More Over the Hill Items

Hi, everyone!  I just thought I'd post some projects I worked on recently for a client.  She liked my Over the Hill stuff, but wanted a cake topper instead of cupcake toppers and a banner.  Eeek!  I'd never made a banner before, but I had been dying to give it a try.  So, here are the goods:

  Here's the cake topper.  All of these cuts came from Life's a Party.  I added some circles behind "The Big 4-0" so it would show up better.

I can't remember where I got these cuts...the scalloped and rounded squares are from Gypsy Wanderings, maybe?  I think the letters are from Birthday Bash.  I think my little banner turned out cute...and it was a lot of fun to make! :o)  I can't wait to make another one!

I hope you'll stop by again this weekend.  Celebrate the Occasion is hosting a Pool Party Blog Hop.  I hope you'll stop by to see what all of the talented Design Team members have to show you.

Thanks for stopping by today!



Tacky Tuesday Whale Card

Here's the card I made for Tacky Tuesday's Challenge #2.  For this challenge, we had to use the whale from Create a Critter and the word "whale" somewhere on the front of the card.  Here it is:

I used my Gypsy to layout the card.  I cut the little water spout off of the little whale and replaced it with a party hat from Birthday Bash.  The gifts are from Once Upon a Princess.  The card base is also from Birthday Bash, and the ovals are from Gypsy Wanderings .  Again, all of the patterned paper is from Die Cuts With a View's Citrus Stack (I'm really lovin' that one!).  The sentiment is computer generated.  I added some brads for the whale's eys and a little ribbon, and my WHALEY cute birthday card was all done.  I hope you like it!  Thanks for visiting! 

BTW...I really LOVE to read your comments.  :o)

Bananas 4 You!

My Pink Stamper is having her first blog hop.  I had a great time checking out all of the awesome projects her design team came up with.  The great thing about her blog hop is that we get to play along!  So, here's my submission:

Front of Card

 Inside

I designed this card with my Gypsy.  I got the stamp shaped background from Gypsy Wanderings and welded them together to create a card.  The backgrounds were also cut from Gypsy Wanderings, and the ric-rac border was cut from Give a Hoot.  The little monkey, heart balloon, and inside sentiment are all from Create a Critter.  And, of course, the bananas 4 you came from My Pink Stamper's Punnylicious stamp set.  I added some ribbon and stitching lines, and my card was all done.  I hope you like it!  :o)
