Hog Heaven Shaker Card + Cute Pig Card Printable + Video

I'm in hog heaven!  Seriously, just spent the weekend with my daughter.  Couldn't be better (well, maybe when Louisa gets here)!  

I'm tickled pink, too (of course).  This is a darling printable.   Download it below.

The back is even cute!  And it's as easy as Print,Cut,Fold.

Oh, my!  I love this stamp set!  Such sweet little pigs and sentiments. 

I've got a video showing how to put this card together.  Including extending the fence to fit the tag and how to ink the clouds and color the fence and pig.  Here it is:

Dropbox seems to work differently for different people.  When image appears, wait for a moment and a download button will appear in the top right corner.  If download button, does not appear, right click on image and save as.

Hope you are in Hog Heaven or at least Tickled Pink!  Have a fabulous week!

Kids Thank You at The Hybrid Chick

How was your weekend?  It was absolutely beautiful here.  Lots of sun, warm temperatures, but still cool enough to sleep great at night.  Monday is my day to post at The Hybrid Chick.  This time I put together a darling Kids Thank You Cards kit.  Super easy to do with the really cute digital kits from The Digi Chick.

The box holds lots of goodies for kids to put together their own cards.   All the pieces are held in chevron bags, so that they can be creative.  Here are a couple of the cards I put together using the elements in the Kids kit:

What a fun way for kids to say Thank You!  Check out The Hybrid Chick blog for all the supplies, more pictures and the directions for putting together this sweet little kit.

The Cutting Cafe Design Team

How exciting! I checked my e-mail before going to sleep last night and got the wonderful news that I've been chosen by Regina Easter for The Cutting Cafe Design Team! Check out the blinkie in my side bar. I'll be posting creations made with her wonderful templates. You might remember a couple of her templates that I've already used: the strawberry card and the duck shape I used for the pull toy.

In honor of choosing her new design team members, Regina is having a two for one special at The Cutting Cafe. Today until midnight, Monday, June 28th, for every set purchased you can get another of equal or lesser value free - no limit! When placing an order, don't pay for the free set(s), just make a list in the note section of Paypal. When you go to The Cutting Cafe, you can see a complete list of the design team members. I'm very honored to be working along side them. I can't wait to use more of her templates and share them with you!


Last weekend was my great aunt Jane's 75th birthday party hosted by her daughters, Karen and Dena. It was so nice to see them and my cousins, Joy and Kathy. We were asked to bring a memory page to be placed in a book. My mom and Jane used to make hollyhock dolls together, so this is the memory page we brought for the book:

My mom found this postcard and sent it to me. It's perfect!

The following two cards were designed for my aunt Jane to give to her daughters as Thank You cards. They are made postcard style instead of opening. I used vintage crate labels and tried to keep them somewhat alike, while using very different materials.

Happy Birthday, Aunt Jane!

Two sweet Girls

Hope everyone has had a great weekend! I'm finished with almost all the Halloween special orders, except for a couple of requests just made. These two cards were made a little while ago.

You already know I love the vintage images, but I must also love the combination of pink and blue. Both of these cards make me happy. When a card gets to the point that I feel happy when I look at, I know that it's finished. It's also a little hard to let go of it! One of the best compliments I've had lately was that when my cards are bought to give to someone else, it's a little hard to let go of them!
