Christmas Owl Fancy Favor Boxes

These gorgeous little Christmas Owls were inspired by the gorgeous little babies you will see at this link on Jacqui Crouch's blog http://crouchingdoggraphics.com.au/2011/11/10/the-bent-inks-hit-brisbane-regional-training/ ! The original design was by Dianne Pickford in Alstonville. I loved them so much when I saw Jacqui's team all wearing them! This is my version & I decided to use it as the feature for these Fancy Favor Boxes. I really love how they turned out! I used Cherry Cobbler & Old Olive card stock & I stamped the owl & gift tag in Cherry Cobbler. The gorgeous little scalloped circle is from the Perfect Pennants die which I LOVE!!! & I used a scalloped oval punch, cut in half to make the owls wings. I made these for my kids to give to their teachers for Christmas :)

Close up! Merry Christmas Everyone :)

Sympathy Card

This is a fairly recent Sympathy Card that I made for a lady & her family. This is so different to anything I have made so far, but I just wanted to make sure they new how much I was thinking of them & was so very sorry for their loss. Life is so very sad sometimes♥

Anniversary or Valentines Day Card

I made this card last week for my Dad to give to my Mum for there wedding anniversary. I used the I (heart) hearts set & embossed the backgound with the perfect polka dots embossing folder. I really love the Melon Mambo & Basic Black together & think this would make a great Valentines Day card too♥ Hope you like it :)

Journals for Yasminah's Gift of Hope

These are some of the journals that I have decorated this year in memory of my little girl, for Yasminah's Gift of Hope. These journals are given to families that saddly experience the miscarriage, still birth or neonatal loss of their precious baby, for the family to record all their precious memories in. The journals are all lovingly decorated by volunteers throughout Australia & are distributed to families through Hospitals & YGOH themselves.

Cottage Garden Medallion Cards

I love this Medallion Background Stamp. This was the first time I used it & I really love how it turned out! 'The Love Life & it will love you back' sentiment & butterfly is from one of my favourite sets, 'Cottage Garden'! At the bottom of the cards I have layered 3 of our border punches ~ The scallop ribbon border, Lace Ribbon Border & Scallop Border Punches. I also used the Decorative Label, Boho Blossoms & Scallop Oval punches. I didn't realise until I finished making this one that I managed to use 6 different Stampin' Up! punches!!!

Tempting Turquoise & Crumb Cake colours :)

Melon Mambo & Crumb Cake Colours :)

I wanted to challenge myself with these, because I always tend to stick to the Brights or Subtles, so I thought I would add some Crumb Cake into the mix & I really like it!

For the Newlyweds

A gorgeous friend of mine got married a few months ago & this was the card I gave to them both. They had a black & white themed wedding & it was just beautiful. Actually the most beautiful wedding I have ever been too! I used Whisper White & Basic Black cardstock & cut the butterflies using the beautiful butterflies die & then embossed them with the vintage wall paper embossing folder. (If you haven't noticed already I love this butterfly die & use it on almost everything LOL) To finish them off I added a little bling♥

My Little Angel ~ Scrapbook Page

This is a page I made for my precious baby girl in Heaven♥ The gorgeous paper is from last years Nursery Necessities DSP pack. The beautiful Sunset Butterfly is by the gorgeous Carly Marie. In honour of her precious Son's memory, Carly writes the 'Names in the sand' of all the precious children that are gone to soon, as well as these beautiful sunset butterflies. I can't tell you how much these images mean to me. I love them so much!

Easter Treats ~ Fancy Favor Baskets

For Easter this year, I gave everyone in our family one of these little Fancy Favor Baskets full of easter eggs.

Tall Tales Birthday Card

This cute little card I made for my Little Man's Best Friend earlier this year. I love this Tall Tales DSP & I'm so sad that it's no longer available as it was always so great for boys cards! I've also used Old Olive & Chocolate Chip cardstock & the Wish Big sentiment is from the set "Word Play" which is still available :) 

Brights Card & Matching Pillow Box

These are a Card & Matching Pillow Box that I made for a friend a little while ago. I didn't really know how they would turn out to start with, especially because I decided on so many very bright colours, but I ended up really happy with the end result.

I used Old Olive, Pacific Point & Melon Mambo all from the Brights colour family & a piece of Pumpkin Pie polka dot DSP & of course the Beautiful Butterflies die & Pillow Box die & embossed them using the Vintage Wallpaper Embossing Folder.
