You BOWL me over!

Ha! I make me laugh!. :) Have you seen the new Cottage Cutz In The Kitchen release yet? Oh be still my heart! I have a love for all things kitchen and a weird thing for mixing bowls. LOL Today's project with Scrapping Cottage Cottage Cutz dies includes the super cute new mixing bowl set. I LOVE these!!!

Of course I added foam tape for dimension -- because that's how I bowl, I mean roll! :) The background is a spellbinders die.




For my message I used the measuring spoons. These are so cute AND they come with mini stamps with measurements on them (which you can see I did not use in this sample). Still, they are stinkin' cute!


Hope you enjoyed my kitchen punny card this week. ;) This release is my all time fave. If you can't find something you like In The Kitchen, I don't know if we can still be friends. HAHA!! Have a crafty week, peeps!

Those big-mouthed little birdies

I LOVE how this card turned out! Everything about it is just perfect. The floral paper is from the Thrift Shop and the polka dot is Modern Homemaker, both by October Afternoon. In person the colors are so much more striking and vivid but you can see how well they go together. The message stamp was a gift from my friend, Karin. Isn't it cute! I stamped the image onto creamy colored cardstock using Stampin Up! Real Red ink, which matches perfectly to the pattern papers, then I used the Spellbinders Labels 21 and cut out my message. I stamped a second bird on the polka dot paper, then I cut it out and attached it over the original with foam tape -- I love that stuff, you know! -- to give it some fun dimension.


Using my cutie patootie Imaginisce hot glue gun, the pretty pink i-bond, I attached my handmade mini roses and handmade stick pin.


More dimensional profile view.


Thanks for looking today. I think this is one of my most favorite projects to date! I hope my friend will be pleased when this arrives in her mailbox. :)


Happy weekend everyone.
