Julia's Design for her birthday party

Yesterday was my youngest granddaughters 6th birthday!

Every year both of my granddaughters make a design as to how they want their birthday invitations to look like.

This year was no exception for Julia who was planning a foam party! They hired the foam machine from a company who set it up and then picked it up later. I will tell you more about the party later!

Here is the design that Julia gave me:

I always have to ask questions about colours and the design and then I have to come up with a card design that has to have approval from the designer!

Here is the design that I came up with and it was approved! I had her draw the guy's head onto a punched circle and then we added him to the "tub".

How do you think I did??

Tea Boutique Banner

Recently in one of our exclusive Demonstrator events we had a wonderful presentation by Kylie Henshaw, a demonstrator from England.

I loved her banner created using one of the Tea Boutique Envelopes and I have cased it here to share with you. I purchased the dowel rod at my local hardware store and cut it to the length I needed.

Thanks Kylie for such a great project idea!

Texture Chic Shells

Today I am sharing a card made using the Texture Chic Suite Collection. There are a number of elements in this collection that really caught my attention. The images in the stamp set, the amazing dies, beautiful Designer Series Paper and the Specialty Paper!

My card today is a 3X3 card base covered with a piece of DSP and them added elements using the dies.

The DSP has the most amazing colours and makes a great background for the seashells cut using the coordinating dies. I also stamped the edge of the matching envelope with the shell stamp image.
