Happy Birthday…

Miss S (13) wanted a green card for her friend Emily. I have made the tag (book mark) so it just sits on the flourish and flowers and can easily be taken off to use.

A couple of birthdays…

Sorry this is a long post. Hope you can bear with me.

I have made this card for a friend’s husband – apparently he isn’t happy about “the number”. I might be the same when I get there! I used punches to create the angry bird – I was inspired by a something I saw on a forum.

There is a tutorial here  http://stampinwithniki.blogspot.com.au/2011/12/angry-birds-tutorial.html.

I am linking this upto the monthly challenge at the Stamp Spot – heart – (http://thestampspot.blogspot.com.au/) I actually used to heart shapes

http://movingalongwiththetimes.blogspot.com.au/ – punch it out

Another friend shares the same birthday and I made this for her

I used lots of different sentiment stamps to make the word panel – if I miss naming one please forgive me. I also used some dies to create the flourish and the felt flowers. When I gave this to my friend this morning she couldn’t believe I had individually stamped each word.

and another version of this for Miss A’s godmother

and after seeing the angry bird I made for the card above one of Miss E’s oldest friends made a comment so I made this tag as a book mark for her.

I am linking this tag upto the challenge http://www.sarahhurleychallenges.blogspot.com.au/ – anything but a card

Thanks for hanging in there.

Mr M and Miss A have not long arrived home from school. I made them walk today as I have a house full of 13 year old girls! Better go and check the party pies.

Hope you have a great weekend.

Happy Birthday Siobhan

IMG_2985I made this for friend’s daughter who is turning 13 today – funnily her mum and I have been friends since we were about the same age – I’m not going to tell you how long that is though!

I used Penny Black Zoophatbet, Creativ ABC stamped with colorbox heliotrope and coloured with various markers. The “S” was finished off with glossy accents. I added some Kaisercraft purple ink to the edge of the name panel with a distressing tool.  Not sure what brand the cardstock and patterned paper are – just had them here! I used MFT Dienamics dies for the flowers cut in felt and SU Sizzlits Little leaves cut from CS. The flowers were finished with a mauve coloured pearl.

These are Siobhan’s favourite colours – according to my Miss S they catch the bus to school most days together.

I am linking this up to

Cup cake toppers

A busy week(end) for us.

Miss 12 is now Miss 13 and these are the cake toppers for her party on Saturday night.

IMG_2774

I used ABS stamps, the new ABS digi paper and the back was plain card stock. I posted a pic of her birthday card a few days ago – so if you missed it scroll down.

She celebrated with about 15 girls at home with pizza.

And Miss 7 is Miss 8 today these are the cake toppers for her party on Sunday and she celebrated with 14 girls and some party pies, chips and other party food.

IMG_2800

I used PTI tiny birthday treats and cardstock.

IMG_2763

I used ABS Tomorrow’s Dream for her card coloured with markers before being cut out along with MSS Simple Salutations, Creativ ABC and PTI Heart-2-Heart #2 for the balloon. I also used paper from Jillibean Soup and MFT die.

Now don’t think it’s all over – later in the week Miss 16 will be Miss 17 – so I will be back later in the week to share her card.

Thanks for visiting and taking time to leave such lovely comments.

Cheers

Happy Mail – Market Street Stamps

My parcel from the Rafflecopter widgets over at Market Street Stamps arrived yesterday. I was lucky to be drawn the winner of My Thoughts Exactly new release stamp set.

I have made this card

I have a birthday party to go to in a few weeks – so I made this for the Birthday girl.  I have used MSS ABC Background stamped in PTI Pure Poppy ink. The arrows are from MSS My Thoughts exactly stamped with SU Night of Navy ink. The Birthday sentiment is from AnnaBelle Stamps Boy’s Party and the numbers are from a set I got from Kmart.

Checked the birthday book and I have a few more birthdays this month – so I’ll be back with more.

Cheers

Vicki
