March Birthday Wishes

 Hello friends,

I have many birthdays to celebrate in March so I thought I would share one of the cards I made today.

This one is for my friend whose favorite color is red.  I used lots of red along with flowers candles and cupcakes - you can see a complete list of the products I used linked below.  All the dies used on this card are from Karen Burniston.


When the card is opened, the Happy Birthday pops up, I used the Flip Frame to that.

Thanks for stopping by today, see you again soon,

Wild About You

 Hello friends,

I have a fun project to share with you today, it is called a Slide Card and I have to tell you that it is not my original idea.  It has been on YouTube for a while now and I was inspired by Angelica Turner who designs for Elizabeth Craft Designs.  When I first saw these dies from Eliabeth Craft Designs - designed by Joset, I knew I had to have them.  I got the entire collection, who wouldn't??

This is a large card, 7" X 9", but you could make it smaller.  It does fold completely flat so all you need is a large envelope to mail it.  I had lots of fun making this and I look forward to making some cards with the rest of the collection.


You can find instructions on YouTube by typing in "Slide Card"

Happy Easter Wishes

 Hello Friends,

Well it looks like Spring is about to be sprung.  March 20 is the official start of Spring (and my son's birthday).  Time to start thinking about Easter.  I made this adorable little pop up chick card using the new Animal Add Ons 5 from Karen Burniston as well as some other fun dies from Karen to create it.  You can see all the products I used listed below.

Be Creative

 Hello friends,

I'm here today to share a unique card I made using the new Karen Burniston  Tea & Coffee die along with two of the new borders.  I used some older stamps from my stash and just enjoyed the card making process.  I have linked Karen's instruction video below so you can see how I assembled the card.


I love how the spoon moves up as the card opens.  You will find links to all the products I used below.

Designer Challenge - Bunny Ears

 It's Designer Challenge time again and this month our challenge is "Bunny Ears".  I have a card today that was more than one challenge.  My friend, Jan, and I challenge each other on a regular basis to make something special and that we have not made before.  I call it the Jandy Challenge - combining our names. Jan found a Love Pop card for us to make.  It is called a nesting card and I will post a photo of the LP card at the end. 

Here is my Bunny Ears Nesting Card.

Each section slides out from under the previous one.  It took me some time to get all the measurements and I had to make it up as I went along so sorry to tell you there is no tutorial for this one.  All the products I used are linked below.


Below are some photos of each section so you can see the details.







Here is shot of the carrot patch so you can see the details -


So happy you could stop by, have a creative day,

Things are going "swimmingly" -

 Hello Friends - today I have a fun card to share with you.  I asked Karen Burniston to design some dies that go with the cute little animals that we already have.  I wanted some swim floaties and snorkel equipment and she has come through with flying colors. The new Tiny Accessories 4 has all the things I asked for.  So Happy!!

I created a swimming pool using the double floating floor from the House and Fence die set and then added the pool edges by cutting a rectangle that fit.  I have linked one of my previous videos below to show you how to make a double floating floor.  I just love all the animals in the pool with their new toys.  I created a diving board using the Small Scenes Bam Box.
