Cupcake wish

Hi all! Today I have a gift money/card envelope to share with you today. It's similar to the size of a chinese red envelope that we use for gift money.

This was made with CC Cutters Cupcake Die and Birdie Brown digital sentiment. Paper is MME Lime Twist Out of the Blue collection. Really easy and fun to make. This one is already went to my nephew for his birthday last week, so I'll be making more soon!

Thanks for stopping by...

Have a wonderful weekend! ;D

Christmas Card...

Hi everyone!  Happy Wednesday!! It's time Lollipop Crafts Sponsor Spotlight Week #1 featuring Robyn's Fetish. Take a peek over here to learn more of this fantastic digi stamp company! For my spotlight card, I have the cute Gingerbread Baby...

Followed an older sketch from Freshly Made Sketches and used some scrap Christmas paper from Recollections line. Can you see the shiny sparkly icing on the gingerbread? Fun to try to make it look like real icing.

Do you have time to make a card or two for a great cause? This card will be donated to the Make a Keiki Smile organization. Kris (the co-owner of Lollipop Crafts) and her aunty are collaborating this year again to bring some big happy smiles to the kids at Holy Cross Hospital. Check out all the details here on Kris' blog.

Have a fantastic day! ;D

My Sunshine...

Happy Monday! and President's Day!  Hope everyone is enjoying their long weekend! Or if you're working, hope you get a chance to relax a bit. Today, there's a brand new challenge at Lollipop Crafts... and it's one of our most popular themes... ANYTHING GOES!!


I haven't made an easel card in awhile, so i thought it would be a great time to do so...

This is an adorable image from All That Scraps, Honey, from the CC Designs collection. The papers are BG's Hopscotch... love the beautiful colors! So the "rain" (top half paper) turns into "flowers" (papers on bottom), and with some sunshine brings a beautiful garden of flowers behind the picket fence! The flowers are made with CC Design Cutters, and here are some close-up pics...

the die set comes with all three flower sizes

this one is made with two of the middle size and added a small prima flower...








okay...now I can't wait till the "real" spring weather comes! That's it for me today... please stop by the Lollipop Crafts blog to see more awesome creations from my fellow team mates! There's no sponsor this week, just an easy fun challenge!

Happy Valentine's Day

Hello everyone! Hoping you all get to spend time today with those who are special to you... sending BIG HUGS to all my family and friends... and that includes you too... and of course my hubby and kids!

My card today features Sweet November's Jilly's Candle, but I've altered it so that Jilly is holding a heart stick with a couple of flowing keys. After I finished the card and thought about it... should it only be"one" key to my heart? Oh well, my two keys are for my wonderful hubby and my awesome children!

Here are a couple of pics that show the dimensions of the card...

ATS Review

Please scroll down for my Lollipop Crafts post, or click here.

Today at All That Scraps, we are reviewing our January Digistamp releases. Birthday Lucy is one of adorable new Swiss Pixie girls, and she's now available in the ATS store in both rubber or digi!

I just loved coloring her up! The ledger paper, from KC&Co., is so soft and pretty. It comes as a spiral bound paper pad, so the "notebook rip" is already there! No need for another punch! Used a CC Design Cutters Butterflies Die.. butterfly is the smaller one with some pink gems added. I didn't have small flowers to match the purple on the dress, so took some white flowers and colored them with copic markers. The gorgeous green ribbon is from my good blog-friend, Amy, and thanks to Amy, I found a new way to tie it... you can check it out here on one of her many awesome videos. She's super amazing!!

Be sure to stop by the ATS blog to see more spectacular reviews from my team-mates! All digistamps are now available at the  All That Scrap store!!

Surfer Anya at the Lily Pad

Hi all! Where do the days go??? Is it because we spend it with good friends & family and time just flies when you're having fun...like Surfer Anya! She was one of my lucky wins from TGF, and finally got to ink her up!

She's ready to ride the waves in her cute board shorts!

The dp are from another win at Amy Y.'s blog... I've been hoarding them cause they are soooo cute!! Gotta find out who the maker is! Sentiment is from Inkadinkado "just saying" set - it was a bit too big, so i cut off one outer pattern on the circle - perfect! All the edges are inked with Colorbox brown to give it a touch of distressed look. The border punch is from MS and ribbon from Michael's (one of my fave ones...am running out soon...oh noooo!)

Thanks for stopping by! ;D
