Happy Valentine's Day everyone - I love this day!  A great excuse to just be extra sweet to each other!  Anyway, just popping in quickly to share a birthday card I made for a male friend...

Here are the goodies I used...

Lil' Inker Designs Mini Party die set

Lil' Inker Designs Balloon Builders stamp set

 Die-namics Peek-a-Boo Trio window die

 Craft Concepts Starry Night embossing folder

Scenic Route Lynden papers

American Crafts Delight fabric letter stickers

 Okay, I am off!  ttfn!

Whoo loves you?

It's Friday - yay!  And my card today is this cute little Burt The Owl by Pollycraft - I just love him!  The challenge over at Pollycraft Monday challenge this week is "fly me to the moon" so the perfect excuse to get him coloured in!

I used the Hero Arts woodgrain background and embossed it with clear powder to create a subtle background - perhaps too subtle, lol!!

That's it from me today - have a great weekend everyone!

Wow, the last two weeks have been incredibly busy for me so very little crafting time. I've missed it big time! Then one of my best friends asked me to make some invitations for a dinner party she is having for her mother's 75th birthday. She didn't have any theme or suggestions on what she wanted so I had to put in some extra brain time! So this is what I came up with...

I am sure there is some challenge I could submit it to, but I've been so busy I haven't had a chance to catch up on all my blogging! I should be able to find some more time to create this week - fingers crossed!

I've also got a couple of Maya Road alphabet chipboard sets left so if you want one, leave a comment here!
