Trick or treat gift bag....

Flutterby Wednesdays challenge this week was to incorporate buttons on your card! Well,I decided to make some trick or treat gift bags for the little ones that come to our door this Halloween....seeing as we only get maybe 5 or 6 kids! We live a little bit out in the country and only have a few neighbours...so I can do something special for them!

I used Pippi from my Swiss Pixies stamp collection...I thought she was just darling in her little pumpkin outfit. I made some pumpkins (again) for my card just hand cutting a pumpkin shape and then taking marker to make the swirls.

I hope you are enjoying your Wednesday and the sun is out and making it nice and warm. Here it is a little overcast but very cool! Thank-you so much for popping in for a visit!

Babies are Heaven sent....

Over at Flutter by Wednesdays, Danni has a wonderful challenge: Create a new creation using Pink along with a butterfly, angel or fairy. Pink is my favourite colour so this challenge was a must for me! For my card I cut out a moon and then chalked the edges, then I used some white felt from Papertrey, cut a cloud the best I could, put lots of glitter around the edges. I then used one of my Whipper Designs baby images to place on the moon. And then...added a little butterfly!!!

I hope you are having a wonderful weekend! Sorry to make this post short, but I am off to hockey with my son!

A Birthday Celebration & a Challenge!

A very special blogger has a challenge and a birthday to celebrate this week! Danni is having a birthday this Saturday and she is the creator of FlutterbyWednesdays....so she is having us make a birthday card for the challenge. It must have a butterfly, angel or a fairy on it and you must use the sketch Mercy has created for the Flutterby Challenge!

For my little birthday card I used one of the cutie C.C. Designs and popped her up on a little fence!

Happy Birthday Danni........

Apple of my eye....

I was at the grocery store buying apples for tonights apple crisp desert...this time of the year I just love when all the fresh fruits and vegetables come out on the store shelves. So my card today is inspired by tonights desert! It is amazing were ones inspiration comes from!

I used my magnolia fence and magnolia apple basket and had my little hAnglar leaning beside it...you cannot tell by my terrible pictures but my little little guy is popped up along with my Karen Lockhart itty bitty apple stamps. I coloured with copics today...which I have also discovered I do need some new colours to add to my growing collection.....

I just love finishing off the inside of my cards if time allows!

I am going to put this into Flutterby Wednesdays challenge,which is an open one....anything goes as long as your creation has a butterfly, fairy or angel on it!

Thank-you so much for popping in and having a visit...I so appreciate your visits !

Pretty in Pink...

Flutter by Wednesdays has a new challenge this week, it is an open challenge, just be sure to have a butterfly, fairy or angel on your creation! So my little miss is my little fairy image!!!

For my card I pulled out my C.C. Designs spring collection and the distress inks. I stamped the little girl and after colouring her with the distress inks, cut her out and popped her on the fence. A little stitching on the card and voila!

Have a wonderful Wednesday!

Round Top Basket.....

Good Wednesday to all..
Every year I like to make the kids their little Easter baskets, and last year I found this wonderfully cute basket to make, now it is my template for all their little treats! Here are
the instructions for this easy basket!

A couple of weeks ago I received my #1 spring kit from C.C. Designs and just find it has been so fun to work with, so I have now ordered the #2 Spring Kit! I cannot wait to get that cute set! Oh the fun never stops. Over at Flutter by Wednesdays challenge it is open, the only rule is you must have a butterfly ,angel or a fairy on your creation! So I am hoping this little creation will be ok!

Have a wonderful Wednesday!

...thinking of you....

This has been such a crazy busy day...running kids here there everywhere! I totally love it...one day they will all be gone and I will miss these days! I was able to sneak in the craft room and get a little creative. I have to say that easel cards are one of my favourite designs...so I thought I would try something a little different and make the top part an arch. This wonderful "White Queen" from the new digital Spesch Stamps company is so perfect I thought to have her in her own little garden. I hope it looks ok! To create my arch I cut a piece of cardstock into a rectangle and then placed a dessert plate on top and traced an arch. Voila it seems to have worked!

I am going to put this easel card into Flutterby Wednesdays challenge! I actually found a butterfly punch... so I am good to go!
Enjoy what is left of the weekend....
