Teachers Birthday Card

Last week was Kamili's Teacher's Birthday! This is all fine and dandy, but I literally found out after breakfast the day of! Which kills me because I make things:) And by things I mean things that take more then 5 mins to pull together. The good thing was when we got to school, I was one of many moms who had found out the same way! So we pooled together and got her a gift. I told them i would take care of the card...so this is what I came up with! Thanks for coming by~H

Club 3d project

Yesterday I posted the card I made with my club this month. Since it was a bit labor intensive, I wanted to give them a "break" when it came to the 3-d. I love these card sticks and they are so easy to make!!! We filled them with skittles that coordinated in color with our just add cake DSP. Punched out two scalloped squares and stapled them onto the bag to make sure it wouldn't open! Then started layering the embellishments!
simple and sweet!

August Club Card

I wanted to try out my new embossing folders that have been burning a hole in my box:) I needed to use them so I figured I would throw two of them on my club card. I was very happy with this card and it seemed at least that my club members were to! I love this little butterfly set, kindness matters. But I wanted to go neutral with a pop of color. I was going to try it first with orange and yellow,and I am sure I would have loved it...but I figure that my members will probably want to see something a bit different so I went out of my comfort zone:) I think the blues and greens REALLY pop! Above is a a close up, we used crystal effects on the center butterfly and popped it up. Distressed and added a pearl to the K on thanks!

Thank you for coming by!

First Day of Kindergarten

So my little Kamili started Kindergarten a week and a half ago! She is doing great an absolutely loving her teacher and class! I am so glad since she is young in the class we weren't sure if she should have waited until next year to start. I guess only time will tell, but so far so good:) Here she is by our front door waiting to leave!

And here is our whole crew at her schoolAnd waiting in line to go in her class! Thanks for stopping by! Be sure to check back tomorrow for some Christmas cards!

Halloween Swaps

So a few weeks ago I was invited to participate in an organized swap. I usually don't do many swaps, I am just not a "mass producing" kinda girl. But I am trying to break out of my shell, so I thought I would go for it. As much as I NEVER want to see dazzling diamonds again(just kidding) I actually enjoyed this card. So here it is, I don't think the picture gives it justice:) The skeleton and "P" are fully glittered and popped up. The top black layer is a strip of basic black cs that I distressed to death and split into two layers, then "ruffled" it as I applied it to the card.
Here is a group of them together. Thanks for coming by!

Kamili's Party

It has been a CRAZY week! My little Kamili turned 5, we had a party and she started Kindergarten! Plus my little Makai had her preschool orientation! I will have pictures of Kamili's first day later this week, and I am sure Makai's to since it is on Tuesday! Above is a picture of the candy buffet I had set up, there are some up close pictures below, so on to the party...

Here is the girls before the party They were having fun modeling in the Minnie mouse clothes.

Here are the "minnie" cupcakes I made...

And the Minnie Mouse cake pops

All of the kids went home with a goodie bag that had Minnie mouse things inside. I also had made one of these tank tops for each of the little girls that attended!

The party was a blast! See you again soon.

Minnie Mouse Invites

So my little Kamili turns 5 this weekend! I can't believe I am going to have a kindergartener this year!!!! Well she LOVE Minnie mouse so that will be the theme of her party. I had to fight with the theme a bit, because the current Minnie is PINK! And well most of you know how I feel about pink, so I had to make it my own:) SO here are the invites.... I hand cut the bows from a retired paper pack, and used retire SU! ribbon as well. The cardstock is basic black, whisper white and real red. I punched the Minnie's out with two different sized punches and popped them up!

Here is the second page. I printed it off MDS and added a little Mickey stick on brad.

And here is the back of the invite. I was pretty happy with them. I'm starting to really love MDS! Be sure to check back to see pictures from the party! There will be lots of RED, BLACK and WHITE!!!
