Shannons Thank yous

Our Granddaughter turned 1 year old ! Her party was Sat, and since her Mommy had a "monkey" theme, I knew that Fox and Friends from the mini was just what was needed. I made 34 of these little monkies today! I used Tall Tales designer series paper and of course my big shot with the movers and shapers die! It made cutting and folding a breeze,as I could cut up to 4 cards at one time, using the whisper white card stock. Truely a labor of Love!

I just love this chocolate bunny! He looks good enough to eat! This card is 3x6 and is mailable for the regular price and uses Stampin Up! 's open end enevelopes, small. I used barely banana 12x12 ( you get 4 cards from one sheet!!), the hugs notes stamped the dot dot stamp in so safron, wrapped brown satin ribbon around the card before adhering it to a 4.25 x 2.5 piece of chocolate chip cardstock. the designer paper is from the sweet pea paper pack, I stamped Happy Easter Well Scripted in chocolate chip on barely banana card stock and punched it out with the scalloped oval punch. It went together very easily, and I prepped for 20 tonight while helping hubby watch TV!! This is our make and take, as my hostess wanted an Easter themed party! Hubby noted that Brachs candy makes a chocolate bunny that looks very similar to this little fella! hmmmm .. Leave it to Ford to know all about candy!!

happy birthday Wendy!


Does this layout look familar? It is from Julie Davison, whimsical butterfly collection! I needed a birthday card quick and in a hurry... these flowers were just begging to be used... so I changed the original to suit what I needed! I just love that all of stampin ups colors co-ordinate so well together! If you'd like some of these wonderful felt flowers, to add a little something to your projects... we need to get them soon! They will be going away April 30th!
