Party Owl

I have been needing to restock my card boxes with some girl cards...


Bright colours and the Owl Builder Punch suited to a T.


  • I love the Clockworks stamp set which I have used more often for its abstract images than for its clock images.  Here I have combined Melon Mambo, Daffodil Delight and Regal Rose.
  • The owl's party hat is cropped using the Petite Pennants Builder Punch, chopped off at the half way point.
  • A festive pom pom is made using one of the flowers from the Itty Bitty Shapes Punch Pack.  I used Paper Snips to clip between each petal to allow for some 'fluff.'

Stamps:  Clockworks, Itty Bitty Banners
Card:  Daffodil Delight, Melon Mambo, Whisper White, Brights Designer Series Paper Patterns Stack
Ink:  Daffodil Delight, Melon Mambo, Regal Rose, Black StazOn
Tools:  Owl Builder Punch, Petite Pennants Builder Punch, Itty Bitty Shapes Punch Pack
Accessories:  Basic Rhinestones

Birthday Banner

I made part of this (the 'happy') for a launch a year or two ago.

 
 
You can tell because the 'Wish Big' is stamped using the old style ink pad - not as clear.  Last week I set to work to create a second banner to go with it.
 

We were shown this idea at a Convention and I loved that the whole thing could concertina up like this.


Which means it can fit into something like this..


A birthday present for my niece.

Stamps:  Pennant Parade
Card:  Marina Mist, Poppy Parade, Just Add Cake DSP
Tools:  Big Shot, Petite Pennants Builder Punch, 4.4 cm Circle Punch, Perfect Pennants Bigz die, Timeless Type Alphabet Letters Sizzlit dies, Paper Piercing Tool
Accessories:  Gold Brads

Petite Pennants... for girls

Last week we stamped-a-stack of girl cards.


We revisited the Petite Pennant Builder Punch to create this card.


  • Part of the fun at the end was embellishing the pennants with little feminine touches.
  • The Itty Bitty Shapes Punch Pack and the Bitty Buttons are a match made in heaven, providing texture and shine to the card
  • The Bitty Butterfly new in our Seasonal catalogue was a must add.
Stamps:  Pennant Parade
Card:  Tangerine Tango, Melon Mambo, Pretty in Pink, Whisper White
Ink:  Melon Mambo
Tools:  Petite Pennant Builder Punch, Itty Bitty Shapes Punch Pack, Bitty Butterfly Punch, 3/4" Circle Punch,, Fancy Fan Textured Impressions Embossing Folder and the BIG SHOT

Easter Treats

Jessica, one of my team members has had her mum staying.  Together they have been crafting up a storm and gave me these Easter Treats.

How cute is this ideas??  Fluffy bunny tails!


And of course, the packaged bunny poop.


I think you could package up chocolate covered sultanas as poop for any season - reindeer poop, bunny poop, leprecaun poop, ghost poop, cupid poop....you get the idea.

Thanks for stopping by!

Soda Pop Tops

Stampin' Up's Soda pop Tops are one of the unusual items in the new Seasonal catalogue and they are sooo fun to play with.



You can use them as is or you can squish 'em through the Big Shot.  See, told you you need one.



  • A squished Soda Pop Top makes it more post friendly.
  • The 1" circle punch is the perfect fit to pop out a circle of DSP. 
  • The Hexagon Textured Impressions Embossing Folder is a great option to add a bit of texture to this card.
Card:  Whisper White, Pool Party, Tangerine Tango, Island Indigo, Sycamore Street DSP
Tools:  Big Shot for squishing, Apothecary Accents Framelits, 1" Circle Punch, Bitty Butterfly Punch
Accessories:  Basic Rhinestones, Soda Pop Tops

Thanks for stopping by!
