Cute cats and dogs

In the March Frantic Stamper release are two die sets one that is a cute cat in a box and the other that is a cute dog in a basket.  Both die sets come with the cat and dog separately so they can sit in the box or the basket.  I decided to just use the cat and the dog and put them together on the same card.  In the background is the paw stencil, which is great to add pattern to plain card stock.  I did some fussy cutting with the ears mouths and noses but the eyes are separate little dies in these sets.

I think they are super cute and the sentiment very appropriate.  Thats it for March but do pop to the Frantic Stamper store to see the March Release and lots of other fantastic products.  Also check out the Frantic Stamper facebook page for lots of other inspiration from the amazing Design Team.

Thanks for dropping by today,

This little piggy!!!

This little piggy is from the March Frantic Stamper release.  He comes completes with the little fence which I have ut twice and placed behind him.  I have also cut a grassy hill from the grass edger, an older Frantic Stamper die, to create a little background.  I then cut the little pig from pink cards rick and an extra head from a darker pink and legs from black so I could fussy cut them and adhere to give him some life.  I just love his little face and how his head is slightly turned.  Certainly a very cute little piggy.

Bye for now

Silhouettes a plenty.

In the March Frantic Stamper release are 2 sets of silhouettes.  One is cats and the other dogs.  Each set contains several silhouettes of different breeds and poses.  The uses for these are endless.  For my cards I decided to cut the chosen silhouette in black and used the Spring Swag Builder from last months release to add colour.  Both card designs are similar and could easily become a little set.  For quick and easy cards with the bonus of using scraps these dies will be a great addition to your card making supplies.  I did use a scalloped rectangle to cut the background paper but they would work just as well with a straight cut.  This design would also be wonderful for small notecards.

Great aren't they?

Come back soon

Its March already

Wow!! March already.  The months are flying past and with each month comes a Frantic Stamper release.  March is all about our animal companions.  We have cats, dogs, fish and birds and some others in between.  One of the dies is called feathered friends and has an opened bird cage and 2 birds.  I'm glad the cage is open as I really could never have a caged bird, I really think wings should be used to soar.  Anyway I took the parrot and die cut it three times in bright colours then fussy cut the beaks and eye feathers to make these three bright and cheeky looking fellows.

The card design is pretty simple but represents the birds sitting on a  branch in a tropical garden.  A bright and fun card.

Thanks for popping in today
