Sizzix Eat More Cake Step-Up Birthday Card

Image
I loved making this card! I used Stephanie Barnard's  Basic Step-Up Card die for the base, and Brenda Walton's Layered Cake die for the cake sections and scalloped trims. I used a Tim Holtz Handwritten stamp set for the cake sentiment, and an Altenew 'Label Love' stamp for the Happy Birthday. The candle stamp is from Stampin' Up's Balloon Bash set, and papers are from First Edition's Bella Rose pad. Some of the products used:

Garage Sale Table Redo

While out and about a couple of weeks ago doing our garage sale thing, we found this sofa table-coffee table-not sure what kind of table, for only 5 bucks.  Well, we sure couldn't pass that up and turns out it was perfect timing.   I've been gathering pieces here and there to start redoing our oldest son's room.  My first born is 19 soon to be 20, going to college and working and I thought it was about time to give him a more adult room.  His room is the last on our bedroom design agenda, so, I'm pretty excited about getting started on it.  It has looked the exact same for the last 6 years and I know he is ready for a change.   One of the things I needed to find for him was a bedside table and so I thought, why not turn this table into one.  The top of the table is just awful.  Paint, oil, gunk, and a thick lacquer type top coat.  Here's a couple of shots of the table when we brought it home. It's very retro and cool.  And here...

Dutch the Fox Tags Pivot Card

Here's another card I made for Els of Elizabeth Craft Designs to take to a Trade show  in Japan. It needed to be a simple, 'cute' character card, and I used the Tags Pivot Card die set for the base, along with Dutch the Fox . I used tags and hole reinforcers from the Tags Pivot set, and a border from the Paris Borders set. I thought I'd try out some non-traditional fox colours! I also added a speech bubble from the Lorna Label PopUp set, and 'hello' from the Rectangle Accordion set. I kept the card front quite simple, and added some ECD flowers. Some of products used:
