Hello
Popping in to share my Boo Boo card for Darnell’s challenge here
I made this card a few days ago and shared.
It is a perfectly OK card with one big exception. It is a 21st card. Great for a 21st, however the intended recipient is only 20!
I didn’t realise until all stuck down and ready for the pics.
It will be used – no doubt there is another 21st not to far away.
I hope you are having fun on the hop.
I will catch up with the hop tomorrow.
Thanks for stopping by
Cheers
Vicki
Hello
I hope the Easter bunny found you and you are all recovering from over eating chocolate goodies.
Today I am sharing two cards
I am linking to the following challenges
Scrapbook Boutique – March Mood Board here
and
Unstampabelles – Keys to success here
My first card for SBB
I started with Kaisercraft Le Chateau 6″ paper pad and added Mpress Birdcage die cut in both foam and black cardstock along with an Elizabeth Craft Design bird die. I finished with a stamped “21” from Uniko Classic numbers. This card is for a 21st this weekend where the gift is a budgie in a cage.
My second card
Whilst flicking through the paper pad I thought this paper was perfect for the Unstampabelles current challenge. What better mark of success that reaching the ripe old age of 21 (again!)? As Ms E had requested a number of cards I thought this would be great for a male 21st card. I added die cut “21” from SU Large Numbers Framelits, “st” from Lifestyle Crafts and the “birthday” from PTI. Die cuts from black cardstock and foam. This card unfortunately isn’t going to the intended recipient. The birthday boy is only 20! I am a year to early. I wonder if this is what Darnell had in mind for her upcoming boo boo challenge? Anyway I am sure it wont get wasted – there is bound to be a male 21st not to far away.
On another note I appear to be having issues with my blog reader. If I have missed visiting you I apologise. I am working on the issue and hope it is resolved soon.
Until next time
Cheers

My husband’s nephew is turning 10 this week.
I have used an arrow stamp from Kaisercraft Konstrukt stamp set stamped in Stampin UP! pumpkin pie and bashful blue inks. The “HB2U” sentiment is from Papertrey ink Boy Basics Game on and the “You’re” is from Paper tray. I die cut the 10 using Quickutz die and pumpkin pie cardstock. Finished by popping up with tape and some glossy accents.

I friend I met through playgroup is having a Birthday this weekend. I have made this card for her. I think there will be one or two beverages to celebrate as well as lots of laughs and dancing with friends and possibly a few pics taken.
I have used 3 stamp sets (see below for exact names) from The Craft’s Meow to make the “Photo”. Stamped using Melon Mambo, Tempting Turquoise and Pacific Point Ink and markers from Stampin UP!

Before I go just want to put my mum hat on and share some great news. Miss E (17) and Miss S (13) are swimming for their school on Thursday night. Well done. The best news is Miss E has made captain of the team – she found out earlier this morning at a team meeting. What a great start to her last year of high school.
Thanks for stopping
Hope you are having a great week
Cheers

The card I made for Miss S (13) to take to the party she went to on Saturday night.
At the moment the girls want me to make cards for their friends with the recipients name on it. Once the paper is selected these cards generally go together reasonably quickly and I am using bits from my scrap draw – although it still looks full to me!
I used the alphabet die from Quickutz and the sentiment is from Uniko Fontiments – birthday.
We also included this in Chanelle’s gift. Original pattern included in the book Softies – http://www.whileshenaps.typepad.com Abigail Patner Glasenberg
By all accounts she was very pleased with her bag of Owl inspired gifts.
Happy Monday
Cheers

I have made this for Miss E’s friend who is having an 18th tonight.
You are probably saying to yourself right now there is a lot going on here on this card and tag! As Chanelle loves owls – owls had to be involved. As for the colour choices – simple they had to match the owl necklace we bought at a chain jewellery store. She has a rather good sense of humour – so we managed to find (a child’s) back pack made of an all over owl print YEAH. We then proceeded to fill it with owl only contents YEAH. I’m sure others observing 3 girls and their mum shop were very entertained. I can’t say choosing a gift for Miss S (13) to take to her party tonight was as much fun.
What I have used
Stamps – Uniko Fontiments Birthday, Stampin UP! Pennant Parade
Paper – Cardstock – mostly bits a mix of American Crafts and unknown, Jillibean Soup Spotted Owl 6×6 pad
Punches and Dies – Fiskars 2″ circle, Stampin UP! Owl punch, PTI heart-2-heart #2, MFT Dienamics Traditional Tags Stax, Quickutz Deckhalls Alphabet, CC Designs Leafy Branch
Sizzix Chevron Embossing folder, scrap felt, Washi Tape from the Stamp Spot #60 and Kaszazz Organdy Orange ribbon

I didn’t think I would make the ABS monthly challenge deadline with this one – but I might just sneak in.
It is a busy time in our house this week – just got news of more things to happen over the next week!
Anyway it is Miss 12’s birthday Sunday – from Sunday 3 teenagers!
This is the card I have made for her. She loved this paper when I got it the other day (I have made cup cake toppers too – but I’ll share those when I’ve made the cupcakes!)
I am linking this upto the CAS(E) Challenge and ABS monthly challenge – stripes. I have used AnnaBelle Stamps new digi paper, PTI Paper Tray and See D’s Alphabet numbers set and die cut the numbers with a Quickcutz die. The ribbon is also AnnaBelle stamps.
and
I think she will like this come Sunday morning.
Thanks for coming back for the third post of the day.
Cheers
Vicki
