Thanks for Owl-ways being there.

I have a cute little card to share with you today made using the sentiment and little Owl image from the Woodland Friends My Cute Stamps set from Make the day special.

To make the card, I matted spotty paper onto brown card and sewed around the edges before sticking it to the card base. I stamped the owl onto textured card and coloured him to match the paper combo. I cut around the image leaving a border and added it to the card with foam pads. I then stamped the sentiment and cut it into a strip adding a notch to the end before mounting it to the card with foam pads.
As a finishing touch, I added a button, an owl charm and a gem.
Make sure you check out Emily's Make the Day Special shop for some fab My Cute Stamp sets and many more fabulous goodies!

You're sweet!

I have a mini card to share with you today which I made with no Patterned paper! I used the cherry and sentiment from the Sweet Kawai set which is available from Make the day Special.
The finished card measures 10cmx10cm. I stamped the cherry and sentiment repeatedly on to white card and coloured the cherries in with my Promarkers.

I cut a panel from the stamped paper with my Nestabilities and layered it on to black card before sticking to the card base.
To finish the card off, I added glossy accents to the cherries, a little gingham bow and a green pearl to highlight one of the greetings.
Have a lovely Friday!

Bee Happy!

I have some ATCs to share with you which I made using the bee from a My Cute stamps set from Make the Day special.
Emily has some adorable My Cute Stamps set in the shop, including some Christmas sets if you are starting your Christmas cards early! These ATCs are for a 'Things with wings' themed swap and this smiley little bee was perfect for my Bee Happy sentiment!
Have a lovely Friday!

Sweet things!

I was so excited when Emily told us she was going to be stocking 'My Cute Stamp' sets at Make the Day special. I couldn't wait to get my hands on some and have a play, Instead of just one card today, I have two cards to share with you made using the adorable 'Sweet Kawai' set.

These sweet little stamps are just crying out to be coloured in with really juicy vibrant colours. I took inpsiration for my colour theme from one of my favourite paper ranges, Bobunny double dots.

I coloured the donut to match the pink card and added glossy accents to look like glaze and some beads for sprinkles. The card was made using a Sizzix die and embossed with the Cuttlebug double dots folder.
I cut the image out with Nesties and also cut a larger panel using the coloured card. After stamping the sentiment I wrapped ribbon around the coloured card and assembled my topper using foam tape for all the layers. As a finshing touch I added a bow and a stick on pearl.
The green card was put together in the same way minus the beads. I love how these cards turned out and their simplicity. I am tempted to make a whole set of them now in all the Bobunny colours!
I hope you have a lovely Friday!
