Sweetie

I loved this baby outfit on both Audrey and Caitlyn. I didn't have the hair kerchief until Audrey, but the capris and little 'Sweetie' strawberry ruffle tank top I had gotten when Caitie was about this age.

Using a sheet of Bo Bunny and a sheet of Minds Eye that I got yesterday. The yellow paper is from the Lets Get Together paper pack. CTMH Chipboard, Minds Eye ribbon, craft rhinestones, and Sweet Thang stamps from CHF embellish the layout. I used another Page Maps sketch for this one too, from Oct '07.

Birthday Cards for Boys

Today we had a birthday party to go to and I hadn't made a card yet. It's for one of our friend's sons, and he is turning 10. Well, I made the first card, was quite happy with it then asked Paul if it seemed to kiddie for the birthday boy. He said, "Ummm..." So I started to make another one. He did say it was cute, but I think we both kind of thought it was a little too kiddie for a 10 year old. Maybe not, but I made another one anyway. The turtle one can go to one of his little brothers ^_~




This was the first one I made using the Tyson Turtle from CHF. The Owl stamps I have are also from Cornish Heritage Farms as well. In fact the party hat is from the Owl set. Uses the Good Times paper set and From Me to You stamp set for the sentiment.




And this was the one we ended up giving to the birthday boy. It's a bit simpler, but I think it worked better for him. Plus I was working like super speed to make this one since we were supposed to be leaving, lol.

You are a Hoot

I'm supposed be trying to make one more Mother's Day card, but played with my U R A Hoot stamp set instead. It's already gotten a lot of use by my girls. They were so big into coloring these owls and the turtle yesterday. I think I must of stamped this poor little owl about a dozen times for them and then the 'baby' owl even more, lol. Uses a scrap of boomdiada paper. Leaves were from the Friendship Blessings stamp set. Anyway, it's been a busy day! It's a bit early for me to post since I'll be up a bit longer creating but I don't think I'll finish what I start after this tonight, so I decided to at least post this one now ^_~ Thank goodness tomorrow is Friday!

Turtles

Isn't this turtle a cutie!! I love turtles, they are such amazing creatures. This stamp is from Cornish Heritage Farms, the Kim Hughes Collection. I also got the U R A Hoot stamp set and the Sweet Treats one as well (I'll have some cards with those later this week). I had actually gotten them in the mail last week but hadn't cut them out until tonight. The turtle I didn't have to cut out, but I'm silly and won't stamp until all of them are done and ready. I used scraps for this one. Honey, Citrus Leaf, and Kiwi CS along with orange embellies and some hot pink eyelets I had. The sentiment I printed from my computer. I just love these summer colors :D

This one was actually the first card I made. I used one of the nestabilities scallop circles that Sue sent me and sort of pulled the colors from the layouts I did yesterday. I used indian corn blue and cranberry, then switched out door denim and put in olive and garden green instead. Both cards use about the same layout as I'm too tired to be very creative tonight. Enjoy!
