Just Bee' Cause & FREEBIE

 Happy Thursday HH fans!

I'm quite late getting my card up today....life & work happen lol!

I went on a little craft shopping trip with my partner in crime this past Saturday.  We popped by an awesome crafty garage sale & then went to one of our local scrapbook stores.  I have been itching for some new paper pads.  Well I thought I hit the jackpot when I seen the new Echo Park 6 x 6 pad called Happy as can Bee.  I totally love it!  We have a few stamps in our collection that I have been anxious to colour & make some cards with & this paper is perfect for them.

For today's card I'm using our Birds and Bees Frame.  This would also make a wonderful shaker card, I think I will try that next time.

I used a Honeycomb Whimsy die from my stash that I have had for years..still new in package.  Love it & it cuts out beautifully.

Just to say Thank You & a FREEBIE!

 Happy Tuesday HH fans!

Today I'm sharing our adorable image called Cat Trio.  A week or so ago my Dad asked me to make him a card for his vet.  First off I can't believe my almost 81 year old Dad even remembered I made cards & secondly that he wanted to send someone a card.  My Dad grew up farming and animals are super important to him.  Dad is still living on his own, well I say living on his own I mean no other humans just him & his 4 cats.  Yep he has the Momma & her 3 babies.  Momma cat aka Heidi is 17 years old & her 3 (not so babies) are 16 years old.  My Dad loves his cats, I think more than his kids lol.  I was determined to have this card ready for him when he came over for Father's Day...and here it is.  Oh I forgot to mention only 3 cats need to visit the Vet...good thing because I didn't have an image with 4 cats lol.

I finally got my die cutter working...that took a minute, more like a couple of weeks lol.  I created the Thank You with an SVG file from Miss Kate's Cuttables, I love her stuff.  The only paper I had on hand was a super duper old pad from We R called Furever Friends.  I really need to add some cat & dog paper to my stash.

This cutie is back on the website & FREEBIE offer!

 Happy Tuesday HH fans!

Today I'm thrilled to be re-releasing our adorable image by Dina Gerner called Puppy Friends.

I was playing around with a "new to me" colour combo for this cutie.  I always feel that Copic doesn't have enough purple in their colour selection.  So I went browsing on Pinterest.  Let me tell you I was on there for what seemed like hours.  You just see so many amazing creations by others, I love it.  I came across a gal who had used the combo I chose below of BV08, BV11 & V17.  I never in my wildest dreams would have thought of that combo.  So I gave a whirl & I loved it....so that goes into my special book I keep track of my fav combos in.

The past two posts have offered a little freebie.  I thought I would keep the trend going with today's post...be sure to check it out!

Take time to send a hug & FREEBIE!

 Happy Saturday HH fans!

I wanted to finish the week off with some hugs & kisses.  I LOVE the ocean.  Well let me rephrase that a bit....I LOVE to look at the ocean and listen to it....I don't like to go in it.  I'm terrified of something touching my feet...sad I know but it's the truth.  I get so much peace just watching it.  I wished I lived closer to it, but sadly I don't.  We do have some beautiful lakes here in Ontario and those surely bring me joy as well, they just aren't the ocean.

For my last card this week I chose Mer-Cat.  This is one of our older images but I think she is just super cute.  Her little wave helped me pick the sentiment.   I used Get Well Wishes Script but I didn't use the entire sentiment, I just used the top half.  

This is my first time colouring a mermaid so go easy on me.  I need a little more practice for sure.

Be sure to check out our little FREEBIE!!

So I have a little surprise for my blog readers today, wanna know what it is?  Read below....

Born to Golf!

 Happy Tuesday HH fans!

I'm back today with a masculine card using our cool image called Golfer Rudy.

I think this guy is just so handsome & stylish, what do you think?

I couldn't find any golf related paper in my stacks of stash so I used some soccer paper.  I think it worked out pretty well.  I do that quite a bit...use paper for something it may not have been intended for.  Besides there are no rules when you are crafting, right!

I kept the front of the card generic with our Born To Golf sentiment.  I left the inside blank so I can add anything I like later.

How about some Ele fun today?!

 Happy Saturday HH fans!

Today I have another 2 card post for you all.  This is our adorable image called Ele-Fun.

I decided to give another go to the boy & girl version using this cutie.  I changed the layout a little for each of them.  Inside they both have the Happy Birthday Script sentiment, which by now you know I love lol.  I cut out the circles with a 1" & 3/4" punch and just off centered them a little.  When I cut out the blue patterned paper 3/4" circles the white core of the paper showed.  So I just went around the outside of each cut out with a blue marker to get rid of the white around the outside.  

I added a little sparkle to both the hat & the candle with some Stickles.
