Old Friend & a Freebie!

Happy Monday!

How was your weekend? Mine went by too quickly, but I was able to get some much needed projects finished up. 

I have another freebie for you today.

I love this sweet kitty. I think she would be perfect for a Mother's Day card too. My card measures 4.25" x  5.5".  The plaid piece measures 2" x 5.5" and the dots measure 3.25" x 5.5" and the kitty was cut at 4" tall. 

I love that all of Emma's stamps coordinate with her dies. It makes designing and making cards so quick and easy!

Happy Friday!

Today is Thrifty Thursday over on the My Creative Blog. So I pulled out my scrap paper bin and got to work. I actually, really kind of like the way my card turned out.

I just love the newest princess set from Lettering Delights. My card measures 4"x 4". I cut my princess at 3.5" tall. 

I filled in her face so that I could stamp it with a peachie face.

Happy Wednesday!

Today is my sweet little Zachary's 3rd birthday! We are going to spend the day with a few of his favorite people at the San Diego Model Rail Road Museum and then going to his favorite restaurant for lunch.  

I made him a card with another one of his favorite things.

He's all about some diggers and dozers, so I know he will love it. I made a Valentine's Day card for him with the digger from this svg set too, you can see it here.

The card measures 4.25 tall x 7.5"wide and the dozer was sized at 3" tall.

St. Patrick's Day Kitty!

Happy Monday!

I have another fun Hello Kitty freebie for you today. I found this St. Patty's Day kitty and knew that I had to cover her. Can you believe it's almost St. Patrick's Day?!? This year is just flying by, for me anyway.

Anyhoo... lets get back to today's card shall we?

I made her into a shaped card. She was sized to 4"tall. I created a .1425 shadow layer around her and then welded two of them together, for the base of the card. I added the shamrock die, from My Creative Time, and a bit of twine to her hat for added effect. Add a bit of white stitching and there you have it, a quick and easy St. Patty's day card.

I also stamped a sentiment on the inside of the card.

Paper: PaperTrey Ink, Core'dinations

Winners Friday!

Happy Friday!

My post is up a bit late today, but I do have the winner from Tuesday's post!

I want to quickly talk about the magazine. I've heard a lot of people say and even ask me if the subscription to the magazine is worth the money. I think the price of the magazine is totally worth it!  The subscription is $24 a year. There are 6 issues a year, so the price works out to be $4 an issue. Which isn't bad... but the best part is that each issue is chalk full of inspiration, tutorials, tips and tricks, and product reviews. Plus each issue has lots of svg file freebies included, the free files alone are worth more then the $4 you pay per issue.  Plus if you purchase a years subscription, you will have access to all the past issues and past svg file freebies. Still not sure? You can purchase just one issue, for $5, and see for yourself!

Click here to subscribe.

Here is one more peak, of a project, that I created for the magazine.

And... the winner is...

3-D Wednesday with My Creative Time

Happy Wednesday!

Today is 3-d Wednesday over on the My Creative Time blog. 

I made this cute peep's treat basket.

 

I filled it with my favorite Reese's Pieces Eggs. Yum!

 

I sized the basket to 7.6" wide, that makes the basket 2.75" x 5.5" tall and the bunny 4" tall. I placed a piece of clear acetate between the bunny and the bag, to create a window and so that the eggs wouldn't fall out.

Paper: Core'dinations & My Minds Eye

Clear Acetate: Office Depot

Peep Basket Svg: Treasure Box Designs

Face Stamp: Sweet and Silly Face Assortment

Banner Die: My Creative Time, Chocolate Greetings Stamp Set

Sentiment: My Creative Time, To My Best Peep Stamp Set

Twine: Trendy Twine
