A Birthday Feast

Hi there :)

I'm following up my Pizza card from last week with some more foody goodness over at the Seven Hills Crafts Blog today. I've used Lawn Fawns Pizza my Heart and Lets BBQ to make a fun generic birthday card that would be good for a guy :)

The 'A' shaped slice of pizza sparked this idea and because Lawn Fawn sets are so interchangeable, it was easy to find some images from Lets BBQ to play with too. The letters are Quinns ABC's ... they are a great size to work alongside the foody stamps :)

To jazz up the background I used a faux fabric embossing folder by Cuttlebug to make an imitation tablecloth... I love the pop of colour from all the images against the texture :)

Love n' Pizza

                   

Yay :) Thanks to the ladies, especially Diedre, over at CASology for choosing my card as a winner.

                                               

It's my first post on the shiny new blog at Seven Hills Crafts today and I've used some new stash too :)

The Pizza my Heart set from Lawn Fawn was just to cute to resist and I also knew just what I wanted to do to make that pizza box interactive too...

I used a craft knife and ruler to cut three sides so the box could open upwards and out pops a heart shaped pizza... not the conventional way to present them in a box but for the purpose of an interactive card this is fine :)

Here's a behind the scenes view to show how I attached the pizza to the back of the box lid and spaced the dimensional foam around the moving pieces :)

My daughter has claimed this to send to her boyfriend on Valentines day.... it's such a great set for the young and in love... ahhhh :)

        

I'm entering this into the Clean & Simple Valentines challenge over at The Paper Players blog and CASology where the challenge is OPEN... and that is just what the box does :)

A New Year, A New Name and a A New Challenge

Hi there and a Happy New Year to you.... I still think I'm in the time frame to say it ;) and what about the New Name and New challenge I hear you say??!! Well over the Christmas period Make the Day Special Stamp Store changed it's name to Seven Hills Crafts and relaunched yesterday with a brand new shiny website to go with it :)

Tara has done an amazing job and spent countless hours in front of a computer screen over the holidays to get the shop open again .... do pop by and have a browse and please be sure to sign up to the new store blog as well, you can find it here :)

Now to the new Challenge... it's our usual monthly challenge but we've got off to a later start this month and we have a colour theme for you...



I went with the middle palette and used the oh so cute set from Lil'inkers called So Prickly...

This set is adorable.... cacti with faces, arms and legs, how could it not be?!

I got it just before Christmas so couldn't resist getting it inky with a bit of masking and stamping :) I'm going to pop it into the Something New challenge over at Simon Says Stamp.

All the details for the colour challenge and the linky tool can be found here.... we hope you join us in our first challenge of 2016 ... hope to see you in the gallery :)

Thanks for stopping by
