Bunny moon

I had a huge urge today to make a baby card - I don't know why - and NO I am not pregnant, lol!  So here it is...

I'm really pleased how this one turned out - it's not often that I come up with an idea and it actually turns out nearly exactly as I thought it would!  This cutie pie is by Lili of the Valley and is called Bunny Moon and I coloured him in with my Prismacolor pencils.  I also used papers from the Petal Fresh pad and the sentiment is from the Handwritten Phrases set.  I topped it off simply with a little die cut heart and some Doodlebug sequins (my new favourite embellishments!).

I'm off now - got to do some decorating today.  I've managed to keep myself busy enough to have wasted my first week off work to avoid it!  But it's gotta get done so I'm really committed to make a start on it today!  I hope you have a lovely day planned too and I'll be back tomorrow with sweet sneaks of the new SugarPea Designs release - see you then!

Sushi love!

I made a birthday card for a male friend who loves sushi so I just had to use the super cool Rice Rice Baby by SugarPea Designs...

I will never get bored of creating with this cute guy and the matching sentiments in this set are so brilliant!  Take a look at the whole set...

I used my Embossalicious embossing folder and Doodlebug papers.  I also used my CC Designs woodgrain stamp on kraft cardstock for a bit of contrast.  I topped it off with some Dew Drops - I have trillions of these so I'm hoping they will become trendy again so I can use them up!

I hope you enjoy the rest of your Saturday and I'll be back tomorrow with my Lili of the Valley DT post - see you then!

You rock dude!

There is more gorgeous inspiration over at the La-La Land Crafts blog this week and the team have been inspired by a fun photo!  Here is my DT make using Lil' Rocker Luka and the Random Flags Banner die...

I just love this little dude - he is so cool!  I matched him up with Doodlebug papers, used my Crafts Concepts star embossing folder and Memory Box alphas die.
