Quick and Easy B-Day Card

Here's a cute card I threw together for a 3-year-old's birthday party this weekend. Nice color scheme for a little girl! I stamped the butterfly using the Flight of the Butterfly set on DSP. Couldn't find my paper piercer, so his trail is just made with the Chocolate Chip marker.

Celebrating BIG!

These are the invites I made for my daughter's 5th birthday party that is coming up next weekend. They use a big cupcake stamp from the current Stampin' Up catalog that is actually a giant thank you card. I modified it, added a greeting, and cut it out to make the invites. She LOVES them - especially since she is fond of cupcakes, frosting, anything pink, and cherries!

Late Easter Post

Well, this is a bit late, but too cute not to share. Here are the special Easter Egg boxes I made ala a project from Andrea Walford (blog link at left) for each of my girls. Filled both with multi-colored jelly beans. They were a huge hit!

Easter Fun!

Here's a sweet little Easter card I made for my family using the A Good Egg set. I cased the idea from this blog: http://stampsalot.blogspot.com/ but added my own twist on spring colors (even though some of my DSP is retired) . The basket is the Big Shot's baskets and blooms die - no, I don't have it, but I had a cut one I hadn't assembled from regionals, so I traced it to make more!

Can't Wait to be an Auntie!

I'm gearing up for my sis to have my first niece or nephew in just a few months. Here are two card designs for baby shower invites. I am still up in the air on which color combo I like better. What do you think? It's hard to tell in the photos but both are also dry embossed with polka dots.
