HIPPO - Hurrayyyy!!!!

Hello everyone! Today I am bringing you a card I made using Birthday Hippo from 2 CUTE INK!!!!

I wanted to keep the layout fairly simple because this is a totally FUN card......I used an Action Wobble spring behind the hippo....I wish I could show you a video of it, but its so cool!!!!

So, here is the card:

And here is the Wobble spring:

And here.....is the hippo wobbling about.....I'm so glad my camera captured the movement, although it is more fun in real life!!! LOL

2 Cute Ink NEW RELEASE - Soccer Birdie

GOOD MORNING everyone!!!! I am here to showcase a NEW digi from 2 Cute Ink...this is SOCCER BIRDIE...isn't she cute???  I just love her!!!! 

The DP is digi paper from.....who knows where! LOL  I cut out some of the soccer balls and popped them out so they are 3D (although you can't see them because I didn't take a side profile pic...oops!) AND I popped out the soccer ball that she is kicking!  I wanted to add a little girlie touch so I used some pink rain drops and a pink bow in her hair....even though the stickles smudged (GRRR!)  Kind of a simple layout but I wanted to showcase the soccer paper!!  Would be a great card for a little girl who loves soccer!!!

Cute Becca Boo

 Hi everyone! I hope you are having a GREAT Sunday!  We got blasted with another Spring storm, must be almost 2 feet of snow out there....ugh!!! I REALLY want to put away the snow shovel & boots....so tired of winter!!!!  I made this card HOPING it would stir on Spring...but no such luck! MAYBE now that I post it, Spring will come!!!!

This is Becca Boo, from The Stamping Chef.  I coloured her with Copics and used chalk for the grass & clouds.  The papers were just in my scraps bin and the flowers I've had forever!!!  This is a side step card - one of my favourite layouts right now!!!! 

I am entering her into the Girlie Girl challenge over at the Stamping Chef challenge blog!
I am also entering this into the Lacy Sunshine challenge which is Spring Fever!  Scrappy Frogs challenge is also having a Think Spring challenge!!

 Wish me luck!!!
