Creation Station – Cute Critters

February 7, 2021 by Mikaela Titheridge 7 Comments

Welcome to the Creation Station Blog Hop where this month we’ve been designing with Cute Critters. Arrived here from Antoinette’s blog then you’ll have seen the cute critters she chose to work with.

The Creation Station Design Team and Artisan Design Team Member 2019, Mikaela Titheridge, UK Independent Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator, The Crafty oINK Pen. Supplies available through my online store 24/7

So many Critters to choose from, it was hard to decide. Well hopefully I’ve Snailed it … forgive me, I couldn’t resist that. Yes, the Snailed it stamp set was my choice for this blog hop and a Tri Fold Birthday card.

I love this little fellow. I’ve coloured him in soft tones and bright but here I chose deeper, perhaps more masculine colours.

Tri Fold Card

I wanted something a little different so pulled in the dies from my So Much Happy Bundle to die cut the word happy. My only regret is that I stamped the word Birthday before positioning the snail. It would have perhaps looked better if it were sat right behind him on the ground, as if his trail.

I coloured the snail with our Alcohol Blends Pens and adhered him to the front Panel using Dimensionals. Adhering each panel to a back panel, allowed me to change up the colours.

Flip open the front panel to reveal the central panel and one where some of the balloons from the front are adhered. Created to look a little like a night sky the Snail is heading off to the party, head down at full speed. He only wants to be fashionably late.

You can create the twinkling stars that you see here by the flicking action of a Wink of Stella.

Open the card fully to reveal the central part where you can write your message and yet more balloons.

This cute critter looks so happy to have arrived but its now time to hand over that gift parcel from his back.

Gift Packaging

Two coordinating gift boxes made from cardstock and Designer Series Paper, I tied together with Mossy Meadow Breaded Linen. The tag was created to pull the entire colour scheme and theme together. The parcel is ready for opening and the party ready to begin … but which critters are going to be joining him?

Take a look at my dear friend Kathy Kartak’s  blog, who’s next up to see which little critters he’ll be partying the night away with.

Thanks for hopping by today, enjoy the rest of the hop. I bet you never knew these parties existed in your back yard at night did you?

    I REALLY LOVE THE COLOR COMBINATION IN THESE FUN PROJECTS. I’VE SEEN YOU CREATE THE BRUSH TECHNIQUE ON THE CARD ON ONE OF YOUR LIVES AND IT’S TERRIFIC. I REALLY LOVE THE STACKED BOXES TOO.

    Oh, my, goodness–the story!!! such a wonderful way to create a story with a card and gift boxes. I squealed out loud, “the gift boxes off his back!” as soon as I scrolled down the page and saw them. Delightful, wonderful projects!

It's Secret Santa time and for the Artisan Design It's Secret Santa time and for the Artisan Design Team 2023, they're holding a Secret Santa CASE. 

Each provided with a name of one of our fellow Team members and requested to go back through their year's Artisan Assignments, we had to select just one to CASE. To CASE is to Copy and Share Everything, putting our twist on the inspiration. 

I had the fabulous @autour.du.papier to CASE and chose to use the Joy of Christmas Bundle to case her Corporate post from March 2023, which you can see by swiping left. 

If you'd like to see more of our Secret Santa CASEs, then firstly head over to see what @stampin_met_monique

Spilling onto the dining room table and the lack of storage, all came at a time when I decided to clip my wings and take voluntary redundancy from an almost 20 year flying career. 

My Redundancy money would help fund the exciting chapter that awaited me. The construction of the Summerhouse. 

Built on the land of a former Pig Farm, The Crafty oINK Pen was born. 

An exciting few weeks as the build came together. Soon the summerhouse would be filled with fun and laughter and plenty of creativity. It’s seen a few changes over the years as I added to improve storage and I’ve shared that time with many both in person and virtually. It’s been a wonderful space to design in and I’ll cherish those years with fondly but change can be exciting … 

Follow to see what changes are in store and help me as I build a new future and one that I’m excited about.
