Out of this World

My daughter's are attending a birthday party for one of their little friends today. This is the card that I made for him. He's very into spaceships and space, so I think he'll like this little rocket card...I hope so anyway! :)

I tried taking several pictures of the card, but with no success getting a proper picture of the rocket with the card, so here's a close of it to show you.

This is the Mojo Monday Sketch from last week that I followed for my card.

Happy Birthday Little Lady

Tonight's card is one that I made for a birthday party that my girls are attending this weekend. I found this ladybug stamp today and I had to get it. Isn't it sweet? :) My 5 year old daughter loves ladybugs and I knew she'd love this stamp. I was right...I showed it to her this afternoon and she's already claimed it as hers! She told me, "Mama, I'll let you borrow it, if you want." LOL :)

To go with the ladybug theme, I thought I'd use this cute A Muse sentiment. But, instead of keeping it all in row like the sentiment normally is, I inked each word separately and stamped them onto the punched circle.
Well, I think I'll grab a snack and call it a day. I'll try not to leave it as long 'til I post again!

Thanks for stoppin' by! :)

Happy Birthday Little Lady

This is a birthday card that I made for the daughter of a very good friend of mine. Her daughter is turning 2 years old on Tuesday and I thought she'd like the bright colours in this card...and who doesn't like ladybugs? By the way, the eyes don't look nearly that psychotic in person, it's just the flash against the clear gems that's making them them look all crazy! lol :)

Here's a close up of the A Muse sentiment, Happy Birthday Little Lady. I love it!
This is a close up of the ribbon fed through the slots. I CASE'd this card sketch from Amy Rysavy, from a card she did for PTI. I loved her card, but mostly the way that she fed the ribbon through her card and I knew I wanted to try it. I think it gives a neat look to the card.

Well, I think I've had all I can take today of being up and moving around. Gotta retire back to my comfy bed to relax for the evening with my pain meds...or as a friend of mine put it, "better living through chemistry!" You're funny, Deborah! I seriously laughed out loud when I read that! :)

Jim's been away this afternoon on a Search and Rescue exercise flight, but he should be home soon...let's hope he brings supper with him! :) I'll try to have something else to show you tomorrow.
