Hello Kitty butterfly garden gate album

I picked up a couple of dies from the store over the weekend. The newest release from Sizzix arrived last week and there were a bunch of them that I wanted to get my hands on. Lol! When I first saw this fence die, I knew I had to have it. It is designed by Eileen Hull. You can make it into a mini album or a card like I did in the photo.

I used some older dies to make this card. I used the Hello Kitty butterfly sizzlit die since I had some extras already cut out. I have a hard time throwing the extras away. The grass is a deco strip die that is also no longer available. The flowers came off of a Hello Kitty deco strip die. I can't remember the name of the die. The clouds are punches from Fiskars.
Thanks for stopping by today and I appreciate all your comments too!!!

You're so sweet!

Hi and hope you're having a great Sunday! I've been wanting to use this jar die and stamp set by Stephanie Barnard but never got around to it until today. I decided to make a shaker card since I haven't made one in awhile. Believe it or not, the strawberry stamp is by Hero Arts. It was on one of the teaching kits and I thought it would be cute to put it in the jar.

 The white background is embossed with a Tim Holtz embossing folder. I used a banner framelit die to cut out the sentiment stamp.

Sorry I haven't been around much but I am still dealing with my heart problems. My doctor keeps increasing the dosage on the meds that I take and now the heart part is fine but I'm feeling miserable because I am so dizzy and can't see straight. It's scary to be driving but I have to drive.
Thanks for stopping by today!!!

Busy week update

Hi, I've been quite busy with Cheri in town since last week and this week. I thought I'd share some photos here. We did a couple make & takes last weekend and we have a couple this weekend. I posted our make & takes on my sidebar. Hope to see you at one of the Ben Franklin Craft stores this weekend!

 I had Cliff take a photo of us before I forget.

Here's Cheri trying to show me how to make the flowers using the new Susan Tierney flower dies that just arrived at the stores. If you love making flowers, these are the perfect dies for that.

Here's the card that we made last week Saturday at J's. This is one of the new Doodlebug dies and stamps called "sweet treats".

And the brand new Sizzix Big Shot machine that should be arriving at the stores this month!
I'll be posting the rest of the make & takes later. Have a great day and thanks for stopping by!!!
