Color Throwdown Challenge 109 Card

I love doing card challenges, but find I never get much time anymore. I've had this colour challenge open in my browser for almost a week before I finally sat down and did it. I loved the colour combo.

Here is my submission:

Preparations and New Products

We've been so busy lately with stocking up for upcoming fall/Christmas shows and with acting on new designs we've had in our heads. Seems we barely sleep a lot of the time!

We've got lots of new products that will listed soon. Many adult products.. and also new products for the kiddos. I'm so excited about them!

In October we have a session planned with a local photographer. She has given us a few sets of photos already... here is just a few of them.





If you are local in Southern Alberta, Tammy is an amazing children's and family photographer. You can check out her site at Tammy Thomsen Photography

Watch for updates on new product lines here. Hopefully within a couple days!

New Monkey Hat!

We just launched our new monkey hat, to add to our growing list of creatur hats.



There are several customizable options for these hats.... we can simply add a flower:



We can change the inner ear colour, edging and add a flower:





And we can make it in any size to fit newborns all the way to adults.

Here is a couple photos of my daughter modelling one:







I LOVE the long braided tassles on this one. So cute!

It is perfect for any little monkey in your life... boy or girl!

It is now available for purchase in our Esty shop:

A New Card

I've been so busy creating, I haven't been blogging.

Since I've been doing a lot more papercrafting lately, I thought I would start participating in some sketch challenges etc.

This challenge was given by Jitterbuggin' Challenge

Entitled 'Born To Be Wild'.

Here is my take on the sketch:








I really like how it turned out. I used two cricut cartridges: Animal Kingdom and Plantin Schoolbook.

Postponed

It seems we always have trouble with byhand.me on Friday/Saturdays... so I have finally made the decision to change the day of it... maybe on Mondays.

In the meantime... we've been busy listing new products like crazy, so I will be updating here with many new things as they come.

One item that is NEW is our snack bag sets! I'm really excited about these. We have been selling them since December/January, but they have been selling before we even manage to list them! We finally have gotten all our friends and family covered, and os are now getting them listed in our shop!



These bags are fantastic for adults and kids school and work lunches, or for travelling. They come as a set or idividually.

A set contains 3 in the following sizes:

Small 4" x 7" (10cm x 18cm)
Medium 6.5" x 7" (16.5cm x 18cm)
Large 8" x 7" (20.5cm x 18cm)

Sizing is approximate, and may vary slightly with each set.

The exterior of these bags is a fun cotton print, while the inside is a wipeable nylon. The nylon allows for you to transport items that might have a bit of moisture. I have used them for grapes, and orange slices without leakage. Although not waterproof, they do contain moist moisture.



To care for your bags.. you can just invert them and wipe clean... or toss them in the washing machine alone or with a load of clothing. If needed, they can be ironed on low-medium heat.

The velcro closure goes the entire width of the opening to keep all goodies contained.

Great for road trips with kids, in the diaper bag, in the lunch box.

Also can be used to hold crayons, small toys, etc when on the go.

Check out our current selection in the SHOP.

We can make them in any print, so if you don't see what you'd like, please feel free to contact us for fabric choices.. or with a specific request!
