It may be nearly Christmas but that's not the only reason I'm crafting. In my family there's quite a few birthdays in December and several of them are right around the 25th. As the years have gone on I've discovered more and more people for whom the same is true. So it seemed only right that I intersperse my Christmas projects with birthday ones. That doesn't mean I have to put away my 'Christmas' stamp sets though. Today's project was created using the retiring Delivering Cheer Stamp Set ... VIEW POST
Chick Lovers Here’s Two Ideas In One!
After my 24 hour card making marathon over the weekend I sat down to make a quick gift tag today. This idea using the Hey Birthday Chick Stamp Set and coordinating Birthday Chick Dies came together really easily.

Another Puzzling Chicken Question
Forget about why the chicken crossed the road, why did she tie a balloon to her tail? I mean chickens can already fly, sort of.

CHICKEN COLOURS I began my bookmark as always with a 2" x 5-1/2" strip of card, this time in Thick Whisper White. Then I shaped the top and added the hole at the same time using the Delightful Tag Topper Punch. Next, from the Hey Birthday Chick Stamp ... VIEW POST
