Hot Diggity Dog!

Hello all:)

It is a stunning Tuesday here ... the sun is out and it's supposed to get to 22 degrees today (hence the play on words for the post title LOL).

Today I'm sharing one of the projects for my upcoming "Kiddiwinks" class. Three projects you can use just for kids.
This card is inspired by fellow SU! demo Lisa Young (Thanks Lisa for the inspiration!) and is probably my favourite of the three projects. Every time I see this card I smile.
Here's what happens when you pull the tab (or tongue!) ...

I just love it!!!  Apart from the fact that the dog looks a little like my own furry friend, this guy is adorable and sure to please any child that receives it.

Thanks for stopping by and taking a peek and wherever you are I trust the sun is shining for you too :)

Oh, Whale!

Happy day to you :)

Isn't this guy the cutest?!
He graces the front of the card for my last project in the upcoming 'Get Well Soon' class. He's the whale from the SU! stamp set 'Oh, Whale!'... he was just too cute to resist LOL.

Here's a look at the complete card ...

 Simple but oh soooooo sweet.

Tomorrow SU! releases their Retiring List so make sure you check back then to see what we'll be saying goodbye to!

Tissues Anyone?

 

Happy Friday all :)

Today I'm sharing the second project for my 'Get Well Soon' class.

It's a box ...
I know, it's a pretty cute box but I can hear you asking what it has to do with a get well class LOL.

The secret is on the inside where all is revealed ...

 

Ta daa!

The box is a holder for a packet of tissues / Kleenex.  Isn't it the cutest :D

I couldn't resist the sweet whale and sentiments in SU!'s 'Get Whale Soon' stamp set.

Thanks for stopping by and taking a peek, and remember if you'd like to make one of these for yourself, sign up for my class!

Feeling S{ ick }?

 

Happy Thursday :)

I have a sick DD at home today which reminded me to post something from my next class. It's a 'Get Well Soon' class, hence the reminder ;)

I used the super cute Owl punch to make a nurse for this card. I hand cut a branch for her to sit on. It's a little tricky to see in the photo but the branch is stamped with the 'Woodgrain' pattern. I used dots on the card base and "nurses uniform" because they reminded me of spots like the Measles.

Now, if the front of the card isn't cute enough for you, here's what's inside when you open it up ...

 

How cute is that?! I know ... super - uber cute!
Wouldn't this card make anyone feel better? :)

Wooden It Be Great ...

Hello all :)
Todays post is just a quick one  but I really wanted to share something for all those SU! wooden stamp lovers like me ...

New cases coming May 31st 2013!!!
I love how they stack and how versatile they are. Gotta love that :D

Thanks for stopping by and have a great day!

It's All About The Packaging

Happy Wednesday :)

For me gift wrapping is just as important as the gift itself and the packaging for my upcoming Mothers Day Class is no exception.
I've made a pretty vintage inspired purse to hold the mini card and Post-It note holder. Each can be used on their own but what a beautiful set to give your mother if I do say so myself (I especially love the wee charm dangling from the bow on the purse ... too cute!).

Thanks for stopping by and taking a peek :)

Just My Type

Happy Monday all :)

Today I'm sharing the second project for my Mothers Day class.
This is the Post-It note holder and pen set that coordinates with the card and the bag.
I've gone for a vintage feel again. The stamped images are from my current "go to" sets - 'Established Elegance' and 'Oh Hello'. The sentiment is from a retired set I have.

Thanks for stopping by and taking a peek :)

Colour Refresh!

Hello all :)

Stampin' Up! has just released details of their updated and refreshed colour families that will be taking place with the release of the new annual catty!
There's still four colour families (with ten colours in each one) but the colour palettes have had a little makeover.

I'm sad to see some of my favourite colours go (I am going to be lost without Baja Breeze and Riding Hood Red) but so excited that some of the soon-to-be retiring 2011-2013 In Colours are staying, and 'Blushing Bride' is a welcome return as it's such a beautiful pink!

Thanks for stopping by and have a colourful day :D

Mothers Day ... Most Elegant And Chic

Hello all :)


It's a cloudy slightly chilly day here so I had fun trying to get the lighting right to photograph my projects!

Today I'm sharing one of the projects for my upcoming Mothers Day class.
It's a 3 1/2 x 3 1/2" card that coordinates with a matching purse and notepad.
To have a sneak peek at the other projects visit my Facebook page. I will be posting more photos over the next few days so if you don't have a Facebook account, don't worry!

I've gone for a vintage feel (my favourite) with a touch of elegance for this class.
I asked myself what I would like to get if I was given an Inky Moose gift LOL.
The stamp set I used for the sentiment ('Amazing Family') also has 'Friend' and 'Sister' so you can change the projects to suit your needs.

Thanks for stopping by and taking a peek :)
