Cup of cheer


When I saw this stamp set in the new holiday catalogue, I just loved it, from that cute cup to the santas on his way sentiment (that I can use for elf on the shelf this year too he he he)
 I filled the cup with dazzling diamonds glitter, so sparkly.

A vintage type Birthday Card



 My family is a big fan of quirky T-Shirts.  I especially find the ones that say limited edition with the birth year kinda cool

So what do you do for a masculine birthday - who does not like old fashioned style boats and cars on his card?
Yep made a limited edition card!


Check out all the layers on this card


So that was something a little different for you today.
Enjoy your Monday peeps

Happy Birthday with Ice cream

Happy Sunday everyone, I hope everyone is enjoying their long weekend (if you are in OZ)
I am happy to spend the next two days with my little family, am looking forward to it with no commitments.  Its a rarity around here!

So madly trying to use some of Stampin' Up!s retired product, well the ribbon and twine anyway :)


I still love that sprinkles of life set for the Ronald McDonald charity with Stampin' up!
If you don't own it go on over and check it out, such a perfect stamp set.


I used the inspiration fro a photo over at Just Add Ink this week, I really liked the stripes in their picture but didn't have any grey so used the stripes from the DSP stack called go wild.

Happy is from the stamp set celebrate today also Stampin' Up!

Birthday is a die cut from the die I think I got it from Technique Tuesday, but its the most perfect size.

Happy World Cardmaking day!

Happy Cardmaking day to everyone the world over.

Wow, did everyone find time today to get at least one card in?

I managed a super quick one tonight and I mean super quick.

This one was made with my wonderful husband in mind, I like to send them to his workplace now and again :)

Edges of the white embossed layer, the circle diecut and the striped acorn have been sponged with  tip top taupe.


It may be hard to see, but I used circle framelits for the the circle cut out, once the larger size was cut out, I got the next sized circle down and laid it on top of the circle cutting side of framelit up (away from cardstock)  then ran it through big shot to give it an embossed inner circle image.  

I used the new stamp set from Stampin' Up! called Acorny thank you.
It also has a coordinating punch which really makes this set super awesome as there is no fussy cutting, perfect for a quickie card.

Snow Way its Christmas already?

Ha ha ha such a cool sentiment isn't it?

Its from the Snow place stamp set from Stampin' Up!


A little bit of masking here to achieve this.

I CASED this card from HERE, its amazing how many talented people are out there and I love to take inspiration from them, even those that aren't Stampin' Up! This card was perfect so all I changed out were the stamps, the sentiment and the colour, oh and added some rhinestones here and there.

A WICKED birthday...

I am definitely a fan of Halloween, which is the minority in Australia I know, but I cant help but love getting together with friends, dressing up and enjoying a night of fun!  
When I saw the new Howl - o - ween stamp set and matching dies in the catalogue I had to have it
But NOT for halloween
I saw the skull and bones for all things boys
I saw the hat - for all things Harry Potter/wizard etc
I saw a funky owl - you can never have too many owls
I saw the word BOO - for project life especially the early pages I still need to do of Harry.
I see the wand - for all things girly and wizardry.
The spider?  So many things most notably - anything spiderman.

So many uses for one set, and to be able to get matching dies so I didn't have to cut them all out was just icing on the cake lol.


New DSP also from the new holiday catalogue.

Check out that gorgeous black glimmer paper - OMG it is amazing and most perfect on a boys card like this one.
