Baby Elephant Card

Welcome to my last post for Squigglefly. What a strange feeling. My 6 month design team term in coming to an end. For my last DT card I used my handy-dandy discount and bought a few images I’ve had my eye on. I used one of Crissy Armstrong’s images here. Her images are the reason I applied for the position in the first place so I thought it was fitting. The challenge is to use yellow on your project.

I just noticed this morning that my site is acting up. I’m doing my best to get it to stop malfunctioning. It’s been one of those weeks. I’ll be back tomorrow with my Practical Scrappers card.

Happy Valentine’s Day! In the normal Lisa fashion I waited until the last minute and then decided to whip up a few batches of cookies and these cute little gift tags. It is also my BIL Austin’s Birthday. I sadly made him the worst cake ever as well- note to self: making the cake layers the night before is a bad idea. Not sealing them up air tight also a bad idea. You will get comments like, “I plead the 5th” when asked how it tastes and “It’s like a toast cake.” LOL, at least my cookies are good and my in laws now have a “remember when” story about me to tell for years to come.

The monkey stamp is a digi from Bugaboo (I added the 30 on the cake), the Cupid Bear is from Whipper Snapper, the elephant is a Dustin Pike digi image, and the squirrel is a Greeting Farm image. I used a lot of cuttlebug, my cricut, did some sewing, and inked lots of edges. That’s about it. I’ll be back tomorrow with my Squigglefly DT card.

Project #8

I know, I come up with the best titles. I don’t know how anyone could resist after seeing such an awesome title. :)

My little family and I have a lot of people to thank these days. Between watching our kids, working on our house, and letting us stay at their house while it get fixed- I have some thank you catch up work to do. I started on this card last night while my husband did side job work and I waited for the dryer. I then had a hard time going to bed because I couldn’t stop thinking about it. I turned out almost as well as I imagined it…almost.

I used Elmer the Elephant. He’s one of my favorite High Hopes Stamps. Very versatile. The stripe paper is from Daisy D’s and the green circle paper is from Scenic Route. I used my fancy new (I bought it before starting my project challenge) Fiskars Effervescence border punch (love it), my Swiss Dots cuttlebug folder, and my mom’s Mickey Font Cartridge (shhh, I’ve had it for months). Thanks mom!

I’m entering this card into the following challenges-

High Hopes- spacey colors (purple, blue, green)

Stamp with Fun- sketch

AIFactory Challenge- 5 embellishments total (I used 5 on the front, no one else shows the inside of their cards so I think that’s what they mean…I hope)

And my own personal challenge- don’t use any white
