Hello Again!

Just a quick little update this morning as things have been a little hectic lately (but school holidays are over now, so some normality should return soon!)

Today's card is brought to you by my sister over at Cats on the Table Craft.


She has used the Honeybee Home Bundle to create a bright and happy thank you card, topped off with the cute little Honeybee Trinkets.  Scroll on down to see the list of products she used.

Hello!

I can't believe another month is ending - already a third of the way through the year!

In exciting news, the new catalogue is just around the corner!  YAY!

  This month I took part in the April 2022 Colour Challenge in the SU! Color Challenge group on Facebook.


The April 2022 challenge colours are Very Vanilla, Highland Heather and Bumblebee.


As soon as I saw this colour combination, I was reminded of my bridal bouquet - I do love my purple and yellow flowers - so I had to use flowers in my card.

 It's time for another Crazy Cat Crafters Team Challenge.


With the assistance of my trusty random picker app, our monthly challenge for April 2022 is to use Poppy Parade and Just Jade.

I admit, this colour combination got me thinking - it took me a while to come up with a card... and my first idea failed miserably!

But I got there in the end!

What do you think?

 Hello Again!

So today's blog is a little different.

Recently, my 6.5yo daughter saw one of the Thank You cards I made for April's customers, using the Beauty of the Earth DSP.  She said she wanted to make a card like it.  I didn't have any more of the exact DSP but, since I know her favourite colour is bright pink, I decided an appropriate choice of DSP for her would be Expressions in Ink.  So I chose the sheet which was similar in style to the one I had chosen for my card.  She was so excited - her favourite colour!

She had also been "pestering" me to use my SCEM with a metal die - she was quite intrigued by how it worked.  She asked for a flower.  So we decided to use the In the Tropics die set for her flower.  After choosing her flower, I got the mini SCEM ready for her to use.... and off she went (she did need a little assistance turning the handle occasionally).

We chose the "thank you" stamp from the matching Timeless Tropical stamp set, which she diligently stamped onto her DSP.

She then used some Mini Dimensionals to stick her flower down, and some double sided tape to adhere her creation to the card base.

I helped her put it all together at the end.

This is the finished product:



What do you think? 

I'm pretty proud of her effort - and her card has already been sent off to her friend (I hope she likes it!)

Better get in quick, though - Timeless Tropical Stamp Set, In the Tropics Die Set and Expressions in Ink DSP are all retiring VERY SOON!!

Product List

 Time for another Crazy Challenge Monthly Insta-Hop!


This month we decided to mix it up a little!  With the new Annual Catalogue launching soon, we thought some demonstrators might be running low of some of the DSP.  So for this month it's Create Your Own Crazy Challenge!


My crazy combination has me using In Symmetry Stamp Set along with Rainbow Glimmer Paper... Interesting combination, but I thought I could make it work...




You can check out the items used in the Product List at the end of this post.
