365 Cards Day 258 "Put a Lid on It"



WOW! It has been a long time since I have had the opportunity to post anything!!! My computer was broken for a while. When I got it back Norah (1 1/2 years old) had become obsessed with the Count from Sesame Street- I know, strange :}. Anyway, every time someone turned on the computer she wants to watch the Count on sesamestreet.org. So, all of my computer time was gone!!!
I have since learned to close the computer cabinet when she is around (out of sight out of mind, lol). She is really a riot. She dressed up as the Count for Halloween. So funny, most little girls are dressed as princesses and such. Not Norah. She is an independent soul.

Anyhooo, here is my card for today. Hopefully, it won't be another month and a half before I get to play along again. The challenge at 365 Cards today was to use a hat on your card.

I picked up the stamp at Michael's yesterday in the $1.50 bin. He is sooo cute. The paper is from a DCWV Holiday Stack, also from M's. (I got a gift card for my birthday last week and it had been burning a hole in my wallet!!lol). The sentiment is from one of the Studio G mini clear stamp sets that I am addicted to.

For a little extra fun I made his buttons and pompom out of gems- classy snowman.

Have a great day, thanks for popping by and I will see you again soooooon (I hope!)

365 Cards Day 172 "ABCs and 123s"


The challenge today at 365 Cards was to include alpha stickers on your card (and at least one # sticker!). The card I made is for Norah's cousin who is turning ONE this weekend. I could've gone with the blue for boys color choice but.....

I just love orange and lime together- so citrus! I used American Crafts Autumn card stock for the card and tags (which I cut with an EK Success punch). The patterned paper is My Mind's Eye. I found the greatest little sticker books with alpha stickers and a few phrases and stuff at the dollar store. There were a couple of different themes- these stickers were in the summer themed book.

It is another hot one here today so, hopefully we'll get to hit the beach for awhile- it is Norah's favorite place!
We are so lucky to live on the coast where a beach is only minutes away :)
