A Bearthday!!

Love these bears from Avery Elle, the simplicity in the illustration makes them easy to 

colour and I tried to get a few different bears amongst them...

If you pull on the tab, one of the bears raises a sign to complete the greeting!!

I used the double slider die from MFT to make the pull tab mechanism and I have a few

more details and photos over on the Seven Hills crafts blog here, but this is basically 

what it looks like before adding the bears and frame on top of the pull tab....

Thanks for stopping by :)

Tumble, Flip and Celebrate

I hope you're feeling in an energetic mood because I've got a couple of cards that

 feature tumbling, flipping and stretching!!!!

I just love these illustrations from Kamo for Waffleflower... I managed to fit five of the 

girls on one card and used simple colour blocking to highlight them

I found a suitable stamp in another Waffleflower set to make a ribbon for this girl to twirl

whilst jumping through the air

There are three lads in the set too so they had to have their own card....

perfect for any young budding male gymnast

I went with circle backgrounds this time and found a sentiment from other stamps and dies.

I love the expression on the face of the boy balancing on one arm 😄

Coffee for Mum

I had to revisit this fab stamp set from Concord & 9th.... it's perfect for a 

Mother's Day card especially for my Mum :)

I love the look of the harsh lines of watercolour layers, I'm just not so good at 

being patient and waiting for the paint to dry so I can achieve it!! 

Well I tried my hardest this time and sat on my hands.... I'm pretty pleased with the result.

Love the hand-drawn lines from Lil Inkers to make a checked tablecloth and we seem to have a 

very clever Barista that has written 'For You' with the steamed milk!! 😃

Baby Box

I've finally got round to using the Mini Pop Up Box die from Lawn Fawn, it makes 

such a cute card and what better occasion to use it for than the arrival of a cute baby...

I used MFT's baby clothes die to cut a trio of garments and the celebration balloons 

from Mama Elephant to add a bit of height to the arrangement.... 

here's a photo of the opened card..

I made a couple of nappies using the bottom and sleeves of the onsie in the die set, 

I have more details and photos on the Seven Hills Crafts blog here to show you.

I kept the front of the card simple, using a sentiment from MFT and a twine wrap to help keep the card closed. The cute star charm is from the pop up box die.... the perfect finishing touch.

Moon and Back!

I was asked to make a space themed project with this sentiment and luckily I still have 

an old discontinued MFT set containing the phrase....love when I can mix old with new 😉

I tried my Distress Oxides to make a galaxy, first time doing a whole background with

them and I have to say I love the muted effect and chalky texture. The stars are distress paint 

which has been watered down very slightly and flicked on using an old toothbrush.
