I was inspired by a blog that I follow...they were making little signs for the doors at a camp...for the campers. They actually cut out most of the cute critters on the Campin Critters cart. The Critters were so cute...I had to drag that cart out and play. I actually chose the sentiment first...too funny. I also tried to keep this simple and man-ish...you can never have enough man birthday cards. I also remembered to stamp BEFORE I embossed. No swears were uttered while constructing this card.Thanks for stopping by my happy place...Lee-Ann :)

Somebunny loves you



I made this one for my daughter...I'm not sure if this will be her birthday card or her Valentine's card...probably Valentine's Day...that's why I left the inside sentiment blank. I've mentioned in the past that she is bunny driven...loves rabbits...that's why I try to make her a rabbit card for all holidays. Anyways...I think it turned out cute...and I was able to use a paper pad that I've had for a while and not used. Perfect! Lee-Ann :) Thanks for stopping in...

Owl be Seeing you...

I decided to pull out the Campin' Critters cart and play. There's so many cute little images on this. Love the owl and I think the sentiment is perfect. I went a little pop dot crazy...love a little dimension! Thanks for dropping by...Lee-Ann :)

ps...I actually made my own buttons on this card...love it! I punched out 3-5/8" circles...layered and glued them together, then I used my Imaginisce punch to punch holes where they go on a button, then I stuck my buttons down on my Cricut Mat...rubbed well to make sure they're going to stay...then I applied Diamond glaze to the top...let them dry on the Cricut mat, if you don't...the image will curl and then crack if you try to flatten it after...believe me...I figured this out the hard way on images before. Once dry...I inked the edges of my buttons...and voila...homemade matching buttons. My pic doesn't show the shiny finish...but it's there. It's cloudy outside today...

Recipe:

  • Cricut cart-Campin' Critters pg 36, owl cut at 3.5"
  • Bazzill Kraft cardstock**
  • CTMH-Grey Wool ink
