Santa's Little Helper!
I am a big Simpson's fan and love this image of Santa's Little Helper. He reminds me of my puppy looking out the car window. Santa's Little Helper is on one of the penny slider card bases so he can zoom across the card.

Camera Mini Album with Kitty

Hello Everyone! I am posting over at the Jaded Blossom's Blog today.  My daughter has been wanting a kitty cat for a long time. She wanted a kitty that likes to snuggle.. and she lucked out! I was sorta warning her that kitties like to "do their own" thing.  Rusty just adores her :)  Here is a little mini book I made for her. I used Jaded Blossom's Mini Tag Dies 2 and the spotlight stamp set, Picture This. I really like to make mini books but not a fan of my own journaling. The stamps in "Picture This" are really fun captions to add to any photos.


The shaped album fits in this "camera sleeve".




I cut this girl holding the kitty to look like my gal. The face stamp is from Peachy Keen, Christmas in July Faces.

Here is my card with Audrina. I love this sweet mermaid.. you can really let your creativity go wild coloring her.  I "fussy" cut a sea star from her hair and added that next to the sentiment.

Advise from Dorothy

Hello Everyone! I am posting over at Digi My World today. I colored up another one of the cuties from the Chibi Kids dressed as Oz collection. She is colored with a "Dorothy" vibe but she is a cute girl that could be colored for any theme. She is on a card base from our sister store, SVG Cutting Files, Dorothy Shoe Card Kit.  The perfect sentiment for her is from Jaded Blossom, Yellow Brink Road Bundle.

Jaded Blossom May 2015 Release :: A Backpack Treat


Hey Everyone! 

Now if you're here from Candace O. you're in the right place, if you're just passing through start at the beginning because you don't want to miss a thing.  I also have the complete line up at the bottom.
 
Here is what I made:
A Backpack Treat Holder
 
To make the backpack I used a new file from SVG Cutting Files,  Backpack Camping Tube Holder. The new stamps from our May Release go perfectly with this file.  I used "The Great Outdoors" and "Camping Candies" for this backpack.  The tag is from Mini Tag Dies 2.  I cut one of Jaded Blossom's Candy Tubes down to fit the top of the backpack.  My husband as fixing some of our sprinklers and I noticed he has a tool to cut pvc pipe that works perfectly for candy tubes, lol ( PVC Tubing cutter )  A hack saw would do the job too.
Jaded Blossom
sentiment, The Great Outdoors
candies, Camping Candies
