Ninja Turtle Birthday Card

We were invited to a Ninja Turtle Birthday Party.  I have seen tons of pouch art Ninja Turtles all over Pinterest so I decided to create my own version.  I used all Stampin up punches.  Circle punch and Oval punch for the head.  Fancy label punch for the mask (i cut off the sides with the oval punch).  For the eyes I used the owl Punch.  I used the oval punch for the smile (just double punched.  For the mouth I used a circle punch and for the tongue 1/2 of a heart punch.  I mounted it onto white squares matted with black.  The card base is a traditional easel card.

Wedding Card

I have seen these cute wedding dress cards all over Pinterest.  I could not find one that had a template that I could download on my apple so I created my own version. 

Directions:

The card base is 6 1/2" x 10" scored on the 10" side at 3 1/2" and 8".

The insert (cream) is 4 1/4" x 6 1/4"

The inside pocket ($5 was just to see if it fit ha ha) 3 1/4" x 2 1/4" 

For the Tux:

The shirt is made from Stampin up tab punch.  I just cut the corners to make the shirt.

The Tux is 1/2 of a 4" square cut in half to make a triangle and a slit cut in the middle and sides folded back. 

I used the boho punch to cut 5 small flowers attached with a brad and fluffed. 

For the dress:

I took a piece of printer paper and hand drew a dress.  I picked the side I liked best, folded the paper in half and cut out only the best side.  This gave me a mirror cut out on each side.  When I was happy with the template I cut out the dress on card stock.  

I embossed the dress (don't know the name of the folder)

Then I punched two small holes, threaded tulle and tied in a bow.  I added 3 mini pearls to the top of the dress  

As you can see the dress overlaps the black (Tux area) and is slightly longer than the card base.  The shirt sits up slightly over the top of the card.  

This card fit perfectly into an 5 1/4" x 7 1/4" envelope.

Prayer Journals

I was watching you tube and came across a wonderful teacher.  She did a tutorial on a multi purpose book. It could be used for so many different things.  I made mine into prayer journals.  For a great tutorial on how to make the base check out Elaine's video here: Paper craft Button

For my books I used paper that was not my favorite design.  I stamped Life is Fragile stamp and layered it onto card stock and attached to the belly band.  I added simple punched flowers to give it a little color and the inside of the good with the pick flower on top has pink pages inside.  They came together very fast and would make a great gift.

Baby Shower Banner

I made this banner for my Niece Sophie's baby shower.  I wanted to keep it simple so she could hang it in the babies room after the shower.  I  used the cricut to cut the letters (storybook) Nestability dies to cut the layers, and boho punch to make the flowers.

Bunny Bucket

At My Friend Joyce's monthly Stampin up class we made some really cute bunny boxes.  I came home and made my own version.  I used a small white bucket (3/1.00 at dollar tree) for my body and added a few additional punches and facial features.  I plan to give these to all of my co-workers and a few of my favorite accounts.  I filled the inside with green grass and Hershey Kisses.  On the back I added a cotton ball for a tail.  Punches used; ornament, small circle, sm heart, and eyes (owl punch) medium oval and small oval.   I added some black details, and white to the eyes.  I sponged pink to give some dimension.
Happy  Easter.

Shane's Toad-aly Cool Valentines

This project was entered in the P3 February Challenge you should check out all the great projects.

For this project we used; Large Circle Punch (Stomach), Med Oval Punch (tummy, legs, arms), Small Circle Punch (eyes), Small Heart Punch, and Three flower punch (feet).  We glued on Google eyes and used the Tab punch to hold the sucker.  I cut the sign from my cricut and arrows were an arrow punch.  They came out really cute.  The Happy Valentines day is Stampin up Teeny Tiny Stamps.

Shane wanted to make his valentines more "boyish"  This is what we came up with.
We made a matching box for his valentines party.

At the top of his decorated shoe box we put a sign that says drop Valentines Here.  Just in case
they didn't see the opening there are tons of arrows pointing the way.

Here is how they came out.  He was able to make them all by himself... even the smiles.... 

I found inspiration for the frog from Split Coast Stampers Gallery.  Click on this link Frog Inspiration

Scrap Challenge Project #6

Kissing Valentine Fish Card

I went to a 3rd Wednesday Card shoppe in December and was given a really cute Valentine Fish Card. I recreated the card using scraps. I punched the fish using stampin up ornament punch out of textured card stock. I cut the fins, tail, and lips from small heart punch. I stamped the green plants from Asian Artistry stamp set Stampin Up and inked the edges blue to look like water. I stamped Happy Valentines day from Teeny Tiny Wishes stampin up and punched with the Window punch. Thanks Chrisitian and Kiki for making this card with me...

Owl Punch Thank You Card

I made these cards using my new Tim Holtz tree embossing folder. The base of the card is Green Card stock. I used Brown for the tree, punched a hole in the tree trunk, and inserted the punched owl. I used the stamp Thanks a Bunch-Best of the Bunch from Stampin UP and punched with the oval punch and scalloped Oval. It was super fast and easy and I love the way it turned out.
