I’ve been having a Monster time …

January 9, 2014 by Mikaela Titheridge Leave a Comment

It’s that time of year, when we prepare for our son’s Birthday and this year what better theme for a 3 year old boy than Monsters! 

I’ve seen many a themed card made using the Stampin’ Up! Circle Framelits and decided that I would have an attempt at a character card myself and here is the little monster that I managed to create … isn’t he cute!

The left eye, which looks slightly different on each side, looks like it wobbles as you open it – now how much fun would that be for a 3 year old? … Not scary at all !!

He is a very lucky little boy, who already have an abundance of gifts awaiting, so I decided to make coordinating Thank You cards in preparation, using the Retired Make a Monster Stamp Set. I just love this set and know of a certain little boy who in time will love creating various monsters of his own too. 

The paper plates, napkins and paper cups that we as a family will be using to enjoy his Birthday Cake, formed  the inspiration for this card set and I can’t wait to share it all with him. 

Well, before the little monster wakes, I’d better get on with creating my next project.

Happy Crafting

Do you like FREE Products? Then you're going to lo Do you like FREE Products? Then you're going to love Sale-a-Bration 2021 and this Oh So Ombre Paper. 

The Black contrast of Simply Succulents looks incredible as an overlay to the Oh So Ombre Papers. I so enjoyed creating these, even if it created rather a mess on the floor of all the bits. These cards were created to send out to a few people who have been on my mind throughout the recent announcement of Lockdown. Wanting to add a little shimmer, I pulled in a touch of Black Glimmer Paper that has just retired but this could easily be switched up with some ribbon or a flash of something else. 

These were designed as part of the new Stamping Inkspiration Blog Hop that went live last night. We were sharing Something New.
