Why do FOOLS fall in love...

I'm so excited about this week's H2H Challenge!!!

NO FOOLING

While I started with the intention to do an April Fool's project, I came across these photos of my husband and I messing around a few years ago and I immediately knew I need to explain WHY I fell in love with this fool!

Thanks for stopping by...

Please take some time to head over to the H2H Blog and check out the other Design Team Members and their projects!

You have 'till the end of April to link up your CTMH project!

Totally Turtle Birthday Cake...

I hope everyone had a WONDERFUL weekend!!! We went to a Birthday Party where these little gift boxes were a HIT!

It's my turn to post over on the Craftin' Desert Divas Blog...what better stamp set to use for this than Totally Turtle for this one...

-----------------------------------------

Each box could've been decorated sooooo much more but this was for an 8-yr old so I didn't want to put too much effort in something that would probably wind up torn up to get the gum, candy and gift card inside...

------------------------------------

Here's a closeup of the cute little turtle...the sentiment actually says "Happy belated Birthday" but I masked the "belated" out...LOVE that about clear stamps...makes it sooo easy to customize!

Here's a look at the stamp set...

Thanks for stopping by!!! Don't forget to go check out the CDD Blog to see what the other girls have been up to!

Best Wishes - In the Garden with SOUS...

It's my turn to post over at Stuck on U Sketches for this week's Die-Cut Challenge - In The Garden...

I love the peep window of the card on the left...and I added some piercings in the corner that I think add a little something extra! The centers to the flowers are clear buttons adhered to some B&T.

The card on the right is pretty simple but the Circle Irresistibles add some dimension! And...I love the pops of Smoothie Ink on the flowers!!!

Go check it out on the SOUS Blog and link up your In the Garden Die-Cut Project!

Here's my project using the NEWLY released, Hunny Bunny stamp set...

------------------------------------

I wanted to keep the bunny pretty mellow in color...I cut his image (using the FREE SVG files you get from the CDD FB GALLERY) from a large photo mat so I could pop-dot the frame and stamp the bunny on the bottom layer of the layout...
