Play Day Take 2


Yay, I got to play today!!
I was so happy to be able to hang out in my pyjamas til after 2pm {woo hoo!!} while watching Thoroughly Modern Milly and the Princess Bride and stamping away :) Pure Joy!
I finally inked up the Hero Arts Cupcake set I got off ebay. I love this set, it's so cute! I stamped the cupcake onto the spotty Chatterbox paper and paper pieced it onto the red card that I had stamped with the same cupcake stamp. Attached it to a nestabilities rectangle {love them!} punched holes with my SU Horizontal Slot punch and attached American Crafts ribbon (which didn't turn out too good in the pic, sorry!) The Cute saying came along with the cupcake from Hero Arts.



I then made this one with the same cupcake imaged stamped onto pink card and coloured with my SU inks and blender pens. I mounted the "negative" from the Nestabilities rectangle (using the scallop negative- the bit left after cutting/punching out- is one of my sis Felicity's favourite tricks!) over the pink piece and attached it to the card. So sweet. I love the big Kaiser jewel for the cherry on top. I also coloured around the frosting in places with my spica clear glitter pen so it shimmers in the light. I want to eat it right now!

Then the 3rd card I made is a remake of Yvette's card with a few little changes, and is for Will's sister's 21st birthday party tonight. We asked what she wanted for her birthday and she said "you can make me a card cos they're really nice". Cool! Thanks for the praise! I think we should prob get her a present too though ;)
I had to use the Bella's cos they're so funky and young and Will's sis loves shopping! I hope she likes it. I love the Coco Chanel saying, I almost didn't buy it but at the last minute I added it to the order and it's one of the stamps I have used the most! So funny when that happens.

I'm now off to do a little scrappin...

Hope you had a good Saturday!

I wish I could have come over for a creative session. Today was the first day I've left the house in 10 days! Apart from my dr appt. Actually I have both those movies so I could put them on and pretend I'm being creative with you. :) The cupcake is so cute. Love what you did with the blender pen and glitter. :)

Have you seen this blog? http://www.alisatilsner.com/blog/ - I just saw her ad in SM.

Oh look! You've had a visitor from the US!

I love the negative punch result more than the scalloped bit sometimes! LOVE what you did with the negative bit. Thats my fav cupcake one - it really frames it and looks so cool!

We'll have to get together for a play day and you can show me how your new stamps work - hee hee! ;-)
