Mini snowman for Winter Wonderland Challenge

Hello Ai fans!

Today I'm sharing my card for the Art Impressions Winter Wonderland Challenge.

This adorable little guy is called Snowman and Penguin Set (Sku#4508).

It's part of the mini front and backs line.

I haven't order the matching dies yet but I will soon.  Fussy cutting is no fun when you KNOW there's a die out there that would do the same work in seconds flat.

Here's the inside where you can see the back of this cutie!

The set also comes with this sweet verse...

Copics used:

C00, C1, C5, B23, B39, YG03, W3

AiDT Reunion Blog Hop + New Spinners Release! Ho Ho Ho!!

Hello Ai fans!

Today is another exciting day over at Art Impressions! 

They've released several new spinners!

You should have arrived here from Piali's blog.

On my card I've used the new  Santa Spinner (Sku#4678) and Santa Spinner Dies (Sku#4697).

I've also used some Mini Front and Backs on my card.

Elf & Reindeer Set (Sku#4507) and Elf & Reindeer Mini Dies (Sku#4542)

Rather than a card I decided to make a little Christmas display scene.  The bamboo dowel can be removed to it can fold flat to mail or for storage.  I know that my kids would have LOVED spinning this Santa when they were little.

Monkey gift card holder from Art Impressions

Hello Ai fans!

Today I'm sharing a gift card holder with you.

I had a clear case from one of my kids iPods lying around so I decided to repurpose it.

I used the adorable  Owl & Monkey Mini Set (Sku#4405)

from the mini Front & Backs line.

I decorated the inside as well as the front.  You can see the backside of the monkey here.

 The Congratulations verse is from Hats Off Set (Sku#4289).

I think this fun set makes such a cute gift and it's perfect for a girl or a boy!

My "little monkey" phrase was computer generated.
