Congrats

Hello!

The other night I as I was making this card, using several of the LLLC dies when it occurred to me that I could use felt as the material to cut out the rocking horse, so I did!

I also used felt on the MFT bib which I stitched, not so professionally, using some brown thread.  The rest of it came together pretty quickly.  The polka dot corrugated paper was a nice touch giving this card another fun dimension.  Adding the baby button on top and the sentiment was the last touch to this pretty fun card.  I've already cut up some other felt rocking horses and will probably create more CAS cards like these for my stash.

Alrighty time to sign off, it'll be time for me to wake up soon.  Thanks for stopping by!  Have a great day!!

KBD - Monday Monthly Spotlight

Hello everyone!

Happy Monday!  Today is the first Monday of the month and I'm up for a spotlight on the Kitty Bee Designs blog.  Today I'm sharing an up-cycle project featuring the sweet Giraffe Cutie digital stamp. I had a lot of fun with this project and love the end result.

This is one of those treat bags one of my swap partners sent to me.  That is why you see the creases towards the top of the bag.  I thought it would be fun to keep the bag and maybe use it for a project.  I guess it is a little rough around the edges, but the rest of it came out the way I had hoped.  Here's a close-up.  This shot looks a lot better!  (hahaha)

I reallyl can't believe I made this!  (hahaha)  Talk about going out side the box.  I'm pretty stoked with the end result.  After printing out Giraffe cutie I colored and fussy cut her out.  I thought it would be cute to add the pink and white floss as a bow on her.  I used the same floss for the tag.  I used several dies for this section.  Here is the list: rolling rose from CC Designs, designer mini tags & mini leaves from Taylored Expressions, and the following Die-namics from MFT: mini rolled roses, chevron stripes & grosgrain texture board, and lastly from Little B: circle and scallop dies.  I also used a swiss dot embossing folder on the white circle die.  In the center of at least 3 of the roses are half pearls.  The sentiment was handwritten by me.

Hello Little One

If you would like to purchase Giraffe cutie you can pick him/her up in the Kitty Bee Designs etsy store along with a few other adorable images created by our AWEmazing owner Ruth.  I know there are a couple more giraffes I would love to pick up to make some other baby projects and with the holidays upon us there are tons of cute images to create that special project with.  If you're not in to giraffes, there are a ton of other adorable images you can choose from, including a whole bunch of new and fun animals.  Can't wait to see what you all make!!

Thanks so much for stopping by today.  I hope you enjoyed my project and will think about upcycling something to turn it in to something new.  Until next time, have a great Monday & enjoy your November days!!

Turning 6 years old!

Hello!

Today I have a fun birthday card to share featuring an older CC Designs stamp from the Kiki La Rue line.  The image, called Sweet Kiki La Rue. is not only adorable she was the perfect choice for this birthday card I made for a sweet little girl...

I used several dies from CC Designs, MFT, Little B and a circle punch.  The pink cardstock is from MFT and the patterned paper is from Wild Rose Designs.  Also used was a white/purple twine from Doodlebug Designs and a white gel pen.  Everything was colored with Copic markers.

Below are some close-ups of the card.  First up is the flower with the #6 inside.  Yep this little girl just turned 6, she's a big girl now!  I used a Little B scallop die, a circle punch from Marvy and the #6 from CC Designs Cutter bubble numbers die.  I used Copics to color all three elements and then used my WOS clear glitter brush pen to give it a nice coat of sparkle.

Up next is Sweet Kiki La Rue herself.  I'm not so good with blonde hair, but this isn't too bad, is it? hahaha.  I stamped her in brown instead of black to give her a softer look.  I think she's adorable!!

There is nothing like having a double scoop with a cherry on top to make your birthday extra special right?  hehehe,

This card is already on it's way to the birthday girl and I hope she likes it.  Thanks so much for stopping by today.  Happy Hump day!!
