Little ninjas

Hello lovely people,

I was rifling through my box of 'not yet used' stash and spotted these little ninjas that looked like they could do with an inking, so I popped them on my Dies to Die For DT card for this week.

These guys just make me smile...cutest ninjas ever?!

Top tip...don't forget to buy the matching dies for character stamps because otherwise you end up fussy cutting three ninjas...*sigh*

It was so simple to layer up different coloured panels behind the Blueprints die and I love how it gives a cartoon vibe to the design.

Dino party!

Hello lovely people,

Just popping in with my Dies to Die For DT card and there's a party happening today...a dinosaur party!

I created a very slightly 3D scene for my dinosaurs but not too 3D so it can still go in the post as a standard letter!

How adorable are these dinos in their party hats?!

Eek! It's your birthday!

Hello lovely people,

Apologies for the lack of card last week but I was off skiing in the French Alps with friends and family, including taking my niece and nephew for the first time.  I'm happy to report that we did loads of skiing, there were no injuries, the weather was sunny and the kids loved it :-)

One great thing about coming home is being back at my craft desk and for this week's Dies to Die For DT card I was desperate to have a play with some rather cute mice that fell in my basket last month!

Polka dots, stripy bunting and an adorable mouse in a box...what more could you want for a birthday card?!

I love how happy this mouse looks :-)

It reminds me of the time that I came home from work one day and Dr. Hubby was hiding in a box (a very large box).  I went all round the house trying to figure out where he was and it took me a looooong time to realise he was in the huge box in our lounge!  So maybe that backfired a bit on him as he was in there for quite a while - lol!
