Hippo Birthday :)
I can't believe it… my little baby girl turns 2 today. Time has FLOWN by.
So I thought I'd share her card with you. She loves hippos (or happooos as she calls them), so this cut file by Hero Arts was the obvious choice. Some Calico Shine Mister Hueys and wiggle eyes were all I wanted to give him a bit of shimmer and fun.
Love the shimmer of Calico Shine...
Right - off to eat cake and have fun. :)
Have a great day.

Washi Fun...
So last night I had a chance to play with this FAB pack of Washi tape by Kelly Purkey, exclusive to Simon Says Stamp. You can buy these as a cool pack, or separately. I just LOVE the colours. They'd be fab tapes for Christmas projects, but I needed a stash of birthday cards, so I grabbed a selection of dies and stamps and went to town. :)
First, a girly birthday card featuring the Teal Polka Dot Washi. Teal and pink are a fab match, so I used my Washi to create some background paper. I added a die cut Pauline Butterfly which I covered in Rock Candy glitter and a sentiment from THIS stamp set.
Lots of subtle sparkle...
Next, a card for my friend's little boy who is soon to turn 5. I used the Numbers Washi here. I taped a strip to some white card then trimmed it down and adhered it to my patterned paper. The woodgrain geotag highlights his new age. I added a Jumbo Jet die cut too and customised my sentiment with THIS Clearly Besotted Alphabet set.
Maybe this is a bit of a grown up card for a 5 year old…
And finally, another masculine card. This one is inspired by our traditional Red Arrow jet planes that do awesome air displays at big events in the UK. They used to practice their displays at the place we went on holiday every year, so they are very special to me. :)
Anyway, I used the Jumbo Jets again, die cutting the planes from some of the Red Diamond Washi.
Very simple card… but lovely and bright. :)
And that's it for today.
I hope you enjoyed my wash cards. Kelly's Washi tape is gorgeous quality - thick and easy to apply. You can barely see the joins!
Right - off for a nap. My little one has decided she no longer wants to sleep much at night and is up for hours at a time. I think she's getting me ready for the new arrival next month!!
Eeeek. One month today!!!!! I am so excited.

Reindeer Gift Tags
So I had a project over at Hero Arts yesterday. A fun one. :) Did you see it?
These cute reindeer tags were so super easy to make - just a cute Silhouette cut file (AND this Baby Reindeer is on sale for $0.50!), some cardstock and a few ribbon scraps, wiggle eyes and gemstones and you have a batch of unique tags in no time.
I added a few extras to some of the tags too…
And then I put one on a card. Because… why not? :)
You can see full instructions and supplies HERE.
Happy weekend,
