #CC1004 . Lastly, I looked through my Big Book of Stamps and found the rarely used SSS Magical Birthday set ... I actually think I used this stamp set to dress up the brown wrapping paper on her present last year, hmmm, theme? BTW , my handmade card related hobbies are BUYING stamps and dies, ORGANIZING stamps and dies and USING stamps and dies....

Pop-up Mice Birthday

Welcome back! My granddaughter's 7th birthday is coming up so it's time to try another interactive card. I decided to use my Lawn Fawn pop-up platform dies for the first time and some of their mouse stamps. Last year I made her a card with mice so this continues that theme a little and the mice are so very super cute. I love how so many of the Lawn Fawn mouse sets are the same size and you can mix-n-match them! CASE'd Birthday Mouse Party for the general scene idea. For the mouse flying over on a paper airplane, I attached it to a tiny strip of acetate. The platform itself was pretty easy to assemble but I could have done better getting the most use out of the cardstock. I think I got a bit over zealous with the mice and extras and made the card too busy but it's still cute! Thanks for poppin' by.
