Here’s a Thank You card I made for my husband’s sister and her husband.  They sent us an adorable stuffed cat that’s just the cat’s M-E-O-W!  Just scrolled down some and you’ll see my assistant (Alice, the cat) with the stuffed cat.    Alice is not sure if she likes the stuffed cat.

Pizza Boxes

 DSCN1996

You are looking at a Mini Pizza box that is oh so simple to make.  {CLICK HERE} for the link to the short and easy-to-follow tutorial on Splitcoaststampers.  Verve stamps has a Mini Pizza box challenge going on too.  Just make and post your pizza box before 10pm MT 11/30/2009.

DSCN1995Here’s the 4 1/4 x 4 1/4" square card I made to go with the Mini Pizza box.  It’s essentially replicating the box top design.  The SU! Christmas theme DSP I used on the two projects is retired and just about gone.  The card base is Always Artichoke and card mats were created using Sage Shadow, Whisper White, and Always Artichoke.  Dasher (116816 – $8.95 a great bargain for such a beautiful and versatile stamp!) was stamped using Always Artichoke ink.  The little red rhinestone addition turned Dasher in to a Rudolph. :-)   The SU! grosgrain Cranbery ribbon is from ages ago.

Pictured above is the first Mini Pizza box I made and was not totally thrilled with…  No particular reason as to why.  The box was made using retired SU! In-Colors Tangerine Tango, Kiwi Kiss, and complimentary retired DSP.  I pulled out my SU! sizzlets dies (see SU! IB&C pgs. 196-197) to create the "thank you" sentiment (Many Thanks – 115972), leaf pattern (Little Leaves – 114511), and flower (Birds & Blooms – 113485).

Stamp on and with Aloha!

How lovely

VSNOV09B - Sketch Challenge

O Christmas Tree, how lovely are thy branches. This card is based on Verve’s sketch challenge VSNOV09B.  I just went back to re-read the sketch challenge rules and the theme is about being ‘Thankful’.  Ooops.  Pure Christmas theme…  LOL.
