Happy 1/2 Birthday Lil' Chick!

Mornin' hens!
Today is Lil' Chick's half birthday.  Ya know I have to make her a card for EVERY occasion right?  Yup, she's got her momma wrapped around her finger.  Tee-hee!  Wouldn't have it any other way.


Ok, so I stamped the little image on the bottom right corner and masked off the balloon the owl was holding.  I wanted a dimensional card so I decided to die cut this big balloon and then just extended the string from the owl's wing and attached it to the bottom of the die cut balloon.  I backed the opening with some grey cardstock that I also die cut the words "happy birthday" from and inlaid red cardstock where the letters were.  I drew little black circles and filled each with a white gel pen to coordinate with the present.  To finish, I added some shading to the balloon, and few sequins for a fun confetti look.  Okee dokee, that's it for me today!  I hope you hens have a FABULOUS Friday!  {{{hen hugs}}}

One Design - Two Valentines!

Morning' hens!
I thought I'd share a couple of cute Valentine's Day cards with you, in case you need a last minute design idea.  I used this one design and made BOTH my grandson Jaxon's card and the DH's card.  Woot-woot!  Simplicity at it's BEST!


Ok. so above is Jaxon's card.  I just LOVE the sentiment.  Tee-hee!  So TRUE! The donuts were cut using my Silhouette Cameo and the sentiment was printed using my Canon printer.  Two of my FAVORITE crafting products.  CLICK HERE for a list of my TOP 10 crafting products.  


And with just a change to the sentiment (and one less donut), it's a perfect card for the DH!  Ta-dah!  What'd I tell ya!  SUPER SIMPLE, right?  I love the bright yummy colors too!  Hmmm, this post is makin me hungry!! LOL!  


Here's a close up of the donuts.  You can see the sparkle from the Wink of Stella pen and the Stickles.  They look like real sprinkles don't they?  Mmmmmm....  Am I makin you hungry yet?  Tee-hee!  Okee dokee, that's it for me today!  I hope you hens have a MAH-VELOUS Monday!
