Pop Up Card

Make It Monday #335: Pop Up Slider Cards

hosted by BetsyVeldman 

is a good one!

 stamps: Papertrey Ink The Sweet Life flowers/Valentine Pin-Ups fox/Half & Half sentiment

 I combined several sets for my card.

When Betsy put legs on the pumpkin, I decided I would try the Valentine Pin Ups set.

 The characters are so cute~I wanted to bring one out for another season!

 I'll be honest...I went through at least six mechanisms until I admitted the ears needed cut off.

It helped TONS.

Don't be intimidated~

if I could do it, anyone can ;).

Mind Your Mummy

This stamp set was clearancing out and I'm glad I snagged it in time!

 

So many disappearing sets in cyberland that I missed;  I have regrets. :(

Just sayin.

 However this? This was a win. :)

 

 

It's the season to ink him up.

stamps: A Jillian Vance Design Happy (Owl) oween  dies: Tuesday Morning Bubbles on the Border bubbles, Memory Box Pinpoint Main Street Tag, My Favorite Things Gift Card Grooves

Friends Don't Let Friends

Pinatas make me happy. :)

I've seen so many cute shapes, it makes me want to throw a party. 

stamps: My Favorite Things Anything but Basic Birthday Wishes/Sketchy Flowers wonky circle  dies: My Favorite Things Pinata, Avery Elle Wonky Stitches

Have you ever witnessed a pinata SNAP off the string?!

Ummmm utter chaos and kids piling on to punch out the candy is what I've observed.

There's zero hope of hanging it back up.

Just stand back or you'll get hurt. ;)

The following sketch is at My Favorite Things 

Wednesday Sketch Challenge #401

The wonky circle from Sketchy Flowers and the fun sentiment from Anything but Basic Birthday Wishes were stamped on.
