PWCO Super Saturday!

Happy Saturday, everyone!

It's a three-fer here today, so enjoy!

#1:  Birthday Parade:

Image coloured with Copics - Glossy Accents & Stickles on balloons; Stickles on confetti!  Thought about adding *something* else to the card...but was having a brain fart & nothing was cooperating... so, it is what it is!

Supplies Used:

PWCO/RAM:  Birthday Parade

Echo Park Paper - A Walk in the Park:  'Blissful Days Border Sheet'

Copic Markers

Glossy Accents

Stickles - Stardust

#2 - Have a Hoot on your Birthday!

The owl & tree are pieced and popped up on dimensional adhesive.  The sentiment strip is PTI's Double-Ended Banner Die, with a sentiment from Wise Owls (which continues on to the interior of the card).  A bit of Smooch Accent Ink on the edges of the banner for some definition... and a touch of orange Copic to the beak & toes of the little owl!

Supplies Used:
PWCO/RAM:  Happy Owl-o-ween
Echo Park Paper - Life is Good:  'Floral Dress'
Echo Park Paper - A Walk in the Park:  'Pathway'
Echo Park Paper - A Walk in the Park:  'Treetops'
Smooch:  Molasses

#3 - Today is a Gift!

Image coloured with Copics; Smooch on girl's shoes & bracelet - Glossy Accents & Stickles on bouquet.

Supplies Used:
PWCO/RAM:  My Valentine
Echo Park Paper - Life is Good:  'Happy Border Sheet'
Smooch: Molasses

Copics
Glossy Accents
Stickles - Stardust
It took forever to colour/piece these three images, so I really wanted them to be the main focus of the cards... Love Echo Park Paper's Border sheets - they make quick work of backgrounds!!
Thanks for stopping in!

PWCO Free For All!

Yay - I tried my hand at hair clips; turned out pretty good for a first go, I think - at least, The Princess says so! 

Looking for fun, crafty ideas (that are fairly simple to mass produce - and that are fairly inexpensive!) for the goodie bags at The Royal Princess' 6th Birthday Ball - I know, I know... not until the end of October... but these things require extensive testing prior to being tossed to the wolves! (*ahem... attending guests from nearby kingdoms...ahem*)  <--(lol)  Lil's been sporting these clips around town the last few days, and so far, they've stood up to storms and saliva, and have garnered quite a few compliments.  (YES!)

Oh yeah... and PWCO needs to fit in here somewhere, too - check the card out; I made this little set for Ms. Em herself.  Super proud of her these days - she's been back in school for almost 3 weeks now... Apparently the littles are supposed to be at Reading Level 16 by the end of first grade.  The first books she brought home from school are at Level 15.... hence the bookmark (thanks, PTI, for creating this kick-ass die - and super yummy felt!!).  Annnywayy... right.  The card.  It's got my most favourite PWCO character on it... Zoie the Zebra!  So easy to add glitz with her; just heat emboss her with black glitter ep - and taaaa daaaa- super sparkly zebra, with very minimal effort!  Add a touch of Copic to liven things up a bit here and there.

All righty... I've got a boatload of packing to do... I'm scheduling this post for the AM, since Em & I will be hitting the road at noon, on our way to London, Ontario - sooo excited for Kraftin Kimmie Day!!!!  (Anyone else going?)

Laters!
Steph

Happy Birthday to Me!

Hey y'all!

It's the big 2-5 today... no plans, though.  The Mr's out swathing, the big monster's in school, and the little monster is at home giving me tons of cuddles as per usual (and that's always the best part!)...

I've got a Free For All post up over at PWCO today...make sure you swing by & check it out!

Also, since it's my party, I thought I better get a goodie bag together - check back later today for that post!

Laters,
Steph!
