THINKING OF MY BROTHER

As I was flicking through the January to June Mini Catalogue, several times, I knew that I needed to have the DO THE IMPOSSIBLE STAMP SET.

The reason is because swimming, riding and running are the three elements of an event my younger brother has competed in … the Busselton Ironman.

Our plans were to go to Busselton, for the event, at the end of last year … for him to compete, for us to scatter mum’s ashes in her home town of Harvey and to visit the wineries and breweries of the Margaret River region. It would have been a great trip.

Unfortunately, Jason was advised by his physio and doctor to give it a miss in 2019 … so this card is designed to inspire him to keep this goal alive!

I hope he likes it!

Thanks for dropping by … happy stamping.

TIMELESS TULIPS EASTER TREAT BOX

Something different today … a very simple treat box to hold a Kit Kat Bunny for Easter.

The TIMELESS TULIPS BUNDLE coordinates with the PLEASED AS PUNCH DSP from the Coordination Product Release.

The Timeless Tulips Photopolymer Stamp set has seven sentiments for seven different occasions, ranging from get well soon, Happy Mother’s Day through to happy birthday.

Because I found the Kit Kat Easter themed chocolate, I decided to use the Easter sentiment from the stamp set.

This sentiment is perfect for those of you in the Northern Hemisphere because it reads “Happy Easter, Happy Spring happy, happy everything” … and south of the equator, we will hopefully be enjoying the cooler weather of Autumn at Easter.

“Happy Easter, Happy Fall happy times for you all”. That would work if only we referred to Autumn as Fall … oh, well.

I may make treats for Easter using a “For You” sentiment instead, but I hope you like this project.

I used a piece of Granny Apple Green card stock cut to 6.25″ x 7″ and scored it at: 2,3,5 and 6 on the shorter side and at 5″ and also at 6″ in two panels on the longer side. There are three panels to cut away.

This super simple template won’t upload at the moment … please contact me and I will send it through to you.

Thanks for stopping by … happy stamping.

MEERKATS … SO CUTE!

The last time I saw meerkats was at the Berlin zoo … just a few days before attending the Stampin’ Up! ® On Stage Live in Dortmund last November.

There were only a few out of their burrows, keeping watch, because it was so cold.

Then at On Stage, when we received the new catalogue and Sale-a-bration brochure, there they were … a fun cling stamp set with happy little meerkats … THE GANG’S ALL MEER. I knew then that this was on the list to earn.

I teamed them up with the UNDER MY UMBRELLA STAMP SET and coordinating UMBRELLA BUILDER PUNCH … and … the PLEASED AS PUNCH DSP from the Coordination Product Release.

SO CUTE!

This card was so much fun to make … and super easy!

Thanks for dropping by … happy stamping!
