Hello Kitty Birthday

Today's post is a tradition I've started with my nieces for their birthdays...making them a purse and card, then putting a couple of other fun things in it.  I saw a Hello Kitty pattern by Lynn Pratt here and thought it would be the perfect thing for a four year old.  So cute!!




Thanks for looking and have a great day!

RHSSC18 - The Open Sea

It's time for another Red Hot Stampers sketch challenge and here is my take on this week's sketch.  As soon as I saw the diagonal on this sketch I knew I was going to make a masculine card and use The Open Sea set.  Love this set because I don't have to think a lot when I use it.  Of course, it helps when I have a great sketch to follow. :)  To see other cards using this same sketch click here.

RHSSC16 - Just for You

Merry Christmas everyone! I hope your day is filled with family, friends and fun...and of course celebrating our Savior's birth. My sister-in-law posted a song by Selah on Facebook Christmas Eve day and it's been in my head.  Listen to it here if you have the time.  It's a great song!   Now on to this week's Red Hot Stampers challenge.  I knew I wanted something with snowflakes because that's what we should be having right now in this part of Michigan, so I quickly whipped this card up using one of my favorite colors and a new punch I finally bought.  Make sure you click on the Red Hot Stampers link to check out more cards for this design...or even play along if you'd like. :)





Thanks for looking and have a great day!
