Mouse card for Jennifer

 Hope everyone is having a nice weekend.  We are enjoying some beautiful weather before the rain comes in this week.  Jennifer is doing great in school so far getting 100% on her first spelling test, so I decided to make this adorable little mouse to tell her how proud we are of her progress so far.


There's nothing more cute than an adorable little mouse enjoying her ice cream cone!  This stamp set/dies I purchased from Gina K.  It's called Ice Cream Social.  She has a new designer who is creating such adorable new stamps sets.  I used SU's Polish Pink CS for my base card and her Master Layout Set #2 for the layer.  I popped everything else up and used my Pink Jelly roll to color in the ice cream.


For my inside sentiment, I used Colorado Craft Co.'s stamp set - Proud of You stamp.  I am trying to use up some my stash and found this cute washi tape to decorate the inside.

Birthday Card for Juan

 We celebrated our Great Grandson's birthday over Labor Day.  He turned 3 years old which is so hard to believe.  It seems like yesterday he was born!  I was thinking about what kind of card to make for him and found this cute card over at Pinterest.  


I added some layers to the number 3 and the balloons to make them stand out! This was a larger card - 5 1/2" x 7 1/4" - so I made an envelope with my  envelope maker.


For my inside sentiment, I used SU's Happiest of Birthdays stamp set.  I love this set and have used it so many times!  I used my SU balloon punch to decorate the inside!


They celebrated his birthday by going to the Crayola Co. Here is a picture of Jennifer and Juan painting.  He loves to paint!


Of course, he loves Spiderman!  He loved his cake and the night light he now has in his room!


He loves blowing out candles and singing Happy Birthday!!  So cute!  We had a great time!

Beehive Box

 Today's post is a little beehive box that I made to go with the Fluffiest Friends card that I made for Jennifer on my last post.  I saw this over at Brenda Quintana's blog - Beehive Box.  I knew Jennifer would like it - which she did!


I used the same stamp set and dies from SU's Fluffiest Friends and some yellow CS I had on hand.  I am trying to use up old CS that has been collecting in my drawer.  


I used an embossing folder for the texture and some jute trim for the bow.  I filled it with some honey drops which she likes.  Brenda filled hers with some honey tea which I thought was a great idea as well.  She always makes such adorable projects! Such a cute idea!
