Jen over at Little C's Birthday goodies

My friend Jen over at Little C's had her 21st birthday yesterday! I made her this little purse from the Papertrey site. Filled it with goodies and am also giving her a matching umbrella (you know how much it rains here). Hope she likes it!

Birthday Cards

My nephew is turning two in early March. He just loves his dinosaurs. I used a Whipper Snapper Design stamp for the Dinosaur and some DSP from Papertrey.



At SU Regionals, one of the demonstrators showed us how to make a pop-up card. I have always wanted to know how to make one of these and didn't realize how easy it was. I made this gift ensemble for my dear friend Nisan's birthday.





Inside of the pop-up card. Enjoy and aloha!

Swap card for SU Regionals

SU is having their Regionals here in Honolulu on the 21st of this month and I can't wait! It is going to be stamping all day! How fun is that! So, I made 40 of these swaps to swap with people. I am so nervous...afraid to be rejected by my fellow swappers, lol.

So I made this card using my new favorite, 5th Avenue Floral Stamp Set, Chocolate Chip, Kiwi Kiss and Regal Rose ink. Also used my new eyelet border. Hope people will want to swap with me, lol!

My Monthly Aloha Rak!

My Monthly Aloha Rak Partner is Erin and she sent me the cutest Valentine's rak! The card has a bunch of little heart all over it! Thanks Erin for the wonderful rak!

Valentine's Day Jars

Found these little jars and decided to make little Valentine's Day goodies for a couple of my good friends.



Stuffed them with See's Chocolate hearts, stamps, Stickles and some V Day Ribbon.

more birthday cards!

This Tilda is for Joy's 21st birthday, which was on the 7th. Her favorite color is purple, so I tried to incorporate that into the color scheme.



This Anya Geisha was for Enjoli's birthday, which was on the 4th. Her favorite color is green, so I used a designer paper that had some green in it and paper pieced the geisha's kimono.

Rik-raks!

Met my bff (Joy of course) for her birthday celebration last night and she had all of these raks for me (some from her and one from Enjoli). Crazy, yeah, because it is her birthday and her she is giving me stuff! Don't forget to head over to her blog today and wish her happy birthday!

Enjoli sent this via Joy to me. I love this Tilda card and all the details! So cute!



Here is the little acrylic box that she decorated using my favorite Hello Kitty! I love it!



All the goodies stuffed inside! Thanks Enjoli, you are the sweetest!



Here is the cutest Hello Kitty Head made with the cricut by my bff! Isn't this the cutest idea! It was stuffed with all kinds of goodies! Thanks Joy! Hope you had lots of fun last night and Happy Birthday!



The goodies on the inside, too many to show!



Some Valentine's paper from her too...
