Butterflies

So over at Getting Cricky it was my day to post!! 
It is so wonderful to be able to be on this Design Team!!!
K Andrew Stamps are so easy to work with, they are the highest quality and  stamp beautifully!! 


So today I have made a centre step card using WINGED THINGS

I thought this would be a hard card to make but it is so easy!! I thought this sentiment from Winged Things fitted perfect with these Kaisercraft Butterflies, and paper. This stamp set is one of my favourites and is a total Must Have!! 

Here is the side view

Unusual Father's day

Today at Hiding in my Craft room We are doing Fathers Day. Mother's day is the same date for both Australia and the USA...but not Fathers Day, so I decided to let my daughter help me make this one!! 

A funny thing happened, she decided to make an adorable cute card, that she wants to give to her dad. So this is my Father's Day card inspired by my 5 year old daughter!!

This cute little elephant is from Cricut Nate's ABC's and it is simply adorable!! The paper is from the Kaisercraft paper pad One Chapter.

The sentiment is from two K Andrew Designs stamp sets Winged Things and Of Mice & Lil Men

I used my stamping pens for stamping the sentiment, this makes it easy to "mask" the word you don't need. This stamp said - Thanks for noticing me - So I used the - Thanks for me - from Of mice and Lil Men and the - loving - from winged things, really love the way this sentiment turned out!!

So now it is your turn to join this challenge at Hiding in my Craft room

Be sure to check out the Design Team creations for the week.

Do Over

Hello all my Crafty Friends!! Today at Hiding in my Craft Room we are having a "Do-over" Challenge. Take a card that you have made and give it a face lift!! 

For my card, I have used one of the first cards that I made when I was learning how to do Form-a-line patterns, stitching to make a pattern. I made a bunch of these that got better and I had not yet gone back to this one to "jazz it up"!!

So here is the original card

Pretty plain huh!! I love the stitching, which was done using verigated thread, then a few beads to bling it up, but the plain white card does not do it justice. So Makeover time!! 

Here is the card now

So much better, I think!! Same Butterfly but much better background!! The blue papers are from a paper pack called Garden party and the green/blue is from Kaisercraft's Fine and Sunny paper pad. 

The sentiment is a K Andrews Designs stamp set Winged Things, this is such a beautiful set. 

I'd also like to share TWO BRAND NEW Stamp Art Sets that are now available for Pre-Order with an expected ship date of May 25th!! If you want to be one of the FIRST to own these SUPER-CUTE sets, you'll definitely want to order TODAY (clicking on the previews will take you directly to the order page!!)...

Kids Craft


Today's Kids craft was a project that I made with my daughters preschool class. They are all 4-5 years old and all were able to do this project. 
These are bag tags that they have made for Fathers Day.

The Cricut Cartridge that we used was Boys will Be Boys. I cut the base out of  chipboard into 3" inch squares they were then covered in plain card stock, we assembled the cut and used a Xyron sticker maker so the kids could stick them easily. Punched a hole then a layer of mod podge. Some glitter and another layer of mod podge and let them dry for 24 hours. 

Here are some others that were made on the day
