Easter Bunny with From the Heart

Hello all and Happy Thursday...or what I call Almost Friday.  I've been wanting to join in on the From The Heart Stamps weekly I {heart} Card sketches, and finally have a chance to participate.
I'm using the adorable little Easter Bunny.  I think his face is so sad and want to give him a big ol' cuddle.  Well, I am a bunny lover - but unfortunately can no longer raise them due to allergies.  Anyway, great sketch this week!  Thanks so much for stopping by!

Hello all and Happy Tuesday.  Today I'm sharing a new release from Bugaboo Stamps - Cow Trio:

Happy Bird with From The Heart Stamps

Hello all and Happy Monday!  Today I woke to freezing temperatures - after a week of beautiful spring like weather.  Oh well, I'm not going to complain.  Anyway, I want to share my entry on the From The Heart Stamp of the Month.
A little different for me.  I wanted her to be bright, and I was following Cely's lead with the white die cuts and Catherine's wonderful one word sentiment: happy.  I don't feel I really pulled it off like these talented ladies, but I gave it a go.  And if you don't know about the progressive challenge at From The Heart Stamps, you are missing out!  That's it from me today.  Thanks for stopping by!  My card meets the following challenges: ABC Challenge: D is for Die cut, and Crafts Galore Encore: Use a Stamp or Digi.

Mouse Hearts with Bugaboo Stamps

Hello all and Happy Friday!  Today I'm sharing a New Release from Bugaboo Stamps - Mouse Hearts.  For some reason I'm drawn to the mice.  They are so cute.  Of course, real ones make me scream and jump on chairs!
BTW, you really need to take a look at the other new releases from Bugaboo Stamps.  There are so many on my wish list!!  Just a CAS card and short post for today.  My little one has RSV and I'm barely alive thanks to a gazillion cups of coffee!

Little Gorilla with Doodle Pantry

Hello all and Happy Thursday!  Today I'm sharing a rather new release called Lil Gorilla Jungle from Doodle Pantry.
From the set I used the palm tree and paper, and the Ape is cut and popped up in front of the tree which gives it more dimension.  The sentiment is from Stampin' Up's Itty Bitty Banners and the candy dots are homemade.  I also want to mention that there is still time to enter this months Ants In My Pantry Digital Challenge #2 at the Blog (use candy with an option of using ribbon)!

Sweet Treats with Doodle Pantry

Hello and Happy Thursday!  It's almost Valentine's Day and although I'm not the most romantic person out there, I do like to celebrate just about every "holiday" with my girls.  Beanie takes lunch to school everyday, and this week I've been including little Valentine treats in her lunch bag.
Since I'm always running late, I put together these little bags lickety-split.  Sorry about the reflections from the bags.  Anyway, the bags are from Hobby Lobby - I have them on hand for little things like this, plus they come in a quantity of like a million bags!
Each bag has a few candies - since I don't want Bean's teacher to have to pay for my sugar high child.  Anyway, I simply printed out my images on cardstock, hand cut to size and added candy.  I wasn't too precise, since I needed to make these quick, and they're not meant to last forever.
My images are pre-colored from the Doodle Pantry Mice line.  I LOVE the mice, and the Valentine Hearts Mice are rather new.  Also, a reminder that Doodle Pantry Blog Ants In My Pantry Challenge this month is Candy (with optional ribbon).  Thank you so much for stopping by and have a wonderful day!  I will be sharing my treat bags in the Show and Tell Link Party at Flamingo Toes.

Movie Fun with Doodle Pantry

Hello all and Happy Hump Day.  Today I'd like to share a non-card using Doodle Pantry's Movie Ants which I thought was perfect for my movie "tickets" to go inside my gift buckets.
I made a couple of these, using the movie "ticket" to write Redbox codes or to put in movie gift cards.
I added candy and shredded paper to the metal bucket (all found at Dollar Store).
I wrapped with cellophane that I've had forever.  Each gift was no more than $15, but I thought they looked pretty darn cute!  That's my share for today.  Thanks for stopping by and have a wonderful day!  This will be entered in the All Crafts Challenge: No Cards, Craft Your Passion: Always Anything goes, and Not Just Cards: Anything Goes.

Heart Balloons with Bugaboo Stamps

Hello all and Happy Saturday!  This week at Catch the Bug, the new challenge is: ANYTHING GOES!  Usually a favorite of most, so I made a little Valentines card for my Ma:
I'm featuring Bugaboo Stamps Kids Girl Heart Balloons.  All I can say is, my Mom has the best daughter in the whole world!!  That's a joke of course!  Me and my girls are so fortunate to have her in our lives.  So join us this week if you can.
