Spellbinders Challenge

No I'm not brewing up any spells but over at Spellbinders....http://spellbinderspaperarts.com/blog/splitcoaststamperscom-contest-update/ they have a great challenge going on where you can brew up your very own master piece! All you have to do is make something creative with their die cuts. They have 3 categories...Cards, Scrapbook Layout, & an Altered Item. I came up with this for the card category and the altered items. I used the scalloped die cuts to make my flowers and the background of the card with the "fancy square" (as I call it.) I also used the Spellbinders dies to make the tags that are in the little case I made. This was a really fun challenge and if you are up for it pop on over to get all the details!

A Little Birdie....

Have you ever seen something and just had to have it? I'm like that with shoes, chocolate, craft stuff and paper! I love paper! I love all the things you can do with it and create with it. And I love love love this little birdie! I found this really cute paper and just had to make my own little birdie. The paper is "Happy Bird-day" from 3 bugs in a rug. Very cute, eh! I made this little box but I'm not finished yet...it still needs something...hmmmm....
I also wanted to get a head start on my Easter cards and thought this was kind of a cute idea. I was playing around with my spellbinders and came up with an egg. I think these cards are just too cute! The stamp I used for the sentiment is from SU's "Loads of Love Assecories".






Well thanks for stopping by and taking a look!
