Alexander turns One


A few days ago I shared a card I made for a little girl turning one. This is another, for a wee man, Alexander. His party invitation had a koala and gum trees on it, and as I thought about it, it seemed to me like Animal Outing might be the answer.



As I rummaged in my supplies, I discovered that I had some of the DSP left, which came out at the time this set was introduced. Of course, it never lasts for more than 12 months if it is in an Annual Catalogue, and an even shorter length of time in the Holiday or Occasions catalogues. 





Paper Trimmer
Item: 152392 | $44.00 aud/$53.00 nzd

  • Point on cutting handle for precise measuring.
  • Right-side grid for cutting thin strips.

I have some really good news for you too. Today, 1st November, the NEW Stampin' Trimmer can be ordered by customers. There is a link straight to the item in my online shop, or get in touch to order directly through me.



The absolute joy of this paper is that some of the animal images can be die cut from a sheet of paper, with Animal Friends dies, and you don't have to colour them. With the short time-frame I had, that was a blessing. Of course, you can achieve a similar result by using watercolor pencils or Stampin' Blends to colour. I actually made two versions, so my daughter-in-law could pick her preference, which ended up being the Z-card. I put the standard card into the basket I sell at work, markets etc.



I decided that I'd best add a panel on the rear of the card to write on, as I'd used the gorgeous DSP (patterned paper) to cover all the inside panels! 

I'd love you to choose my online shop to purchase from, and use the Host Code when asked at check out, & I will send you a gift, along with a handmade card. The items listed below were used in my projects above, and link to that item in my online shop.
